With 14 hour work days and rare weekend offs, are our telly stars clued in or spaced out? Do they know about what's happening in the world, and do they care?

Are they hassled, unruffled or plain diplomatic? Telly Chakkar begins a new section that quizzes TV celebs on piping hot topics every week.

Begin to imagine Sania Mirza in a long skirt or probably a loose fitting salwar kameez while she serves her powerful forehand.
The reason for this wild mind's eye? Err…nothing much, just a strong worded request from a portion of a religious community that wants to see rising tennis star suitably attired when she steps on to the court. Riya Anandwala spoke to a few TV stars to find out what they think, if they have heard of the ruckus around the issue.

Definitely, one has to be in one's limits. But on the other hand, Sania or anyone for that matter, can't really wear a long flowing skirt and get on court. As long as it isn't affecting her performance, there's no harm. And don't forget, she is doing our country proud!
"As long as it isn't affecting her performance, there's no harm!"
Yes, in our community wearing such clothes and showing off one's body is not permissible. But considering the fact that she's representing India, I don't think there's anything wrong. She's not walking the ramp in skimpy clothes, is she? Personally, I don't think anyone should oppose her.

She is just doing her job. If guys can wear shorts, what's the harm in girls opting for short skirts? There are a group of fanatics in every religion, unfortunately more in Muslims, but I don't think that anyone should bother about that. If we leave the religion aside, our life would be so beautiful.
"If guys can wear shorts, what's the harm in girls opting for short skirts?"
I have not been in touch with the broadsheets as I am preoccupied with my work. I personally don't have any reservations. It's her life, and she is free to do whatever she wants. There are many who do things according to their convenience. She might believe in somethings and not in some, so it all depends upon her belief!

As an Indian, and as a person, I feel it's stupid to take objection to a tennis player's attire. While playing tennis, there are certain things which are supposed to be kept in mind, like freedom of movement. One cannot expect her to wear a long skirt and go on with the game. Even as a Muslim, I feel that there is nothing wrong, as long as she is doing our country proud. The Quran definitely condemns Muslim girls from wearing revealing clothes but nowhere is there anything about tennis!

well i definately agree to hussain!

its her lyfe let her live it by herself!!!!
