SUBAH SUBAH ---- DIMAAG KA DAHI……………
You know how you get up on the right side of your bed, are feeling wonderful, think its gonna be a damn beautiful day and suddenly, your big toe hits the edge of the bed and starts bleeding. You run to the tap, leaving a bloody trail behind, but there’s no water from the faucet; neither is there any in the buckets. You run to find some cotton, but “yeah” its over. So, you grab the morning paper and push the nail back into its place and staunch the blood. Not that, this makes the paper any bloodier than it already was, when it got outta the printing press! Well, This didn’t happen to me, but something at par.
Morning Morning Dimaag ka dahi….I read the head lines of TOI.
HC bans adult films on Cable. In effect, no film with a U/A or A certificate can be telecasted on television!! That means even a kiddie film like Harry potter, which has probably less violence than 5 minutes of WWF can’t be shown on the screen. That means 3/4th of the movies shown on HBO, Star Movies will be barred. Or even if it does reach our screens, it will be at the censor boards discretion. Scissors will run havoc. That does not mean that we have been treated to violence, brutal dialogues and porn on screen till today. It just means that now every thing on TV is just for Kids, nothing for the adults. I think Television makers in INDIA who make TVs with child-lock should be banned too. They are not required. In act they would infuriate the adults. It’s like mocking a starving, desolate man with a tandoori chicken-leg piece!!This situation is so sad. I mean I can’t imagine a word except SAD. And the people who passed this as SADISTS. I am beginning to wonder - if this is a democracy, god help people under other regimes. For today, I am being told what to watch and when. For today, parents are being given no benefit of doubt. Yeah, parents have no control on their kids, it seems. Isn’t it the prerogative of a parent to bring up his/her child in the way he/she seems fit. But now the supreme government has become the Parent and cares of each and every child. Parents should go to court and tell them to pay for their children’s schooling aswell! For today, I am being seen as a culpable child and am easily drawn towards mayhem, nudity, sex and smoking. As if the statutory warning on the cigarette packet was not enough, on-screen smoking will be banned from JAN 1. Blessed is this nation of Hypocrites and imbeciles. Tomorrow, your seniors will be banned from smoking because they are your idols and you look up to them. Tomorrow, you will be told to smoke in the bathroom and not in front of your child. There would be surprise raids and if you were seen violating this, you would have to dress like a joker and entertain every child in the neighborhood, for the next 13 months. Yes, tomorrow is so beautiful. You wont be allowed to roam around in your city with a girl. If caught, clutching the hand of a girl in public, you would be slapped LIVE on Television and be converted into Thakur of Sholay. Probably the girl would be termed as a prostitute and would be raped by a policeman, Live.This would be seen as a lesson for all those who dare show their affection in public. Girls would be told, what to wear and when. Because in this country every man is seen as a libidinous being, who only wants one thing when he sees a girl and every girl is seen as a Prostitute if she is bold enough to show her navel. Slowly but surely, we will become Pakistan. Where only religious channels and channels for and with children will exist and girls would have to wear burkhas. Guys will have to wear those things that Horses wear on streets, so that we look just in the front and don’t turn left, right and center to cast our lecherous eyes on burkha laden girls. Yes, tomorrow is beautiful in INDIA. A democracy that was……….
