A couple of days back a group director of Maharaja’s passed away.
Almost immediately, all across the city hoardings sprouted up featuring a
larger than life picture of this gentleman and a message of condolence.
I really don’t know what to make of it.
On one side a public display of grief from a company perspective
is highly admirable. But on the other hand I do feel a shudder of revulsion
pass over me as one part of me feel this gesture is in poor taste. A close
relative of his told me I don’t think he would have appreciated it if he was
alive. I for one did not know him well enough to comment. But one thing is for
sure the day I go to meet my maker I would prefer my obituaries to be limited
to the press.
