We won an Oscar!...Or did we?

They say We've won an Oscar! How come ? It's not an Indian Film, it's just an American Point of View of how dirty, criminal infested, immoral and poverty stricken India is.
Our "Hero" is a Slum Dog! representing us at the so called highest platform of Motion Picture Art. A Slum Dog with a dream of becoming a millionaire(a fantasy at the most!),

We won an Oscar, how proud are we! If someone says "but they are trashing our country", we like the hypocrite pseudo-intellectuals we dismiss him, "but he doesn't understand art,and you can't accept the truth"!

I really don't have problem accepting the truth but is that all India has to offer? I don't say keep your eyes turned away from that which is bad, but don't glorify it? Let us not make the slums our national symbol and a slum dog our mascot!We must not stay in a world of Self-delusion and overlook what we lack but in no way should we glorify our faults and portray that in front of the World and what more be proud of it?

It is almost like being naked in front of the public and be proud of the lack of clothing. Ii f we continue this then we are nothing but a bunch of unpatriotic, shameless, masochists BASTARDS...yes BASTARDS...for are we not glorifying the life and origin of a Slum Dog?

Yes Gulzar and A.R.Rahman has won an Oscar, but really is that the best they can do?

Gulzar with his lyrics can actually weave spells(listen to "mera wo saamaan laotado")

A.R.Rahman, have you listened to Roja or Bombay? The maestro who has made the sound track of one of the greatest piece of Hollywood movie soundtracks(The Lord Of The Rings), does "Jay Ho" does honour to his genius?

I only laugh upon the fools who celebrate this "victory", in effect they are celebrating their loss!

SLUM.....
DOG.....


MILLIONAIRE ??


Is this our Destiny???
