RANG DE BASANTI.............


Since 18th when i watched it , i've been drawn to post a blog on it. well in my opinion rang de basanti is one of the most majestically made movies of our era ... HATS OFF TO RAKEYSH OMPRAKASH MEHRA !!! wat a great movie! awe-inspiring for one & a great entertainer as well . to tell u the truth i was caught unawares when the movie concluded , as if in a rowling-esque trance . without exaggeration , i could feel the blood surging beneath the subcutaneous layers of my skin ( flowery use of the expression , isn't it ?)
one hell of a great movie flick!!! though it may sound rhetorical , coming as it is from an 18 year old , but still i feel that the youth of our country have got to do some soul searching . though it may be unpractical but we have to move away from the odes of americanism we have become so attuned to in the new millenium . to quote from the chetan bhagat bestseller ' one night at the call center ':- junk food,colored fizzy water,dumbass credit cards and overpriced shoes.they call it the youth culture.is this what they think youth is about?we have just been reduced to a high-spending demographic."
On introspection one feels that we have got a lot to offer to our motherland in terms of monetary and intellectual perspective ... as DJ ( dats aamir khan in rang de...for the ignoramus)remarks -" abe paidh de #### , mainu na pata tha mere andar bhi ek aag hai "
signing off wid the lyrics of the song roobaroo which i simply adore ( it seems ethereal to me ) ,three cheers to rang de basanti!!!


aye saala
abhi abhi huaa yaqeen ki aag hai mujh mein kahi
hui subaah main chal gaya
suraj ko main nigal gaya
ruu-ba-ruu roshni heyy - 2
jo gumshuda-sa khwaab tha
voh mil gaya voh khil gaya
woh loha tha pighal gaya
kichhaa kichhaa machal gaya
sitaar mein badal gaya
ruu-ba-ruu roshni heyy - 2
(dhuaan chhataa khula gagan mera
nayi dagar naya safar mera
jo ban sake tu hamsafar mera
nazar mila zara) - 2
aandhiyon se jaghad rahi hai lau meri
ab mashaalon si bhad rahi hai lau meri
naamo nishaan rahe na rahe
ye kaaravaan rahe na rahe
ujaale mein pee gaya
roshan huaa jee gaya
kyon sehte rahe
ruu-ba-ruu roshni heyy - 2
dhuaan chhataa khula gagan mera
nayi dagar naya safar mera
jo ban sake tu hamsafar mera
nazar mila zara
ruu-ba-ruu roshni heyy - 2
