So is all REALLY well?? Ofcourse it is. But I still tried scrutinising the making and building of the character Rancho chanchad; the behti hawa sa ,udati patang sa ,free willed, flawless ,curious fella; to know why he was what he was And why its difficult for us to be what he was.
What I find - He had NO family; NO responsibilities (not answerable to anybody for anything); NO threatening letters and its after effects; NO fear stemming from the fact that he had NOthing to lose NOt even the degree coz Money Power backed him ( not his so what ?); NO job seeking nd sustaining (and that means NO Boss too ;))
Learning was the forbidden fruit for him so he yearned to learn. Very human isn't it? You want what you are devoid of ;its just that in ur case the luxury is not studies.
And it was a FILM after all a BOLLYWOOD flick which in itself sums it all. And woh jo "khud apni raah banata" usme kaante bichane wala koi na hota, u see.
Just Imagine if Sharman's character wanted to be a Wild Life Photographer, how would have that been JUSTIFIED with bhindi 12 rupaiya kilo? And a dowry demand of Maruti 800 coz his sis was "28", apart from the sundries like Mom's saree etc. etc. and the eternal etc.?Still justified?
And what if they had not been sucess stories? Which frustration do you think will be more? Which regret will be more? Can you really answer that question today and stick to it even 10 years later ,as in the film, when you are not successful. NOT successful in terms of the parameters set by this Material World. We , consciously, sub consciously ,do tend to perceive ourselves and feel about ourselves just as the world sees us. We are always subject to approval.
Do children really know themselves enough to know what they are good at and what will keep them happy all their lives? We all go through phases.Believe me I don't say that parents or as a matter of fact anyone else actually knows better when I ask this. Its just one of the unanswered with no set solution Questions that I have posed.
For me its IDIOT Glorified STUPIDS yet to be!!! And for people thinking otherwise I really liked the movie. I like Feel Good Films as a matter of fact.
There is a basic premise of the film though which I am really a BIG TIME believer in too. Life mein Excellence ke peeche bhago success jhak marke peeche ayegi. BUT there is a BUT. You need to get over that BUT. I cudnt make out a fool proof plan for it except the significance and relevance of the Feel Good factor. We all need to feel good all the time or fool ourselves to feel good. It really helps.
This Sunday I saw The Dark Knight first time. And I noe it is quite late to discuss The Dark Knight. But I remember a line that the Joker said "Nobody panics when things go according to plan, even if the plans are horrifying." So true. We never realise. Priyadarshan and Rohit Shetty though find chaos humorous. Is Chaos really rib tickling or panicking? A bit off track but that thought remained and so had to put it down.
