I had to kill some time at the office foyer today so I picked up the only papers available there, the city supplements of TOI and HT. I think I’ve tapped into a rich vein of satire eclipsed only by the back issues of Bean-O and The Straits Times. Here are some excerpts:
In today’s HT
The Hairdresser’s Association of Mumbai is miffed with the usage of the word ‘barber’ in the title of the Shah Rukh Khan’s film ‘Billu Barber’. The president of the association, Uday Takke has sent a letter to the press saying, “Barber ki jagah Hairdresser hona chahiye. Ye humari beizzatti hai”
They have a column where people write in to Anupam Kher with their personal problems seeking advice. Anupam Kher.
Delhi Times
Front page story:
Bebo says she cannot be with Saif on Valentine’s Day.
Under the headline: ALL OF DELHI IS TALKING ABOUT
Why do Delhi men go to parties alone? The secret is out!
Starlet Asin says she has no time for boys because she reads books. “I used to have a huge library at home. Even today I just can’t do without a book”
Asif Adil, MD of Diageo India said at the launch of his new brand “It’s a pleasure to be able to nurture Delhi’s blossoming love affair with all things luxurious”
