Shivaji




I saw the most hyped movie in the country Shivaji- The boss. Various reasons as to why the movie is hyped-- Apart from its budget, its the actor, Superstar (that’s how he is called) Rajnikant who has been the cause of the hype. His fan following is more than any star in any field in the world. I was excited, booked tickets two weeks in advance. It was July 4- American Independence day and I was celebrating by watching Shivaji- The boss 

The movie went on well, at the end of it my friends who Had watched the movie twice and thrice curiously asked me- " how was it " and i said the most unexpected think- " it was OK, I think it’s a waste of lot of money if the dreams in the movie aren't realized by us ". Oh! What looks I had got- if looks could kill, I would have been dead by now.

That’s when I realized, it’s just a movie and each one of us has a different perspective to it. Something its worth watching a ten times and something " wow at 65 also he looks , so cool "and  a few odd ones like me think " there is a hidden message in the movie "

That night as i was lying down and saying my  prayers, a few realizations, a few questions hit me.

We respect perspectives ( at least try to ) which people have for  movie, then how come we don't respect people's perspective about life and are always judging their lives and talking about their rights and wrongs.

I understand like the movie our lives can  also be hyped, not for the money we have or the stories we right, but for what we are- The Super Star- The boss of our lives.

I know, its just a movie, but if a movie shows dreams realized, good heartiness and right doing then can't we also be a movie for somebody, working towards realizing our dreams and continuing to be good hearted and living right.

Three and half hours and we have a hangover of three days or 10 watches of the movie. Can't 30-40 years of our lives be such that somebody wants to relive or emulate us...
A movie does wonders to us, let our lives do wonders to this world. got to go, have to do my wonders in the world and be a Super Star of my life
