Sometime.....
Sometime it happens that you find yourself in the same time as you were in some time back
Sometime life becomes stagnant that it asks for change; though we wish to change but we lack in what changes to be made to change which is not changed.
Sometime you could not make good impression in some time but this some time leaves an impact over few more some time

White Tiger/Slumdog Millionaire depicts the real 'India' !!...I doubt
Yesterday I finished reading the Booker award winning book" White Tiger" by Arvind Adiga and also watched Slumdog Millionaire(pirated one, As they won so many awards they do not need money from me :P) . These two depict the India whose more than 70% population live in rural and belong to lower middle class and poor class.I am segmenting my views based on different angles.
Audience's view: Recently I heard a lot about this book and movie, but frankly speaking after reading this book and watching this movie I did not find anything new or exciting facts which were unknown to me. Actually it depends on a reader/audience which group he belongs to, if he is from upper class, for him this book/movie puts a rural and sick India whose every second citizen out of three is grappling with surviving issues in life everyday but as I belong to middle class I did not find anything new, may be because since my childhood I have seen all these things happening around my place or in my society so I can give a try to pick a brush and paint a picture of lower class people's life style and their ideology.
Time frame view:The way writer/director puts India's picture, I am not fully agreed to them. This might be the case in around 1990s in India when bureaucracy and politics were on peak for sucking their own country's blood after Mughals and Britishers. At that time even if a person wanted to be a honest and wanted to live his life happily, he was not allowed to do that neither by society nor by the norms made by our great leaders.
Philosophical view:
Every Country has their positive and negative points. We are much better in no. of intellectuals ,research, man power. We are largest democratic in world. Now we have recognized our strength or we are working on it. There is no point in worrying about weak point by overlooking our strong points.
I like the one line from the book
'We were looking for the key for years but door was always open'.
Social view:
Book does not put more emphasis on caste system, by which I am fully agreed. Now everywhere 'professionalism' has taken the place the of 'caste system'. who has skills he is getting priority. We have not fully taken this but atleast we have now started something in this direction. 2 -3 generation down the line this thing will fade away. Still there are issues like reservations,quotas but in a long run, things will be fine . Insha Allah!!!!!!!!!!
Political view:
Now a days voters understand their roles and responsibilities better than ever in Indian history. Media has played a key role in this awareness.Their sting operations, have made havoc in every fraternity where it is casting couch in film industry or any political scam like telgi,chara etc. But still there is a lot to focus.
A lot of young bloods are entering into politics. A ray of hope from this endless dark room!
Economic view: India means a billions customers, a huge market where any company would like to invest. Because of this huge number of customers 'Economy of scale' plays a vital role for profitability and 'core competency' is also another side of coin. Government still has rules and regulations over private firms but they are not as strict as they were around before 1991.
There are few obstacles in way, we need to focus more upon infrastructure. loop holes into Internal security may hamper economic growth.
Mythological view: Indians are mainly dependent on one ideology that they adopt everything without much consciences . first they oppose a little bit and then start adjusting themselves . and think or believe that on day one leader like krishna or Raama will come and make them free from all these boundness. We need to get rid from this kind of ideology but his will only happen when once we start trusting in ourselves.
In final words I would say India may not be a Tiger (US) but it is like an Elephant which can not run fast but has tremendous stamina.

Vo Apne The Ya Paraye
Jindagi ki raah par hum to, unka Haath Thaame chalte rahe,
Ek hi majil hogi, yahi Man hi Man sochte rahe,
Par kuch ghadi ki mulakato se Lamhe Ghattate rahe
Aur mere dil aur dhadkan use Jindagi Samjhate rahe
Sab pata tha unhe fir bhi, jaankar hume Vo Uljhaate rahe,
Deke hume apna sahara, hame aur Lachaar Banaate rahe,
Hame chhod ke tanha, vo Khule Aam hum pe haste rahe,
Aur mere dil me sawan ki jhadi se Kai Dariya bante rahe.
Ek hi majil hogi, yahi Man hi Man sochte rahe,
Par kuch ghadi ki mulakato se Lamhe Ghattate rahe
Aur mere dil aur dhadkan use Jindagi Samjhate rahe
Sab pata tha unhe fir bhi, jaankar hume Vo Uljhaate rahe,
Deke hume apna sahara, hame aur Lachaar Banaate rahe,
Hame chhod ke tanha, vo Khule Aam hum pe haste rahe,
Aur mere dil me sawan ki jhadi se Kai Dariya bante rahe.
