The image I have of Ferrari is not red, powerful and posh.
I see Ferrari and on it two thieves sitting and singing, “Party, Sharty, Karenge…Long drive pe chal…” shaking their heads front and back, the man is in Keffiyeh, the scene could have been managed entirely by him, wonder what was the role of the lady (she reminds me of Manisha Koirala in Saawal Dus Core Ka, the smiling duck in the entire show). Adam Sandler was so sure of getting Ferrari @ courtesy Bedtime Stories, but he did not, who gives Ferrari for free? The movie Ferrari ki Sawaari was well received by critics but I could not proceed to watch, left it after the first half. In one of the Hollywood movies, I do not remember the name but a smart, smooth and white teeth hero blows up a Ferrari and does not regret. This entire use of jojoba in winter hints one thing, Ferrari is indeed a prestige symbol. Alas! But it did not give our great entrepreneur aka philanthropist aka wealthy confirmed bachelor Ratan Tata to come up with Tata Nano Car. The idea as popularly narrated, struck him when he saw a family (father, mother and son) on a scooter soaking in the rain, had it been (family) in a Ferrari, he could have just smile and waved his hands, for it could have been Sachin Tendulkar, the only man who owns Ferrari in India, as I am told.
Situation and action- Suppose, if someone gets a heart attack in a busy dusty open market, people will rush him to a hospital even without caring which car he is taken in, better if it is an ambulance. It is in cases of emergency that our mind does not really care what it is, for it is more indulged in what has to be done. All these years has thought me one thing, Ferrari is but a luxury car, owners buy it to show if off. I do not have a problem even if they do, as long as it does not become a desperate attempt. In many cases, owner of spotty luxury cars gets a vertigo effect if no one gives a shit about what they are driving. Example- Once I went to Khan Market for a thorough window shopping, there on the parking lot, this guy in Lamborghini was trying his best to suck all the attention, he managed but not totally, I being a self-proclaimed psychologist pretended to be unaware of his existence, what he did was amazing. He got down from his car, walked towards me and said, “It is Lamborghini.” I asked how to spell it, the reply came, “Lamborgini.” The Letter ‘H’ was missing, obviously, ‘H’ is for the 'have-nots' to know. For your information, I just made up the story. But, next time if you see someone driving a Ferrari or any luxury car, ignore and ignore and see the reaction for it might tell you a lot about the reason behind the purchase of the car by the owner.
