Abuse of a National award

What a crappy start to the day, First thing i read in the newspaper (surprise, i do read the newspaper) is

"Aishwarya Rai awarded a 2009 Padma Shri for her contributions to Indian cinema."

I can't, no matter how hard i try, find one instance of contribution from this person to Indian Cinema. What the hell has she contributed to Indian Cinema. Everyone knows that 10 years down, she will be a bygone, replaced by yet another pretty face. Apparently all you need to win a Padma Shri award is to have a pretty face.

Keeping aside the so called contributions, she is undoubtedly one of the worst actresses in the world of Indian Cinema. Not a single role worth its celluloid. All she's ever stood on was her pretty face and of more recent times all she does on screen is reveal more skin.

Some say that her achievements of Miss World was a great thing. I beg of differ, it was a beauty pageant, and she signed up to win for her own self. After that she modeled and eventually fell into the actor wanna be bucket. And through it all she has been rewarded amply with riches and fame. Its not like she did all of it selflessly. How can they award someone like that bimbo with hard working selfless people like Sister Nirmala is beyond me.

I'm sure this is a move by one of the political parties in trying to rope in the actress or one of her relatives in to or in active support of the party so as to foist the vote of the multitudes of stupid adoring fans. They have demeaned all the previous award winners through this action.
