Prithviraj And so, the most eligible bachelor
in Kerala is finally ‘ officially’ hitched, putting to end all the
speculation and suspense. Well,
Prithviraj’ s ‘ Urumi’ maybe breaking box office records, but
the actor’ s popularity has certainly taken a beating, if the
reactions of the womenfolk in
the city to his hush hush
wedding are anything to go by.
They ranged from a
disinterested ‘ Really? Who is the girl?’ to an ardent ‘ I feel betrayed!’ But what everyone, fan or foe, wanted to know was
just this- Why the secret? Saranya, Vidhu, Sreeja and
Nileena, all masscom students,
say that they don’ t have any problem with their favourite
actor getting married, but they
have completely lost trust in his
words. “He always pretended to be this righteous person who is
all ethical and moral. But what
has he done now? Tomorrow he
might get divorced and marry
another girl, and we will never
get to know about it,” says Saranya. Vidhu seconds her
opinion. “Getting married is of course his personal thing but
why lie? Last week he said
specifically in a magazine that he
has no idea what everyone is
talking about. And we all heard
his mother saying the wedding will be on May 1.” Sreeja also feels that she has lost faith in
the actor. “We used to think that he was the only one among
the actors who means what he
says, but not any more.” So will they stop watching
Prithiviraj’ s films from now? “That’ s an entirely different matter. We will continue to
watch good movies, whether he
is in it or not. But he is definitely
going to lose some of his female
fans.” And there were also many who said that the news meant
nothing to them because ‘ they never liked him anyway.’ “ He is so full of hot air,” says Anjana, a medical student. However, not everyone is as
balanced. Preethi, a second year
engineering college student in
the city, burst into tears on
watching the news on TV, ‘ more out of shock than anything
else’ according to her friends. Preethi refused to comment on
the issue, saying she had
‘ nothing to say now that it was all over.’ And wait, the young and single
are not the only ones shocked
by the news. Thresya, a maid at
a ladies’ hostel in the city, says. “I’ m sure all you girls had your eye on him and secretly wished
he would marry you. I’ m a bit too old for him, otherwise I
would have my eye on him too,” says the feisty lady, well into
her forties. “The good thing is all of you can go to sleep
peacefully now. You don’ t need to waste your time on him
anymore,” she laughs. But Annamma, another maid,
disagrees. “He is a good boy. I’ m sure he never gave false promises to any girl. But why the
suspense? Why couldn’ t he have said that he had a girl in mind
though it is not the girl in
question?” And what do they think of THE
girl in question, right now the
first lady of Malayalam cinema?
“Of course we don’ t like her,” echo the die-hard fans. “Not at all a good match. We thought he
would marry Samvrutha Sunil.” And the final verdict? “No use thinking about what is over.
There will be more Prithvirajs
coming up.” and “Being a public figure, they should have been
more open with the media.”
