Paint it yellow
hi there!
Last sunday i saw an amazing movie and i read a great book, on the same day.Now that does not happen too often.It felt good and i felt lucky to have got both of them on the same day.
Let me start off with the movie which was Rang de Basanti,by the way.There had been so much hype created about this movie and so many controversies on the eve of the movie release,which was enough to provoke interest on the moviebuffs and to top it all the awe-inspiring music by ARRahaman.I was with an open mind when i entered the theatre which was Six degrees satyam,primarily becoz of the fact that i had spent abt 110 bucks 4 the movie ticket and i wanted to atleast get my money's worth,which reminds me of a program on NDTV,few weeks back, that featured all the actors of the movie and the college students of Delhi were to shoot questions on them.I remember one fellow said that he preferred seeing movies enjoyable like Dil Chahta Hai and inspiring ones like "Black",he asked Aamir Khan whether would he get his money's worth after watchin RDB and Aamir promised him saying that he would simply reimburse the money he spent if he didn't like the movie.Now it was not the promise that caught my attention but the point which Aamir made was, this movie wud be as entertaining as the other 2 .Both Dil Chahtha hai and Black were among my list of favorite movies and yes both were trendsetters in their own ways.
At the end of the movie, to say that i got my money's worth would be an understatement.The movie aimed at making one point very clear which was the role of the youth in the nation's development and it has been presented in a way that evoked mixed reactions among people.While comin out of the movie,i heard one fellow saying that the movie is politically incorrect, but i seriously doubt any other ending would have left such an impact on the minds of the audience as the movie's climax.It had people talking about the movie even after people left the theatres,which i feel very few movies are able to create such impact on ppl.The comfort level the guys share shows on screen and gives the feel of a real college gang of friends.And how Sue is able to see the characters of her movie in these men has also been shown well.
Above all, the movie ends with the followin dialogue, to which i totally fell for
"There are 3 kinds of men that i know
1 Those who go to there deaths screamin
2Those who go to there deaths in silence
And then I came to know about the third"
