Is rang de basanti just another film??

Reviews are a plenty all along the web about this wonderfully made movie
So no point in me reviewing the movie ..
It is a breather among the present films breaking all the clichés of a typical bollywood movie ishtyle.
The point is that one of my friends felt that there was no point in movies such as this for they are mere movies and the proposed solutions bear no relevance to the day to day life.
The story line of the movie gets impractical at some points like capturing the radio station and broad casting the message..agreed

But there is a ceiling to the realism that can prevail in any cinema and rang de basanti does a very neat job in this regard.
The underlying parameter here is that how effective is a movie of this kind in getting the audience attention towards it. (Cmon..Even god needs to be marketed these days in order to get attention)

For instance, we can compare the much hyped mangal pandey with this film in terms of being effective. Though mangal got its due attention , thanks to amir’s new found girl friend , the movie failed to have any impact on the audience. Commercialism over took mainstream cinema with amisha‘s item number being deliberately pushed in.

Not only did rang de basanti succeed in getting the audience attention, but it also clearly conveyed the message it intended to in a subtly loud manner. The aim of the story was to give the audience a jolt of the reality and not to propose a solution.

No body likes advise and this is a sugar coated pill..

So next time u feel u need a practical solution, why don’t u try an astrologer ???
