What if the colas are not as harmful as the CSE tests show
What if the Health Ministry is using CSE as a tool to extract money from cola giants
[after all clean chits don't come for free]
What if the the cola giants are secretly behind the ban on sale of colas in schools
[after all banned substances are more desirable]
What if Baba Ramdeo is also working for the cola giants
What if cola giants have plans to repackage colas as Toilet Cleaners
What if Colas are banned completely
What if peddling cola becomes more profitable for gangs than Coke (the narcotic variety)

Helmets are for your safety
Last week, one of the new channels showed a story on Baroda Police's approach on forcing riders to wear helmet. Initially the traffic police were just charging a fine for 2-wheeler riders without helmets. That was the normal approach. Then they launched a drive where the policemen stopped riders without helmets and handed them a certificate and a rose. No fine, just a certificate and a rose.
Now that's an innovative and a sincere way of enforcing a law. Considering that the people behind this (the traffic police), who normally work on profit centric targets, it's even more praiseworthy.

Detergent powders pack much more
The strategy makers at India's largest fast moving consumer goods company have decided "detergent powders should deliver much more than just clean clothes"
Their new campaigns for Wheel and Rin Advanced have taken detergent powders to the next level.
Wheel: A neatly dressed women-next-door-type housewife walks in to a Post Office. She hesitantly seeks directions to a particular counter and then fills up a money order form addressed to her father back in the village. The detergent logo then morphs to one rupee coins. No non-sense talk about cleaning abilities of the soap.
Message: Buy Wheel detergent powder, save money, send it back home. The more detergent you buy, the more money you can save to send back home.
Rin Advanced: Amitabh Bachchan is chased by little children in a mall. All they are trying is to grab his attention. Easier way to do this: buy Rin Advanced and get coupons that will enable your child to participate in a talent hunt contest.
Message: Buying Rin Advanced can help your son become the next Amitabh Bachchan.
If you thought detergent powders were meant to wash clothes, think again.

Who says star sons/daughters don't have to struggle
MTV Fully Faltoo Film Ghoom is a shamelessly cheap spoof on Dhoom.
If you haven't suffered the original Chopda-Gang production, then get it's (pirated) VCD. To make this experience less painful, feel free to use the fast forward button liberally. Once you're done, you will appreciate Ghoom better. If you've already suffered the original, then you are all set. Go watch it.
Story in brief - It's an inspiring story of the struggle and hardships that sons of famous fathers have to endure to make a mark as an actor in this big bad world of Hindi filims.
Overall Ghoom is cheaply made, not as great as Ramgadh ke Sholay but it's worth the price of the ticket (must admit, I got free passes).
