My piece at Swarajya on who actually owns the brains behind India's Automotive industry.
This is blowing up, and I am learning from the responses as well!
Keep 'em coming.

Sania Mirza to boycott all Indian tournaments.
Even I wasn't aware of the extent to which she turned Paki.

5 votes • 19 hoursSai Pallavi apparently reproaches Lakshmana for punishing Surpanakha saying 'aurat should be respected'. Can anyone confirm?
Dear bollywood fanboys and fangirls,
you need to understand that irritating the customer isnt a good idea in any business.
The rumblings about #Ramayana casting were there for years but they chose to ignore it .
Well, let them face the music now.
Don't cry about 'mean RW'.
Yeah as Ramayana, the Nitesh Tiwari take, is clearly one of the worst versions ever made from most normal people review, we can declare it a massive FLOP.
Is it still Sai Pallavi though or the tinkering they did with Valmiki Ramayana to blame?
Everyone is of course boycotting Nitesh Tiwari's #Ramayana .
What's your reason?
Reply with any other reason that I missed.

Surpanakha was shown as a victim in Namit's #Ramayana.
When Surpanakha nose was cut by Laxmana.
Sita: "tumne aaisa kyun kiya wo rakshas thi lekin aurat thi , aurton ka samman kro "
Laxmana was made to look like a fool.. MC BC Nitesh.

"South Asian" means as much as "north Asian" does. Basically a nothing term, and often a negative term. Let me explain.
"Indian" refers to different things as per context.
Talk history and its the Indic civilization stretching from Afghanistan to Cambodia and Indonesia.
Hence "Indo China", "Indo Pacific", "East Indies" and so on. Not "South Asia China", "South Asia pacific" anr so on.
See how ridiculous everything associated with "South Asia" sounds?
Then there's food.
It is a legitimate blanket term for all foods in the region I said except for where regional cuisines have branched out with something truly marketable, like the Thai, increasingly Burmese, so on. Eventually you will see Bengali, Tamil, Gujarati, Mallu and other cuisines all getting known by their own right world over.
"South Asian cuisine" 😂
.... sorry had to take a two minute laughing break there.
Cultural and Aesthetic things - same deal. Everything hindu is Indian culture. Everything else is Persian, Arabian, Chinese and so on. Nothing, not-a-thing is "South Asian".
Political ? Easy, there's India. There is no South Asia boundary.
I do understand there are several very embarrassing identities in India's immediate neighborhood but you need to find a different way to whitewash it. This term doesn't stick.
#TIL Terrorists have standards too.
Sania Mirza and Mahesh Bhupati boycotted Bangalore Open many years ago when I used to read every piece of tennis news.
Paes is king, sorry. These people are not who I follow.
You can NOT boycott an India tournament like that.

Anyone who joins Chinese cause for Chinese funds is a Chinese agent, whether from north east or a famous newspaper from Chennai down south. We don't care where you're from.
Hope that clears it up.
It's embarrassing. Indian police uses lathis on regular people but shit scared of these paid protestors.
