Controversy

We have come back to the same controversy which has been taking place for long time now. I am talking about the agitation going on against the Marathi Play – “Mi Nathuram Godse Boltoy”. The worst of this agitation is that it is done by a party which is part of State Government. I am not sure who are these to decide whether a play is harming people’s conscience. Don’t these people have better issues to tackle? I guess since these parties can’t handle the inflationary situation well, so they are looking for such side issues to divert people’s attention. What can we say about a state where an Additional collector of a district is burnt alive!

And when a prominent MLA of the party was interviewed on TV he claimed that since court has already termed Nathuram Godse as guilty, there is no need for any writer to put forward his views which he says have been falsified by the court. Well, my question is that if you really feel so great about court why not use ways which can be upheld in a court. I feel really disappointed looking at the recent situation in India and Maharashtra in particular. Hope we come out of this mess quickly!

My favorite Dialogue : Vegeta's Respect

I wanted to publish this since long time, but always postponed it, waiting for the right time. Well actually it is not a dialogue, since only one person is speaking.  This dialogue is from my favorite Cartoon serial DragonballZ and is spoken by my favorite character Vegeta . The scene is in the climax of the serial, in one of the final episodes. To give you an idea why I like it, let me give you some idea about DragonballZ . The characters Goku and Vegeta are one of the most important characters in the series. Goku, the protagonist, who is actually an alien from a planet called Vegeta and is one of the last of his race Saiyan . But unlike the Saiyans who are naturally aggressive, fight-loving, brutal, strongest warriors in the world, he is very calm, naive. He hates to be a Saiyan, when he realizes that he belongs to such a killing race. According to his blood line and roots on planet Vegeta, he is a third grade soldier in the Saiyan Army. On the contrary, Vegeta is the Prince o...

Natrang

I seriously don’t remember the last time I watched a Marathi movie in a theater, so according to my memory this was the first time I saw a Marathi Movie in a theater. And where?? The center point of recent controversy, Bharatmata, whose owners have been asked by NTC to vacate the place. Well, I will discuss that point in another post. Now, let us talk about the movie. I must admit it was a pleasure to watch Natrang in Bharatmata. The theater is located in central Mumbai near Lalbaug, which was dominated by Marathi mill workers in the yesteryears. Viraj had gone to PVR Lower Parel to buy the tickets. But since it would have cost us Rs. 150 each, I felt that it was too costly and asked Viraj to watch the movie in some other theater or on some other day. Since, Bharatmata was the nearest theater he decided to go there. I also left from home to join him. When I went there, there was a huge line for ticket. I didn’t tell Viraj but I had just 30 bucks in my wallet at that time, but what y...
