Sex, lies & video-on-mute

NDTV

Little else may bring out moments of collective hypocrisy-hysteria like our attitudes to matters of the powerful and the sexual. In other current words, politicians or porn. Are parts of this nation being remarkably consistent in the hysteria and the hype?

India banned the most recent adapatation of  Stieg Larsson's The Girl with the Dragon tattoo, a film for its adult scenes of rape and torture. Now it is also keen to go ahead in the latest porngate and ban cameras of private channels inside the Soudha or State Assembly. So shooting the messenger, what in this case has arguably not come across as an irresponsible media moment ?With what rationale? So the MLAs should not feel watched while at work ? Who will catch the shirk? The state's own cameras? A case of cracking down on the cameras and the extracurricular passions of members representing the people of Karnataka ? What do you think?And this may have opened the vault of political hypocrisy but was this the worst pornographic sex on the sly type scandal in India? See this next video and decide. And in the video after that Prasoon Joshi probably hits the nail on the head about audiences while actually talking about Indian cinema here.He says what Indians are is very very confused.

    Real Demoracy means Democracy to the people to live comfortably. Now, here, There is enough democracy to Gundas, Politicians and who has money power. I think, it becomes important for a change in the legal, political systems. Politicians should have qualifications.

    Well, we voted this government to power with their India Shining slogan. Now we realise it was only 'shoe shining', 'moon shining', 'gold mine shining;.. anything but India shining.... This we must remember is the land of Yedi-lilies - pure-off-white. Can we expect better from the congress? Not a chance. Grin and bear it bhaiyeeyon or behenon, worse is yet to come.

    In our country 99.9% of Politicians are FRAUD. Everybody should be PUNISHED without mercy. Like arab countries.

      Problem is we all Indians are alike (devoid of honesty, grace and responsibility as a citizen). Check out a well dressed guy driving (usually like a ruffian) in a zany car and spitting out of window, urinating at roadsides, throwing garbage in the streets. We will do anything (including unfair and illegal means) to go ahead of others. These insects (we call them POLITICIANS) are mirroring what we are ourselves.
