5 Fairy Tales for the Modern Indian Man

At the onset, let me do a Pritam.

This is not completely my idea. A post has gone viral on Tumblr, titled ‘6 Fairy Tales for the Modern Woman’. This is a take on it.

Mind you, I have not copied that post. I have merely been ‘inspired’ by it. Which means that I can take the essence of it and reproduce it for my own benefit, and still get the credit for it.

God bless Pritamda.

Now, being the Modern Indian Man is a tough thing, what with the skewed up sex ratio that begins from 618 women per 1000 men. While the rest of the country on average fares slightly better, there are other issues to deal with – so many religions, so many languages, and so many cultures. In such a scenario, is it possible to have a fairy tale?

If you have watched a Karan Johar film, you will thump your bottle of Gatorade on the table and say an emphatic ‘Yes’. So how would the fairy tale go? I made a few guesses.

So here goes!
