Neha doesn’t mind the occasional flash

Or something more witty.
A few months ago, the story of public indecency involved Richard Gere and Shilpa Shetty, this year, the story involves Neha Dhupia and another rich, white man. At Channel [V]’s live Bollywood Premiere, Neha was dancing up a storm with Richard Branson on stage. You know who he is, right guys? The role model for all high-school dropouts? That guy who’s company name makes you want to giggle because you think of something else? Yeah, that’s him.
Now dancing isn’t frowned upon, but the few pecks that Neha got from Richard and the little flashes that the photographers got when he twirled her around were serious no-no’s. No criminal proceedings have been started…yet, but Neha is alright with the whole debacle.
“I have taken the whole incident in the right spirit and I don’t think there was any harm caused to anyone. I would like to dance with him once again, but this time I will make sure that I am wearing trousers.”
Some bloggers and websites insist that this is a show of disrespect to Indian women by the White guys. Indians…tut, tut, always playing the race card. Kidding, I wouldn’t wanna offend my readers, some of you are really mean. But to suggest that these guys would not behave the same way with Hollywood actresses is a bit stupid. They would, but Hollywood actresses wouldn’t be wearing these tacky short clothes that C-list actresses seem to prefer and thus, the option of flashing doesn’t even open up.
Ohkay, and I think that’s enough deep thought and analysis for today. After all, it’s Friday!
