Perhaps this ought to be filed along with the other BK hypocrisies and paradoxes ...
Priyanka Chopra is a physically attractive young woman, an ex-Miss World even, who makes her living from that world of thrusting hips, heaving bosoms, wet saris and "boob grabs" we know as "Bollywood" ... the India movie industry. One of many to make the pilgrimage to the BKs.
Now, the funny thing is, either the "God" of the BKs or the founder of the BKWSU, Lekhraj Kirpalani, was very clear and distinct in his advice about the cinema. BKs were forbidden to go and see "talkies" because they were the gateway to hell. Apparently, the story goes, Lekhraj Kirpalani had no idea to marry until he went to see a romantic movie ... and perhaps that says something about his sentiments towards family life.
OK, I know Priyanka is a VIP, the real purpose is about "fame", social climbing and putting bums on seats for their mega-programmes ... but is not the message the BKs are sending out a little confused?
In her recent roles Priyanka has blown cocaine up her nose, flashed inner thigh, had casual 'one night stand' sex with a black man, seduced a husband and had numerous naked bed scenes and so on, all in fantasy, luxury environments ... Although she did wear all white in one of them, its hardly BK behavior.
Where are the spiritual values in this? Why are they putting someone like this, who is allowed to do and encouraging acts the young Brahma Kumaris are not even allowed to dream of, on the stage?
