Dear Diary

I'm feeling very happy because today is my friend's Bhumika's birthday and all of us went to watch the movie 'Azhar'. The movie is on the life story of former Indian cricket captain Mohammad Azharuddin, who was accused of match fixing near the end of his career and band for life time. I firmly believe that there are some principles according to which sports should be played, but some people turn a blind eye to sports ethics. All That Matters to them is money and fame. How greedy can people be? After watching the movie, I felt that Mohammad Azharuddin was wrongly targeted by the sports authorities. He was made a scapegoat because of his talent and position in the Indian team.

We enjoyed a lot in her birthday party. I'm tired now. See you tomorrow!
