The real blueprint of CST

"WE call ours the land of Rama and also the land of Kamasutra. Porn is available freely and we all know it. I don''t see the point in people walking right in front of shops that sell movies so openly and pretend like they are oblivious to its very existence," says John Mathai from Thadumal College.
For anyone who has walked down DN Road connecting Mc Donald''s at VT and Fountain, the freely available pornographic content is no matter of secrecy.
For most youngsters, it''s a part of an everyday routine to have the CD sellers faintly muffling "Boss blue film, sex movie, animal, tripleX, jo chaahiye milega".
A growing number of students have become quite used to the one-sided conversation.
"It''s an everyday affair. What''s the point in me stopping and making a face. I''d rather pretend I haven''t heard it than upset myself about it," shares Smriti Advani from Xavier''s College.
In a country that has controversies breaking out over the simplest of issues, which are blown out of proportion, a flourishing trade of this nature comes as a surprise to anyone who stops and thinks.
"Normally, I tend to just ignore this subject. However, now that I think about it, it is quite strange that stuff like this is sold so openly and no morcha, arrest or action is taken towards this issue. Where is the moral police where there really is need," asks Anindita Panda from Sydenham College.
Pornographic films can be bought easily for anywhere between Rs 100 and Rs 50. Bargaining skills might help you save some cash, for CDs that come for Rs 50 are 90-minute films.
"Hindi picture jaada mahenga hota hai. Bahar ban ke aata hai na, is liye," shares Rakesh, a dealer at VT-Fountain stretch.
A survey by Downtown Plus revealed that most of the clientele includes college students and men in their mid-30s. And it is not hard to find middle-aged men picking up as many as hundred CDs for Rs 3,500!
"Movie dekhne baad exchange karna hai Rs 50 main ho jayega," explains Riyaz, another porn dealer. Most of the stock comes through whole sellers at Lamington Road and larger stocks from Vapi (near Gujarat).
Jimniye, another shopkeeper, explains the growing interest among college students, by saying that they pick up five to six CDs by chipping in 50 each.
