Celebrity Men and Loyalty

Recently read an article regarding one of my favorite Actor, "Kajol".  I used to love her performances and her way of making each character so special. What was even more nice about her that she left her career, when she was at the top (yes she was the best female actor at that time) to care for a family. Lots of heroines leave their career but usually only when it not being good to them or when their downfall starts. But Kajol left it all, just to be with the one she loves. That's when I started liking her even more.

So here's the sad part, I read her husband "Ajay Devgan" is having an affair with the married-men specialist "Kangana Ranuat". What special you might ask? Well nothing, if you look at the statistics.
In the film industry, its so common for the actors to fall in and fall out of love. The thing was just this that the above situation just shows a grim reality of how men cannot be faithful. Its not that I am generalising all the "men of the world"; but even if we conduct a worldwide survey we would find a majority of men(especially those in the entertainment industry) who do not have one sexual partner. Anyone who doesn't agree can go ahead and pick up the statistics for AIDS. Whay is it such a widespread disease? Yes , blood transfusion does cause it but all of us know the main cause.

So back to the topic; a man who has everything - a superstar wife who leaves all just to be with him; a son, a daughter and a wonderful career; goes ahead and sleeps around. Why? Men might say its not a big deal. But for all women; believe me, it is. Man sleeps around, he's a stud- woman does the same and she's a slut. Its the thought process that differs big time here. While a one night stand isn't a big deal for a man; it is a life changing statement for a woman.

I don't know when it will happen but the thought process of man and woman needs to get mapped at least on this issue. Loyalty can never be understated. It needs to be present in a relationship and has to be both on mental as well as physical level. Also once a partner cheats; there is no gaurantee he won't do it again. Every relationship has its own saturation point, and so its best for the woman to decide what means more to her, sticking around and giving him a chance or kicking him out and giving herself a chance.

So what did Kajol do when her husband did this "nothing- meant to him" episode. She fought hard for her marriage. Got a makeover; looks now like a million bucks and drove the other woman away.
Was she right? I hope for the sake of her kids, she was.
