Martina Hingis - Originally Published 12th July, 2015 on Facebook & Twitter after she won Wimbledon after 17 years.  Every night in my dreams... Down the memory lane. 17 years ago she was 17. I had a crush on her. Titanic had released at that time. Just like Jack Dawson , I sketched her. Abba used to be my favorite then. And the song I liked most .. You are the Dancing Queen... Young and sweet, only seventeen. She was having the time of her life then. She is having it now again. Was on top then, she is on top now. 17 years later she regained glory. You can dance, you can jive. Martina Hingis , many congratulations for winning Wimbledon again. And thanks Sania Mirza. Far across the distance and spaces between us, you have come to show you go on. Every night in my dreams...

Originally published 24th November, 2015 on Facebook # AamirKhan  " My God " why did you say it ? To be honest guys we are way too moderate. I do not know if Taslima Nasreen actually said about Amir Khan and PK which is appearing in FB. "If he had mocked Muslim religion in Pakistan or Bangladesh he would have been hanged." But it is actually very true. Even if he had tried to mock Muslims in India there would have been tremendous backlash. And so they didn't even take a chance. Though we would believe what little they tried to d o , showing Amir walking toward a mosque with liquor in hand , this itself was brave. My heart was pounding in anticipation of how far would he go. But they could not go beyond that. While we kept on laughing at the mockery of Hindu religion. You know why? BECAUSE WE ARE TOLERANT ! Really sad that we need to shout to tell "we are tolerant" ! Is it that only celebs are living in fear ? Why is this not ...
