Lalli finds succour in tantrism

BS Lalli, former Prasar Bharati CEO, was recently seen entering the dreaded portals of the CBI office. A once all-powerful though diminutive media czar, Lalli was visibly finding it tough to straighten his drooping shoulders under the burden of accusations he is fielding. He has reportedly taken his problems to some tantriks and astrologers who are working as hard as the CBI to control his future.
Perhaps emboldened by them, he has moved the court for an early hearing. And, sources quip, he has more visitors at home now than when he was in office – with one difference: earlier favour-seekers would try to appease him, now he bows and scrapes before various pandits and maulvis. People say he is perennially at the front door – seeing off one and welcoming another.
