and this time I am targeting pomp,over-hyped, filthy-rich& made-famous weddings in India.
Not too long after we could digest an Arun Nayar-Elizabeth Hurley 2nd or 3rd knot this March, whatever you want to look at it as, the nation is filling the papers, TV screens and news websites, with the yet another hyped Abhishek Bachchan-Aishwarya Rai wedding!
Where the plus 40 year old couple, could not get enough of 1 wedding, had another followed by the hyped arrangements and lavish spending...after which to keep the wedding alive, there were series of controversial stories such as inapropriate behaviour, mockery to religion, dis respect to parents and so on...
On the other end,the Bollywood wedding had a different opening - the prior weddings were botany based, the "real" wedding is coming up sometime soon(didnt bother with the details). I was told millions of rupees are being spent on this union and there are on-the-face controversy news, about who got invited and who didn't!!
The way I see it, wedding should not be given so much importance , what comes after is where the focus should be- be it an investment of time/money. How many successfully bonded rich,famous couples have we seen??
If the above mentioned rich and famous have become "Gods" of the society, how come they dont give back anything to this society? They are having wedding in the same nation where people dont get even a one-time meal - can't they provide one meal to the less privileged when celebrating with such abundancy? If they put their mind into selfless thinking- they could educate hundreds and bring welfare thus strengthening the country.....but ofcourse, I am asking too much, who am I to speak ?
and so yet again the stories continues... as the rich gets richer and the poor, poorer...
