PRemier league and Mangal pandey
Written on Sunday, August 14, 2005 by Rohan Koshy
1. Saw mangal pandey thought it was really good .yeah a bit long but it's storytelling pace is frenetic.and Aamir is good though somehow a maharashtrian actor would be best to play the character i feel.Anyways it was beautifully directed and shot.Rani looks really fiery in it.But it started to make me think.We know that rulers write history so how important is this movie in shaping the character of mangal pandey in history.because as of now all we have is 2 pages on him,not even a proper photo and now this movie.in the future parts of this movie based on folklore, not written history, will be accepted as history.funny how history is written.No history turns into folklore,folklore into myth and myth re written as history.
So how uch do wanna believe personally i like him being projected as a hero even if there is evidence that he did what he did in a drunken state.Projection of a man into a folklore hero mostly helps people to remember the sacrifices made.
2.EPL the season has started and manu must win theres no alternative so i hope to see my team kick Chelsea's sorry A** ..
MANCHESTER UNITED FOR LIFE!!!
a quote from The Used
" live each day as if ur already DEAD"
Yeah.. its a good movie!
Somehow, wierdly, its awakened the patriotic feelings in me.
I think we shud atleast acknowledge the sacrifices of the heroes of our past, who made the herculian task of freedom, a reality, which we today,unfortunately, take for granted.
As for epl,Hey pls let me know everytime ManU plays!
not that im into the premier league but Man U sux's
GO THE GUNNERS
Mangal Pandey was a hero no doubt. As for the movie, its a movie in Bollywood.. so priority wise it has to sel to the masses which is why i feel they put in all the things for which there's no proof and sum of it seems unbelievable.. all said and done.. the movie was good.. As for Mangal.. He was the leader of the masses.. and must be acknowledged.. there could be a better way in which the story is told..
Not very much into Fusbal.. but Gunners are Gooners.. they're goin down!
