Two days back my news feed was full of pictures of our new internet sensation Priya Prakash with captions reading "National crush of India", "Cutest smile ever" etc and now her pictures still prevail with new captions where other girls who happen to dislike the unnecessary attention she's getting, is humiliated and referred to as 'jealous creatures' just because they refused to join the "Hail Priya Prakash" campaign.
If I remember correctly two years back when girls had this same craze about Pakistani actor Fawad Khan the boys who are now shaming other girls had same problems in accepting the fact that most girls in our country actually went gaga over this actor and for good reasons too. Fawad didn't make his way to our hearts just by winking or wiggling his eyebrows but by establishing the fact that he is a good actor. Boys had difficulty in coping with that craze back then and few even commented some Kashmiri truck drivers are more handsome than him.
But I don't remember how many times we thrashed or insulted them for not accepting the fact that Fawad is actually worthy of getting our attention.
Girls are NOT jealous of other girls. A few months back when ManushiChillar became Miss World and the whole country celebrated her victory there was overwhelming amount of wishes and support from all the girls. Because Manushi did bring glory to our country and we were immensely proud of her as an Indian and as a woman.
So I would request people to stop spreading this message that we girls are jobless and are fuming with jealousy over some internet star. Her smile obviously is ethereal and she is young. And I believe she will give us better reasons to make her famous in the near future. And it is you who is jobless and are busy making memes, we have enough jobs in our pockets to keep us occupied.
One last thing, to the people who are constantly comparing her with some of our prominent actresses. Success and fame were not served to them on a platter. So before comparing please keep in mind they earned their position, you people didn't give it to them unlike some.
PS: Do you agree with this?
