The recent suicide by Bollywood actress Jiah
Khan, gave vent to discussions about the prevailing depression and pressure in Bollywood.
But is it a matter of Bollywood or our normal lives too? We all as human beings
have wanted to be loved apart from the basic need for food, clothing and
shelter.
As she wrote in her letter that devoid of
love from her boyfriend she started to lose her confidence. Here is the thing
that became reason for her suicide attempt. She didn’t have any role offers
after the movie ‘Housefull’. Faced on with criticism she wanted someone to believe
in her. But her boyfriend could not give her love or the self assurance. Faced on
with disapproval on both career and love life she decided to end her life.
Love and money are the foremost important things
to our existence as human beings. But these become so important to our lives
that instead of being controlled by us. These start overpowering our thoughts and
actions. As teenagers, love plays an important part of our existence. Falling in
love, experiencing heartbreak and at last ending up eating dozen of chocolates
and tubs of ice cream. Romantic movies with mushy songs always make huge
profits on box office. We always try to find our perfect lives in these motion
pictures and try to visualize our lives as same. But these all are aimed at
making profits and do not show the reality.
There is need to understand the love and
not to be carried away its by mawkish definition. If you lack self confidence don’t
look or someone to make you feel important rather make yourself feel important.
Draw a distinction between what you want it to be or what really is.
