my family told me this. so i believe that newspaper is similar to book.

if any god or saints appeared on the advertisement on the newspaper, none sees this, can we dance on this newspaper?

i'm lost meaning i'm confused when you said newspaper are sacred and belongs to lord saraswati.
books and newspapers are different..there are many kind of books. i would not step on books. Some books such as the holy bible, qoran and other religous text..those are sacred..i agree.
But newspapers...i bought newspapers everyday and the next day i throw it into the recycle bin.
No offense but why do you think newspaper are sacred?

u r right! it's ok about newspaper are thrown in the bin and burnt to ashes. it's no problem. but we can't stand or dance on the newspaper only. it's wrong! understood?

Well I am sure the cvs didn't mean any offense, I have seen competitions with couples having to dance on paper and they would progressively get smaller, but I was unaware that a newspaper was regarded as sacred...

it's ok. i know this. what about any gods or saints appear on the advertisements on the newspaper. can we stand or dance on that newspaper? is it allowed?

Hi everyone,😊

I'm going to tell you something. Last month i saw the show about Ovi and Arjun party. Teju wants every couples who win dancing on the small part of newspaper. Every couples started dancing on the newspapers. Even Ovi-Arjun, Armaan, and others.

It's very wrong! Newspaper is sacred book/paper! What if any God's picture appears there? Didn't they see it???? What about books? Can they dancing on the book papers which are sticked together into a full big paper like newspaper?

CV's decision was very wrong about dancing on the newspaper. They have no manners. Now some characters like armaan lose their innocence. why didn't they think about newspaper? how dare they ignore it? they have done wrong! they also didn't think that newspapers are sacred??

Please share your thoughts.😊

sayeed- yes, to many of us, we honor paper and will not step on it. This whole dancing thing is not part of Indian traditional culture. Nor the paper one- in Europe (where this paper dance stuff is popular) there is no cultural issue to stamp on paper- for ex colonists who did not care about stamping on people and culture to exploit, dancing on paper is harmless!
