What repercussions
did Shashi Tharoor’s ‘Friendship’ have?
In an email to Shashi Tharoor, Meher Tarar says
feelingly-" ...so I guess I was right all my life. Friendship between a
man and a woman will always be labelled incorrectly and even the woman who's
the love of your life will doubt your word against very circumstantial evidence"
To which Shashi replied that he'd been asked by Sunanda Pushkar to not be in touch with Tarar anymore. "I hope you will understand and forgive me if I stop our phone and email exchanges" he said.

The events that followed spelled disaster for Shashi Tharoor, who quite obviously was unable to stop communication with Tarar despite his best intentions. I remember the few times I met them, they had looked so happy and engaged with each other. For a third marriage for both, it was delightful to see such a youngster like romance and attraction. Also shows how deceptive appearances can be, and how easily their relationship became prey to suspicion, acrimony and the forbidden apple of Shashi's 'friendship' with the opposite sex. Today months after Sunanda's 'demise' there is no clarity as to the reason of her death, the aplrax placed on her bedside is not present in her blood say the tests conducted to unearth the reason of her untimely death. So were the strips placed there for a reason?
In 'Hum Tum' Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukherjee have an
interesting exchange about the friendship between a man and a woman? Or then
'When Harry Met Sally' Meg Ryan argues with Billy Crystal about the possibility
of a platonic friendship between the two sexes.
It might indeed be possible but with the Democlese
sword of sex, attraction, lust, chemistry always hanging on the head of the
friendship- ready to take it into another dimension anytime. And so it is that
a man woman friendship is like a diet which can anytime give into the forbidden
chocolate
