Façade


I’ve been watching MTV Roadies since long. And thanx to my brother, i’ve developed quite an interest in that show. Lately, i’ve discovered that i enjoy the auditions part more than the actual roadie thing.
And there are quite a few reasons for the same.

One: I get to see new and interesting interview techniques!! And as it is an integral part of my job, it helps!!! (naah, i don’t get to interview people like Raghu does! Sob sob.... :D )

Two: it is a great timepass!!

Now, the last episode (which was telecast on 15th March) is the reason why i call this a sheer timepass..! And especially this current season on a whole…

Now those who know what this show is all about would comprehend that politics and personal ditching and bi****** is not an integral part of this show. In fact, it is about how you can identify who’s the toughest candidate and get rid of him/her by getting exemption or as they call it, immunity. And for that you have to show your skills and ‘never-say-die attitude’. At least this is what i could gauge from the first 2-3 seasons.

But this time it has crossed the limits! There are girls fighting over who looks better or who is from a better brand of college, or who can crib better or who can curse the other one better or who can show her flirting skills with every boy on the show better..!! oh what the fish!!!
C’mon girls!! What kinda image are you people posing? In fact, just after that episode my brother gave me this reaction, “ haah, these girls!! Girls are always like this!! If they cannot tolerate anything good in other girls, they just go around saying mean things to each other!!!” I was shocked! I virtually entered in a fight with him, but all in vain. He kept reminding me of the things happening on that show!!!

Hmm… so, there ARE still such kind of girls who think that, even though they are dumb and don’t qualify under intellectually species, if they have good and fair looks, they can win everything. Worst, there ARE boys who worship such girls!! For these people, looks matter the most, even if they deny upfront... but they wouldn't even consider a not-so-fair girl over a fairy-little-cute girl, even if she's the most intelligent of the lot!!!


Oh but then, looking at these girls, what other conclusion could we draw??

Unfair?


“Oh her life is so perfect!”… i though… when i met one of my very good friends the other day. She has everything which anybody could ask for… Great career, married to her love of life (who incidentally is also doing fantastic in his own career) who loves her like crazy, great house which is very appealingly decorated, ... Yeah, everything!

And i almost have those things which i want..

How can some people have everything and we always just wait for some things in life? I am contented very fast.. but that doesn’t mean that there is no passion left in life.. there are so many things to be done, in so little time.. so many things to be achieved, through so few resources.. But i have that passion to do those things on my own...

There are many moments when we feel everything in life is satisfying and pleasing. But the next thing you know is some problem has come up, which you had never thought of, and which if unnoticed, can ruin everything!

Oh damn! This is unfair! Why can’t our life go as per the plans? Why can’t we just take into consideration all the extraneous yet important matters into consideration?

We don’t want everything.. But, why can’t we just live the way we want to?? How come some people live a peaceful life, when they don't deserve a bit of it?
