The best part of the Times Now presentation was the panel discussion they had with Alyque Padamsee, Farooque Sheikh, adman Suheil Seth and actor Shefali Chaya.
Suheil Seth was awesome when he very articulately spoke in his impeccable English bashing up the politicians verbally, taking names of each and everyone. He called them a bunch of wimps. Bravo! He didn't spare anyone. Not even the Prime-Minister.
"We are the biggest hypocrites when it comes to honesty and purpose."he said and appealed to everyone to boycott the elections till public woes are not solved. He even pointed at the way a shining India was lifting bodies without any dignity. Making a rightful observation, he touched upon our inefficiency to respect our heroes and to immortalise them. He even spoke of how it's difficult for a common man to reach Alibaug from Mumbai while we have these Johnnies coming on their Gemini dinghies landing on the shore of Mumbai.
Man! This guy spoke from his heart and hence it felt good listening to him.

If We Must Die
If we must die, let it not be like hogs
Hunted and penned in an inglorious spot,
While round us bark the mad and hungry dogs,
Making their mock at our accursèd lot.
If we must die, O let us nobly die,
So that our precious blood may not be shed
In vain; then even the monsters we defy
Shall be constrained to honor us though dead!
O kinsmen! we must meet the common foe!
Though far outnumbered let us show us brave,
And for their thousand blows deal one death-blow!
What though before us lies the open grave?
Like men we'll face the murderous, cowardly pack,
Pressed to the wall, dying, but fighting back!
....Claude McKay (1889 – 1948)
