Entertainment- At any cost!!!

Jai Sai Master!

"It is wonderful film! Shot over 30 locations and spent over 2 crores..beautiful ra!!"
"What a waste of time? lousy da machha!"
"Oh my goodness..!!Crazy...nothing in this movie makes sense. No story, no proper editing..only music is somewhat good...!! "

These are some of the common lines that you hear when you go around with friends and infact, some that I heard during my days. However, once we start using a little bit of common sense, suddenly we realise, IT was a real waste of time and effort and we have been looted or cheated in the name of entertainment, sometimes, cheap entertainment..!!

Cinema is a real industry.. The only industry, probably, which will never get tired as there is someone or other who is intelligent enough to play with the dubmbo that we are, who are ready to part with any amount to "enjoy" that entertainment. Probably, this is the only field, where we end up losing in every sense and every director or actor who is suppose to be entertaining us, is getting away with money with no responsibility what-so-ever. 

We pay for the movie..we sit through what ever time..we pay for the snacks or drinks.. we come back and if we are not strong mentally, live in those dreams wasting more and more time. But the sub-conscious which picks up the pictures, comes out at an opportune time playing on our emotions. If we closely observe, if we are movie buff, we cry like a particular person or like in a particular movie even. It so happens, that everyone who is getting in to college or getting married or going to be a father... always will have some reel infront of him that is going-on, and falls flat as the real life never matches with reel life. Media, overall, has influenced every family to form opinions. Every member of the family of will have an opinion on every subject and hence, the total outlook never converges. Elders always feel that younger lot is horrible due to the influences, but never works on remedies. 

While many of us feel intelligent, if we really observe ourselves with cinema or any media (buying or watching TV) watch, we understand that we are the dumbest of all for we pay for our entertainment and spend our valuable time to write critique of it or even read it. Are we intelligent and educated? 

Jai Sai Master!!
