Sunny Leone's hot poster keeps a farmer's crops safe

The farmer told a leading daily recently, "This year, I have a good crop of 10 acres. This has been attracting the unnecessary attention of villagers and passersby. To ward off their evil eye, I thought of this idea of putting up the big flax poster of Sunny Leone a couple of days ago."

The poster also has a line written in Telugu: "Orey, nannu chusi edavakura (Hey, don't cry or feel jealous of me)!"

The strategy is working apparently and Leone is diverting people's gaze from his field. "The trick has worked. Nobody is looking at my crop now," Reddy said.

It's quite common in the countryside for superstition-steeped farmers to use straw-filled scarecrows with an upside down clay pitcher to resemble a human head for scaring birds away from fields or put ugly, fearsome dolls called "bommalu" in Telugu to block the evil eye.

In rural Andhra Pradesh, demons are drawn on a metal plate or a pumpkin are set up as "dishti bomma" or evil eye doll in front of homes and near farms. But a poster of a popular actor in a skimpy bikini is a first, perhaps.

The farmer doesn't think he has breached any indecency law, and nor does he give a hang to agriculture officials or police finding the visual objectionable. "The officials never bother to come to our fields to find out our problems. Why should they have any objection?" he asked.

Funny Right?
