Postage Stamps & Tanushree Dutta

I was rolling on the floor laughing after I read this article.

Stamps featuring Ponds Miss India 2004 winner and Bollywood actress Tanushree Dutta has been released by the Jharkhand government. Stamps and Postcard featuring the damsel has been brought out to acknowledge her achievements.

Now I never knew that winning the Miss India title was achievement for a state to bring out a stamp in recognition of the winner. Its just been a year since she has won the title, and what has she achieved in these 2 years, other than act in two movies and also show some skin.

If Miss India winners were to be honored, then how come Tanushree got honored before people like Aishwarya Rai and Nafisa Ali? I have nothing against Tanushree, but I cannot comprehend the stupidity of the state government!!!

Maybe the Kerala Government should take a cue and honor the undisputed queen, who acts in movies which cater to the needs of a particular age group. Atleast she has been carrying the entire industry of movies for that age group on her shoulders, which in itself is an achievement!!!

There are stamps with Gandhi and now stamps with movie stars (or movie people).

Where is the country going?

@ Gram:

The silk girl??? Yeah.. she too deserves the stamps, but considering the fact that she is not alive now, we would definitely give preference to the lady from Kerala.

@ Thanu:

Wow! This is too much. People getting on to the stamps for nothing. Any idea which snap they used? Was it the one from Chocolate where she kisses Imran Hashmi :)
