Review of movie PK

I watched movie PK on 23rd December 2014 on a team outing. I feel compelled to write a review of the story and message it was conveying.

Movie start with Amir Khan as a alien who does not know anything about this world. His mental state is just like a 3 year old boy who believes everything he is told by others. He is told by people that paying a Mandir will get him his remote control back so he prayed at Mandir. He is told that praying at Gurdwara will get him his remote control back so he prayed at Gurdwara. He is told that paying at Masjid will get his remote control back so he prayed at Masjid.

Later on Amir Khan became intelligent and social reformer and come to know that praying at Mandir is wrong and no one should pray at Mandir and people constructing temples and praying at temples are either fool or fraud. He goes to temple to get his money back from god because god did not get his work done. Why Amir Khan did not go to Masjid also to get his money back from Alah because his work is not done? Why he targeted Mandirs only? Does it have something to do with fact that Amir Khan himself is a Muslim? I think yes it have everything to do with him being Muslim.

Amir Khan started a TV program against construction of temples because as per him people constructing temple are villain. There is a villain in this movie, he is called Tapasviji. Villain Tapsviji have the following bad thing:

1.    He is motivating people to donate money for construction of a temple.

2.    He is saying that producing and consuming cigarette is bad.

3.    He is saying that consuming liquor is bad.  

Amir Khan and one other social reformer (Jaggu) is fighting against the social evil Tapasviji is spreading. Jaggu is shown drinking a bottle of intelligence enhancing drink (liquor) and Amir Khan who knows everything what is right and wrong is not saying to her that instead of buying this intelligence enhancing drink she could have donated food to some poor child and that would have be better. Amir Khan did not leave an opportunity to say that people should donate money to poor people instead of donating money to temples.

Why Amir Khan (PK who is a social reformer now) did not have courage to say that people should donate money for welfare of poor people instead of buying intelligence enhancing drinks. 10 times more money gets spent on intelligence enhancing drink compared to money being spent on religious purpose. Why social reformer PK was concerned about money being spent on religious purpose and that too only of Hindus?

I have seen people distributing food and clothes to poor people at Temple. I have never seen people distributing food to poor people outside shop of intelligence enhancing drink. It shows that people who believe in god are kindhearted and believe in giving to society. Why should a social reformer PK (Amir Khan) direct all his energy on removing idol worship (which is evil as per Islam) and not say anything about practice of spending money on intelligence enhancing drink?

Another thing which is shown in movie is that a Pakistani man is best lover that an intelligent Indian girl can get. I don't understand how an Indian girl can think of marrying a man for whom terrorists who kill innocent Indians are hero. This movie says that an Indian girl should marry a Pakistani boy if he is handsome and should not think about his Indian brothers being killed by brothers of this Pakistani boy. It is not right.

Now I talked about ending of the movie. In the end it is shown that father of the girl stops worshiping god and start drinking intelligence enhancing drink and it is happy ending as per Amir Khan. As per me it is not happy ending at all.

In the end will like to say that I am do the following things which are characteristics of a villein as per Amir Khan but I am proud to do and will keep doing:

1.    I do donate and motivate people to donate money for construction of a temple.

2.    I say that producing and consuming cigarette is bad.

3.    I say that consuming liquor is bad.

Is begging for one's wife's luxuries good or bad?

Yesterday I saw a movie called "PK" with my colleagues. This movie was really bad and was made with intentions to portray Hinduism in bad light. But that is not agenda of this post so I will defer that discussion to another post.

In this post I want to discuss a particular scene and my take on that. In this movie an old man comes to Amir Khan and begs 500 rupee on the pretext that his wife is ill and he need to get her admitted to hospital. Amir Khan is having special power that he can read anybody's mind by holding his hand, so he comes to know that he had taken his wife to a five star hotel for a dinner and his wife had ordered ice cream after dinner and his budget overshot so he left her on pretext of going to loo and came out to beg money strangers so that he can pay the bill of five star hotel. Amir Khan gave him 500 rupee and 100 rupee extra for tip.

Had I been in place of Amir Khan, I would have told this person who is begging for his wife's five star dinners that he should have told his wife that he can't afford ice cream instead of begging strangers for money. Begging for your wife or girlfriend's luxuries is worst thing a person can do. I will never beg for five star dinners for my wife.

Surprisingly when I told my opinion to my colleagues, they were angry with me, they told me that I have not right to say negative things about a person who is begging for noble cause of five star dinner for his wife or girlfriend. If I can't help such a great person then I should say sorry to him but never say any bad words about such persons. As per them a true husband is the one who can beg for five star dinners for his wife, if someone can't beg for his wife's five star dinner then it means that he doesn't love his wife.

I don't agree with my colleagues, as per me true love is based on trust and respect. Loosing self-respect for a woman (please note that I am not using the word wife) is because of lust and not for love. Love doesn’t decrease sense of self-respect but increase it. Had beggar be in true love with his wife, he would have faith in his wife that she will respect his limitations in terms of financial resources if he would have told his wife that they can't have ice cream after dinner in five star hotels. This beggar did not have faith in his wife's love but had a fear of diminishing look his wife would have given her if he would have said that his budget did not allow ice cream after dinner in five start hotel. That is why he chose to get insulted by strangers rather than getting insulted by his own wife. I don't see any love in this behavior.

In the same movie "PK" there was a dialog where Sanjay Dutt said that "MAN, AADMI, HARAMI and KUTTA" mean same thing. I did not agree to Sanjay Dutt that time but after discussion with my colleagues I think that I might have to change my opinion.

Rajdeep Sardesai attacks NRIs in USA

First time I met Rajdeep Sardesai was a few months back when he came as an expert opinion when me and some of my friends were discussing about Indian politics. He told us that we should vote for Arvind Kejriwal because he only can remove corruption from India and we should not vote for Narender Modi. I told him that I can't vote for a person who give clean chit to a company (TATA) caught in 2G scam in Buradi Maidan raily. Luckily his floor (1st floor) came and he left without abusing me or beating me but our friend NRI in USA was not that lucky.

First thing is that Rajdeep Sardesai think he alone is intelligent person and everyone must listen to him and speak what he want them to speak and if someone doesn't do that then he abuses them. That is why he interfered in our friendly conversation in which we all were having equal right and putting forward our views. He considered it to be his right to jump into someone else's conversation and give his politically motivated advice to us. Same thing he did in USA. He called people who deferred with him below class as you can see from this video.

Rajdeep Sardesai has strong political affiliation with Congress and Aam Admi Party and he is forwarding their agenda. Rajdeep Sardesai was asking people their opinion about 30% people who voted against Narender Modi and wanted people to say that only those 30% were intelligent and 70% people who voted for Modi were fools. But people did not say that but criticized Rajdeep Serdesai on his face. After this Rajdeep Serdesai went ahead and said that Modi was responsible for post Godhera riot in response to that he was told that Narender Modi has been given clean chit by Supreme Court of India and Rajdeep Serdesai is not an authority over Supreme Court.

Rajdeep Sardesai went ahead and asked people about who paid for their flight ticket. He was trying to prove that trip of people was sponsored by someone else. I have first-hand information that Rajdeep Sardesai's favorite party Aam Admi Party is paying 300 rupee per day to its so called volunteers. Why Rajdeep Sardesai never asked question that why volunteers are being paid money? And what is source of this money? Regarding that it is said that some right thinking rich people have donated money for poor volunteers and same money is being distributed to volunteers. If some right thinking rich people can donate money for AAP's volunteers that why can some right thinking BJP supporters donate money for tickets of Modi supporters. Rajdeep Sardesai's agenda can be seen from this clip.

When Rajdeep Sardesai was unable to carry his propaganda he started calling people gathered there as lower class and assholes which you can see from the below clipping when the victim called him back asshole Rajdeep Sardesai went ahead to beat him. This person was saved by his fellow gentlemen. No one assaulted Rajdeep Sardesai. It is clearly evident from this clipping.

For details of Rajdeep Sardesai's carrier and his rise please see the following video.

UPSC Exam Row

A government employee who understands only English and does not understand Hindi is worse than an illiterate because he can't understand language of common people whom he is supposed to serve. We need a government employee who can understand people. They need to understand English also as secondary skill and not their main skill. The main skill need to be knowledge of regional language because it helps in serving people better.

We need to remember that government employees are there to serve people and not rule them like in British time. If government employee needs to learn 2 or 3 languages to qualify for a IAS post then they better learn them, because government is paying money for their skills. So why government is giving special importance to a language which is spoken and understood only by 2% people? If knowledge of English is required than we can hire translator for that. We don't make Japanese language a mandatory language just because we need to have trade with Japan. If hiring translator looks expensive then we can hire people with multiple language skills. For purpose of being a good administrator English language is not a mandatory skill.

Currently admission in B.Sc., B.Tech, and many other courses are being granted based on marks of Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics and this scheme is producing good engineers. I don't think adding a compulsory English paper will improve quality of engineers. It will degrade quality of engineers because people knowing good English and bad knowledge of science will get higher ranking if English is made a compulsory part of exam and marks are counted in merit.  

Arvind Kejriwal and his fight for freedom of expression

Above is screen shot of Aam Admi Party website where my comments were removed and I was blocked from posting comments. Why in world only Kejriwal should have freedom of expression? Why other people in world should also not have freedom of expression?

Arvind Kejriwal went to jail to protect his so called freedom of expression and after spending 2 days in jail he paid the money and got himself bailed out with power of money. He initially claimed that he is fighting for right of poor people who could not pay for bail amount and will not pay for bail amount even if he had to spend his whole life in jail. But two days in jail changed his stand and paid the bail amount.

Today he is calling people on their cell phone through IVRS and telling them that he went to jail to protect right of freedom of people. But on his site he is curbing people's freedom of expression by removing their comment and blocking people from commenting against Kejriwal. If this person become CM again (which he never can do) he would put people in jail for speaking against him.

Kejriwal believe that he is above law and whatever he do is right and what other do is wrong. He thinks he is above parliament, he is above judiciary, he is above law, and he is above everything. He don't have any respect for voters, he think that it is duty of voter to vote for him and people who don't vote for him don't deserve voting right. There is no internal democracy in Aam Admi Party. Whoever dares to defer with Kejriwal is thrown out of party.

Aam Admi Party is a money based organization Kejriwal is richest with support of Ford Foundation USA. The money which is spent in campaigning is not received from people donation but from big businessman outside India.

AAP spent 30 crore for 4 seats, most expensive campaigning ever. BJP spent 300 crore for 300 seats, BJP spent less amount per seat. If people did not give their vote to AAP then why do you think they will give their money to AAP? It is a lie that AAP is running on people money. If you go by simple mathematics then if a 4 seat party can get 30 crore from public then a 300 seat party can get 2000 crore from public. Simple mathematics.   

Aam Adami Party attacks BJP Office in Delhi

Yesterday a gang of Aam Adami Party supporters lead by one of senior leader who is an Ex-Journalist pleated stones at BJP Office. They were latter beaten up by Police and BJP Workers. Aam Adami Party is projecting on their Website that their workers were beaten by BJP and Police. But we need to look at who started it. BJP Workers acted in their self-defense when they were attacked by AAP mob led by a senior AAP leader (Ashutosh).

Kejriwal have apologized for violence but have not apologized for protesting at BJP Office. If someone comes to your office shouting abuses at you how will you react? This kind of protest will surely lead to violence.  Around a month back few workers of Hindu Raksha Dal protested at AAP office against remark of AAP leader Prashant Bhushan. That time AAP was crying that it is not way to protest if Hindu Raksha Dal have any grievances they should protest at Jantar Mantar and not protest at AAP office in Ghaziabad.

Now why same logic does not apply to AAP? Why did they not protest at Jantar Mantar? Moreover they were pleating stones at BJP and not protesting. Kejriwal is not sorry for violence and using it as a tool for gaining sympathy. On his website he is showing face of a AAP supporter who was hit in lathi charge by police who was trying to protect BJP worker from AAP supporters. Is it the way of saying sorry? Surely it is not.  

Arvind Kejriwal think that he alone is honest

Now Kejriwal is saying that 69 MLAs elected by people are corrupt and on CM(himself) is honest. So no money should be given to MLAs for doing development and an all money should lie with CM so corruption will reduce because now there will be only one person eating money.

He alone will be deciding which Mohalah Sabha gets how much money and he can favor his favorites (people giving more donations to AAP). He wants to make MLAs incapable of doing development work for people and want every power to rest with him. He thinks everyone except him is incapable. This is very dangerous trend in Indian politics which must be stopped. For democracy to work power should lie with elected representative of people rather than with people becoming CM based on alliance formed against will of the people. 

Arvind Kejriwal is threatening Indian democracy

Arvind Kejriwal is threatening Indian democracy by saying that he will disrupt Republic day parade with support of his one lakh goons if his demands are not met. Do we allow anyone who has got one lakh goons to hold nation to ransom? Kejriwal claims that only his goons have right to have opinion and nobody else can have an opinion. In Delhi poll 20 Lakh votes were casted in favor of AAP and 40 Lakh votes were casted against AAP. How come 20 Lakh people are right and 40 Lakh people are wrong as per democracy?

Review of Aam Admi Party's Government

Today I am writing review of Arvind Kejriwal's government in Delhi. Two major decisions he made are not only illogical but illegal also.

1.    First decision is to make 20,000 liter of water free and make person using 20,001 liter to pay for full 20,001 liter. With this decision he is making a person pay for 20,000 liter for consuming 1 liter water because of thrust due to extreme summer of Delhi. Moreover people whose normal consumption is below 20,000 liter will be motivated to waste water. Previous system of charging for water based on consumption right from starting was much better, in that system no one was given undue advantage and no one was penalized for no fault of him. This decision have also increased corruption on the part of meter reader where meter reader can extort money by threatening to give meter reading above 20,000 when meter reading was 19,990 liter. 

2.    Second decision is to reduce electricity charges by 50% upto 400 units and making person pay 100% on these 400 units also if he consumes 401 units. This will increase corruption at meter reader level.

Kejriwal is saying that he will control corruption of meter readers through Lokepal. Corruption can't be controlled by giving people opportunity to do corruption and after that creating a new department to police on him. There is a saying that everyone is corrupt and most corrupt is anti-corruption department. Creating an anti-corruption department does not solve problem of corruption but increases it and lion's share of corruption goes to Lokepal. The only way to remove corruption is by enforcing accountability and strongly dealing with complain of request not being resolved in time.

In contrast I will like to give example of another chief minister who reduced corruption of house tax inspector by empowering people and reducing opportunity for corruption. Earlier property tax on a property was assessed on the bases of value of property perceived by the tax inspector. This subjectivity of assessment was creating a opportunity for corruption and house tax inspectors were using it for extorting money from people. This money was later on extorted by anti-corruption department ( which will now be replaced with Lokpal ). What CM did was to create a category of localities and fix per squire meter rate of house tax. This helped in increasing reach to areas which were beyond reach because of limited workforce. More localities were added to house tax jurisdiction, people were happy to pay justified amount of house tax. The CM who did all this was Sheela Deekshit who is called most corrupt by Aam Admi Party. It is very difficult to prove anyone guilty or innocent in cases of corruption but at least looking at kind of decision Kejriwal and Sheela Deekshit took I will say that Sheela Dekshit's state of mind looks better than Kejriwal's.

As far as personal credibility of Kejriwal goes he is after money right from starting. He collected 90 Lakh rupee in name of Anna at the time of Lokepal movement and diverted all money to his NGO where he can eat all that money because there he is highest authority. This was the reason of rift between Kejriwal and Anna. People thought that Anna had taken their money but in reality Anna got nothing. Kejriwal was paid very high price for campaigning for BJP in GOA and for doing that he did not even remember his duty to cast his vote before going to campaign to urge people to vote for right candidate. He thought that it is below his dignity to stand in line with ordinary people to vote because his job is to tell people whom to vote for and whom not to vote for. When media created a big issue out of it and Kejriwal got a phone call from GOA saying that he will not be paid if he comes without casting his vote, he remembered his duty to cast his vote and returned from Airport to cast his vote to find that his name was not on the voter list. Election commission issues voter list 4 months in advance for review and to file any objections or claim. Why did he not review voter list and filed his claim?
