Things that we can't do - Take 1
A Manipuri, how handsome or pretty he/she is, stands very little - almost nil - chance of becoming a Bollywood star like Salman Khan or Preity Zinta. You know the answers: First the language, second the Korean looks we are born with, and third our different cultural ethos. Can you imagine Kamala committing a "Murder" in the shoes of Mallika Sherawat? Would Medha agree to star in Jism as the seductress, the role originally essayed by Bipasha Basu, complete (or incomplete) with G strings and suggestive lingeries? Can any Manipuri hunk holler like "Kutte kamine Main tera Khoon Pijawunga," with as much gay abandon as Dharmendra? Just ponder.

(I will be serialising on this theme for a while. Check out daily, and send me your thoughs too. May be I will compile them into an article)
