TERROR AND THE COMMON MAN
Innocents targeted
More letters on the same topic will be published next week.


Shocked

The recent incident of terrorism in Mumbai has shaken the world. Terrorists are created mainly due to poverty. They do anything for money. Young unemployed youth are brainwashed and trained. All their demands are fulfilled in exchange of ...


Helpless, why

We have so much anger in us against terrorism. Yet, we are unable to do anything. We place all our faith and confidence in our leaders and the administration. But politicians have failed us miserably each time. Public memory is short and we ...


Eradicate

People’s fight

Terrorists are creating havoc in ordinary people’s lives. So scared are people now, that nobody wants to help a stranger. Terror is deeply rooted and has left a deep scar in everybody’s mind. We, the people, need to fight terrorism ...

What a makeover!
There was Akshay Kumar in the nineties and there is Akshay Kumar now. We are simply amazed — no not just the choice of his films and his subsequent success — but by his makeover. If you see him now as the bumbling bloke or hear his ...
Mentor, no more

Remember Bruna Abdullah, the part Brazilian-part Indian channel [V] VJ? And remember rumours about her being Salman Khan’s new arm-candy? Well, she reportedly got an item song in Anubhav Sinha’s “Cash” thanks to him. ...
