I belong to a fairly well heeled social circle in Madras. Many of them are highly regarded professionals and scions of big industrialist families.
I attended a wedding last week. Looking around, I stumbled on to a mysterious discovery. The women behind these successful men, with rare exceptions, were very ordinary looking.
I wonder why the cream of the society has not married the glamour girls like models and film stars. While it is admissible to dream about them, at a stretch even have illicit liaisons, marrying the glam girls seems to be taboo. Surprisingly even the politicians shun them. The entire beauty pageant end up marrying the underworld dons.
It is not about diffidence to the professional success of these stars. Doctors, lawyers and professors are definitely in the preferred partner category.
Somehow the logic has set in; models and film stars are not chiseled to be good life mates. They are passable in private scrap books but definitely not in the marriage albums.
Their parents are well advised to advertise in the D company circles for eligible grooms!
