Mimoh No More

Yesterday, while checking out the movie listing in the paper I came across something called Jimmy. There was a person called Mimoh on the poster who is the son of Mithun Chakraborty. I was morbidly glued to that picture of him, awed at his audacity and stupidity.

Audacity in daring to be in the public eye and stupidity in not eschewing movies and starting a business instead. I don't know, import-export, computer hardware or something.

Abraham Lincoln is said to have been considered ugly. But he was classily ugly. Mimoh is an eyesore on the planet. His crass ugliness takes your breath away. (Perhaps he could think of doing villainous roles with lots of make up, even a mask, no more) He should be fined and made to apologise for appearing in public.

Changing the subject, I saw that old lady in Khan Market again last week. She's found a station. There wasn't a mad rush to buy her puppets or anything but at least she had a place and she wasn't being chased off. If puppets appeal to you, buy from her. There is also a blind man who walks around Khan Market selling the most delicious incense sticks. Any time it strikes your fancy, buy from him.
