Pakistan’s moral brigade guns for Veena again

Some elements of Pakistan’s moral brigade are once again gunning for actress Veena Malik — this time for cheapening the institution of marriage on an Indian reality show.
Malik, who faced flak for featuring on popular Indian reality show “Bigg Boss 4″ earlier this year, has now signed a contract to marry on another Indian reality show, “Swayamvar 4″.
“If she (Malik) wants to make a mockery of herself, she can. We could use some comic relief in this day and age. But she is sending a message to viewers when she plays wheel-of-husband on a reality game show like Swayamvar — cheapening the institution of marriage. It dwindles a sacred relationship to a thirst for glamour, riches, and the spotlight,” wrote Alina D on The Express Tribune newspaper’s blog.
“Set to be the first non-Hindu, Pakistani would-be bride on the Indian reality show ‘Swayamvar’ next year, eager suitors will vie for the attention and affections of her coveted heart,” Alina wrote.
