Saina Nehwal, just what were you thinking? You spoke the truth, most definitely, but as a "Brand Ambassador", you are supposed to take money, appear in publicity material, looking suitably pretty (which if I may say so, you most definitely are, much more than that over-hyped tennis player whose name is an anagram of yours). If you read your contract carefully, I'm sure there's a clause somewhere that prevents you from having an opinion, let alone stating it. Get with the program girl, and take a few tips from Sachin Tendulkar on how to be boringly conformist in his public statements, if you want to make the kind of money our cricketers do.
Leave the truth to journalists.
Or maybe not.
Just what were you thinking, Suresh Kalmadiji? No, I don't mean looting the games budget, that's what you're expected to do being an neta in India, but not giving the Times Of India their fair share of the loot. Not done sir. All that outrage from the ToI and that Chetan Bhagat centrepiece could've been avoided. We can forgive a lot, but we find it difficult to forgive someone who gives Chetan Bhagat an excuse to sound reasonable.
Can we just get it done with? All that money is worth it, just to remind our jholawala friends exactly how efficient government machinery is. With all that hype about government spending in recent times, they were getting a bit out of hand. Don't we love silver linings?
