ALL IZZ WELL …….


ALL IZZ WELL …….

Again RajKumar Hirani’s unconventional way of making movies worked.Doing something different from league is his success mantra. 3 idiots has been considered sequel of Munna bhai series as it again gave a social message with 100% entertainment. His films do not only portray our daily life but try to present something that is missing in ourselves like harmony , gratitude ,affection ,love. Like “jaadu ki zaapi’ in munna bhai mbbs could heal somebody’s pain and was token of gratitude. And Gandhiji’s message -‘non-violence is most powerful tool against all evil powers’ that we could not get through our literature and history books made an impact on us through lage raho.

Now 3 idiots confronted the education system in India –the pressure it impose on students overlooking the innovative and creative ideas for grades ; and marks and other sub- standard and malpractices. Rightly said by Baba Ranchorddas that ‘Chase excellence rather than success ,success jhak marke tumahre peeche aayegi’.Movie showed that we should choose the field as career prospective which we are passionate about and that lead to self satisfaction , wealth and career development. Instead of unnecessary desire of social status ; child’s wishes and field of interest must be paramount to parents.

This movie had all elements – drama , comedy( not an imposed but a situational one), and romance : and each scene was a memorable moment. Outstanding contribution from supporting cast .This film acknowledges some inventions like – cycle driven horse hair clipper , scooter driven flour machine etc that could not be presented at national or international level due to lack of investment and corrupted bureaucrats. Beside thumbs up from critics it was a biggest commercial hit with collection of Rs 375 crore not in India but overseas too.But not to forget it is inspired from best seller ‘Five Point Someone ‘ by Chetan Bhagat.There had been credit row between Chetan and film makers but I think Chetan must be acknowledged as one of main writer as theme (exacerbated education system in India ) and presentation was much similar to novel. ……………… contd

But best of luck to Hirani for Munnabhai chale Amrika…….

Austerity or Tokenism ?

Dictionary meaning of austerity is 'self disciplined'.So how it can be imposed on somebody that congress trying to do.Firstly they asked external affairs minister SM Krishna and Shashi Throor(MoS) to check out from five star hotels besides they were not using taxpayer's money for accomodation.They compelled all its leaders to be austere and curb there conspicious expenses and HRD minister wants university to be part of this drive.Recently corporate minister Salman Khurshdie wants CEO to regulate vulguraity income.If politcians wants to live simply they can but why they are compelling others ?It is something that comes from inside it cannot be taught or imposed.Besides that why do we need a wake up call or some catastrophe to happen to take such noble action.Like if it is recession or deluge hit parts of state then our politicians soul wake up to being austere and they started travelling in economic class or by cheap transport.I think just tokenism or a gimmick to project themselves as responsible and eminent leaders in election time.As congress claim that it is govt of aam admi so they should stop being hypocrite and should ake effective steps of cost cutting like scrapping their lalbattis ,Lutein accommodations and delux facilities and reduce security personnel. Common man is austere enough and cutting the cost thats why he can earn bread for family in such inflation and trumoil time.If we see other way around if common man become part of govt,s this drive then it will affect hotel and tourism industry.It is on our politician part to regulate their expenses and do not use taxpayers' money for self comfort and providing perk to their family.They should understand their social responsibilites and do not create hype or propaganda of being austere on media to take political milage and should geniuenly live ordinary life and don't wast public money.Beside this ,their these politcs stunt and travelling in cattle class creates problem for us.

Add ImageIndia's Defeat in T20 2009

so T20 world champions 07 could not defend heir title. They were just able to beat minnows Ireland and Bangladesh.So what is the reason ?Is fatigue arouse due to IPL games but that was played by all cricketers around the world , they did n't perform as we performed like SA ,most of thier players played IPL and they made to semis in WC so fatigue is not the excuse.So who is responsible for such drastic collapse.The problem is defensive approach instead of attacking and aggressive which is paramount requirement of this foemat of cricket.
I think India has been defensive for a long time but as we were on winning track it didn't come to picture.Do you remember last test with NZ in New Zealand ,due to dhoni's late decision to declare 2nd innings deprived us to celebrate our 100th test victory.There are various instances but as i mentioned we had been winning so not noticed.

So is man with midas touch or lucky mascot of indian cricket - Dhoni is loosing his magic?

T 20 format is not about premediated strtergies and defensive approach .It is all about instantaneous stratergy and a lot of improvisation.
In WC 07 ,Dhoni went with Rp singh in 19th over to contain and have wickets (and Rp also proved his captain's decision correct and last over pressure transfered to opposition and then he went with inexperienced joginder singh for last one.That Dhoni with a bit of gambling was aggeresive but defensive approach knocked out us of WC 09.
He send inexperienced Jadeja up the order instead of Yuvraj (who is in excellant form) .Short pitch bowling has been area of concern for indian cricketers for long time like shewag and ganguly Dhoni himself made 11 on 23 balls in W. indies game which is shameful individual total in T20 game .Dhoni is known for his big hits but this score does not go by his style which also not appropiate for a middle order batsman as middle order batsman is just to pace up the innings or his approach towards game is only for his individual score.Short pitch bowling has been area of concern for indian batsmen for long time.

I want to mention being superstition that after jadeja in playing 11 ,indai could not win a single international game till T20,so is a bit unlucky for us or dimnishing Dhoni's midas.That is my perspective plz don't take it another way.
So Dhoni has to comeback with bit aggersive and improvisation as T20 is all about this.Atleast we should fight and if we defeat that will be less anoying rather than just succumb to weakness like facing short pitch...

Captain should lead from the front

In IPL mumbai indians was favourite of large no. of cricket fans even which are not mumbaikars as it leaded by our master blaster or God of cricket and they started brilliantly by beating last year finalists in their first game and did not disappoint their fans all over the country . But after that they collapsed so badly except their knight riders games . And i think it is due to flaws in captainacy of sachin besides that he played extremely well.Their bowling was best in this season as they contained the opposition in b/w 120-140 but batting was worst .I think sachin got scared of coming top the order in later games so he send lower order batsmen like harbhajan or WKP to open or second down.They could not chase 120 in kings XI game,they loose early wickets of sachin , jayasurya ,at that time some one needed to set and just kept on rotate strike but he send harbhajan who just went for big shorts and got out.If harbhajan would be send at last moments after jp dumniy it would be mumbai,s game. Harbhajan also alleged that captain did not use him at right time.And i also think he did not use talent Nayyar properly (or did not show believe in domestic players).I am not criticising sachin as batsman but as captain,he could not bear the responsibilities to lead the side.

Rakesh om prakash is different form league

Earlier it was the myth the cinema is the mirror of the social life but now our society follows what they watch on movies- follow the acts of their favourite actors .so we are influenced by the movies which are affecting our society.but rakesh has maintained that myth and reflects our social life and try to project small happenings so we can relate ourselve to that like DU masti in RDB... and all chandnl chowk life ,relationship among residents in Delhi 6 were shown excellently by him.I am not sayiny his movies do not impact us but they do in a good manner.His movies give very beautiful message silently.Like being inspired from RDB.. there was march to India gate in jessica murder case for justice and to protest against reservation too.

He is also an intelligent director as when it is required to project the whole society equally he took a non actor in his film who is style icon otherwise went with perfectionist.
