We Are Just Like That

Hum to bhaiyya aise hee hain !
From putting someone on a pedestal one day, to pulling the carpet from under his feet the very next day, we are a nation of billion hyperactive & hyperbolic souls. Passionate and provocative we give vent to our emotions in high decibels. It has a purgative effect on us. We celebrate,we bemoan, we mourn everything --together. Nothing in private or isolation. Indians are by nature vocal and expressive. Not the stiff upper lip for us. Cricket and bollywood are sacred to us and we go ballistic at the highs and lows concerning these two. India's loss in world cup semi final can not be expected to be digested coolly n sophisticatedly. While blaming extraneous diversions for a top batsman's dismal performance is crude and unfair but then gossip was never meant to be refined. With angry birds and crows dissecting ad nauseum the merit and otherwise of AIB roast, BBC  documentary or trolls on Anushka Sharma, things are getting uptight. The conservatives are heating up the tirade against the 'bindaas junta' hellbent upon stirring a hornet's nest by its shenanigans. Puritans take a chill pill..! ITS all baseless and harmless... A few days and all will be forgotten. Wiped away from the fickle public memory. Better stuff awaits your precious time and attention. Give it there!
