The publication called "Weekly" (The Illustrated Weekly of India) oft referred to in this article was literally destroyed by a pompous windbag called Pritish Nandy.
From a brilliant piece of journalistic excellence, this bong-dong managed to transform it into tabloid trash complete with ghastly centerfolds of equally trashy example/excuses of/for Indian femininity.
This hebdomadal publication which under the stewardship of Khushwant Singh was a treat to read and savour every week was turned into a journal filled putrid and lascivious junk!
It is no surprise that the real talent like Ms. Hyder that propped this venture departed with Nandy%u2019s arrival and ominously pointed to it eventual demise!!
