Even the Copernicus tells you that it is not the sun that makes the world go round, as intensely as any businessman. Apparels, perfumes, beauty products, entertainment services, gifts, books, theatres, music, chocolate industries and what not… have been encashing on this popular feeling n emotion since time immemorial. All this V day is just another excuse to pay a token tribute to this business-friendly emotion. Celebrators, either aware or the dumb-wits, are just consumers and form critical mass from demand side.
Lo & behold, here comes another aggressive set of EXPLOITERS (yeah, they exploit “V day” resource for political mileage), who proclaim to protect our “Culture” by stalling these V-day activities. And extension of this drama is formation of groups that are supported by the rest of the political parties. It seems their motto is “anti anti V-day” and want to gives roses for free in the city.
People of the second paragraph support V-day and would be more than happy if janta celebrates and indulges in festivities. Read as buying, using and consuming. And people in their neighboring (third) paragraph are all jet-set to create havoc for those who celebrate. And some want to act as saviors. But my question of interest is, during these times of recession, whom do you support if you claim to be concerned about India and her economy?
I would support all of them; it is because:
People who are for V day, definitely celebrate (let them celebrate in any way) by consuming either products or services. It adds to the day’s economic activity of our country. Shoots up GDP. So are my thumbs up for these cracked eggs.
Political assholes and their aide, who are against this, would surely need thousands of hooligans (unemployed loitering men) and months of preparation to execute their plan countrywide. This ensures that somebody gets employment, which keeps them occupied and fetches some lucre into their wallet. Unemployment decreases….Shoots up GDP.
On the V-day, people that paint the town Red and others who pain these Painters by breaking loose in public parks, ok ok sort of hotels n restaurants (do observe…they never attack Taj, Le Meridian, Little Italy sorts) and (wo)man handling the roadside Juliets and Romeos (yes, even Hir n Ranjas too). The consequence of this is snowball effect and is economic windfall for the country’s commerce. Doctors get more patients, drugs are sold more, more repair services, more TRP, pre/on/aftermath increase in media…and the list of spin-offs is endless. Shoots up GDP.
If you really favour country’s economic growth, you would support them all.
P.S: If you love someone, every moment spent in her presence is special. You would always want to gift her, pamper her or wtever. Any excuse chalega. So V-day could be treated as just another excuse…hehe. BTW, my sis, Kavya's birthday is on 14th of Feb.
