Politics fixed!

After Cricket fixing, Azharuddin is back in media; now about to join the next best career for him – Politics. Our politicians truly don't know their audience. In a cricket crazy country like ours, I think everyone hates Azharuddin. Why would they vote for him? Or may be they know their audience a little too well. How foolish we-the-people are!

    We all in our life compromise certain vaules. Azhar is the person who has said he suffered because he belonged to some community. Let him fight the elections and win it by his deeds and promises. I am a Big Fan of azhar as a cricketer. He might as well do many good things. A person cannot be bad forever. GoD Bless!!

    As a kid I was one of the biggest fans of Azharuddin and my room was filled with his posters at the time when Sachin was a much easier and popular choice. I went to Eden to see him bat live. He was a genius. But then he was tainted with match fixing and my idol worship stopped. I have no more fave cricketers now.

    It wasnt a surprise that he decided to join politics and the choice of his party. Whether he will be a good politician or not that only time will tell. But here in Hyderabad Azzu bhai as he is fondly called has a good fan following.(esp in Old city areas).He might be able to capitalise on that, but he would have lot linen washing to do.

    He is done wrong and suffered for it too(Missed playing his 100th Test, a milestone). Whether he is changed or not,I dont know but shouldnt everyone given a chance for redemption??

    @God007
    Stop bringing religion/caste into every other walks of life. He suffered because he fixed matches. FYI Ajay Jadeja Manoj Prabhakar were Hindus, Hansie Cronje was a Christian and they all had the same fate.

Sibal’s Super Solution

Congress is just too good at this. Can't solve the solution of providing quality education to everyone? Because that requires allowing private investment in education; that requires more institutes; more courses; more teachers; more infrastructure. So what is the solution? Let's just scrap the damn exam! That ought to reduce the stress!! What his foolish supporters do not understand is that it's not the exam that's causing the stress. It's the lack of opportunities available after the exam that's causing it. Seats in good colleges are only sufficient for the students with 95%+. It's a do or die situation. Anything less than 95% and u can say good bye to your dream colleges which in most likelihood would be handful of colleges across the country. I am not really opposing the grading system. But I just think there are bigger issues at hand that need immediate attention rather than this populist measure.

25 Random Things About Me

So I have been tagged Ani . And I need to list 25 random things about myself. It's funny that this happens just after I start the 'faboddity' section. So here it goes. Let me start with the one that you already know. I like grocery shopping more than shopping for clothes (I am a girl!) My world is black and white. Most of the times I can work out binary logic to everything. I don't like the grey areas. I hate conventions. I hate traditions for traditions sake. My favorite show during childhood was "I dream of Jeannie" and I almost believed that one day I might find a Jeannie of my own. My favorite blogger is Greatbong . My recent favorite movie is Gulaal. I am completely floored by its music. I am completely in love with Piyush Mishra. And I hate people who admire rubbish of a movie like Slumdog and can't appreciate an Indian movie like Gulaal. On a scale of Slumdog Oscar, Gulaal would win 100 oscars. I work out only to be able to eat fatty food free of gu...

What a ridiculous IDEA, Sirji!

I always thought that IDEA's television ad was irritating at some level. An IDEA can change your life. What relevance does it have with the product? What is so innovative about this service provider? Its public image is no more than a second fiddle to Airtel. The whole "what an IDEA sirji!" is even more irritating. And the fact that they use political revolution as the backdrop for selling a sim card can only be described as self delusion. As if their marketing concept was not irritating enough, their new ad harps on how socialist and poverty driven our economy is. There's a contactor who proposes to the Mantri (minister) to build a shopping mall in khet (agricultural land literally – but I guess they are referring to village as a whole). Here the IDEA man Abhishek Bachchan suggests that janta needs to be asked about their opinion. So he sends sms to all the janta (using IDEA!! Voila!!!) for their opinion. And as if to pacify the communists in India, all the poor fa...
