16 Top personalities of 2016 who made it to the TV channels

2016 has ended in vociferous way. (Are you applauding or cursing standing in an ATM queue). Here are 16 top Indian personalities which made it to the TV channels headlines this year and gain much attention (Besides Modiji, he is always in headlines). Why writing about only 16 top personalities, because I was out of ink supply and could write about 16...well just enjoy.

Narendra Modi

His address is 7RCR. Whenever he says Mitron, everybody gets shock treatment. Whether it’s his dressing sense, decisions or his videsh yatra’s Modi Ji is still unchallenged. After ‘demon’etization (just for Aam Aadmi) decision, everybody is keen on next budget as well as vidhansabha elections in UP, as it will tell the future of BJP.

Sonam Gupta

She is popular because every man keeps her in his wallet. Even after demonetization BAPU has changed his profile picture, but Miss Sonam Gupta is still bewafa. If anybody finds Sonam Gupta, just tell her every bechara aashiq in this country is looking for her, and passing messages on currency notes. Not just this, even she is the most googled person this year...hey guys, don’t you have real girls aas-pass, just work on them.

Arvind Kejriwal

Mr. Khasiwaal (Oh, sorry Mr. Kejriwal, he had his treatment) knows how to be in news, coz any publicity is not negative publicity. Can you guess what’s his hobby, Oh...answer is easy, he likes to be trolled, that’s why he tweets a lot. And his best time pass...for Mr. Odd-Even, PM Modi is always odd, he never misses a chance to oppose government.

Shivpal and Akhilesh Yadav

(Dirty) politics of UP is full of family drama. Main characters are Chacha Shivpal and Bhatija Akhilesh. Staged or real that is the question. While daggers were drawn publicly between the too, till the Etawah wrestler Mulayam jumped into the fray and wrestled the two into an uncertain truce. Complicating the situation was one Amar Singh—one of India’s most notorious middlemen ever. Be rest assured, this chacha-bhatija movie is more entertaining than the Dharmendra-Randhir Kapoor starrer, and the last of it has not been heard yet in 2016. The next reel would be played in the backdrops of UP Elections in 2017.

Mamta Banerjee

Jagat didi for every Bengali is a powerful politician and unopposed as a person. Aggressive on Modi government, this lady could beat her opponents hard with her sarcastic one liners. She loves her white saree with border.

Mukesh Ambani

He is richest man, no doubt. But he is also making you richest (Don’t you dream too much of green notes) in terms of data. Free ka data hai, use karo ‘JIO’ jee bhar ke.

Cyrus Mistry

When Cyrus was said ‘Tata’, everyone in business world was ‘Mistry’fied.(Is there any word like mistryfied, or I just invented it, anyways.) He stepped into Ratan Tata shoes, but it just bit him hard. By the Way Mistry drives a Safari Storme.

Arnab Goswami

When ‘Nation wants to know’ fame Arnab Goswami calls it quit from Times Now, everyone was shocked. Recently at a function in Jaipur, He promised to not “let down” people’s faith in him, as he is coming up with a new venture called Republic, which he believes would change the ‘perspective’ of journalism Anyways, congratulations on your start-up.

Anil Bokil

A member of Pune’s Arthakranti Sansthan, this mechanical engineer’s artha kranti has created more than a kranti in India in the recent few weeks. Yes, many believe Bokil to be the real ‘demon’ of demonetization as it was his audience with PM Modi after which the seeds of the idea were sown. For a man who calls the universe his family and who last watched a movie in 1992, not surprisingly Bokil has attracted more than his fair share of detractors, post November 8. While that is understandable, Bokil too is critical of PM Modi as he feels that the surgery was done without administering anaesthesia. “I had 4 proposals—no tax except customs and import duties, single point of TDS routed through a bank, no tax on cash transactions and withdrawal of all high denomination notes above 50. Now Modi has done only the fourth thing and that too partially,” cries Bokil. Will heeding fully to Bokil’s advice lessen the demonetization pain?

Virat Kohli

He is 27, Delhi boy, Multi-tasker, brand value worth Rs 100 Cr. (Hey girls, Don’t over think, it’s not a matrimonial ad). He is already #taken by Anushka. With his ‘Virat’ scores Kohli has gained test captaincy and soon he could replace captain cool.

P V Sindhu

Her mobile phone was taken away. She was not allowed chocolates or other fast but attractive foods. There was no possibility of a boyfriend or any social life. While these might look insurmountable to this 1995 born gangly lass, for Pusarla Venkata Sindhu there was light at the end of the tunnel and it came in the form of an Olympic silver medal. Under the strict regime of Gopichand, this Hyderabad-based girl who used to travel 56 km daily to reach the coaching camps, Sindhu had shown ample testimony of her desire and grit to hit pay dirt. Long in Saina Nehwal’s shadow, 2016 was when she came onto her own—not just Olympics, in other Grand Prixs too she has been Indian badmintons flagbearer. After the Olympics finals, she got her biryani and mobile back—she also got a BMW; now, no doubt there will be several ‘aspiring’ boyfriends, but looks unlikely, Ms Sindhu will have time for them.

Disha Patani

Dairy Milk Bubbly girl is quite popular after doing this chocolate ad. She has also done MS Dhoni. Popularity just rose coz boys can’t get their eyes off her. Guys why don’t you understand she is not so easy, ‘PATA’ni paoge, Tiger aa jayega.

Priyanka Chopra

Desi girl had her makeover, and became Videshi in Hollywood. Ms. Quantico, has earned International fame while she keep coming in different chat shows time to time. Recently she has become brand ambassador for Assam Tourism, She will drive the campaign, “Awesome Assam”.  Will she get back to India to say this, or she will just shoot it from LA.

Vijay Mallya

He is in news for quite some times. Vijay ‘Kingfisher’ Mallya has fled pasting choona to banks. Two non-bailable warrants were issued against him. Par ‘Maal’lya to gaya UK. While his Goa Villa is not getting any buyers, also his private plane is waiting for kabadiwala at the airport.

Kanhaiya Kumar

Viral hona hai, to kuch naya karo. So, Kanhaiya Kumar took part in a controversial event in JNU where anti-national slogans were raised and made it to every single national to gali mohalla news channel. What’s your next plan bro, are you going to make a political party too.

Trupti Desai

The lady who stormed into the hearts of Gods—well literally, in Shani Shingnapur temple, in the Mahalakshmi Temple, in the Trimbakeshwar Shiva Temple; and in the right secular sentiment at Haji Ali dargah too. The Home Science graduate who founded the Bhumata Brigade and was part of Anna Hazare’s crusade, she was incensed that all women between 10 and 50 were not allowed in these temples or even more insultingly these religious sanctums needed to be purified with milk if even by mistake a woman before menopause has entered. Reason: according to the religious bigots, all menstruating women are impure. Desai’s scientific rejoinder: without ‘men’struation, there will be no men (and these bigots are all males). While Phase 1 of her war is over (the Sabarimala temple in Kerala is her next target), the battle is yet to be won as there are (not surprisingly perhaps as women are women’s worst enemy) many females too still opposing her protests.
