  • Seen Rakhi Sawant lately in the TV promos for the new reality show Rakhi Ka Swayamvar (began yesterday)? She’s got enough armoury in the guise of jewellery and make-up to prevent any red-blooded suitor getting too close and personal. Still, they’re gonna try and we’re gonna watch them and don’t believe those who sneer at such tabloid entertainment. It should be fun and she could be the making of NDTV Imagine. Imagine.

    Mixheal JacksonBy: G.Dwarakanath | 03-Jul-2009 Reply | Forward There was in the late 19th or early 20th century an educated inmate in an American lunatic asylum who once started wondering where the gods worshipped in ancient Greece, Italy, Egypt and other places and subsequently forgotten, had gone. He suddenly shouted "all of them are here in the asylum, taking regular morning walks etc." I felt that Jackson was one such ancient god who was for the last many decades strutting about the world making it one whole asylum. Devoted to classical Indian music from childhood, it was impossible for me to enjoy the noisy MJ music. It was asuric or Rakshasa music compared our own ennobling satvic or divine music. To say thus may not be in tune with the present intellectual style. The world loves the man (or ardhanari) who can just scream and make billions.
