Driving around town, I have been noticing these hoardings which are all over the place. These are not your regular hoardings talking about various products on sale, or about which institute has more toppers, or which new newspaper is being launched, but these are hoardings talking about PEOPLE! These hoardings have faces of like 100 people on it (ok, this might be an exaggeration, but trust me, they are more than one can count on his fingers, especially with the steering wheel in one hand!). And then I start to wonder yet again. Why do people put these hoardings? Is this to feel like a celebrity? Is it to flatter someone? Is it to get some popularity? Is it to say that “don’t mess with me, my face is on hoardings around town”? Is it for an ego boost? How many of us actually see all these faces? If you wonderful people have the answers, please do let us know, and like we say, “keep wondering”!
