Be the Change you want to see around you.

I had strong views on how Madhur Bhandarkar could make his movies better. I heard Desh DeshPande in the volatility talk on Globalisation last year and there answering some question on what makes India stand out in the developing nations of the world,he said India is all about hope and he got me all thinking. Hope is really what keeps India going. Inspite of losing 10 matches in a row, when India plays pakistan again, the stadium is house full, because people are really positive, very optimistic, very hopeful.
It's easy to be a critic but how easy must it be to direct a movie.Not to undermine the great work done by Madhur, but after seeing Mr. Bhandarkar's movies whether it's page 3, Corporate or it's Chandni bar, I have an issue with the way his movies end. More so, because they are social issues. I understand, it's the director's perspective, a story that he wants to tell and understand how he wants his viewers to know the darker side of reality, I still strongly felt that somewhere in making his viewers aware of the brutal reality, he robbed them of their hope. he made them walk out of the cinema hall, disheartened, thinking nothing is ever going to change Instead of a hope, a message that you be the change... Like Hazaaron khwaaishen, a lot of hard reality but where the girl didn't give up, where the movie may not have shown the right as victorious but left a silver lining in the gray clouds..or Like Amitabh's Main Azaad hun, where he dies in the end, he doesnt change anything, he doesn't provide them roti, kapda or makaan but leaves behind the message in every localite's heart, that you be the change.
