WAS IT RIGHT FOR DHONI AND BHAJJI TO MISS PADMA AWARDS?
M S Dhoni and Harbhajan Singh did not turn up to collect their Padma Shri award in New Delhi on Tuesday citing personal and commercial commitments. What do you think?
Shahrukh Khan, Actor & Trumpeter-in-Chief of 'Kolkotta Knight Riders"
"Perhaps Dhoni and Bhajji didn't miss Padma very much. Those who miss Padma so much should go and get their own Padma instead of whining about Dhoni & Bhajji missing Padma."
MS Gill, Union Minister for Sports and Surrogate Father of Padma Sisters
"How dare Bhajji & Dhoni refuse to collect their Padmashrees? Who do they think they are? National icons? To be selected for such a 'National Honour' and then getting the opportunity of receiving it from the President of India is rare good fortune. From now onwards, anyone lucky enough to get a Padma would be forced to have her whether he wants her or not."
Miss Padmashree, younger sister of Padmabhushan & Padmavibhushan and daughter of Bharatratna
"Waaaaah!!! Nobody loves me. Nobody cares about me. They all lust only for Oscar Uncle or Booker-Hooker. How much more humiliation can I take? Now, my daddy wants to give me away forcibly. I would rather die than be given to someone who doesn't want me. Somebody please kill me."
Pratibha Patil, President of India and Chief Bestower of 'rare good fortune'
"Instead of forcing awardees to personally receive 'National Honor', wouldn't it be better if I was made Queen of India? Nobody would dare sending a substitute to the Queen of India. If my stars are properly aligned, I might be lucky enough to receive some protocol-breaking hugs too.."
