Our 'lil Superstars…!

4

Had a disturbed night, the last one...my sonny had a 'lil fever and was restless too. Even as I lay there staring at the slow moving ceiling fan, visuals of a 12-year-old boy hanging from the ceiling kept flashing in my mind. No, I hadn't seen 12-year-old Sushant Patil of Sharadashram school, neither was I at the scene to report. But the image was still there...vividly clear. Blame it on the media if you wish, these images of a kid hanging, bullets, violence, murder et al are all around us each moment. It's so easy for someone to point a finger at a current blockbuster and blame two main incidents of recent times as an aftermath influence from the movie! Most newspapers I'm going through in Mumbai have the story on the front page. It is more important and thought provoking 'coz Sushant is not the only case. 18....
