swadesh!!

a movie of my kind i woud say.. it revolvs around most important issues in todays life.....
the primary or i would say the soul is to make people understand the true happiness one gets in living in ones own country... i found the scene wherein he looks out of the aeroplane n feels happy lookin at his motherland...
living in America, n being a project manager in NASA, he doesnt really know the tough life people face in the villages.. at first he blames our costituttion n government n says nothin can be done about it.. but after hearing the sad story of a farmer he has a burning passion 2 solve atleast some misery.. he is shocked n broken down....
n he tries to utilize the stream 2 produce electricity, n he succeeds in it ...
n now its time 2 go back 2 his work in america.. but he realizes how tough it is to leave a place where he has ' de love of his life" n his lovable"mother".....
gettin emotional n crying for petty things is wat i totally dislkike n it often forms a very big part of almost all hindi movies.. wherein the hero n heroine cry, do not accept ones other love ... atleast in this movie it was not there n i am happy about it...
i found the heroines character a bit too much, wherein she thinks she is the best.. but later when she openly accepts her love for him, u realize she is not tat bad!! she is a blend of western n indian culture with burning passion to serve the country n society ....
When shahrukh says tat , there is no need for us to be really proud of our culture , rather its a hindrance for our economic development.. they say it is our culture for the women 2 stay in house all day long n look after the family, n the result the huge brilliance in a women is totally lost ... how true... tis thought has been there in me for so long... as he says every country has its own culture n v have ours... tats it, nothin really big about it..
finally i would say the mmusic was superb n without it the movie would have been total waste..
wishin u all a very happy new year.. hope it brings lots of happiness,,,
