Return of Munnabhai: The Indian Stupidity.

Ok I took a long hibernation from my earlier blogs, always confronted to think to apply what I shall gain from writing here which doesn’t matter to any but then... lets start and this time on rampage....

Lage raho came ... and Indian masses were again manipulated by a new terminology - Gandhigiri. I am not against the movie, it truly entertains but not surely and with sheer obviousness not a inspiration. Just another flick to laugh and should be thrown into oblivion.

The message is Gandhigiri which is sheer annoyance and non workable.
Peaceful demonstration against governments and the incumbency started long back during 1800s and later the Russian Revolution in early 20th century.
So to call a peaceful movement against the incumbent a contrivance of Gandhian era would be a falsification. But as I said (read my last post) we are weak in our thought process and are used to accept just plain acceptance to what is told to us and manufactured by the people in power. The Indian mind doesn't question to what is fed and thus a victim of manipulation. A reason for it is that we have been ruled by kings and still for 40-50 years in a monarchy democracy.
We talk about people and but the fact is that there is a lot of individualism existing in the country social structure. We adore and make a individual stand great and not the people.

Coming back to the topic, do Munnabhai inspire? No. It doesn't and destined not to be. Vidhu vinodh is shrewd guy and knows that foolish Indians are bound by the political correctness and hence the movie will work. Yeah the Munnabhai had a nice laughter element but no where comparable to RDB. RDB created a stir in the lazy youth senses to flex the reflex against the government. But what surprises me is the response of people to Lage raho; I heard people standing nude in some Mumbai office; I know they would have earned nothing but yes a lesson to be shameful.

There is good element of similarity in RDB both were inspired by historical elements and tried to imbibe the context in the current.
But they differ in application, while Munnabhai was way away from reality and had a fancy fairy tale. RDB was brave and correct application. Moreover RDB didn’t took the wrong facts to suit itself. The RDB had to work on thin line of entertainment, reality and correctness. I think it succeeded almost 90% on it but bit lengthy and boring too. Munnabhai contrived a incorrect notion of Gandhigiri which I mentioned earlier is altogether false. Gandhigiri won India independence is debatable. The British Empire lost huge money and material to be able to control places like India hence a- retreat. The date 15 August is because of Mountbatten’s hurried up efforts to retreat from India and save the economy from huge losses.

Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekhar Azad, Sukhdev fought ardently to uproot the Brits. Their execution was head on ;with a limited resource on their side the destiny of the struggle was imminent. This is true for Subhash Chandra Bose who fought and contrived a military coalition for independence. These are examples of true bravery when everything was bloody against them and no mere opportunism.

That’s true in today’s context too for “Mandal 1” the young took to streets , burnt themselves alive ,tried fighting and met the same fate which those brave received. Though I don’t fully appreciate the Mandal 2 struggle which was inspired by RDB as it was weaker. But still RDB filled the nerves of youth with blood to take pigheaded incumbent.

Munnabhai didn’t did anything, but just as we like to see Karan's , Yashrajs, and Chopras, the film raised above ordinary; for the reason they can play with Indian sensibility which is less of mind and more of emotion. I heard the 3rd part is in making and out to be soon. Can’t still find a sensible reason enough for it’s incessantly sequels. Only thing which the director knows is to churn money by manipulation and that’s the only reason. It has no truth and the lead role is played by a person who has been accused of anti national activities. How can we bear him? Munnabhai doesn't teach anything and to least Inspiring.
“With great power come great responsibility” at least Spiderman represents and teaches something.
