Lolzzz...not to take seriously
actually I do go through some sort of bankruptcy at times and get totally confused about what to write....still thinking what to say....friends?....love?.....parents?....my self?....study?
hohohoho....believe me the last one probably I will never discuss....my mom says....every thing goes fine with me save study...
Well lots of meaning less chats 'n' all. I would rather feel
comfortable to make a mesh of various things that are coming to me at the moment....Slumdog won Oscars....Sri Lankan players attacked in Lahore....India gearing up finally for the perliamentary polls....possibly no connections ...but Im busy thinking (Suppose you all know that I have this extraordinary bad habit of thinking when I have nothing else to do)...
So then Slumdog getting Oscars?
"selling India's poverty and earning millions"----so many are of this opinion
Ofcouse come on India is no way only Dharavi.....shopping malls, multiplexes,6-digit pay cheques...all are now a part of "BHARAT NIRMAN" ( giggle giggle)...Dharavi is still there as a huge, burning dot on the face of "SHINING INDIA" (giggle again)......
Yes Dharavi continues to be the largest slum in Asia....and its a story of the inhuman, unspeakable life that these slum dwellers....The children there, their childhood completely devoid of basic education, proper nutrition, sanity or anything that a normal human existence can demand. If India can afford there slums coexisting with the sky scrappers, then why would anyone have the problem with anyone portraying them?
Is it that the director Mr. Boyle is just a white skinned?...British?...Westerner?
well...its true, India for western perception is still a land of snake charmers and miracles where tigers roam about on the streets in broad day light.....but thats for common ley man....i suppose not for the Academy award jury???...or even if it is, the film may have some what matched their anticipation, or rather taste about how India is pictured
But is it all made up story?...
Its more than a tribute to Indian cinema....I mean i dont know how far it is an international acknowledgement of Indian film
except Rahman....the semi-God of sort of our times...and me being a blind fan of his....is over-over joyed with his winning...he is tremendous.....
Otherwise its an eye opener.....under the reeling effects of some long overthrown colonization, west is still the best for us.....so let a westerner open our eyes and let him show us hoy much of a Hoax are these SHINING-BUILDING advertisements, the govt puts up before every elections.
some day may be these slums will cease to exist and India will surely develop and only that day probably a film depicting a child suffering from dyslexia will be counted a worthy picture of India's problems.....may be....
