The Great Indian Independence Struggle

A struggle that began with Gandhi has now brought us fighting once again for Mr. Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi. Gandhi is dead? Who said so? He still lives in the Indian currency note. Take out the 100 Rupee note and Gandhi smiles back at you. That smiling man is smiling in heaps of bundles of notes in our neta's pockets and bank accounts (Of course -not in terms of Gandhis, but in terms of Benjamin Franklins and whoevers).

India is now united against one of India's biggest diseases (not AIDS). CORRUPTION. India's biggest bhimari (disease). Leading from the front is one man named Anna Hazare, who is emulating Gandhi by uniting an entire country to fight corruption. A non-violent struggle, which will always be a thorn in any government's flesh, be it the Empire in which the sun never sets, or the filthy money monging Indian politician who all come from varied backgrounds. Right from A.Raja to Manmohan Singh (who is branded as "Mr. Clean") every single one of them is party to a crime which has taken place against a billion people.

Can this government even think of contesting the next elections? If anyone from this govrnment contests and wins the next election - it means 2 things, one - we are dumb and stupid and we do not eat food (please substitute food with it being processed out of our bodies) and two - it means that probably that person will get his good share soon.

The Indian government formed by the Indian National Congress and its allies, which includes the DMK of which A.Raja was a minister, has only done everyting that it possibly could to ensure that no one will ever vote for them again. Scams of the magnitude of Lakh Crore Rupees were unheard of until Mr. A. Raja was caught. A scam of such a huge magnitude took place with no knowledge of the Prime Minister of India? Nonsense. Rubbish. And Dr. Manmohan Singh wants to stay out of the Jan Lokpal?

Everyone is equal in the eyes of the law and our lawmakers do everything that they possibly can to make sure that they stay above the law. This Congress government is even worse than our colonial rulers who imposed absolutely dictatorial acts to undermine the Indian people. What is being done is very similar to what happened then. The sun set on the British Empire and it won't be long before corruption and the corrupt in India meets their fate.

Cleaning India of corruption is no mean feat and it will require a lot of effort from us the people - remember - We are a republic - by the people, of the people and for the people. The day we root out corruption will be the day that we can really call ourselves an independent nation. Our grandparents used to wonder if we would be able to live in a Free India, today we are wondering if we might be able to give our grandchildren (if not our own children) a Free India - an India, free from corrupt netas, incompetent and yet such useless governments (which are filled to the brim with people like Kanimozhi and A.Raja and the lot).

Can we make India corruption free? I hope it happens. I would like to see my India corruption free. I hope we all live to see the day that corrupt politicians get CORRECT punishment and a government, which actually is made by the people, of the people and for the people.

INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION!!!!!!

P.S: Did you put up your facebook/twitter status for Independence day? Food for thought.

Alaipayuthey....

One LOVE story that I truly Love. Of course, I hate stupid love stories like "I hate luv storys". But, Alaipayuthey.. NEVER. Right from the moment I stepped out of the theater, I was thinking "what a love story.. so, is this what love is?" And I was just in 9th standard at that time.

11 years have rolled by since that Mani Ratnam masterpiece, so many movies have come and gone, so many love stories, told, forgotten and buried, but Alaipayuthey - has only managed to make me fall in love with it, all over again, every single time that I see the movie.



And it is only when I look back I suddenly realized -  11 years have gone by!!! Wow.. and it just seemed like yesterday night that I walked out of Devi theater after watching this.

I don't think I need to tell this movie's story now, as everyone would have watched it quite a few times - thanks to Sun Tv, Vijay Tv, etc. However, I must say, it is such a timeless classic, which has only been so enjoyable, that I have never been able to quit watching this movie.

Well, coming to the question - "What is love?" That's a very tough question to answer. Different people have different meanings. However, it will all come down to just that special someone, who can turn each of our lives up side down.

I guess I have run out of words to write about this movie and about love. I think I was better off just watching it for the billionth time and I am going back to continue it. I hope, I have performed an Inception on you to go watch the movie now. :)
