Media trivia

How big a media spur can you cause if you die in a plane crash which collided with some WTC or Empire State building or so? How many people will come to sympathize with your family for their loss (obviously your family gets the insurance money and freedom from your painful talks but we are not talking about that here)? The answers to the above questions will be "very few". Most of the world and media will be diving in finding out how the crash occurred, how many people died, if there was anybody surviving, if yes how, and so many things which could get just make your death so secondary that even you won't care about it.

Not exactly the same thing, but on a similar line something happened recently. Dhoni got a haircut yaar!! Now you would say, whats the big deal in that? Don't ask me, ask those who are writing about it (even I am, now :) ). Most of the people are speculating that why will he do such a strange thing. Is it because he is hitting on Deepika or because he wanted to change his fashion statement? Let me ask, can't he get sick of combing his hair everyday or keeping them clean and tidy? Anybody will get pained with such long hairs (ask the girls who also don't like to keep long hairs now a days, the smaller the better). Media has made a whole "rai ka pahad" (mountain out of a molehill) thing out of it. There are videos showing particularly his head with short hairs and not even his face. Speculations are going around about if he will be able to maintain the good performance in upcoming cricket matches with his hairs being gone (?????).

What the hell?? Nobody thinks that even Dhoni could run out of shampoo one day (even when he is the highest tax payer in Bihar) and realize that hairs can be very painful sometimes when let loose on their own. Good that he took care of them now itself. I just hope that the barber who did this to Dhoni don't get killed in the near future if India loses against Pakistan or Australia. Then may be we will have to buy Dhoni a fake wig until he gets back the good old "jungle" back on his head. Anything that works better for the nation, after all its all about Cricket in INDIA :) :) :).
