Nudity for a cause: A few ideas for Poonam Pandey

We've seen the PETA ads, we've seen the MF Husain paintings, we've seen Sherlyn Chopra banned from tweeting photos.

And now we've been offered the chance to see an organism that has come out of the woodwork, and calls itself Poonam Pandey (seen here), in the nude.

I, like most of the nation, had never heard of Poonam Pandey, till the media went ballistic over a tiny girl who looks like any other model.

Apparently, the Indian team is supposed to be motivated by her offer of a private striptease and the BCCI is supposed to be moved by her request to bare all for the benefit of the entire stadium.
