SCB to DKB

Indian public senses have changed from independance till today. No i am not starting favorite topic ridiculed by PL in Mhais. "It was different in preindependence days" starts a local politician to all travellers in that ill fortunate bus in Mhais...

But what really amazes me that Delly Belly is appealing to audience. Its a shocking film. Very entertaining and realistic though. The youth in the films talk same language as youth of today. After reconnecting with youth in trek this summer i can appreciate it more. Its the same way we used to talk at IIT though we were not sexually active as the hero here being left at kgp amongst batch of 35 boys and 6 girls. The graphic nature of film shocks and people can identify. Plot is hilarious and non issue but the film hits you in every frame. Period not a classic by any means neither a landmark film. But a film which you cannot watch with family. A film of todays generation and drives on their cool quotient. and the song DK Bose epitomises care a damn attitude of film makers and audience
In preindependance days S C bose (SCB)had garnered entire nation's imagination by means of sacrifice, values and struggle. Entire generation was working towards idealistic goals. They beleived that new dawn will arrive with independance. Whole society will develop. That was language of youth those days.
We lost the way in between due to false socialism policies and corruption. Globalization was inevitable after liberalization. and todays generation is product of that process and Delhi belly represents that. I am not judgemental by pointing out difference of values but am amazed by forces of change.....
