Her best-friend labeled had labeled her a ‘blog-a-holic’, something Sakshi completely denied but within new that it was true to its very word. Blogging had opened a whole new-door for her, a place where she could just be herself - think for herself - vent her emotions and thoughts. Her personal blog had practically become a third home and it had taken quite a few months for her to get noticed and a special place for herself in the virtual desi-neighbourhood. Not a writer by any means, at times she would be applauded for her women-centric posts and at times ripped-apart by other bloggers for her feminist views or for not dressing up her words in a perfect manner. Couple of months back, she had written a post, “Not so ordinary women” - on the role women in today’s journalism. It was very much inspired by the then famous sting operation, ‘Duryodhana’. The center role in the success of that news was a brave lady named ‘Suhasini Raj’. This post Sakshi considered being one of her best work and something that was very much close to her heart.

According to the profile, Renny belonged to a royal family, was a classical dancer from California and had landed offers in Bollywood. They even managed to get her couple of interviews with other newspapers and TV channels, all stating her to be the next big thing to have hit Bollywood. The whole farce went on for practically 2 months; she was even clicked with director Subhash Ghai by a newspaper, which called her, Ghai’s new find. Anyways once the story went out, according to Mid-Day, they have been bombarded with various reactions from all section of the society. Celebrities like Marc Robinson and Shobha De have applauded Renny’s brave act, since her chances of being exposed were very high. Frankly speaking, what’s so freaking stingy about this piece of so-called expose? In my opinion, all they have done is wasted Rs. 3 lakhs by giving so much attention to something which most of us readers are aware off. We all are aware and have seen real examples, where the media and PR agencies have made ordinary actors/newbie, superstars overnight. So how was this effort different and important to the public? Agree, the newspaper is more of a ‘time-pass’ kind and they too like their other media counterparts ‘butt-lick’ and at times ‘abuse’ celebrities for no apparent reasons. However in the past they have high-lighted noteworthy issues which have been appreciated all around. Now days, the MSM seems to be basically abusing the term ’sting operation’ by doing write-ups and exposé on not so relevant ‘Page 3′ circuit or for that matter ‘Bollywood’, remember the ‘casting couch’ incident. A sting operation should be something that stings the person/group on which it is targeted and most importantly it should sting ‘us’, the society. It should bring to light the wrongs done by the government, media, etc. A perfect example would be ‘Operation Duryodhana’ carried out by CobraPost and Aaj Tak. Another thing that I find quite dumb and thereby question; what was so commendable and courageous effort on Renny Jhaveri? All I can see is that the 17 year old had a great time, with people paying for her make-over, expensive outfits, lavish parties. And even if she was exposed, what would happen to her? The most-likely outcome would have been that her party spree would have ended. I don’t think anyone from the Page 3 brigade would have ran behind her with a knife, threatening to kill her. Commendable and courageous effort could be defined by the work done by reporters like Barkha Dutt, Anita Pratap and Suhasin Raj, who looked at danger right in the eye, to bring us news of grave importance and relevance. All in all; it was just waste of time and money and above all they have (like many others) abused the term ’sting operation’.
