She put together a motley bunch of people - Ratna Pathak, Kunal Kohli (?!!). A blatant attempt to catch eyeballs. And asking such prying and intrusive questions that the poor guy was reduced to tears. <br /><br />On the anti corruption movement, I feel that social media played a greater and more proactive role than television. Only thing is - as you say, it is all about short attention spans and instant gratification. So it is a challenge to keep it alive.Deepahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05786852799531767111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7269219202790509435.post-43386806493932158522011-04-17T01:48:35.640+05:302011-04-17T01:48:35.640+05:30As always your writing is imformative and interest...As always your writing is imformative and interesting.
