Thanks sir for a great justifying review. I appreciate your skills and dedication in extracting the \'TRUE MESSAGE\' of movies and portraying out to the audience in very simplistic terms quite easy to understand & grasp FOR THOSE WHO ARE SEEKERS.
Bobby Sing
Many Thanks Nihin for your kind words appreciating the honest write-up and yes I truly wish we all somehow find that rare energy and positive influence to go for that much needed change at the earliest.

Bobby Ji, I have some question, hope you will answer.

Dear Amit,
As you must have read in the review, this isn't any perfect or even close to perfect movie from Imtiaz Ali. And for records I keep it even below than his ROCKSTAR and HIGHWAY. But what the film has is a message and some kind of spiritual value that makes it worth watching and contemplating upon unarguably. Moreover it isn't always about finding flaws, its more about the changes a film is capable of causing in a viewer's personal life. Very rarely we decide to go for the change flowing with the film as a river and most of times we tend to take it just as a movie, finding flaws and moving on ignoring it all. This can also happen while reading a thought provoking novel, watching a play or even doing meditation. That very important moment of change or transformation comes, but we willfully ignore it due to our own fears and cowardly attitude towards trying the unknown. So its not about finding any flaws or thinking about how this will happen in a poor person's family or why not Deepika, its more about whether the film was able to make you think about you and your life ....... personally or not. But still, I will let you know my views on your points mentioned. 1. If I have fed up with my job, I should leave it silently with dignity rather irritating my boss & behaving nonsense in the presentation. - If my boss was irritating then I will resign but along with bringing some kind of realization to him through a calm personal talk or a descriptive email informing that he was irritating and annoying at times..........so that the whole office might get a benefit of me leaving the job in some way or the other. And who knows my words may cause a change in the boss too affecting him personally. 2. Viru Sehstrabuddhe thought that Maadhvan and Rancho was supposed to study so he talked about only study, Vivek Mushran thought that Ranbir was supposed to do job so he ordered him (it was mandatory to take work from workers in a multinational)....why to blame them in both the movies ? Just to prove protagonist right !! - The films are not blaming them as they are doing what they are supposed to do mechanically. These films are actually blaming the main protagonists themselves both in 3 IDIOTS and TAMASHA and not anyone else. Its again how we look at things. None of the writers or directors here are blaming the bosses or teachers........... they are actually talking about the heroes and their wrong choices made but no-one else. 3. Ok Now why always Rich Students/job goer have rights to leave the job, give speeches among their parents (and they too get convinced easily) Can we expect a director to show the same concept with a poor guy (who has also fed up with his job). I think then he will be hilarious like the Auto Driver (Tamasha). - No the poor also leave the job and go for another, but you will not be interested in that off-beat, artistic film to be seen in a multiplex. In fact that is the reason why all our films since 2000 revolve around the rich only..........as they are bound to be watched majorly by this section of the society who can afford to spend 300-500 rupees just on the ticket itself. And stating my personal experience, I have seen more middle class and poor guys going for that risky change in their life in comparison to the rich….. because somehow those kinds of guts are somewhere missing in the affluent upbringing. 4. Deepika was also in same mode (of Ranbir) after returning from Costa Rica we never saw her saying "I am mona" when she meets Ranbir again, then why she only blame Ranbir for becoming monotonous with his approach in life. She was also in job and must be doing the same thing as far as I think. - A film/novel/play can be written focusing on the enlightenment of only one character to do full justice to the story. If a writer director will try to showcase the transformation of several characters in his script then that will result in an unjustified chaos since you cannot focus on such drastic personal revolutions experienced by more than one person in just 2-3 hours. Therefore the film remains entirely focused on Ranbir alone and no one else. Hope you will get satisfactory answers to your questions in the above explanations. But if still doubts remain……. That is good……… cause doubts force us to continue thinking. Cheers!

Interestingly that's my personal experience as I have a few friends who despite having no financial security remained firm in their thoughts and did manage to fight for their own kind of work choosing a lot of struggle. |
