| Don’t we all just love massages? Lounging in the luxury of a massage chair or, even better, lying on a mattress while it vibrates the spine gently but firmly — massages at home never felt so good.

| Musical politics | 30-OCT-09 |
|
| Kabir Suman, the maverick singer-cum-MP in Mamata Banerjee’s Trinamool Congress takes politics so seriously he manages to convert even his musical shows into mini-rallies. At his first performance in the capital after he became an MP, Suman chose not to sing his popular songs, and instead sang song to sympathise with the Maoists and slamming the West Bengal government. He also gave short speeches in between the songs. “Whatever I did in life, people said someone else had done it before. But I am the first singer to defeat CPI(M)”. As the winter chill set in on the open air stage, Suman said, “I am sure the CPI(M) is thinking that if I die in the cold there will be a by-election and they can win back the seat. But I will not die so easily.” He did announce though, that he would not contest the Lok Sabha election again. |
