Big Brother

This I found in an article on the BBC website:


India is still a relatively conservative society. Very few couples live together before marriage, and intimate acts, such as kissing, are never seen on TV screens.
However, soaps regularly feature storylines about infidelity and pregnancy out of wedlock.


Heheh! The western world must think we are one confused people!

Anyway, that article was about the reality show Big Brother, which is soon hitting Indian screens. But the version we see here will not have anything to do with sex, since we are scared of that word. Read about that here.

There's a programme on star news channel that gives you a wrap up of all the soaps. Yes on the news channel. The other day I saw them showing a full bong set up in bright gaudy colours (I am just describing what I saw) in which the hero was getting married for the fourth time! While his x was standing behind him (all dressed up) letting of a sigh along with the blessing "tumhe apni nayi zindagi mubarak ho" types! The guy looked very young and very hassled preparing for his fourth wedding!!!
