Shallow shallow!!

I was just going through one of my friend's blog and the first thing that struck me was, 'her home page is so nice, why isn't mine?'. Isn't it a bit shallow of me. I did not think about her posts or her style of writing, but thought of the looks. Oh well!!

This got me into thinking. Aren't most people like this nowadays. Outer beauty takes precedence over inner beauty. It's a cliched dialogue and everyone keeps talking about it. But how many people really follow it.

Take for example, Bollywood movies. If the heroine is dressed well, from a top designer, the produces assumes the movie will be a hit. Whether the story is a repeated one, whether the camera work is good, whether the lead actors are acting well, doesn't bother him. But the look of the movie should be chic. How shallow!!

And also, why is it that the heroines have to go through a complete makeover to win hero's heart? Just by changing her hair style, clothes, does the person inside her also change? Is the hero that dumb to understand this point?

Now, to more realistic examples. You are walking down a road with friends. As soon as a hep dressed girl passes by, all the guys are looking in her direction. When searching for a bride, the first specification a guy mentions is, 'she has to be beautiful and fair'. Like character and education don't matter at all. Oh well!!

We are the victims of 'Attraction of the outer appearance'!! Oh well!!
