Krishna Shastri Devulapalli | The needy universe of social media parents
Deccan ChronicleThe other day, I saw this post by a #ProudMother who was Facebook-felicitating her only daughter for completing five whole years in a particular field. Considering the preceding post on my timeline was a retired gentleman’s low-angle selfie that allowed us a view of his brain via his nostrils, with the words ‘In Delhi’ which had garnered 295 likes, my surprise was surprising. Other than the fact that this role model had performed the groundbreaking, awe-inspiring, death-defyingly selfless task of switching jobs four times in the gruelling, backbreaking, life-threatening, incredibly looooooooong five years, there wasn’t much else. “I can’t thank the heavens enough for having blessed us with this invaluable treasure of the seven seas, this Hrithik without an extra thumb, who will reach the moon one day like Lance Armstrong. If memory serves me right, it was “If you touch one more of my Size-3 brushes, I’ll brain you with that bottle of poster-colour.” Have the ‘commoners’ learnt this from celebrity dads and moms?
