Amidst all the things happening in the country, News24 seems to be able to think only about Disha Patani's 'Ugly' photo from school. *FACEPALM*

With all the BS that Karni sena, and the politicians of the country are generally up to, I’m honestly amazed at the ability of some news houses to be so blatantly ignorant of it and choose to tweet about something like this. (below)

I mean, is that what your sponsors give you money for, News24? I’m not being judgmental, but it’s pretty clear that you’re headed straight up that way. I understand that bollywood related articles are an object of interest to millions of people, but I don’t think shaming somebody for their looks (that too in class 7) makes for any kind of a read. Standing ovation to actress Disha Patani for destroying their useless tweet with a fitting reply LOL.
And I have a question for the people concerned with this tweet, how much professional make-up did you people use when in class 7? Class 7 is the age when everybody hits or has been hit by puberty. That’s not a very flattering age, and neither is the angle or the quality of the camera that picture on the left has been taken in.
Funny that you guys didn’t think about all of this despite being fully grown adults. Peace!

A nature lover, Usha Rajagopalan set up a trust called the Puttenahalli Neighbourhood Lake Improvement Trust (PNLIT) in June 2010.
While there is a glint of adventure in her eyes and a chuckle in her voice, there is also an unshakeable determination to achieve her goals which, she says, she has had from her college days. That’s Usha Rajagopalan, well-known Bengaluru-based author.
But these days her writing has taken a backseat as lake conservation has become her passion. The 67-year-old spirited senior citizen has made it her life’s mission to save the Puttenahalli Puttakare lake near her home.
Usha Rajagopalan likes calling herself a “lakeika” – a lake activist and a writer (‘lekhika’ in Hindi). “I am a writer by choice and lake conservationist by chance,” she says with a smile. Creative writing has always been a passion and she has published several books.
How come a man working 9 to 5 "comes home tired" but a woman coming back home after work is expected to do the household chores, manage the children and other stuff too?
I came across this line recently in a Tanishq advertisement (ad) and it immediately caught my attention. The ad basically demonstrates a woman as “superwoman” as she does all the professional and personal work simultaneously, she manages the social circles along with the family, she manages everything with a smile. The actual twist comes at the end when the same superwoman says that before a superwoman, I am a human first; I get tired also, I fail also and at times I am helpless too.
I feel all working women will relate to the subject line. We women are expected to be superwomen, but we are normal humans. How come a man working 9 to 5 comes home tired but a woman coming back home after work is expected to do the household chores, manage the children and other stuff too?
There is a beautiful video shared by Jaya Kishori Ji, a motivational and spiritual speaker, wherein she says, “ki hum chahte hain hamari betiyan chaand par jayein par jaane se pehle 4 paranthe or 2 cup chai banakar jaaye (we wish for our daughters to go to moon, but before going we want them to cook 4 paranthas and 2 cups of chai),” why this is so? Why are the expectations so different?
