Rajdeep Sardesi lost any respect I had for him when he, like many others, sat on the Radia tapes to save his corrupt media colleagues from embarrassment(that is the most charitable motive for his silence). Now, in this video he calls M.F.Husain one of India's finest artist-
Now, my respect for Sardesai is in negative territory and falling. Anybody who calls Husain a fine artist needs to his something examined. You don't even need an ounce of grey matter -just your eyes. But the question is - are you going to believe them? Unfortunately, too many of our elites prefer to negate that what is obvious out of fear -fear of being branded fools and boors. Take a look at a Husain-
and now explain what is so great about it. Just try.
Sardesai does art as well as he does objective journalism. That Anjolie Ela Menon and Vadhera have a vested interst in bad art is a given - She makes it and he peddles it, both making an unholy packet in the process. What is Sardesai's excuse? May I offer him the same body of water -chullu bhar pani -that this blog offered Husain?
