The (always) right white shirt

“Florals for spring? Groundbreaking,” famously scoffed Meryl Streep as fashion editor Miranda Priestly in the epic film The Devil Wears Prada. Perhaps her team should have taken a cue or two from India where we celebrate Holi, or the first day of spring, wearing white (and later dousing it with coloured powder).

Forestalling foreigners

According to an Irish legend, when life draws to a close, you hear the doomsday clock that bears your name ticking the time away… tick-tick-tick-tick. Across the pond in the US, popular Chinese video-sharing app TikTok hears the ominous ticking clock. The US siege of TikTok is about data security. It is also about global dominance, protectionism and the comeback of an age-old mantra: “Foreign Phobia”. The line now blurs between western capitalists and eastern socialists.

Hear the night knock, seize the day

Jayaprakash Narayan hadn’t expected his arrest on the night of June 25, 1975. Yet, when he saw two scribes, who were on a midnight prowl at the police station where he was quietly taken to, he told them, “Vinaash kaale vipareet buddhi.” The words proved prophetic. The imposition of Emergency, the midnight arrests of opposition leaders, and his utterance of that line of native wisdom contributed to Indira Gandhi’s undoing.
