The Long Hairs Story

Ok I do confess, since last one year I grew my hair quite long and a ponytail has popped up, enough to give a complex to my local spiritual guru. The air of hyper fashion flowing through all the directions, we can encounter John Abrahams in each and every nukkad of our cities and towns. God knows about our Villages, if they do have any long hair maniacs like me, No doubt the business is quite productive for the FMCG companies at least they will be happy to tap the rural market simultaneously in upcoming fiscal year.

Those were the days when bollywood gave songs like “Yeh hai reshmi zulfon ka andhera hai na ghabraiyeee.” with a feminine touch. But my little mind boggles when I try to imagine such type of song with a masculine touch. What ever it might be, I am also just so curious about the new hair products like Silk n Shine, Levon, Sunsilk 9 to 9 doing lots round at near by superstores. A sudden boom in Hair Industry is definitely going to prompt technical institutions to start new courses like B.E Hair Growth & Maintenance Engineering and in future there might be some possibilities of post graduation courses like, M.S in Hair Base Chemical Engineering. Eventually it will prompt student from various engineering colleges to write GRE or GATE exams, a good score will catapult them to most promising career. Just because of Hair - economy will develop, education system will develop, and employment opportunities will get enhanced.

Darwin Uncle gave the concept of evolution to the world in 19th century. Once upon a time I saw his portrait at Indian Museum Calcutta, he had quite a long hair and a beard too. I don’t know what’s the blind truth laying behind his hair and beard evolution. If he were alive at this time, he would have got lots of endorsement offer from various international FMCG brands like Revlon or L’Oreal.

A new commercial is doing lots of action on air. Yes Please.. Any guesses?? Our very own Shahrukh Khan is doting with four beauties of bollywood and yes at certain angle you can point out his long hair. General prediction, from soap endorsement he would be soon moving towards shampoos and conditioners in upcoming few months. Now what’s the use of acting skill? , All you need a long hair to present yourself as a complete package for 2 minutes commercials.

Dhoni, our new star batsman of Team India, A long hair maniac with excellent batting skill. The way he attracts ball at the pitch, with same frequency he attracts girls outside the pavilion. And if you ever see him endorsing any shampoo brand in near future, he will start removing his helmet after each and every single stroke, and a small caption will follow below the DD Sport or TenSport “Koi Baal bhi baka na kar sake- Clinic All Clear”.

Now the new wave of long hair is catching all over the country like an epidemic and above-mentioned super-hyped Indian idols has given me enough reason to grow my hair little longer. (The authentic cure is in the hands of my Pappu Bihari Barber Shop) But, A little girl of age 11 month named Urmi; completely bald climbed in an elevator for 2nd floor. By the time I moved down to her height … to take her in my arms, the so called melancholy baby cry shattered my ear drums, all because she got scared with my long hair look. I didn’t believe to have such a great impression on a girl of her age neither I can expect anything more from a grown up one.

PAPPU I am coming…
