OK guys, I've been really pissed at MM for their stories lately regarding Ram and Naman's friendship. It pissed me off even more when they went ahead and questioned other actors about what they thought. So I decided to write an open letter to Mumbai Mirror (I'm thinking of sending it to Mid Day as well!).

Let me know what you guys think.

Anam

-----------------------------------------

To Mumbai Mirror,

Recently, you ran a story about Ram Kapoor and Naman Shaw's friendship. Though in this industry and business, many people are great friends and close to each other, you guys seemed to have put so much effort in to this story that it makes me wonder, what are you as journalists trying to prove? I've been a loyal fan of Mumbai Mirror for a long time now and it disgusts me to see that you have put so much limelight on Ram and Naman's special relationship. So what if two guys are close? Does this give you a right to question their sexuality? Especially when the whole world knows that Ram Kapoor is married to the ever beautiful Guatami Kapoor and recently had a daughter.

I don't understand why such a big deal is being made about their relationship? So what if two guys share a very warm and close relationship? I've known a lot of guys who share this kind of relationship, but it does not mean they're gay. It does not mean anything! I was shocked and disgusted when you went on the question other actors to ask what they thought of this? Do you really think this is some kind of a cheap publicity stunt? I don't think so! Because neither Ram nor Naman need this kind of cheap publicity, considering that Kasam Se has made them a house-hold name. Kasam Se is popular enough that they don't need this kind of publicity. They don't need ANY kind of publicity.

I'm surprised that you didn't question Prachi and Ram's relationship. Considering, most media would since it's a guy and a girl. Ram has said so many times that he's very fond of Naman Shaw as well as Prachi Desai. Does this mean he's having an affair with either one of them? NO! It just means that they get a long great and have a very comfortable relationship.

Why is it that people think that two actors can't get along? And if they do, then there must be something going on between them. What has this world come to? Where has the value of friendship gone? Why can't we accept that two people can be great friends, close to each other, and be very expressive about it, without questioning their sexuality? Are we really that broad minded now?

I really didn't expect this out of Mumbai Mirror, but I guess it shouldn't surprise me since it's still media trying to sell their story.

I've seen a lot of actors come and go out of this industry, but have never seen such talented people that Ekta Kapoor has chosen for Kasam Se. They've proven to all the audiences what great actors they are. I think this is one of the first shows I've known where all the actors get along with each other like a house on a fire. They are all close to each other, care about each other and are comfortable with each other and that shows on screen as well. I'm really proud to say that Kasam Se has become such a huge part of my life that I wouldn't miss an episode for anything. Not even the repeat telecast. Kasam Se is a different show, with great story and great actors, whom I love.

I'd only like to say that Ram Kapoor is an awesome actor, I've followed him with every show that he's done and I look forward to watching him every day on Kasam Se as Jai Walia. Nothing will affect Ram's popularity, because his audiences love him for who he is and not what the media wants to portray him as.

I hope that because of your cheap story, Naman Shaw's career isn't affected and people don't take their friendship the wrong way.

We live in a world where we have better things to do than to think about what kind of relationship two actors share with each other.

Sincerely,

Anam Batool

Ram Kapoor Fan #1

P.S. My loyalty lies with Ram Kapoor & Kasamh Se and nothing can change that, not even a story like yours.

Ok guys, I sent it to Mid-Day HitList Editor Sarita Tanwar as well. I really hope she let's it print.

I'm not sure if Mumbai Mirror will print, who knows.

I'm just trying to defend Ram and Naman's friendship because I really think it's unfair to judge someone like that. Especially someone like my Ramu!

Thanks for your feedback, at least I know you guys are backing me up lol!

Anam, i am with ya.. they have no right to question any one's sexual
preference.. its sickens me that in society.. ppl think its their job to hurt ppl
by teasing out on the preferences of others..!

for god's sake they are friends.. and besides it was a friendly gesture..!

plz mumbai mirror.. let this letter be published and mid day as well......

its just not fair that Ram and Naman's friendship has become a scene.. they
are not bloody gay( sorry for being rude).. but its just rude!

I hope ppl will get it through their head that just being friends with ppl of
the same sex doesn't make you homosexual!

Thanks hun for sending the letter,We all support your act in defending our actors and esp when it comes to Ram

ya i agree it was such a pissy to ask the opinion of the actors abt their relationship.What they are trying to prove by this issue is my million dollar Q.And yes KS has given an immense popularity to Ram than he himself imagined and gained attention globally and as Sangs said they better realise that they cannot do anyth they want and we are not dumb to acknowledge whatever they write.
