Making sense of the good, bad and often strange trending topics online
Who knew Sushma had it in heru00a0-- the ability to bust a move, that is! The senior BJP leader attracted much attention from the kind people on Twitter following video footage of her dancing at Gandhi's samadhi Rajghat during what was supposedly a protest. While J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah claimed his father was a better dancer, someone asked: 'What was she trying to prove? That hips don't lie?' A certain Sri Harsha wasn't amused: 'If her dance is an insult to the father of the nation,' he tweeted, 'Sonia Gandhi's silence on police atrocities at Ramlila is an insult to humanity.' As for the dancer at the eye of this storm, she said: 'I am shocked that this is the sole clipping picked up as a representative visual of the Satyagraha, and is being repeatedly telecast.'
To say a few words
Speaking of politicians clogging timelines, Congress spokesman Manish Tiwari's appearance on a televised debate got him some advice from someone called Mahadevan: 'He should be told, never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.' And this, from Siddhartha Prakash: 'Tiwari always starts with "allow me to..." Didn't he hear Ramlila protesters saying 'allow us to protest peacefully"?'
Some sole searching
40-year-old schoolteacher Sunil Kumar Sharma was destined for trending glory the minute he moved towards Congress general secretary Janardhan Dwivedi, shoe in hand. Surprisingly, Digvijay Singh hogged the limelight (if one may call it that) following televised footage of him allegedly kicking Sharma. Prakhar Jaiswal wryly commented: 'Kumar was anti-national, but the journalists who beat him for just showing Dwivedi the truth were Gandhian followers indeed.'
The last word
I quote Ram Gopal Varma: 'When you reach a point of no return, you should return the point.' This goes a long way towards revealing how he brings his inscrutable logic to the art of filmmaking.
