What is the single most retarded piece of shit currently
doing the rounds on Indian television? The question barely leaves the lips, and
pat comes the obvious and unanimous reply: ‘Dil jumping jhapak jhampak jhampak,
thumping thapak thampak thampak , gili gili yeah’. No, seriously. Farhan Khan
(and of late her brother too) have made it a habit of theirs to openly insult
our intelligence.
The promotional videos that are a part of this year’s IPL
feature Farah Khan in a series of TV ads barging into unknown households and
offices with her band of acolytes, followed by full-blown harassment of the
occupants. The one featuring the small family of three is particularly
pitiable.
She storms into their house, brandishes a cudgel, and scolds
them for being just a mute spectator (‘sirf dekhneka nai’ she says) and forces
them to dance to a tune that is as retarded as it gets. Really, it is so
annoying that even Justice Katju might not approve of it, leave alone pardon
her.
