Do celebrities acting for their
own fortune deserve the highest civilian award of our country?
Had they united their special talent with some visible philanthropic activity or harnessed their vast fan following for bringing some social change for the benefit of marginalized sections, they would have really deserved such honor.
Narrow thinking pervades the minds of most of so called celebrities in India and they fear taking a right stand on an otherwise controversial social issue as they feel that it would deplete the number of their fans and commercial endorsements…!! We expect so much less from them that a centaury in a match or a nice dialogue in a movie would be enough to satisfy us!
I don’t know why Gays are celebrating a cricketer’s career. It is devoid of any mentionable adoption of a social cause for the good of society as a whole. In my opinion Celina Jaitly is more deserving.
