No..thats not the name of a new music sensation or a TV Show. They are the initials of those 2 names who are dominating the headlines of Indian Press & TV Channels for the past 1 week and seriously don’t know this mania will continue for how many more days to come…
Yes… you guessed it right, the major event is the MARRIAGE OF “ASH & AB Jr” which has been hyped no less than a NATIONAL EVENT...Seeing the attention & importance given to this event, it would be no wonder if 20th April would be declared as a NATIONAL HOLIDAY, at least the working class will endure the pleasure of a looong weekend!!;) I hope this hype would end on 20th April & wouldn’t continue till the birth of their 1st baby..I really feel that latter can be a strong possibility!
Even though the marriage party has strictly declared it as a very Private event and is being very discreet about it..But our dear media people are working at their best, be it any news channel or paper..even the most minutest of details gathered from any tom, dick & harry, are being flashed from time to time, as if it’s a matter or life & death..I really can’t remember any event being received such huge coverage for days together be it the occurrence of chain of bomb blast in local trains in Mumbai some months ago or the 26th July fiasco for that sake! This proves that Abhishek & Aishwarya’s marriage is no less than a National event & surpasses any natural calamity or man created disaster..
Everyday newspaper is being filled by how simple and how environment friendly the marriage is going to be –No crackers, less number of invitees, less noise pollution & traffic jams..Thus making their marriage a DIVINE BOON to Mother Nature..
No hard feeling towards the BACHAN’s & RAIs, my best wishes are with them, but the question which flashes in my mind time again .. “Is this hype really worth the effort??” When the bride & bride grooms family has announced that they want the event to be a private affair, why can’t their wishes be respected for once..
Frankly, I can never imagine being so crazy about what my favourite star is wearing for the occasion, what’s the design of their wedding card, who will dance & who will not in their wedding who will apply mehndi or who will be the caterers…and the list goes on.. I wonder whether the news people were so inquisitive of these minute details even in their own marriage! Barring a few people who might be crazy to know how these starlets elope..Would a comman man waste his only time of relaxation, after taxing their brains in the office for the whole day, to know who would do the hairstyle of Aishwarya and Abhishek??I guess the answer is NO
So dear media, please stop creating this unwanted hype & let the BACHAN’s & RAI’s celebrate this beautiful event the way they want to & give us a break from this monotonity by providing us with information which would be valuable, worthwhile & worth remembering…

shukshu... gud.. cant imagine u wasted so much of effort to get all those information. are you really tat serious bout Great indian media???:O
we all kno they have to survive on somethin BIG..not just BIG B! Considerin the fact tat there are atleast 20 news channels all fightin for TRP's a term named 'responsible journalism' is no longer existant!(or did it evr exist?)
and on our part we have been talkin(cursin) and writin bout this for so long & so much tat we dont evn realize tat we can simply ignore such cheap journalism.
yup.. i think writin bout the hype in itself is being overdone!
btw
