Dildar Leherwala, a 24-year-old MBA student from Faculty of Management Studies, MS University Vadodara, committed suicide yesterday night after spending two futile days trying to understand the features of Google Wave, a new social networking service by Google. An MS Word file titled ‘<em>Suicide_note.docx</em>’ found on his computer’s desktop has been taken as the conclusive proof. The note explains, with vivid desperation, the mental turmoil this young man had to go through while using Google Wave which led him to take this drastic step.</p><div id="attachment_1346" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 260px"><img class="size-medium wp-image-1346" title="Dildar watched this video explaining features of Google Wave many times before he gave up" src="http://cdn.fakingnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/google-wave-250x225.jpg" alt="Dildar watched this video explaining features of Google Wave many times before he gave up" width="250" height="225" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Dildar watched this video explaining features of Google Wave many times before he gave up</p></div><p>His family and friends revealed that Dildar was an internet freak and had an unmatched fascination with e-mailing and social networking websites.</p><p>His close friend, Dhaval, recalls with moist eyes, “I remember the day five years back when Dilds got an exclusive invitation from his uncle living in the USA to join Gmail. He was so happy. He instantly opened an email account and even sent Invites to all his friends.  He was so generous. He even treated us with muffins and patties in college canteen.”</p><p>Probing further, Faking News came to know some startling facts about his internet life. Dildar, incidentally had 13 e-mail accounts on 9 different e-mail hosting websites. He also had profiles on 21 social networking websites including many which were mostly unheard in India. He had 2132 friends on Orkut, 1477 on Facebook, 771 on Hi5 and 462 followers on Twitter. According to his friends, he had login ids on at least 200 different websites to get access to all kinds of stuff on internet. He even maintained a secret file on his laptop where he kept a note of all those logins and passwords. The file is still unlocated.</p><p>Dildar was restless for past few weeks since he heard about the launch of Google Wave. For more than ten days, his status message on almost all his social networking profiles said “Please send me a Google Wave invite. TIA!”</p><p>Rupesh, another close friend of Dildar explains, “He would usually change his status message twice a day on all his profiles, but this message stood for almost ten days. That showed his level of desperation. But finally his uncle from US again came to rescue and sent him a Google Wave invitation. This was on Friday. Since then, Dilds had locked himself in his room with his laptop and eatables sufficient for two days. Yesterday, when he went offline on G-Talk, we sensed something fishy and eventually had to break in to find that he had killed himself by crushing and chewing laptop batteries.”</p><p>Dildar’s suicide note sums up his need to take this drastic step. It says, “I know Google Wave is going to be bigger than anything else on internet. And being unable to understand its features fully, I feel like a loser and find myself unworthy of this life. I simply cannot show this miserable countenance to my friends and family. Thus I fully own the responsibility of ending my life and hope to be reborn with a brain fully compatible with Google Wave.”</p><p>Utterly grief stricken, Dildar’s family is planning to sue Google for his death. But following their advocate’s advice, they are currently going through the ‘Terms and Conditions’ of Google Wave before approaching the court. Net savvy Dildar had accepted thousands of terms and conditions online.</p><p><blockquote><em>Possibly Related News:</em></blockquote><ol><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2009/10/google-dumps-google-wave-to-launch-applications-for-terrorists/" rel="bookmark">Google dumps Google Wave, to launch applications for terrorists</a></li><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2010/02/google-buzz-wait-keeps-internet-savvy-guy-awake-all-night/" rel="bookmark">Google Buzz wait keeps internet savvy dude awake all night</a></li><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2009/12/facebook-launches-facebook-tsunami-to-take-on-google-wave/" rel="bookmark">Facebook launches Facebook Tsunami to take on Google Wave</a></li><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2011/07/google-plus-blocking-entry-to-users-who-were-hyperactive-on-orkut/" rel="bookmark">Google Plus blocking entry to users who were hyperactive on Orkut</a></li><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2010/01/google-goes-the-facebook-way-nexus-one-to-suggest-whom-to-call/" rel="bookmark">Google goes the facebook way, Nexus One to suggest whom to call</a></li></ol></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.fakingnews.com/2009/11/unable-to-figure-out-google-wave-youngster-kills-himself/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>37</slash:comments> </item> <item><title>Ekta Kapoor agrees for &#8220;Ekta Ka Swayamvar&#8221;</title><link>http://www.fakingnews.com/2009/09/ekta-kapoor-agrees-for-ekta-ka-swayamvar/</link> <comments>http://www.fakingnews.com/2009/09/ekta-kapoor-agrees-for-ekta-ka-swayamvar/#comments</comments> <pubDate>Fri, 18 Sep 2009 19:39:33 +0000</pubDate> <dc:creator>Chotu Ustaad</dc:creator> <category><![CDATA[Television]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Gay]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Karan Johar]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Rahul Mahajan]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Rakhi Ka Swayamvar]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Rakhi Sawant]]></category> <category><![CDATA[Reality shows]]></category> <category><![CDATA[SRK]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.fakingnews.com/?p=738</guid> <description><![CDATA[After the highest TRP gainer ‘Rakhi ka Swayamvar’ and the already in production ‘Swayamvar Season 2 - Rahul Dulhan Le Jayega’, reliable sources from NDTV Imagine have confirmed Ekta Kapoor, the saas-bahu queen of Indian television, as the third participant in the series.

In fact, according to an insider, Ekta was supposed to be the first celebrity to participate in the show, much before Rakhi, but due to some personal reasons, she could not make up her mind earlier.</p><p>Ekta’s consent to take part in the show now, as per speculations, is because of Karan Johar!</p><p>Ekta and Karan have been good professional friends for a long time. But a couple of months back, Karan shocked Ekta by giving a statement in media that they had agreed to marry each other if they did not find suitable partners for themselves shortly. Though Ekta did not ridicule Karan publically, she was heard talking to friends in a party, “Karan stinks of Miss Dior and Poison (read female perfumes) while I use Homme and Fahrenheit (read male perfumes). I would not marry him even if he is the last man alive.”</p><p>Hoping to scoff at Karan by finding a suitable groom for herself, Ekta had recently organized mock auditions at Balaji Telefilms. The actual purpose of the auditions was to shortlist a few suitors for Ekta. Though the news of applicant girls being forced to smooch guys was publicized by the media, the real news was suppressed by the organizers.</p><p>In fact, when the male applicants were asked to smooch Ekta during the audition, 33 out of 35 refused to oblige and ran away. The remaining two were identified as beggars aged 52 and 55 respectively.</p><p>Since that day, Ekta had been missing from the page-3 parties and has gone into her shell. Taking this as an opportunity, Sameer Nair, CEO- NDTV Imagine, re-approached Ekta to convince her to come out and participate in the show, to which she agreed happily this time around.</p><div id="attachment_739" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 294px"><img class="size-full wp-image-739" title="Ekta Ka Swayamvar" src="http://cdn.fakingnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/ekta_ka_swayamvar.jpg" alt="Ekta Ka Swayamvar" width="284" height="303" /><p class="wp-caption-text">Ekta Ka Swayamvar</p></div><p>It is interesting to note that Karan Johar was also approached for the 3rd season of Swayamvar series. According to Nair, “Karan is a good friend of mine and we have already discussed the prospect of organizing his Swayamvar on television. But being confused with his orientation, he demanded to invite applications from both guys and girls. Since NDTV is an Indian family channel, we consider Indian culture and traditions before giving a green signal for any show. Though Article 377 has been annulled by the judiciary, there is little acceptance of gay relations in our country. So I had to say sorry to KJo.”</p><p>But according to insiders, this excuse is largely false. Actually, Nair feared receiving life threatening calls from Shahrukh once Karan agreed to marry on the show, because of which Nair had to call off &#8220;<em>Karan Ka Swayamvar</em>&#8220;.</p><p>Well, it will be interesting to see how many guys would like to watch the real <em>saas-bahu</em> drama in their homes itself after marrying Ekta. Karan Johar has already planned to apply for Ekta’s Swayamvar, sources confirmed.</p><p><blockquote><em>Possibly Related News:</em></blockquote><ol><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2010/03/ekta-kapoor-charged-with-murder-of-anandi-faking-news-seeks-justice/" rel="bookmark">Ekta Kapoor charged with murder of Anandi, Faking News seeks justice</a></li><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2010/08/indian-husbands-forgive-ekta-kapoor-after-watching-once-upon-a-time-in-mumbaai/" rel="bookmark">Indian husbands forgive Ekta Kapoor after watching Once Upon a Time in Mumbaai</a></li><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2010/07/paul-the-octopus-to-star-in-swayamvar-season-3-reality-show/" rel="bookmark">Paul the Octopus to star in Swayamvar season 3 reality show</a></li><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2010/01/heaven-clarifies-that-it-has-never-made-any-marriage-at-all/" rel="bookmark">Heaven clarifies that it has never made any marriage at all</a></li><li><a href="http://www.fakingnews.com/2010/08/rakhi-ka-insaaf-imagine-tv-rakhi-ka-ilaaj/" rel="bookmark">After “Rakhi Ka Insaaf”, Imagine TV plans “Rakhi Ka Ilaaj”</a></li></ol></p> ]]></content:encoded> <wfw:commentRss>http://www.fakingnews.com/2009/09/ekta-kapoor-agrees-for-ekta-ka-swayamvar/feed/</wfw:commentRss> <slash:comments>1</slash:comments> </item> </channel> </rss>
