Importance of Controversy
Written by Anurag Bhateja on March 4, 2010 – 8:48 am -If we look for the definition of controversy, it can be defined as “Controversy is a state of prolonged public dispute or debate, usually concerning a matter of opinion”. In our daily life, we come across a lot of controversies which is related to us in either or the other way. It can be about family, work, nation or anything. Each and every situation is handled in a different way so that the controversy can be avoided as much as possible.
Now, have you ever thought if there is any significance importance of this word? Why there are so many controversies around us when this is a negative word? The answer is, its important! Ask a politician or a News channel about the importance. If there is no controversy around, what will they do? If such situation occurs, they won’t have any work to do! They literally are earning their bread from controversies only.
For us, the bloggers, this particular word can do magic. I am not saying that you should concentrate only on controversial topics, but there is no harm in creating or following one, once in a blue moon. What happens is, we humans are always running behind whats happening around us and try to find how the particular thing is affecting us. Keeping this fact in mind, you can work on either starting a new controversy (which is VERY dangerous) or can start following one and add your views on it. For example, if you look for the phrase “Suicide and its preventions”, you will find numerous bloggers who write about it and tell how to avoid that particular phase of life. Another example can be noticed as “death of Micheal Jackson”, or “affairs of tiger woods” or even “god exist or not”.
The thing is, talking about such things sometimes help, though not always. Lets take example of some famous people. I am sure you remember the time of Bill Clinton. Everything went so well and then Monica literally ruined his career. Shashi Throor, the young face of Indian politics, is always in controversies because of his statements either on twitter or in meeting. George W Bush will always remain a idol for controversies because of his decision of attacking on different nations. How can any Indian forget the face of Rakhi Sawant (I really do not want to remember her for any reason even for controversies) or Rahul Mahajan (really can not stand his laughing style).
In the above given examples, the image of every person is not so good in eyes of public. The reason could be that they are celebrities and politicians. Famous and soft targets of Media. You are not. I know this is rude but you really are not! You can play with things around to a certain limit. The world of Internet is all about the number game. How many visitors you are getting, how many people are sharing your work and in end of the day how much revenue you made. Working and writing on happening controvercies (keeping in mind that your words won’t harm you) can bring a huge number of traffic to your blog/website.
You can play with words. Without taking any name or pointing anyone you can write about a lot of things and a lot of stuff happening around you. Remember, the biggest scams came into lime light just because of controversies. Controversies created by people like you, like me or anyone in this world can do the work in both constructive and destructive way. The only thing you need is to decide how big shot you want to play keeping yourself safe

Photographs Never Happen! Really?
Written by Anurag Bhateja on December 29, 2009 – 6:50 pm - Photography, an endless universe of possibilities. The only thing you need is passion towards the thing in your hand. The sound of shutter is as exotic as moaning 
as it excites you. Like the words, photographs speak. They sometimes, speak louder than words.
Now, I have heard this phrase many times that photographs are always created. They are created the the person behind the camera. The hidden mind evaluates, calculates and then press the button to capture the moment. Okay, agreed. To make a good sell-able/exhibit-able photograph, we need to do a lot of work but sometimes the [...] Continue Reading…
