Nothing has caught the imagination of the masses more than shooting selfies. Today we have people from all walks of life shooting selfies and be in a mad race to post these on social media to receive that instant gratification of likes.

In a way this is wonderful. Why should only the actors and models post their good looking faces and bodies ? Aren't we all beautiful ? The message is loud and clear. We now live in a time where everyone wants to see "khudka photu" everywhere at all times - Prime Minister with a state guest (selfie diplomacy), a cricketer after a good innings, a chef with a new creation, a guest who has just eaten it, an artist with a new painting, a musician at a concert, a surgeon after an operation, a patient as soon as the surgery is done, friends at a pub, each birthday celebration - before cake cutting, while cutting and being fed after cutting......and the list goes on. No one wants to be left behind.
