Padma Awards and other award ceremonies

Like every year this year also Govt announced the Padma awards, felt really happy for some names.I never understood the critera or eligibility of these awards, This year VVS Laxman got Padma Shri, I am not sure why he was ignored last year over MS Dhoni and Harbhajan, who got it last year and they skipped the ceremony despite being in India. Sania Mirza got in 2006, may be that year she would have reached to the third round of any tournament. Saif Ali Khan is still wondering why he got one ? They should give one to Rakhi Sawant too.

I am pretty sure that one day Sonia Gandhi, Rahul Gandhi, Priyanka Gandhi, may be her husband too will get 'Bharat Ratna'. Can somebody explain that how come Rajiv Gandhi got Bharat Ratna got 8 years before great JayPrakash Narayan ?


Last week there were lot of Bollywood award ceremonies, Suddenly everywhere there was a special award for Dharmendra, just because his movie release is round the corner. One award ceremony, there was a special award in some weird category for Aishwarya Rai and Amitabh Bachchan. They have introduced so many categories to please everyone. Shahrukh is crashing in every award show with his no-more-funny jokes, he can do anything for money. Artificial smiles, plastic emotions were everywhere. Actors like Aamir, Ajay Devgn, Naseer are very correct in not attending these ceremonies.

-Hari.
