BREAKING NEWS: Bollywood biggies come out to vote. Shahrukh Khan [flies down from South Africa, commendable, but I think it had more to do with his team’s losing spree or that wedding nobody is supposed to know about], the Bachchan family comes out in full force [with all of them wearing the same colour!], Amir Khan, John Abraham , Karan Johar, Sonam Kapoor, Vidya Balan and a few others from the paltan cast their VOTE!!!! And that is somehow remarkable; shouldn’t this go down as one of the “YOU-HAFTA-KNOW-ABOUT-THIS-DAY” days in Indian history?
Big-fucking-deal! Aren’t they as much citizens of this country as the rest of us, less mortals, are? Isn’t it a primary duty of everyone to cast their vote? Then why the tamasha? Oh right, because they have the power to influence us. They appear in advertisements and promotional/inspirational videos and encourage us to vote. They lead us by example. Is that why Mumbai, after all the blood drawing against the politicians after 26/11 saw a turn out of around 43%? Is that why Mumbai registered a turn out 4% lesser than the last elections? Methinks, there’s something wrong with the picture.
Current Mood: Annoyed :x
Current Music: listening to good ol’ pop mujjic!
