Annathai adurar othikko othikko..

You might all have heard about this, and since I am in the land where it emerged, naane ungalukellam adhai pathi sollalam-nu vanten. I am talking about our dear Ms Shilpa Poppadum, sorry Shetty, who is supposedly facing racist bullying here in Big Brother. International controversy aanappuram naama adhai ignore panradhu nalla irukuma?

To begin with, Big Brother is a reality show - oru 10 per-a outside world-lerndu complete-a detach panni oru veetla potruvanga. Indha 10 perum eppadi adichukkaranga, illa romance panranga-nradhai 10 million makkal parpanga (kolangal, chitti-la ellam adichukardha vida inga innum bayangarama irukum)

This time, every inmate is a celebrity of some sort, but engerndhu avangaluku Shilpa-va include pannanum-nu thonicho therila, she also got in. Madam ulla varumpodhu she was so excited, "naan Indian culture-na enna-nu foreigners-ku katradhuku idhu oru opportunity" adhu idhunellam declare pannanga, not knowing what the house held for her. The rest were Danielle, ex Miss Britain, Donnie, a singer, Ken, a director, Jamain, MJ's brother , Jo, a pop singer and a few others.

After the show started, Shilpa was the only one who wasn't really doing anything, just orama utkarndhu pei muzhi muzhichitrundhanga enna panradhu-nu theriyama. Ennada ivanunga, ishtathuku dance adaranga, katti pidikaranga..naama enna panradhu indha kootathula-nra kavalai avanga mugathula.

Then started the fun - Jade-nra madam ulla vandhanga, this lady had taken part in BB in 2001 when she was a nurse, and endeared herself to the public by her naivety and started her own business after the show and is now worth 8 million pounds (thorayamma 64 koadi roobba)!! Ammani chumma round katti ellarayum imsai panna effect - oruthan suvareri gudhichi odiye poittan :)) Konja naal-la Jade-oda guru parvai Shilpa mela turn achu. Shilpa konjam nalla vera irukangala, so Jo & Danielle-ku erkaneve light-a jealousy. You should have seen the look in D's face when she saw Shilpa in one of the outfits - her jaw literally dropped :)) So when Jade started attacking Shilpa, she had the full support of D and Jo.

Shilpa edhu pannalum, J chumma Jackie Chan madhiri parandhu parandhu fight panvanga. For example, Shilpa poi D kitta "naan edhavadhu thappa pannitena, enna achu"-nu kekka ponanga following an incident, adhuku J and D confronted her asking why she is trying to spoil their friendship! And when Shilpa made some chicken dish, Jade "manushan thinbana indha araivekkatu sappada?" appadinu oru sound vittanga. Ingadhan racism topic emerged - Shilpa took a piece from one of the guys' plate and had it, adhai partha D asked if they eat with hands in India or china, and remarked S's hands might have been anywhere (Aama, naan partha varaikum ivangalum french fries ellam kaiyaladhan sapdaranga, appo eppadi sapdaranga? By first cleaning their hands with dettol in McDonalds?) Avalodhan! ella papers-layum this topic came up, and viewers started complaining to the channel about racism.

Ippadiye poitrundhadhu, J called S fake, dog and everything, and D was her henchman, supporting her. They basically had a problem with S being adored and worshipped in Bollywood, and having servants back in India - so adhellam vera izhuthanga. Enna irundhalum S Gandhi porandha naatlerndhu vandhirukanga illaya, so romba porumaiya "oru kannathil adithal, maru kannathai kattuven"-nu azhudhuttu irundhanga. But finally singathoda thalaiya seepala vara try pantanga J, she called S a liar: Shilpa was provoked but retorted diplomatically saying this may be J's claim to fame, but that she doesn't want to argue. Heated words were exchanged, Shilpa's were indeed diplomatic, whereas J was being outrageous. Later she spoke to D about Shilpa saying Shilpa Poppadum, Shilpa F***awalla etc. The justification she gave to BB for this was that she could only think of Indian dishes when trying to think of Shilpa's surname (appo f***awalla-nu dish ellam kelvipatrukanga pola, am surprised, naan kelvipattadhe illa). By now 33000 complaints were lodged against the show, J's perfume was taken off the shops' rack (3rd bestselling perfume), D's modelling contract was dropped by one of the companies, and the company sponsoring BB withdrew it's sponsorship. All channels were talking about this alleged racism, and Indian Tourist Dept made an open invitation to Jade in all papers inviting her to India to know more about it. (jade ippadiye niraya deal vangardhula killadi, in 2001 show, she displayed her poor geography knowledge that Airline chiefs offered her free air tickets to travel places ;) )

Meanwhile BB hinted to J and D that their comments were considered racist, so D thideernu katchi maari S kitta manippellam kettanga. J, just before the eviction day, made up with Shilpa, said sorry and declared she is not racist. But public chumma viduma, Gordon Brown-e sonnapuram J-va evict pannalana dharmama-nu they evicted her last night.

Now Jade faces police enquiry, 24 hour protection, loss of business unless she justifies her behavior in the house. Idhula comedy enna-na, Jade had a successful career before she came into BB, and that is going into smithereens now; and Shilpa, whose career was lukewarm before this, has potential market in Hollywood just because of this issue :)) Naatla edhu edhellamo prachanai irukumpodhu, indha oru controversy has had the capability of rousing international attention and make/break careers!
