Idiot box or box of utilities...

Ummm.... Its amazing to see what TV has done to the Indians....esp. "Ladies"... What magic has it created in their minds that they can easily shift their household work timings and mould it according to timings of their favourite TV serials... And these serials are only fictions which the people do not want to realize and wait for tomorrow's episode to see what will happen next.... And the worst part....hmm...the vamp in those daily soaps...they have made such an impression on the Indian viewers that they have started doubting other people in the neighbouring too.... All the 'Saas-bahu' serials have occupied their minds like a virus which is spread so deep in the minds of Indian women that no medicine can help now. One of the major reason for family clashes is some where due to these daily soaps where on screen family members fight amongst each other for property or money or something like this.
Is there any reason of why does these soaps shows extra marital affairs, 3-4 weddings of same woman or actor, murders of their own family members, playing conspiracies against your loved ones, or the worst... making dead people alive from no-where...? I mean is this some kind of a joke that is being played since more than a decade. Yes, due to these things, TV is said to be an idiot box! I mean how can a person have multiple surgeries..how can they afford it... It's so unrealistic. Worst still, they complete their bloody 200...300...700..1000..etc episodes and celebrate it..  To keep their viewers even more involved, now TV shows have started hosting their annual celebration in picturesque destinations, I mean it's all about money. Why can't they spend that surplus amount to the 1 who actually needs money. But, I guess this is the need of the hour for some who's favourite past time revolves around singing endlessly about twists and tales of the sitcoms wherever they go and who ever it might be.
In contradiction to this, yes! there are some episodes dedicated to the vast history and beautiful culture of India, which gives a message to respect what is the power and uniqueness of India, lesser, but slowly, people will be moving towards them so as to be close to the reality and shutting doors to impossible fiction-filled idiot box.

Women's Day~ article inspired from HT (8/3/15)

Dear 21st century people, for the sake of saying we have already demarcated women into 2 default sections, good woman and bad woman. A good woman is the one who does everything as said to be done and only speaks what is liked by the general audience whereas a bad woman is the one who feels free to use her right to freedom of speech and does only what she feels right and that might not be pleasant to the rest of the public. There are not one but n-number of different contextual facts wherein this clear distinguished category can be seen which is made by our so-called intellectual and free society. If a woman sneezes very loudly, we say how indecent is this; If a woman burps loudly, we say what an ill-natured lady; If she farts, then she's not even fit to socialize in the society. Just like a man has freedom to do anything on his will, why must women suffer. I'm not saying that girls must become rebels, but if they want to try something off-beat or even does some activity unknowingly, they are judged instantaneously by us.
On the auspicious day of Maha Shivratri, the women goes to them temple and worships Shiv Linga, but if she discusses sex openly she is said to be a bad girl, infact worst valued girl, why is this distinction made? She hesitates to speak out this word publicly
