HAUNT tak to theek hai mujhe dar hai woh yeh haath kaatkar le jaayegi
But as they say "pen is mightier than the sword"
Meri himmat to dekho yeh line main ek journo ko maar rahi hoon
I was picking a song a few chapters ago on Youtube and some how it slipped to a interview of Doordarshan newsreaders from 1970s and 1980s. (Anyone between 15-30 can stop reading now. Sorry!!😆 )
Anyway... the gal interviewed Gitanjali Aiyar, Tejeshwar Singh, Salma Sultan and Shammi Narang
SALMA WORE THAT SIGNATURE ROSE under her ear
Salma said she was told NOT to wear it by some, as it "DILUTES the seriousness of a news caster's role". 😲Tch tch tch Doordarshan and its rules🤣 If only they bothered to send the DG of Doordarshan to the US back then they would have seen way more than roses,... cleavage, thighs and what not on news persons here...
I bet DD has loosened up quite a bit now...
I recall, we were too young to be doing that back then but would watch with bated breath when Salma would say "Ab agla samachar RAMAN SE" WITH A COY SMILE. JV Raman wore a wig I think and thick glasses and was stoic... Salma was soft ethereal and elegant...😆 When the news is dull you force the news readers to entertain you...
