An industry that has thrived on labelling people, lampooning communities, reinforcing stereotypes, & lecturing the world, is now wincing & whining because someone did the same to them? Wah #Bollywood

Bring out the popcorn already!
Think it's important that #Bollywood sue media people for slander. It's important to prove to the public that:
There's no drug use in the industry.
There's no casting couch or sleaze,or discrimination against women.
There's no dirty money.
There's no nepotism

More power to them
Waisey, would love to know which Daddy-Big-Pockets has cracked the whip, & asked the #Bollywood lot to go to court.
From top to bottom,they've all toed the line like ba-ba-lambs. That's some clout!

Asking again: On what basis is a therapist taking to media,or leaking client details? Confidentiality is valid even after death . And only a court can ask for client records.

Therapists talking in public,or media leaking reports is perverse & unethical. Absolutely appalling. 1/n
Reaching out during emotional distress is v.hard for people as 1/ there’s stigma 2/few understand the gravity of mental health issues 3/there is fear about confidentiality breaches.
Irresponsible media coverage just made it harder for people to seek help #SushantCase 2/n
Media folks who are brazenly exploiting the alleged mental health issues of a dead man for TRPs should pray that your loved ones never have to deal with mental health issues in this country. YOU ghouls just made it ok for a therapist to breach a sacred contract #SushantCase 3/n

Many know of #Assam tea, muga silk, the one horned rhino & bihu. Not many know of the state's historical heritage. Last month I set out to explore the fascinating area around #Sivasagar, the seat of the Ahom dynasty that ruled Assam for over 600 years. 1/n
Our 1st stop was at #RangGhar -the royal pavilion for nobility to watch sports/cultural activities.Built in the 18th century,its bricks were cemented with a mix of local sticky rice,pulses,egg shells etc.Note the roof shaped like an inverted boat 2/n
Next was #TalatalGhar or royal place. It has 4 floors above & 3 below ground level,with a series of tunnels to confuse the enemy.Wooden structures of the palace didn’t survive but u can see the shrines to Shiva & ancestors,& maternity wing etc 3/n
