On Instagram, Sahil Kamra has 500 followers. Ample reason, the 23-year-old has concluded, for plastic surgery. So he has just got his nose and lips done, with his parents funding the three-hour and Rs. 80,000 surgery.
"Now I click my selfies freely wherever and whenever i want at whichever angle i like. I feel better about myself, I feel more confident," said Sahil who is well aware that selfies are to Instagram what piano-playing kittens are to YouTube - crowd-pleasers.
To the perpetual disappointment of those not genetically camera-friendly or quaintly predisposed to privacy, this is not a world for the self-effacing. Kim Kardashian, who has turned her entire life into a reality show, allowing cameras to film her with additional 24X7 access through her social media accounts, celebrated 45 million Instagram followers on Wednesday. She acknowledged the "insta-love" with - what else - a Thank You selfie.
Mr Kamra has won instant gratification. "More people follow me on Instagram now, I get more likes on Facebook", he said sitting in a cafe. When asked whether one of many apps that exist to swipe away imperfections, he explains that he expects his surgery to deliver the ultimate real-life like as well - "I will be married in a couple of years so it helps".
