When "Freedom of Expression" collides with another "Freedom of Expression" !!

In last couple of days we have a roller coaster ride again, movement is shifted and expanded in a broad way enough to make a impact Nationwide. People came up with a bold mindset, different thinking to a bring a peace in the Nation also with our Neighbor Country. Its always good that we have independent voice and believe to change the current situation with a Countries, new souls are the future of Country's representation and their thinking should always be considered. Today's scenario is very similar to "70's Student Unions" where Students come against misery of Government of that time who later made a big name and became a face of Politics. Those days the fight was against Corruption, Unemployment, Price Hike and currently its about Independence !! Independence of speech to demand Independence Of.. Its not that people don't have Freedom of Speech but its about ideology which most of the peoples are opposite of and rejected it.

Everyone has a different level of thinking and different level of realization, some people workout to find a solution of any problem and some left it aside. To find a solution as well some has different level of mindset, some wants to reach on the root and some wants to take a simple route. Indeed everyone wants a peace of their life and people time to time come to appeal for the same, but what about those who lost something or other in the tense situation ? We gets numbed for a moment of time when we realizes that we lost something of our own we liked a most and was emotionally attached with, imagine people who lost whatever they got in a situation they didn't choose but stuck in a war game which not looks to be get ended anytime soon. People part of this mess wants thing to get resolve as soon as possible then those who likes the way out with some creative posters.

Everyone has a voice and rights to express it in a "Democratic Nation" but Democracy doesn't mean to stand opposite in every cause since the Government is not as per some 30% wishes. Its good to speak of your mind but responsibility towards the Nation will always be above since its also a kind of a duty we have to abide, then also most of the cases the voices won and appreciated as well. Then where the problem arises ? Problem arises when people terms the one voice as "Revolutionary" but another as "Bully". I myself condemned and stand against personal attacks or threats whosoever it is either Men or Women, choice of words are always be selective and should be specific to the topic and not above it. In Freedom of Speech if one has right to speak then others are also have the same and we got words to counter it not via sympathy.

Its quite unfortunate that during all this tussle and to defend a naive someone being called as "Illiterate" and its not he or she is a ordinary person, I can expect this in some other cases but can't in this case as someone who represented the Nation with hard work and dedication is from Sports and basically whosoever involves with Bollywood knows the hit formula and tat is make movie on Sports or Sports Persona, play the character and create history. Freedom of Expression or Speech is never a case of stopping anyone and if we won't allow the representation of youth for the Country it will be no lesser then the big blow. During "JP Movement" we saw the arise of many outspoken lads who later made a name and fame in Indian Politics and their contribution are unbelievable. Debates, Intellectual thinking are good and should be welcome but it shouldn't be a one sided affair let the counter attack should also be make a presence.

[Archive Blog (15/08/2015)] Why Sholay is a iconic movie of Bollywood ?

15th August 1975, Sholay was released and become a iconic movie of Bollywood but what is special on it which made it as a icon ? First glimpse tell it that its a normal “Masala” movie which having funny and heaviest dialogues, plot wise also movie is all about revenge and action.

Many such movies in the Pre Sholay Era had a plot based on revenge with banddits infact banddits was common on those days it was a fashion to have robbers character in horse with rifle.

Literally if we see then movie was nothing special infact Sholay won only 1 accolades and tats of “Best Editing”, because entire movie was well crafted, few scenes was deleted just because M.S Shinde may had something in his mind.

Sholay can’t be consider a family movie but parents won’t hesitate if their kids watch with them infact a 3D version released because young generation may connect with it.

But what made Sholay special ? Jai – Veeru, Thakur, Basanti, Choti Bahu, Ramu Kaka….. ? No its Gabbar Singh yes Gabbar Singh, I think this was the first movie where Gabbar Singh’s entry let crowd to whistle, the background score, sound of a boot along with its picture and dialogue “Kitne Aadmi The” it was a most perfect way to start a character, a proper suspence with a heaviest dialogue.

Most of the movie in the past never had such sequence where Villian received a less but a best footage, I bet most of the time we must have remembers Heros name but not Villains but here we not even remembered him but now made a movie on Gabbar who’s fighting against corruption.

Thing which Sholay is different with others are proper casting, Dharmendra – Hema, Amitabh – Jaya, Sanjeev Kumar as Thakur and Amzad Khan as Gabber which is made his career. Lots of story was behind regarding casting, Amitabh wants to become Gabbar and Sanjeev Kumar wants to become Veeru but if its really happen then just imagine what would happen with the movie ?

Every actor have some speciality from Dialogue delivery to Acting skills, Amitabh did fulfilled his wish by becoming Gabbar in Ram Gopal Verma Ki Aag but what happened ?

Also a bold decision to let Jai to die in the climax star like Amitabh died and not able to remain alive till last makes everyone emotional. Don’t know what would be the impact of the movie if they show Gabbar to die.

RD Burman may not won anything in the movie but must won the credit of a title music and a song “Yeh Dosti” because this movie gave every best friend a beautiful composition.

Overall people who was behind the curtains made this movie something special because of their smartness, boldness, experiment in Masala genre made the movie special.
