You hate successful women

I know I am a bit late blogging about this topic, yet its so relevant so here goes. Actually a conversation today fueled this fury so here I am. As most people who follow hindi cinema would know that Anushka Sharma, the famous actress is also producing her forthcoming film. This is her second venture as a producer. And there is this person today I'm speaking with who makes a "joke" about how Virat Kohli financed her movie! Firstly, what's funny? I'm terribly sorry I am missing the humor (if any) here so please explain to me. Or are you being witty, a smart ass, like what exactly are you trying to achieve by making that statement? Cause the only reaction you are managing to get out of me is utter disgust and rage. I am pissed off, at your disgusting thought process, of how utter failures your parents have been, what horrible parents you are going to make in the future and the society that you will stay in and continue to poison with your bullshit, petty thoughts. Anushka Sharma, an "outsider" in Bollywood without a filmy big brother or daddy makes it on her own as a huge actress. Not just that, even after so many years and despite the uncertain nature of the industry (besides other discriminations of course such as pay gap and age discrimination vis-a-vis heroes to mention a few) manages to still hold a top position despite hits or flops, because of sheer talent. Then this girl decides, admirably at such a young age to become a producer. Do you understand how risky that profession is? You need to be "brave" to become a producer. Your money may never come back if the audience outright rejects your movie. It involves HUGE costs. A whole entire crew that you feed everyday as you shoot, studios, outdoors, post production and a separate marketing budget that is at times equal to the total investment in the production of the film. Plus, like her first movie, she is yet again choosing an off beat script and not playing it safe with romance. She is truly trying something new. She wishes to have a glorious career as a producer as well. people cannot handle a single career effectively here she is dabbling two and trying to do the right thing. If she succeeds at this, just think how many jobs will she create for others and how many people will be fed.  And how do you piss on her parade? By making stupid statements which imply - Obviously since she is a "female" she is not smart enough to think for herself and needs a guy to back her career choices. How can she ever have a grand vision and then obviously how can she finance it herself? No woman can achieve anything unless a guy a backing her isn't it? Illiterates and a sorry excuse for human beings who need to feel better about their own meaningless and rotten existence obviously need to pull down a successful business woman to feel better about themselves, isn't it? To people who make such irresponsible statements I want to ask - Don't you have a mother or a sister? If you will have a daughter in the future, this is the indiscriminate world you are creating and paving for her to always fight and suffer in? Are you realizing the damage your careless words do? How you are influencing young kids around you who hear your stupid words and then those very young boys grow up to be men with a sense of entitlement and superiority complex whereas girls grow up to be low in self esteem and always doubting her strengths. Sick fucks like you piss me off with all that garbage coming out of your mouth. Do yourself and us a huge favor and just shut the fuck up.

Opposites Attract

The devil sat captivated across the angel. Eyes fixated and focused on trying to find that one tiny flaw that would make her just like him. Obsessed with finding a chink in her perfect armor.
The angel sat bewitched across the devil. Eyes stubbornly searching that broken part through which light could get inside him. Obsessed with finding a tiny ray of hope behind his perfect mask.

But what about her wounds?

Thousands thronged and waited at her doorstep. The crowd continuing to pour in, never diminishing. Broken, bleeding, twisted, hopeless. Ceaselessly, the angel met them one by one. Soothing wounds, applying healing balms, touch or words of assurance, whatever they needed. Then someone saw a large horizontal slit across the angel's back - unattended, septic and bleeding her to death slowly.
