Shame on taste-less blogging !

I have started writing blog in the last year. I think it is a nice medium of documenting your thoughts and views on different aspects of life and surroundings. If someone else manages to visit your blog, your blog will represent you as a person.

Aamir Khan and Mr. Amitabh Bachchan are quite respected as human being and their thoughts are valued as that of a dignified citizen of India. They have started to blog in their respective websites. Their primary goal is to keep in touch with their huge fan followings and write on some recent issues which interests them.

Recently, Aamir Khan commented on his dog being named after Shahrukh Khan. Big B also took a dig at SRK criticising the falling TRP ratings of SRK's new game show. To be very frank, I am personally not a big fan of SRK. Usually, I will bet my voice arguing against most of his moves. But this time I must say, isn't there any other topic that worries these two stalwarts of Indian Cinema than SRK ? Or are they just using their blogs to publicize their images, controversies? If the later is true, I would like to suggest we should stop visiting their blogs. Its a shame on us, that our so-called great guys are behaving in such childish, taste-less and ill-humored manner. We, the people of India, tirelessly criticize our politicians. We say they are corrupt, villains of Indian democracy. What will we term these so-called 'Idols', whom we tirelessly view on the silver-screen, follow their views ? It is due to us, their movies gets hit or dumped. But see how really they fare being proper human being. Instead of writing on how to tackle with lot of difficult issues in the rising India, or writing on something which will be of any use to upcoming generation, they are just writing to benefit themselves and their petty egos. So why are they claimed as public figures. They are just narrow minded professionals and deserve to be treated with no more respect than that. I wonder, if they even charge someone to write their blogs. That will be the height of insanity.

I generally have links of both of their blogs. After this I am deleting the links, so that no one feels encouraged to visit their sites from mine. This is minimum I can do. But I really would like to voice sincere resistance against these pseudo-idealistic people who are holding high respect and reverence in our minds and hearts.

everything you wrote is fine, I agree with most of it, except the one of following their views. Do we really steer our life according to their views? Except entertaining us for a couple of hours,I don't think we even think about them, isn't it? So don't bother yourself with these petty issues. :)
