sania's dress code
by sameer agarwal on Sep 16, 2005 10:50 PM  Permalink 

Yes Mr. Shenoy, it's not possible to outlook the attire which sania (mirza) was wearing. do we have a choice? is this what we r trying to talk about. or r we talking about what the maulvi has to say. let's asnwer the next question. does maulvi or anybody for that matter have a right to say what she should wear and what she should not. i really don't understand first what is she a muslim or an indian on an individual. i think she's an individual who has every right to do justice to herself to her beliefs. She's playing tennis for what ever resons that's her wish and it's her business. i'm sure she would not care and she should not if u watching her or not. i watched her not because she was wering a sikrt because an indian girl was playing. i don't know if any one of u saw the indian flag before the match when they gave u details of every player in US open. u know what when i saw that flag i got goose flash it made made me yell with pride WOW! it gives me hope to see this country doing something.

and we r here talking bout what she can wear or she can't wear because she's a muslim. ok she's a muslim but i feel she's first an individual and secondly an indian.religion is choice.

Sania and the dress code
by Shyam Sunder on Sep 16, 2005 10:39 PM  Permalink 

Obviously Mr.Shenoy watches tennis for all the wrong reasons.

Obviously Mr.Shenoy believes that a maul-vi can maul-u, maul-me, or maul-anyone in a democratic set-up.

Obviously, Mr.Shenoy opines because he is paid to do so.

Obviously, Mr.Shenoy needs to stop using his hat as a mic.

My thoughts...
by Arif M. on Sep 16, 2005 10:37 PM  Permalink 

Is the Indian Muslim community so problem free that the "guardians" / "leaders" of the religion can focus on issues so insignificant such as the length of a tennis player's skirt?

Cheating is so rampant in many trades within our community. It is especially painful when phony traders with an intention to cheat, join a Jamaat and exploit their position with impunity- ESPECIALLY AGAINST OTHER MUSLIMS. I've travelled quite a bit, and I haven't even seen a decibel raised about this issue- leave alone action.

How about the case of many Gulf proponents, aged 70+ who just marry a poor girl and dissapear overnight? I haven't heard a decibel out here either...

It hurts much, as an Indian Muslim, for me to see a huge concentration of youths begging aimlessly without a vision/ goal/ opportunity in Friday prayers. It also pains me to see a huge segment of aged people bearing the blasting sunlight, begging for change.

In the light of all this, I don't think it is appropriate for Islam's "torch bearers" to highlight an issue so menial as the length of a girl's skirt- unless of course, the "torch bearers" themselves want nothing but publicity...please do some social work first!!!

Sania Mirza and her dress code
by Joel on Sep 16, 2005 10:36 PM  Permalink 

Hello readers n everybody, lets not try to be too much no(i)sy abt Sania's dress . Shes got the talent to win, and lets appreciate and encourage it rather than worrying about what is comfortable for you and for the person concerned. If anybody has a genuine concern about doing something good for India, there are a quite a lot of important issues where everybody can devout their thoughts and action for the overall betterment of our beloved country.

sania mirza dress code
by k.vg.dayal on Sep 16, 2005 10:35 PM  Permalink 

Dear sir, I hurt immensely that moulis who had no work than sitting in the mosque and disturb neibours by shoutings their tounge. Have they got guts to play tennis or train their children to lead the next generation. I appreciate sania for her achivement and also I feel greedy that she is not my daughter. if muslim comunity force her I am ready to accept her as my third daughter and support her to strive for winning next year wimbolden,Us and french open. I am a brahmin I love childrence whether son or daughter to shine in the world and I am proude. No body likes their children stand naked . we should also change acccording to the present trend after all Islam exsit only by 514 A.d. there are many others senior to this religion and have no objection in compete with the 21 st generation come on come out of the cell be brave show your talent and exelence to the world. Covering your figure by black burka doesnt represent there is something special than other women. The Creater Allah Jessus or Ram are one and the same why this moulis disperate about it. I recall my old days in 1973 I being A Negetive blood group (Brahmin) donated my blood to a muslim pregnent my question is whether a

We, the fans of Sania Mirza, read everything about her..But I never thought that I will read such a stupid article , commenting about her dresses...
Please..leave her alone...She is a great player and has a potential to create history...Don't try to put her in the stupid limits of religion.

None of the maulvi's business
by Paritosh on Sep 16, 2005 10:20 PM  Permalink 

To attain excellence in any field whatsoever, you, more often than not,
need to break the shackles of conventions, norms and 'beliefs' (as
opposed to rational conclusions). It remains to the individual to decide
which path he/she wants to take. No individual (since we all have our
emotional sides) can be absolutely comfortable moving away from the
norms of society. The one who has the courage to do so is the one who
has the highest chances of success. I think this is what Sania has done,
and the maulvi has no business interfering with the business of
someone out to strive for excellence. But for people like the maulvi,
probably India would have had many more success stories.
