Dear India,

January isn’t even over and I’m depressed because I have lost my balls. It’s not just me. Everyone has lost their balls. It’s an epidemic. Open a newspaper and you see politicians with no balls blaming actors with small balls for destroying Brand India, or policemen with no balls arresting a comedian who may or may not have balls for making a joke about someone who – well, never mind, about his balls. The point is we are a nation of cowards willing to bend over for those in power, but we are too weak to help those in need.

Here’s hoping this year will be different.

Love,

Radhika Vaz

The. Lady. Looking. For. Her. Balls.
