Star Indias new initiative of reprising the role of mothers on our daily lives is not only wonderful but in some senses a genius stroke that might paint some good marks in today’s world. And who apart from Kohli, Dhoni and Rahane who already command an army of youth towards a mission of passion could have been made icons for this marvelous step to reassure the commitment towards our mothers. If not anything else it will definitely stop the constant heap of judgment and annoying questioning of a professionals dedication towards his professionalism. 2007 world cups demise was met with horrifying consequences and backlash from the media.
Now, just in case (let us seriously hope not) any time Dhoni and his men deliver a menacingly lower performance than the usual expectations, at least people will realize they are sons of more than hardworking mothers just like you and me and we will judge them less. New channels won’t blabber stuff about them and angry mobs won’t burn their posters because now there is a soft spot attached to it. In fact politicians should use this strategy too. They should straight away wear their mothers name out in front and get out of stereotyped false claims of corruptions and usual politician stuff. All anti racial slurs and communal disharmony can be won by straight away telling your haters your mother name and then making them realize their own love for their mothers. That way it will be a matter of short time when Kashmiris also use this strategy and come up with their mother’s names on their chest and Indian soldiers doing in the same during encounters with hostile militants. Any time a waiter accidently spills water on food on you then instead of his name written on his pocket he would show you his mother’s name and all your anger and irritation would wash away quickly. Any musician or performance artist should stand and pay tribute to his mother in complete attention gain control of the audience’s bias judgements.
