Highlights of a certain Tollywood actress' woke life:

Engaged to a rapist and terrorist accused and almost convicted in the infamous Park Street gangrape case. Helped the same man flee the country to escape being penalised for the crime.

Contd..
Went into a romantic relationship with a man belonging from a wealthy ass business family. Seven years later, married the same man in a greatly expensive 5-day destination wedding in Turkey.
Got the husband buy her a spacious 3BHK apartment in Ballygunge Place, the same being registered to her name. The man also helped her clear a few of her financial dues. He named the actress the director of a subsidiaries sister company to his family's existing company.
Also, ignoring constant insistence from the man, the actress refused to register their marriage in the court of law.

6 months into the marriage, the actress started shooting for a movie called SOS Kolkata with her co-actor Yash Dasgupta.
3 months into this she moved out of the husband's house. Taking a big amount of cash and all the jewellery she received from the man and her in-laws during and after their wedding.

Started living in the Ballygunge Place apartment bought and paid for by the husband.
Media announced that she was pregnant. The husband denied legitimacy of the child being his as they had been separated and never visited each other for over 8 months then.
A week ago, she gave birth to a baby boy. Named him Yishaan J Dasgupta, adding Debashish Dasgupta (Yash's formal name) as the father of the child in the birth certificate. Started making public appearances with the actor. Started sharing fan posts on Instagram and Twitter.
Nobody cares because LEAVE THE MOTHER ALONE. Because IT'S HER CHOICE TO TAKE A LOVER OUTSIDE OF MARRIAGE. Because IT'S OKAY IT'S THEIR LIFE THEIR CHOICES.

Because she's a female.
Had this been Nikhil Jain cheating on Nusrat Jahan, his life would have been miserable and he would want to run away. And you know what? None of that happened when she came out clearly admitting that she slept with a co-actor while being married. And that the child is his.
None of that happened. A man's life ruined is not a big deal. As long as the woman's dignity and character are defended at every cost. Even when the latter is at fault. The law in India doesn't look at adultery and infidelity in marriage as a criminal offence.
And that is just one of the many things that's wrong with this country.

When the devastating second wave hit India, he was rightly questioned for lack of preparedness and an approach that was unscientific. Being the leader of the government, his approach indeed caught the country off guard, and led to a humanitarian crisis.

Continuing with election rallies, festivals, lack of focus on sequencing, not paying heed to scientific advice for preventive measures further compounded the problem that the devastating delta variant posed.
This is what separates a good, strong and sensitive leader from one who isn't. He corrected the course very quickly. Realising the scale of catastrophe that hit India in the last part of April, he provided the leadership the country required.

THREAD:

"I go into the Upanishads to ask questions." - Niels Bohr

During our schooldays, we were taught about the extensive contributions of western scientists like Niels Bohr, who had come up with theories related to atomic structure, wave-particle concepts, etc.

cont'd..
However, one vital aspect which our school textbooks forgot to mention was that most of his research was deeply influenced by our Vedas & Upanishads!
Despite being born & brought up in a Chr!stian environment in Europe, Bohr had started showing interest in ancient Indian scriptures during his research as scientist from 1920s.

THREAD: #GaneshChaturthi

Why do we immerse Lord Ganesha idol into water after worshipping it?

- In India, for thousands of years Hindus have made idols and then immersed them in water. Many foreigners feel it is a strange thing to do.

Contd.. Image
Why is the God Ganesha decorated ceremoniously and worshipped lovingly for several days and then immersed in the sea, river, or lake? There is a beautiful concept behind this immersion.
The real secret of worship is in making an idol and then letting it disappear; giving a shape and form to the idol, and then letting it vanish onto the formless. It is all symbolic, the act of making an idol of Lord Ganesha, worshipping it, and then immersing it in water.

#VijayDiwas:

22 yrs ago, while our soldiers were risking their lives to safeguard our nation, the political class in India had witnessed 2 camps. One camp was the nationalist camp, with leaders like Modi who went the extra mile in meeting our soldiers & motivating them.

Contd..
Whereas on the other camp, it was the Kangressis who left no stone unturned in humiliating our own Army!!
Here is one quick example which shows the level to which kangress leaders could stoop down to: In one of the parliamentary sessions during the war, the Kangress party dismissed the whole efforts of our soldiers, and directly called it "BJP's war".

Thread: "Hinduized" Jesus

After successfully exploiting millions of helpless Hindus by harvesting them (i.e religious conversion in return for freebies like rice-bags), the missionaries are now setting their sights on the relatively well-off middle-class Hindus!

Contd...
As it's a well known fact that Hindus worship several Gods, these missionaries are desperately trying to convince Hindus that it would be a good idea to include a small photo of Jesus as well, usually in "Hinduized" form/avatar, and worship him along with other Hindu Gods.
That's usually the first step, and soon after the "Hinduized" (Hindu avatar) Jesus finds a place into a middle-class Hindu home, the missionaries, who would be in constant touch with those Hindus, will then step up to the next stage.

THEAD: Bollywood Whitewash

Javed Akhtar & Salim wrote scripts of 24 films from 1970 to 1982. Most of these films were crime-based stories on the underworld.

During this period, there were five dreaded criminals in Bombay - Haji Mastan, Yousuf, Karim Lala & Dawood etc.

Contd..
Police records show that 80 percent of the criminals in Mumbai were Muslims.

But you will be surprised to know that during the same time in Bombay, Javed Akhtar and Salim Javed wrote the story scripts of the 24 films, the villain of their scripts were never Muslim.
This shows Javed Akhtar's unmistakable bias to influence the thinking of the masses through the powerful medium of popular films.

The story related to the film Deewar written by Javed Akhtar is familiar.
