Cricketics Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 phack, i am sick of seeing those third world scenes which are being shown on India in the form of documentry or Movie. frekain creating poor image of our country

But the fact that annoys me is that they don't know/show that there is a whole another side to India. They adhere to their stereotypes too much and want to feel the satisfaction of their stereotypes being "true". I hate it.
Rajiv Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 phack, i am sick of seeing those third world scenes which are being shown on India in the form of documentry or Movie. frekain creating poor image of our country ' tics, movies is art, not meant for image. We would be too small to think that some images can depict the whole country, everyone knows about India out there and more importantly we know about ourselves so these images shouldnt disturb us P.S - Whatever they are showing is REAL, isn't it so isme sharam kya hain
Mr. Wicket Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 everyone knows about India out there I wouldn't be so sure. A good chunk of the audience in the US is still oblivious to most things outside their own borders, totally uninformed on most things going on in the outside world (heck I've had plenty of people I met thinking Hong Kong - where I lived for 4 yrs - is part of Japan and people don't speak English there) and in some cases their own state. Don't underestimate the depths that stupidity can hit.
Cricketics Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 do you even know what SMILE PINKI is about.... no i don't, but that particular scene i thought was showing bit wit of poor image of INdia. i may be wrong. I don't mind it. But the fact that annoys me is that they don't know/show that there is a whole another side to India. They adhere to their stereotypes too much and want to feel the satisfaction of their stereotypes being "true". I hate it. exactly... same sentiments ' tics, movies is art, not meant for image. We would be too small to think that some images can depict the whole country, everyone knows about India out there and more importantly we know about ourselves so these images shouldnt disturb us P.S - Whatever they are showing is REAL, isn't it so isme sharam kya hain aye be gal hai, but there are millions watching whom i would want to learn a bit more about India then just knowing about Poverty
Laaloo Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Visual affects to benjamin? A ripoff. Dark Knight deserved it man.

Plot twist: ISRO scientist's family object to marrying the alien because she is from a different caste...and so they run away to Venus where they will never be found.

Don't take it wrong way. I want to see these directors show the better side of India too rather then just seeing the same caste system scenes being shown and the scenes of poverty.
Rajiv Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 nice to see that Prabhu deva guy say "This is for my country" it was a great speech
graphic23 Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 Awesome speech by Resul Pookutty! A word that is preceded and followed by silence. :--D
