MSN India proved it again…

Posted in It Sucks ! by Savvy? on March 8, 2006

MSN India proved it again that they only see India through thier cheap, bollywood glasses. I have once reported on the same issue with MSN india Portal here. I am ok if they are targeting to a specific group of audience in India who only want to read and with movie stuff and movie stars, gossips and other stupid stuff. But If MSN India is trying to be a leader in India Portal wars, I think it is completely destroying itself and going towards a dead end.

Look at thier woman’s day special page.

Any Indian woman who knows what are the strengths & great attributes of a woman would laugh at this site. I still not able to digest that a movie star with a temporary glamour can gain a 1st position beating some great women in India there on the same page like Sudha Murthy, Sania Mirza, Kiran Mazumdar etc. These women made the country proud and guiding the next generations towards the self independance from any sort of issues and path towards ultimate success.

Let’s take aishwarya’s case : A normal woman..entered in to modelling, someone made her act,(she is still not good in that) and won Miss World, had been in to lot of issues with some other movie co-stars for many bad reasons… what else? I don’t think there is something that the women in India could learn from her…It’s just crazy that MSN India thinks aishwarya comes on first place if you think about great women in india.

I am repeating…MSN India…Grow up !
