Inky pinky ponky: Be it the Bachchans, the MNCs or the crusaders against the moral policeu00a0everyone's talking pink |
I was scared at first. Then I took the challenge; stood there firmly. But after knocking off a large number of dinghies, trawlers, dhows, she continued to stand before; staring at me constantly.u00a0
The pink monster
Pinky is not the girl next door. She, in fact, is a dreaded monster who has swallowed lives of many youngsters and professionals. Half the world today trembles by the mere thought of Pinky.
Earlier, world powers would paint the town red for the sake of their thrones. Today, the global economic meltdown is painting the town pink.
There is hardly an organisation today that has not used its power of pink. The pink slip is become a trend of sort and every company is following it. This has resulted in the birth of Pinky.
After reds (communism) shook the world in the late 19th century and the green revolution in 1940s, this is the pink revolution. This revolution has taken away jobs in large numbers; jobs, both big and small.
A revolution
Pinky has unearthed another revolution. A revolution of hope. Starting in Delhi, it is slowing spreading across India. This monster also threatens the moral police. Nisha Susan, a Delhi-based girl, initiated a campaign to send pink chaddis to activists of Sri Ram Sene, a brigade that recently attacked women in a Mangalore pub.
Daring, I must say.
Pinky is a double-edged sword. Pinky is hope and despair. Pinky is Venus.
Pinky is Brutus.
So, what's your Pinky like?
