BOLO RAM

Friends, I saw this film.  I loved the mother-son relationship that goes into the story. The Suspense gets me along with the superb roles by senior artistes like Om Puri and Nasiruddin Shah. What startles at the end is the very end. How I could get fooled into watching this, and HONestly I still admire the play, the actores, the pritagonists, the dialogues, the sets,the whole film……………… Centrally a sinister plot is played by the Purohit, who used to train Ram on the dharma, and Ram japping the Maha-Mrityunjay Mantra, Ram beating up Rapists, his friend distancing him on that,   we do not know yet why we are being told all this…… It is only at the end when we Find an, obvious Muslim Terrorist(it’s not my conclusion, but a critique), and Rama heroically performing last rites, well I dont see any heroism there, but his MOM’s pixture at that juncture reminds us of Mother India–Rama.
A bit rewind : Rama tells the terrorist before killing him…. Maa Mashab ke upar hota hain. Picture perfect, great goal acheived in the society and a lesson taught, Samaj nahin desh, ek admi ka soch sein……. Whatever, now while scribbling here I remember A Wednesday.
True reaction, or Mindful intervention For the uninitiaded into polemics, I illustrate, jab jab logo ko gussa dila saktein ho, Wo khush, Aap KHUsh. Bolo, Raaam!
