Equal opportunity offender. Insufferable Know-It-All. Feminist. Studies internet culture.

AIB and every standup comedian needs to hang their head in shame for that RIP Congress video along with thousands of jokes on Manmohan Singh, Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi. I would love to see them pull off similar stunts today.
I hope comedians today apologize to Manmohan Singh. The most decent & graceful man in public life was ridiculed immensely to make a mass murderer win.

Why don't people understand this. The dowry death cases are far more than these 'harassment of men' cases. We won't need dowry laws if men stop asking for dowry.
The laws exist to protect women from men because women require protection from men. When they no longer need them, we will discuss changing them.

Got to watch the #DeepVeer episode on #KoffeeWithKaran. More than their relationship status, I want to thank Deepika for normalising taking medications for mental health issues. She spoke about her struggles with depression and how she doesn't want to go back in that space.

@Slatzism @gynfeminist Please look at the conviction here in India for rapists. Most of them get away with just a slap on the wrist. Or by serving a couple of years in prison. There's practically no deterrent for rape here.

One of the best things about LiverDoc is how he is empowering more doctors to call out the BS claims made by influencers and celebs with regards to health.
This is cinema actress Nayantara who has more than twice the following of the other actress Samantha miselading her 8.7 million followers on a supplement called hibiscus tea. If she had stopped at hibiscus tea is kind of tasty, that would have been ok. But no, they have to go

A terrible thing to say and do especially by not standing by your lead actor in the film. Yuck.

Sexism ho to aise. Hasn't Emraan Hashmi made out in practically every film of his? The movies of the 70-80s where every second film had a rape scene? Why don't you ask the actors who are senior citizens and yet want to dance around trees with actresses half their age?.
Frankly Speaking: #DeepikaPadukone getting stereotyped with her roles; needs a paradigm shift before time runs out. @deepikapadukone .

Erroneous interpretation of certain laws have led to the suffering of online gaming industry which has the potential to contribute billion dollars in tax, create a lot of jobs. Central law by gov will help industry to live up to its potential. @Rajeev_GoI

1- When Vidya Balan removes that artificial belly in the climax of Kahaani. 2- When Aamir Khan finally realises that Rosie is a ghost in Talaash. These are just at the top of my mind. .
what was a moment/scene in a Hindi film which shook the earth beneath you? I rem vividly when Kangana Ranaut's Shonali walked the ramp in Fashion, I was shaking. Iconic. That whole Mar Javan bit -- a runway show set to a deeply melancholic song -- captured the film's essence.

@o_kay_p Indians are pretty scared of being hauled up in courts. knowing that even the gig economy workers in first world countries have rights and access to legal representation.

It took more than a year for publications from across the globe to stand up for Amber Heard.
I stand with Amber, and I have done for long time. I was proud to be one of the experts who signed the open letter in support of Amber in 2022. #AmberIsWorthIt .

Few thoughts about #MrsChatterjeeVsNorway . People need to stop glorifying parents and parenthood. First world countries are mindful of child abuse and will send the parents to jail unlike South Asian cultures. Govt authorities have every right to intervene if a child.

I totally support the crew member. Indian men are known to misbehave with crew on national and international flights. I hope the airline stands by her and not the incel who thinks he owns the airline because he paid for a ticket.
Tempers soaring even mid-air: "I am not your servant" . An @IndiGo6E crew and a passenger on an Istanbul flight to Delhi (a route which is being expanded soon with bigger planes in alliance with @TurkishAirlines ) on 16th December :

Gujarati dominant areas in Mumbai refuse housing to Maharashtrians. Bit rich expecting them to not be exclusionary in their own state.
Shocked to face blatant caste discrimination in Sant Vihar 1 Society, Gandhinagar, Gujarat. My attempt to buy a flat turned into a nightmare as society's management is barring my entry due to caste. #Gandhinagar #Gujarat #CasteDiscrimination @GujaratPolice @CMOGuj.

New found respect for Sona, Richa, Taapsee. So glad they are speaking up against the chomu actors who are basically one paer in kabar and want to romance women 1/25th their age.
Marries a woman 11 yrs younger than and calls another who's just 5yrs younger than too old for him. Just Ratbir things

I'm personally not a fan of Zoya Akhtar. But #MadeInHeaven is needed for Indian audiences. There needs to be a series that has a jaded look at marriages. People can't do a distinction between weddings and marriages and #MadeInHeaven draws that much needed line.

Men with read books written by abusers such as Neruda, Marquez, Dalrymple and Naipaul. And judge women for reading chicklit.
I urge all women to go through the QTs and see for yourselves the extent of disdain directed toward you—your interests, your presence, your very existence. This isn't limited to right-wing men; even left-wing men are united in their contempt for women.

In several parts of Maharashtra meat is served on Asthami and Navami. It might surprise a lot of North Indians that people eat meat during Navaratri as part of cultural beliefs. Keep your puritanist views out of out plates.
Durga Puja Pandal Visit is always incomplete without Mughlai Paratha, Mutton Chop, Prawns Cutlet, Fish Fry and Egg Roll

The comments and QTs show how the right wingers in India will support Kashmiri Pandits only when it suits their agenda. They wouldn't mind abusing a Kashmiri Pandit who doesn't follow their brand of hatred politics.

@gauravsabnis 1. Indian incels, techbros and financebros look up to men who are rich and who denigrate women in every way possible. 2. Men are taught from childhood to suck up to rich and powerful men because they control the world. 3. They project their own insecurities.

Arrange marriages dehumanise everyone involved in it. However, dating apps aren't too different either. People do not date anyone out of their social circles nor someone who isn't conventionally attractive. However, the caste endogamy is perpetuated by means of arrange marriages.
One of my engineer friend who is earning 8LPA and it's been only two years of his job and belongs to a well to do baniya family got rejected for arranged marriage by a girl who left her job last year because she felt exhausted and not she's not doing anything now. reason for.

I like how people who have never lived a day in Mumbai are here to tell us how we should grieve and remember #2611 attacks. No we don't need to relive the nightmare of those 3 days, especially with garbage hate -mongers. .

Women not taking autos has caused an economic collapse. How weak was your economy 🤡.
A Bengaluru auto driver in tears after collecting just Rs 40/- from 8 am to 1 pm. This is the result of free bus rides given by the new Cong govt in #Karnataka . Pushing people into poverty!!.#freebies.

This. Varsha Bhosale's Opinion Pieces back in the late 90s to early and mid-2000s were vile and contemptuous. The woman at one point justified and rationalised the widespread Islamophobia after the 9/11 attacks. She was poOpIndia before poOpIndia.
The haj subsidy grouse is an issue first created out of thin air online by Varsha Bhosale who started calling ABV as "hajpayee" in her rediff columns. Even then, people pointed out that the subsidy is for air India not really for individuals going to haj. Didn't matter to her.

She was allowed to donate 60 pc of her liver. She was the mother of a young child. She wasn't even a blood relative. She thought of her MIL's sister as her own mother. Yes, totally believable.
