SARDAR - THE KING OF SHADOW


Sardar...


In India  people only love and respect person who is on no.1. no one care for who come second or even who help no.1 to reach that person.We are just use to praise Gandhiji for helping india to be free from British but sadly we are forgotten lots of others who have worked really hard give their life their family everything just for make India independent.

With total respect to Gandhiji, He is really done great job and motivate everyone to do the work. but we really forgotten the work sardar had done.The toughest time for survive for India was from 1947 to 1950. because we were independent but don't have nothing in our hands. All India was distributed in approx,560 constitutes and they are run by Kings and Prince of that constitute. Sardar has done greatsest work to make 545 constitute to sign them to india and make united India. and his colleague has given only one state Jammu & Kashmir. and that issue is still on bar.

In 1980’s peoples are discussing how values of gandhiji are working in today’s era. in 2012 people are still discussing same. movies like lage raho munnabhai reminds us about bapu we think for few days then forgotton. but i think we should discuss about sardar and we have to give him honor to be like sardar. As i started with we forget for no. 2. We forget about sardar. We really require leader (not politician) like sardar .He was man with honor  working for 24×7 country. Sardar was pillar of Indian history and we forgotten him really badly.

To deal with kings and prince of more then 500 constitutes and convince them without any war is one of greatest achievement in history of India  Way he tackle issue of Hyderabad and junagadh was really good. He work for 24 hours. He went to delhi and kolkata to stop riots he went to muslim’s home and request them to control their self and also control hindus also.

I really like sardar most because of one reason, that he leave post of first prime minister of India  Gandhiji wants him. all elected persons were with him but just ego of one person.he left his place and be deputy to him and this is real sacrifice(not which drama Mrs.Sonia Gandhi done ). At that time he just work for india not for position  He told his son not to come to delhi till he was home minister so no 1 can try to use his son for his post. Sardar was not only good leader but also good father.Her daughter maniben patel was one of most active leader at that time but she never use his father’s postion to come up. She was using “ratio” and making cloths for sardar and after that cloths were old she use for her self. (Are you reading mayawati and jaylalita???). It was really great culture given to her by sardar.

Now let’s sardar’s life before he became sardar. Vallabhbhai Patel was son of ladba jhaverbhai patel. He was not come first in studies but he finished his metrics with good marks. everyone in family thought he will be same like other boys find something and start work again but his thinking was bit different he apply for law and study for lawyer. This time he knows about gandhi and he really don't like him. He thinks by just using less cloths can we send British back? He was married with Jhaverba and having 2 children Maniben and Dahyabhai.

He went to london and practice for law and make money then come back and start practicing. There was medical surgery on his wife Jhaverba and he was fightning case in court, while he was cross-examine witness he got note informing him demise of his wife but he read and put it in his shirt and again start asking que. with same passion same heart. After winning case he was just cried there and urgently rush to hospital. He decided not to merry again and give his childern best future.



Vallabhbhai once listen gandhiji and really impress from him and start reading about him and everythinng. When bapu ask Indians to devote their life for nation Vallabhbhai agreed without any hesitation  He started work as candidate in congress. He lead the champaran satyagrah again British then he work in kheda and bardoli. here he got name sardar patel and then known as sardar for lifetime.

Sardar devote his all life for india.He was not like to only work with labours or only with industrialist. He has very good relation with J.R.D.TATA, Sarabhai. but he never use this realation for personal use. He use his own pen to do personal work and other pen for official work. He taken lot of money from industrialist and use that very efficintly in india.

HATS OFF TO YOU SARDAR

There is lot to right but i stop my self now with few lines which sardar said about division of india and pakistan all in his words….

“I fully appreciate the fears of our brothers from [the Muslim-majority areas]. Nobody likes the division of India and my heart is heavy. But the choice is between one division and many divisions. We must face facts. We cannot give way to emotionalism and sentimentality. The Working Committee has not acted out of fear. But I am afraid of one thing, that all our toil and hard work of these many years might go waste or prove unfruitful. My nine months in office has completely disillusioned me regarding the supposed merits of the Cabinet Mission Plan. Except for a few honourable exceptions, Muslim officials from the top down to the chaprasis (servants) are working for the League. The communal veto given to the League in the Mission Plan would have blocked India’s progress at every stage. Whether we like it or not, de facto Pakistan already exists in the Punjab and Bengal. Under the circumstances I would prefer a de jure Pakistan, which may make the League more responsible. Freedom is coming. We have 75 to 80 percent of India, which we can make strong with our own genius. The League can develop the rest of the country”

We are proud to be Indian like you..

F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

We all do extremely silly things we wish we could undo. We all screw up, sometimes, horribly so. Who else to teach us that everything will be okay than our trusted Friends? Let's take a leaf from the books of one of the greatest TV series ever made!

Today, we’d like to applaud the goof ups, the blunders and the messes they created; no matter how badly they screw up, they pick themselves up with gusto and move on with life – reminding us that no matter how bad things seem, it ain’t the end! So have a look at our list of the best Friends’ episodes, where we commemorate some of their finer gaffes:

The One After Ross Says Rachel
Little slip-ups happen at weddings all the time. Although, we doubt taking the wrong name at the altar comes under the definition of ‘little slip-up.’ In Ross Geller’s case, it led to a full blown out catastrophe with Emily walking out on him. Taking Rachel along on their honeymoon didn’t help matters either.

The One Where Ross Got High
Rachel Green may have been the hottest waitress New York has ever seen, but she wasn’t exactly what you’d call ‘bright.’ As amply proved in the episode where she attempts to make desert for an important Thanksgiving dinner. Unfortunately, the cookbook pages get stuck together and she ends up making a trifle that’s half trifle, half shepherd’s pie. Yes, Rachel actually serves a trifle comprising of ladyfinger, jam, custard, raspberries, beef sautéed with peas and onions, bananas and whipped cream. Thank God for Joey and his glutton tendencies which save the day!

The One With Ross’ Teeth
Socially awkward as Chandler might be, even he can’t outdo Ross in the horrible date stakes. In order to prep himself up for his date, Ross goes a bit overboard whitening his teeth. And by overboard, we mean he colours his teeth to an in-your-face, blinding shade of white – the kind that detergent ads on the telly pride themselves on. Ross manages to save the date by barely saying a word and covering up his mouth while speaking. That is, until the end when his date, Hilary, sees his teeth glow neon white in the darkness. Sigh. Looks like Cupid is just not into Ross.

The One With Rachel’s Inadvertent Kiss
Even the smartest of us turn into nervous wrecks when it comes to job interviews. Which is why you can excuse Rachel for misinterpreting the interview’s politeness and kissing him. Except that she goes back the next day and tells him off for trying to make sexual advances onto her. Later on realizing her mistake, she goes back the third day and apologizes and all goes well. Until it is time for her to leave, Rachel innocently reaches out to shake his hand and ends up grabbing his crotch. Ouch!

The One Where Emma Cries
In all honesty, we all occasionally zone out during office meetings. Falling asleep during one is probably is a step too far, and sadly, Chandler ends up paying dearly for it. He dozes on and off during an important office meeting and accidentally ends up accepting to shift to Tulsa, Oklahoma. After getting pressure from Monica, he tries to wean himself free but screws it up by calling his boss by the wrong name, mistaking her daughter for her son and ends up saving face by telling that he’d love to go to Tulsa.

The One Where Rachel’s Sister Babysits
Popping the question is no easy task, and unfortunately for Mike, he messes it up not once, but three times before getting it right. He plans for an elaborate proposal during half time at an NY Knicks game jut to have Phoebe tell him that how cheesy she finds onscreen proposals. Later on, eh hides the ring in the cake just as Phoebe tells him how predictable it is. He finally pulls it out, cleans it and they get engaged on the fourth try. Ah well three botched proposals aren’t heartening for a guy’s ego but if he plans to marry Phoebe Buffay, he’d better get used to all the craziness!

While Friends was all about having a good time, the show occasionally touched upon issues in a more serious vein. Chandler and Monica’s desire for a child, for instance. Eager to impress the adoption agency, they select Joey to write a testimony for them. However, he sends it in handwritten which leads the agency to believe that a kid wrote it. Determined to get it right, Joey writes another letter, and enlists the help of a thesaurus to make it seem classy. The only glitch is that he ends up using the thesaurus on every single word. The letter turns from, “They are nice human beings with big hearts” to “They are pre-possessing humid sapiens with full sized aortic pumps!”

So the next time you mess up in front of scores of people, just lose yourself in an episode of Friends.  If Ross can take another girl’s name on the altar and survive, you definitely will!

GoW - Anurag Kashyap ne KAHE KE LI....

"Abe ye WASSEYPUR hai, yaha kabootar bhi ek pankh se udta hai aur dusre se apni ijjat bachata hai"

Year 2012 has been very astonishing for Bollywood. Bollywood has delivered some awesome flicks ranging from Paan Singh Tomar, Vicky Donor, Chhodo Kal ki baatien,Barfi, I am 24, Life ki to lag gayi, OMG Oh My God, English Vinglish, Aiyya and many other movies. There will be movies like Love Shuv Te Chikan Khurana in this year only. So over all this year had been very very excited for bollywood. If you see the above list, you can notify that most of them are not having many superstars and all. but stories and screenplay is great for them.

Apart from All these movies, Movies that made statement this year are "Gangs of Wasseypur" and "Gangs of Wasseypur 2". If you want to learn how to make a movie, This two movies will be best examples of that. When we talk about mafia movies, first movies always comes to our mind is God Father series or Scarface. but I think this is movies which are changing this field. These movies are as good as God Father.

This movie is based on Wasseypur and Dhanbad of India. Where story started in year of 1940 when working of coal blocks are on and it makes issues between Ramadhir Singh and Shahid Khan. and apperantly Shahid Khan's son Sardar khan decides to take revenge. After Ramadhir kill Sardar Khan. his son Faizal try to get revenge.

Today We talk about 5 different aspect of this movie,where they have done awesome job.

Dialogues and Songs

"Goli nahi marenge use, Uski kahe ke lenge" , " Itna goli maarenge ki tumhara driver khali khokhe bech ke ameer ho jayega"

These are just examples of what treat you will be have when you watch movie. There are different ways to explain thing and in this movie they have choosen extereme levels for same. The language is core of that state. Few years ago, when someone speak in that type of bihari, it looks outdated. but this movie had made movie that language "in-thing". Local language and way actors communicate in movie are very profound and deeply developed. For Example, There is one song in which they have efficiently take so many english word and attach them directly or use them like they are bihari words only.

Jo bhi wrongwa hai usey,
Set Rightwa karoji,
Naahin Loojiye ji hope,
Thoda fightwa Karoji.....

Now here they have superbly used english words without any fuss. and even u don't feel that this song is having english words.

Screen play and Back Ground

Movie shooted in villages of Varanasi to give feeling of
Bihar and Jharkhand
Movies like these, always require special back ground and places where they are shooting, because this movie represents some places like bihar, Jharkhand. and it must show locality of that level. And Anurag Kashyap had done masterclass work in this part.

When you see movie, you can see buildings, vehicles which represent those times, those era and also locality. As home of Sardar Khan is same in old movie but it's architecture or structure perfectly belongs to bihar look.

Screen play has also been one of major factors of successful movie. Actors like Manoj Bajpayee, Tigmanshu Dhuliya, Nawazudin Sidiquie, Huma Querishi and Piyush Mishra are part of film and As a director Anurag Kashyap had bring best from all of them.

Time Line

GoW starts in era of 1940 and last scene of movie is of 2009. Now when you want to show almost 70 years, It is very difficult to show changes on screen. It's not about showing a particular year on screen and say it's changed. It takes lot more then that. and That is best part of this movie.


Sardar khan Travelling on bike with
2 others
Way years are changed in movie or story moves forward, it is having changes in related story, in first part people are trying to use landline phone with very difficulty and in second part when it belongs to era of 90s and early 2000s it shows people using pager. and it last era they are showing people using mobile in  movies.

Same thing is applied with vehicle they are using, way back in starting, Ramadhir singh is using FIAT AMBASSADOR and Sardar khan is using Jeep. In future when things got chaged. cars and bikes and all are also changed. One of great example of this is when in second part we can see "Definate" is driving on bike and other guy was chasing him on scooter. that's the scene to watch to check indian roads and vehicles running on it.



 Names and Situation

Names of actors in this movie are also make it so much special. Ranging from "Sultan Qureshi" to "Sardar Khan" and also have strange names like "Definate" and "Perpendicular" and "Tangent".

As movie is not about Killing people, but survival of one, it shows people are desprate to kill other. When they do that, it must be shown by their name and their look, and Anurag Kahsyap had done great job in it.

Tribute to Bollywood.

"Tumhe pata hai ham pichle 55 saalo se ham wassepur pe kyo raj karte hai? kyo ki ham sanima nahi dekhte. hamare vakt me Rajesh Khanna tha, fir Amitabh Bachan aya.. aur aaj kal ye konsa? ha salman khan hai. magar ye sab dekh k insan batiya jata hai"

This is Ramadhir Singh says when he is talking to someone about change between 1940 and 2004. We all know that bollywood has completed 100 years. and I think this movie had given Tribute to them in real superb way. For every occasion, it can be marriage, birth or funeral. there is singer who is sings bollywood songs in desi way.

To describe years are changing, They have used great ways to change Posters of movie. They are showing "Maine Pyar Kiya" poster and after 5-10 mins when time era is move forward it's "Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge" Poster. Also Faizal Khan's wife is singing songs for him on phone when he is in jail of DDLJ.
Faizal Khan adopts Amitabh Bachchan style
 after watchin his movies.

There are many more instances like, "Perpendicular" is giving Jadu ki Jhappi to random guy after watching Munnabhai M.B.B.S. or Faizal Khan is having hairstyle and looks like Amitabh Bachhan after watching his films. and when Faizal delivers dialouge"sala me to amitabh me se shashi kapur ban gaya".







This movie is path breaking in many many ways explaining the way of Indian behaviour and mentality at same time stick to it's main story with so many subplots and things.


HATS OFF TO ANURAG KASHYAP and his team to deliver something that will be never ever seen on screen again.
