Quality over Quantity

 

You might be surprised that i came up with this topic but i have already mentioned that I am a media student and this is familiar to me. Lets talk about our Indian Cinema where Dadasaheb Phalke is credited with producing India’s first feature-length movie, Raja Harishchandra, about a mythological king who gave up his empire and family to keep a promise to a saint. He was the one who made and laid a solid foundation followed by Satyajit Ray, Ajoy Kar ,Tapan Sinha,  Kamal Haasan, Vijay Anand, Jyoti Swaroop, Singeetham Srinivasa Rao, Guru Dutt, K Viswanath, Mrinal Sen etc (end of thinking capability).The films earlier were way too relatable and were beautifully created but now the scenario has changed as there is more weight to non logical entertainment movies. From “Yaara teri yaari ko Maine to khuda maana” to “APNA SAPNA MONEY MONEY”. I envy the ones who actually lived, laughed and dealt with that era, keeping aside the stereotype thinking i appreciate the film industry then.

Keeping this aside, lets concentrate on the Revenue generated THEN vs NOW :-

Obviously Todays revenue generation in higher than the earlier era because of different OTT platforms. Can’t blame the directors as we audience either want military or comedy content in a movie, no wonder URI generated over 875 % of the original cost of the movie. But Kabir Singh??? No doubt Shahid Kapoor , Kiara Advani , Sohum Majumdar were great as actors but what did the movie convey? Despite of the debated positive points it failed to give proper teachings.

Anyways this topic is vast and so are the thoughts of the audience ,it is important for the movies to channalize their thoughts in a good way. Appreciate the quality and not the quantity where India is just keeping up to produce more films despite the content.

Women-“Blogging is Difficult”

  A  blog is an online journal in which you share your thoughts about a particular subject with readers. It is a way to stay in touch or a “way to BE the news”. You are reading my blog and also processing the words in the flow. Not trying to hypnotise but waking up your 6th sen se. This also means that you are   Able   enough to differentiate between right, wrong or fact and fiction. The term used for this ability have to be “ opinionated “. Blogs are being used to speak on everything the main stream media is afraid to say and this should be an encouraging term for expressing ones opinion and not staying idle even after having the knowledge. You are an individual then why cant you have an individual opinion? “Men get attacked for their opinions, and women get attacked because they have opinions,” well said by   Vox producer and correspondent Liz Plank. Studies show women writers receive more negative feedback, regardless of the topic. Only 20% news out...

Life Lessons From Death: An Inside Story

I  recently finished reading  Death: An Inside Story  by Sadhguru, and honestly, it left me feeling a lot different about death — and life too. I’ve always found the idea of death unsettling, almost too big to wrap my head around. But Sadhguru has this surprisingly casual, almost light-hearted way of talking about it. He doesn’t see death as this terrifying end, but rather as something natural, like a return home. And weirdly, that perspective actually made me feel more at ease. One part that really hit me was how he describes death as less of an end and more of a transition. He talks about it as a journey that happens to the energy within us, not just our bodies. Thinking of death that way makes it feel less like an abrupt stop and more like a shift. I’m not sure if I buy into all of it literally, but it’s definitely a comforting way to see things. What I also loved is that Sadhguru doesn’t just throw around big ideas; he gives small, practical steps. He suggests just si...

How My Gut Feeling Saved Me from a Potential Travel Scam: A Cautionary Tale

In today’s fast-paced world, staying vigilant about potential scams has never been more crucial, especially when it comes to finances. Here’s my recent experience where trusting my instincts helped me avoid a potential travel scam, and hopefully, it serves as a reminder for others to stay cautious. The Encounter: Too Good to Be True? It all began when my friend and I were on a road trip from Navi Mumbai to Lonavala. On our way back, we stopped for refreshments. Out of nowhere, a man approached us with an offer that seemed too good to pass up. He said they were distributing coupons with the chance to win amazing gifts—ranging from phones to TVs and other electronics. Feeling curious, we decided to try our luck. My friend received a "Better Luck Next Time" message on his coupon. Then, the man handed me another coupon, assuring me that I might win, as others hadn’t been so lucky. To my surprise, I got a "Congratulations!" and was told I had won a prize. All I needed to...
