Almost from the first time Soros's stooge started crying about evm and votes, I've advocated bringing in an anti-election-fearmongering law. Bring proof or go to jail. But, most important - nobody listens to me 😂😂

Prithvi Shaw… what are you doing 😭

Akriti had earlier made cheating allegations against him and it seems she was actually right!

1. What's wrong with the Giva ad?

Nothing you see on TV/advertisement or/big screen, especially in big budget projects, is innocent or accidental

The Giva ad continues a broader trend in how film-entertainment and ad industries have treated cultural sensitivities of the two majority communities very differently for years - something Gems of Bollywood has exposed so clearly

Look at the way popular culture has marketed Hindu festivals for years. For instance, check any compilation for suggestions for Diwali playlist:
“Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai”
“Let’s Nacho”
“Tamma Tamma Again”

But typical suggestions for Eid playlist:
“Noor-e-Khuda”
“Maula Ali”
“Kun Faya Kun”

Typical media suggestions for Diwali outfit ideas these days: sexualised styling - cleavage, revealing blouses, familiar Bollywood glamour

Typical outfit suggestions for Eid: Rich and covered

This means that they know what cultural sensitivity looks like, what a family gathering looks like, what sanctity of a festival looks like

But they apply it only where they want

The test of their intention is simple. Look at the image attached. Imagine her holding a plate for Iftari and the text saying Eid. Will any brand ever run such an ad?

2. Are these ads really made to increase sales during Rakhi?

The primary purpose of such an advertisement is not to sell jewellery for Rakhi. Conduct a market survey. Show consumers the ad and ask them whether the imagery is prompting them to buy Giva jewellery on Rakhi for their sisters. I doubt the answer would be overwhelmingly yes

Modern advertising works at a deeper level than simply saying buy this product. It is often aimed at shaping long-term attitudes

When the same kind of imagery is repeatedly used around certain festivals, weddings and family occasions, it leads to normalisation of a particular culture

Much of it seems to be aimed at creating a society where every aspect of a woman's life is sexualised. I would say it is the same mindset that wants to legalise adult men having sex with schoolgirls

3. How should the public respond?

Stop treating these celebrities as icons and withdraw your interest from them

The same actress as in the ad did Thumkeshwari item number and then pretended to be Ma Sita on screen - until we vehemently opposed it, ran a campaign, people responded and the movie bombed

Reject them from every aspect of your life where you have a choice

@fireboltt__ after a recharge to 100%, without any usage the smart watch @92% battery life shows 3+hrs of usage life.

[P Pramod @tmk_pramod]

@fireboltt__ You are cheating people with sub standard products and closing the complaints without properly resolving the concerns.

Registered Complaint - 3030669.

Smart watch should ideally last 20+hrs on a single charge.. your product at 100% charge lasts less than 2hrs

[P Pramod @tmk_pramod]

As per your instructions after unpacking, we charged the device till 100% but it didn't even last 2+hrs.

Dropped my purse yesterday evening on busy nagenahalli mainroad. I didn't realise I had dropped it until someone called today evening saying he had found my purse. It had my DL, cards and 2k cash.

We met at landmark on nagenahalli mainroad. He handed over the purse asked me to check money and cards were intact.

I profusely thanked him for gesture and asked him how did he find my contact number. He said he was trying to find my contact since yesterday and finally going through purse he found bill which had my number on it .

I asked him why he had to go to such great length to handover purse to me. He said money we earn doesn't stay with us, what is use of someone else money. He knew value of DL and other cards and he didn't want me to suffer. He didn't want anything in return.

World still has people with conscious, noble intentions. All is not lost.

Meet Rameshanna who found & returned my purse

The most foolish idea?

My opposition called me a fool and my Idea the most foolish idea.

They said they will shave their heads and never wear long pants if my idea became a reality.

What was this Idea?

A common citizen needs to book 3 months in advance to secure best zone permits and here red carpet is laid down for judges free of cost. A simple question- WHY? @Dev_Fadnavis @mieknathshinde @CMOMaharashtra
I request everyone to RT and spread this so that it reaches Deva Bhau. I am sure he must not be aware of this.

@dp_satish The value of properties should be defined based on demands

The benefit of open market is always to the owner of the product which is in demand.

The reversal is a regressive mode and impacts the owner.. middleman and officials will be a biggest beneficiary of this reversal.

Yes, Small cap funds can have long snooze periods. Have taken some the funds highlighted and dissected to understand how bad the snooze period would have been for investors.

One time investment of 10L Considered for the last 10 years. Yellow highlighted period is the snooze period in the 10 year period. Have did this work for 4 funds. Consumed a lot of time. Will finish the others when I get time.

Despite the long snooze periods, I don't see the CAGR alarming! At any point of time, the CAGR has not fallen below 12%.
