Feels like ages since I have blogged. Surprisingly, in the last few weeks I had absolutely nothing popping up in my head worth enough to blog about. Its like you keep doing your daily duties but at the end of the day you feel like you have done absolutely nothing at all except spent your day facing against wall. That blank.

Anyways, a lot of the emptiness has cleared out. And guess what has assisted me in doing that? The Newspaper. Really, the news nowadays are something we can ponder upon for hours. My newspaper habits are like I begin reading it from the last page and go to first. I left reading the front headlines a few months after Osama Bin Laden & Sept 11 attacks episodes. Besides, the last pages seem to be more interesting than the headlines. Those days I used to grab the paper to see if he has been caught or not. But in vain. I have even stopped believing whether he ever existed. Or was it like a cartoon character given birth by the U.S. govt to play their tactical games? Debatable topic. Lets leave it for the moment.

I sat with my steaming cup of coffee to read the newspaper. And guess who I see on the last page (which gives the general news around the world) - I see our own Ms. Malika Sherawat wearing clothes made from a woman's handkercheif, hand in hand giving a big tight smackeroo to Jackie chan at the Cannes. I wont debate on the clothes since it depends on one's choice of comfortability. But I still think her choice of clothes were, what to say - Loud. I dont contemplate the idea of showcasing our culture by being draped in a saree with 'bindi' & 'gajara' but I will not contest the fact the there is some kind of sensuality which flows from a woman wearing a saree. In such cases, the best option is to wear neutral ensembles and carry a neutral behaviour which indirectly portrays that one is ready to listen if not accept the others' ideas.

I think wearing sexy outfits are good enough if complimented by the right attitude. Otherwise it looks plain bogus.
