Episode # 49: 'We are like that only!'

Friday, 04 May 2007 05:37

Sakshi Juneja, a "celebrity blogger" from Desidabba joins us on the eve of our 50th episode. She also happens to be a huge Rakhi Sawant fan and is an unabashed PR machine for Rakhi on the cyber space. Listen to know more!!!

India is a place with a universe of possibilities. 'We are like that only' is a phrase that works well for India, but, not so much when a father rapes his 13 year old daughter and is granted bail for 'technical reasons'! And when they add people on the VIP list who can skip scrutiny check at airports, etc. like they add food items on a hotel menu, it starts getting scary!

Here is a HUGE shout out to all of you for helping us get this far! The 50th episode will be special. We promise!

Your's Internetally,

Abhishek

Ben: I read the article! As dangerous as it can get! Now, read the following link:

Is this the solution? What do you think?

Why would she want to do this?? its not like rape victims get a big compensation or anything unlike in the US!!

BUt we shouldnt read anything into it.. probably she has stage fright when it comes to talking in court!!

I personally think the \"ban on night shifts for women\" is totally un-called for. Instead of providing better solutions these guys are chopping easy way out. Sick!!

ok, I am not trying to flame anyone or be negative on purpose, but honestly this episode was just not so good.

maybe it was a combination of topic and chemistry, don\'t know, but I really wasn\'t so happy. Try to keep the guests to a minimum, the chemistry between Aditya and Abhishek is what keeps us listening, and keep the topics more generic, remember your audience is international now that you are international superstars, and keep the drops into hindi minimal as well.

Besides the only topic we really want to hear about is details on Aditya\'s pre-arranged marriage wedding! whats up there, when are our invitations coming :-) what color will the flowers be, how is Aditya going to manage his wedding night :-) fun stuff to talk!
