#BoycottBollywoodCompletely

Why the half measures? Absolute it is.

#AkasaAir #PetsOnBoard 

This airline seems to be making the right moves. One heard of senior citizen discounts on some sectors recently and now it will allow pets on board both in the cabin and cargo. It certainly will make boring flights a lot more interesting! 

India’s youngest airline, #AkasaAir, will from November 1 allow pets — domesticated dogs and cats — on its aircraft like the country’s longest-flying carrier, Air India.

#CholasAreHindus #TamilsAreNotHindus

It’s one thing to see hashtags on social media drumming up emotions around religion. It is quite another to see it escalate to Television prime time debates. It has unfortunately become the norm today. Without taking a stand on who or what is right or wrong, it is amusing to see the different agendas at work here. It certainly has worked wonders to get the world talking about the Chola dynasty and hopefully will get the Hindi version of PS1 some more footfalls in cinemas. 

As far as actor Kamal Haasan goes, he seems to have yet again helped the far right (after the assembly elections), even if it was, again, supposedly inadvertently.

#IranProtests #MahsaAmini #HosseinRonaghi #NikaShakrami

It’s hard for any journalist to simply step back from a continuing story as powerful as this one. This should be seen as no less than #BlackLivesMatter and in fact maybe far more seriously, but it does not seem to matter as much in many parts of the world. Fear?  

Family of #HosseinRonaghi saying that he was tortured and his two legs are brokend by security forces during the interrogation.

He is kept in solitary confinement without access to medical care and his family weren’t allowed to see him.
