Yeh-lo-drama


What follows in the blog is in no ways connected to the posted article link.
So one fine day in the near future..
Chetan Bhagat wins the copyright issue against Mr. Hirani and the bad boys of bolly. On a stunning blue moon night where everybody was forced to tell the truth (as ancient Aztec wisdom goes), the Supreme court held the special court session in front of the famous India Gate. The color of the moon on a clear sky forced the truth out, as the country watched stunned on prime time television. Bhagat was given the recognition that was due, and rightfully all the profit generated from the movie was ordered by the court to be forwarded to his SBI (State Bank of India) IIT-IIM -Deutche Investment Banker account.
It is a massive victory for Bhagat who now can fearlessly work on his passion without having to worry about malicious people stealing his ideas. And as has been the norm since Indians started following Bhagat, who appears to be influencing more young brains than his famous namesake ever did (as noted by NY Times), we watch the country of a billion (average age 27 yrs) waiting with bated breath for him to e-pen down another of his literary wonders.
In a break away move, Sonia Gandhi's pseudo government has worked overtime during the weekend and put through the 'bhagat' bill at the the house of commons. The bill gets approved, as the country witnesses the latest addition to the fundamental rights of being an Indian citizen - The right to be honest. The Department of Honesty Enforcement (DHE), created as an after thought, has been entrusted with the task of ensuring that every Indian understands it, believes it, and respects it.
Bhagat, who fully supports the 'Right to Honesty Act', discussed at Barkha Dutt's NDTV Big Fight, that since the task was so noble and difficult, it would be apt to set the best brains of the country to work on it. And since it is obviously known where the best brains of the country are developed, it is but natural to assemble an army of the elite.
The making of the working committee was far too diffcult and it was only thanks to UTV who came up with a 11th hour fresh brain wave to launch an Indian Reality show that helped the country find the 5 most brain-iest people in the country.
The working committee was formed, and they took exactly 3 weeks to crunch the numbers and do the analysis and slug out a model that would work in India, for India, on Indians.
A few of the major findings of the working committee special report are as follows:
1. In a vast country as ours, the most commonly understood language that everybody speaks and understands, is that of money. The new honest-o-meter (work under progress at IISC) will annually handsomely reward the top 10 honest people in this country. Reliable sources advise that a special panel of judges including Sonali Bendre, Narendra Modi and Susan Boyle, shall make the honorable decision to pick the honestest Indian in year 2010. Sahara TV, Star TV and Sony TV are queuing up in front of DHE to file charges against each other for potential copyright violations, telecasting rights, and obstruction to honest work.
2. "We all were born honest, and somewhere in the path of life, we lost it. " If your belief in honesty was lost as a result of a past action of dishonesty of which you feel to be a victim of, then the Indian government encourages you to bring the issue to a special court of law and justice which is answerable only to the DHE. Reliable sources advise that IIT Delhi, IIM Ahmedabad and Deutche Bank are planning to file a copyright violation against Bhagat at the DHE approved special court.
3. Establish temples of Honesty to enrich the young minds - Indian Institute of Honesty. In line with the theme of 'education for the elite' and faith in the 'panch pandavas in Mahabharat', it is proposed that 5 IIH centres be created to provide state-of-the-art learnings on honesty. Reliable sources have advised that Lehman Brothers and Bank of America have openly offered to sponsor the creation of IIH. Day Zero recrutiment is ensured to candidates who complete this 20 month course successfully.
Bhagat meanwhile is going through the 'much vaunted' and 'often craved for' writer's block symdrome. The doctors at AIIMS have been unable to offier any relief. Sources reveal that Bhagat plans to go through a 2 week intensive course at the Internationally acclaimed 'Anu Malik's Centre for Inspiration and Creativity' to help himself return to his normal ways.
The working committee, as a token of appreciation for DHE, have proposed a novel punishment structure to ensure that people do not abuse the 'right to honesty'. Those found guilty will have to submit their Indian passport to DHE, and will then be flown to any of the new US International airports.
