I watch

        Lets not talk about the movies and their nature. Instead lets just analyse the perception of banal audience, who just waits for a film that gets kicked in the weekend, with all kinds of ingredients just to make him happier. I am one among such, who struggle a lot to turn my attention away from the plethora of great Indian cinematic factors to become a so called mature critic, analysing the idea of the movie.
  As an aam admi, I already have enough of inhibitions and problems surrounding me in all the realms of this busy life. Hence, while choosing a movie, I will choose the one that makes or tend to make me merrier. Inherently, destruction makes me happier, as I was nurtured in and out with destruction imbibing into every vein, as the protection of my country is considered as dispelling the enemies. Hence, I choose the easiest path by showing a deaf ear at the problems around me and instead enjoy a show of endless emotions in the battle arena. As an effect I end up forgetting the quirky nature of mine.
And hence, as an aftermath of my attitude, I end up cherishing the bloodbaths, chases and clashes but I seldom realise I am killing my creativity forever, that would have been acted as a savior for different situations. I have plenty of options around me to choose and I definitely know the mobocracy is not an option for me, but I still follow the same because, I do not want to take risk by being a hero’.

      Mind you, its not the society or the media that kills me, its myself acting as an implicit factor of blanketing me from this beautiful world. What do you think? Will I not get a solution to all these enthralling problems, if my country starts thinking at least for a moment each day. Are we not capable enough to cherish the beauty of nature as it is. Do we need to get transformed into a critic or a connoisseur, having esoteric knowledge to understand a decent movie on a heartburning issue. Lets not make a mockery out of us and start laughing at it. Lets show to the animals at least, that we are human beings following a civilised civilisation to transform into a better tomorrow. Lets call a spade as a spade. Let us look the life as it is.

Queen is for all

    The queen aptly demonstrates the situation of a dogmatic Indian bride, unable to digest the rejection of a long awaited sensible love marriage, by his ‘beloved’ partner.  It’s a thought provoking flick about a girl fighting her life to transform into a matured open minded woman through a lone journey, rather a lone honeymoon trip to discover similar catastrophes of human life. This encounter has almost everything in it, if some petty Kafkaesque situations are ignored. It cracks a joke and does not let you laugh. It brings the irony out of a tragedy, just to make you control your laughter and entice you to think. Its one such film that rarely grabs attention of the banal action and romance loving audience, but it’s the blend of wit and humor with sarcasm of situations that made it successful in achieving so. If you want to explain about it to your friends, you get lured to talk about the Queen’s character that acts as the centre of attraction as all the other characters gets revolved around hers. As Kangana Ranaut is the heart and soul of the film, the plot of Indian perception of a rejected woman is exceptionally exhibited by her talent.  

    This flick is for those who laugh and who don’t. It is for those who shrug when asked to empower women in India. It is for those who don’t really have enough time to think about our surroundings and about our restricted paradoxical thinking. It is for u, me and us to transform women empowerment from myth into reality.
