Black? ( written yrs bk )

I had heard so much about ’’Black’’ ...even before it was completed.So when it was released the rave reviews and media attention it got was not surprising.

My family had booked a sunday date with it. Considering what was in store for me....I decided to give it the go by. Living in the country we live , there is so much of woe all around us ...the last thing I’d actually consider would be paying to watch the same , that to on a sunday evening.

In India all things 'Black' exist in every street.Just be sensitive to it and u will notice the pain ..the injustice... the fear ...the insecurity.....and yet the courage and spirit.

The real heros are out there , nameless.

From the reviews that ive read... pretty reassuring to know that there are few people who agree with me....their perspective is not mainstream. Yet to add on a song on to this movie would seem out of place.....probably it could have worked better the other way around ..... add a movie to a meaningful song in this context (if you know what i'm saying).

I respect the theme this movie is based on...and if any benefit however little that can come to the people in plight...its worth all the effort.

You’re free to differ in this regard.

Donno whats more store in that movie which I missed...years back...I might have missed.....who knows ;)
