Akal De Basanti

Okay guys. I am back after a long time - for the first time I am going to do a review on a movie I saw. It was called "Rang de basanti" - in english it would mean "give me colors - basanti" However I think they could asked for "Akal de basanti" because they were all colored guys and one of the things they lacked was "common sense". Asking for intelligence would have been way too much. Dumbness is the enemy of patriotism and a dumb guy can never be a patriot just like an illiterate guy can never be a scientist. This theory is labelled as mutual exclusiveness of conflicting traits.

The music or the lack of melody in it put me to sleep during the movie. And talking of the movie, one act of stupidity was followed by another.

So basically there were 4 or 5 senseless morons who did nothing but fool around like drinking and driving and other such stuff. And then they somehow got into making a documentary with this firang girl with great "ankh" - you know what I mean :) . And since they were morons, one day they wanted to kill someone out of the blue. One politician who was involved in corruption. Because some guy died in Mig crash and they were lathi charge on a protest rally .

Let me tell you one thing . I have been a victim of lathi charge myself when I was 12 but I never want to kill the policeman that did it. He did it because of his duty. If the policeman asks the crowd to disperse,they should disperse else face consequence. This law is called the law of karma. You will get the consequences of what you do.

Okay this fighter pilot guy died in crash. Did this guy not know of history of MiG planes before selecting his job. India is not a rich country and we have to do with older planes we bought from Russia. Every army job has its risks. Just because one guy died we go against our very own government. US has more than 2000 army men killed in Iraq but all americans are with the american army( not necesarily supporting Bush).

Its good to expose corruption . There are courts - there are laws. Murdering a man because of corruption is something that can only be found in Afghanistan or Saudi Arabia. That is the last thing that we Indians want to become. If the supreme court doesnt act favorably even after reasonable evidences, then I can understand what you are doing.. otherwise you evoke no sympathy. Sorry guys !!

The worst character was that of the lady who just because she lost her boyfriend incited the rest of them to do stuff that they shouldnt have done anyway. But the guys were totally moron - And even God doesnt help morons as the climax proved.

And the Hindu-Muslim, things howmany times we need to see it in a movie. Howmany times ... Its just so sick - watching it again and again. Dont you have anything else to say.

The verdict : Only morons will like it.
