Wham, Bam, Thank you Pam!

  *** I started this post out long back when I was still watching Bigg Boss intermittently in between my assignments and school! (Don't judge me! ... I no longer watch it) I was rather amused at what followed after Pam left the Bigg Boss house so decided to write about it..... but the post got left behind thanks to my lack of time and I might think lot's has already been written and said about this episode...... But since i already wrote it, be nice to me and read it ...pretty please?!
******************************************************************

     Which little teenage boy or adult male hasn't fantasized about Pamela Anderson's ample bosom when she ran on those pristine beaches in Baywatch? Nothing's changed in the following years!

     Pam Anderson was due to enter Bigg Boss to boost TRP's and boost she did. Clad in a bikini blouse, white saree, trying to ape the 'desi-girl' look ... she generated more TRP's in one night than all the 14 contestants could in the span of that show then. She walked into that house, greeting everyone politely and saying 'Namaste' in her American accent; she mingled for a bit and then went to her 'special' room to sleep which Bigg Boss had assigned to her (No! She didn't sleep with the other contestants in the unisex bedroom).

     The next day, without any hesitation, she started doing the chores around the house and learnt to make rotis and sabji and laughed and joked with the housemates. Ashmit Patel and  Hrishant seemed to be drooling over her literally and followed her around like little, lost puppy dogs! If that wasn't enough, the girls had to put up a show in the night which had Pam as the main dancer .... and what song should they choose for her?? .... Dhak, dhak karne lagga!!! Like they definitely couldn't give her a 'Radha kahe na jaale' or a 'Madhubaan mein Radhika nache re' ...they had to give her something that would make her artillery shoot at the audience even if they had been blind enough to not notice it! After a lot of heaving and tantalizing dance moves, the next day, she learnt a few Hindi words and sentences from Manoj Tiwari and later, was found sun bathing in hot, short shorts in the garden area with Ashmit ... how's that for riding the TRP bull?!

    Shortly after, she stealthily left the show (just as she had stealthily entered) and shook a leg (and lots more) with Sallu bhai on 'Munni badnaam hui'. That was her 3 day stint in Bigg Boss. She promised to take everyone to Hollywood and stay in touch with them. India LOVES PAM now!!! There's no going back!

May be you wanna blow up the pic to see it better! :P

   The press went crazy about Pam, writing articles after articles about her, on her, for her etc. .... you get the drift, don't you?! Then suddenly, out of nowhere our I & B ministry woke up! "CHOLBE NA", they yelled .... This Bigg Boss on T.V is way too indecent and maims our culture and tradition like a bear would maim a human being if he ever got hold of him in the wild! They thought children's delicate minds would be affected and house-wives may start acting like Pam in the house while men would sit back and watch the show and the upright, cultural-dignity upholders would not be able to do anything as they would watch their 'sanskriti' fall into a big pile of horse-shit!

   So they thought the best thing to do would be to change the slot timings of this cheap and disturbing reality show from prime time 9pm to 11pm. Somehow, this they thought would actually save our sanskriti and desi kids from falling into the pit-less ocean of vulgarity and indecency! They argued that since children go to bed early, they will not watch this show and be saved from it all. Right?

WRONG!

   Gone are those days when kids slept at 8pm right after dinner .... they sit and watch the idiot box with their parents till late in the night. Parents have no control over their children's decisions on TV viewing these days (just try stopping one of those teens...they might just commit suicide in protest .... its in fashion apparently these days!). Teens stay up late into the night anyways....changing the timings of the show ain't gonna be much of a help! And even if you have child lock on your TV sets, that's not going to be of much use because kids are intelligent and technology-friendly and will outsmart their parents! As far as I knew last, we were a democracy ...  so why does the ministry have the right to butt in and tell us what to watch and what not to? Who are they to tell people what is right for them and what isn't? This almost feels like Bal Thackeray's stupid take on Valentine's day!

    Perhaps one needs to jog their memory about Ranveer Kapoor's towel dropping scene, Kareena Kapoor's bare back in Kurbaan, John Abraham's near naked display of ample butt in Dostana and Vidya Balan's kiss with Arshad Warsi in Ishqiyaan!!! Are you seriously telling me that you can ban Bigg Boss and/or change slot timings and that will help but watching such stuff on the big screen will not harm their anyways overactive hormones at that age??? Do they think that kid's or anyone else don't have access to the internet and everything that's on there. Someone needs to give the censor board a tour of the internet to show them just how easy it really is to access any adult site. Besides, all the Bigg Boss episodes are on Youtube ...Take that ministry -- IN YOUR FACE!! Are you now going to ban the internet as well? Regulate usage and viewing like certain countries? The more you try to ban such shows, the more curiosity you generate towards them and eventually you're doing them a favor!

   Probably the only thing left to do is be an adult about it and talk to your kids and tell them that certain kinds of viewing are not yet age appropriate (Of course your kids will revolt, rebel and refuse to listen to you but that's when you club their heads and drill sense into 'em). Also, channels could be a little more responsible and try to maintain public morality and not just race after TRP's and money (Well, I just re-read that and it sounded ridiculous! Which TV channel in their right minds would do that?!).

  Point is, there's no winning this debate .... channels will air ridiculously objectionable content and there's not a thing anyone can do about it because 90% of our sex-starved country wants to view it anyways! So, I say let's stop pretending and go back to viewing Bigg Boss at 9pm!

  So,thank you Pamela Anderson for creating an additional furore in the country with your bazookas ... not like we don't have don't have enough on our national plates anyways!


P.S: The court gave Bigg Boss a reprieve to maintain the same time slot and therefore it stays on prime time.
P.P.S: Everyone is still watching the reality show and it kinda is still gaining its TRP's .... this time thanks to foul-mouthed, loud Dolly Bindra. I've heard half of the nation went deaf ever since she's been on the show!
P.P.P.S: Pam is back in the U.S of A and enjoying her Mai Tai with Heff in the Play boy house!
