Rebirth of India: Superior

Text Chapter 168 Love Rival

In Shakru's memory, the movie "Win the Heart" immediately aroused widespread attention as soon as it was released. The box office went straight to the first place that year, and it lasted for fifteen years after its release, making it a record in the box office history of India. It's a miracle, but although the quality of Shakru's "Win the Heart" this time is almost exactly the same as the original film, and it also achieved very good box office, it brought some unexpected problems to Shakru. `

For example, the newspaper in Shakru's hands publicly claimed that the film censorship department should ban the release of "Win the Heart" because such a film would destroy the traditional marriage system in India. It also called on all fathers to ban their daughters. Go see this movie. Shakru smiled bitterly and said to Rajkumar: "I really don't understand that such a love movie can actually cause such a big stir. It seems that "Bandit Queen" didn't do this at the beginning, right?"

Rajkumar thought for a while and explained: "Boss, the story of "Bandit Queen" is far away from ordinary people's lives after all, and the story of Purandevi has been widely circulated before the movie, so it is not accepted by everyone. So difficult. But "Win the Heart" is different. Marriage is for everyone and every family. It is something that everyone must experience and face, and the traditional system in our country is arranged marriage, so it is natural to have resistance to this kind of movie that promotes free love, especially those who are fathers and parents. If their daughters or granddaughters are If it’s like Kajol in the film review, then where is their authority?”

"But in my impression, many Bollywood movies are stories about rich girls marrying poor boys?" Shakru asked still puzzled.

"But those were all ancient stories, and our "Win the Heart" is a modern film, and maybe we filmed it too realistically, so it is easy for people to feel immersed in it, not just our target market The young girls stepped in. Even their parents stepped in, and it became what it is now.

And if you don’t know, it is said that a film company is planning to make a movie promoting arranged marriage in order to compete with "Win the Heart", and it has already started preparing the script. "Rakumar said very depressed.

"What? No way!" This news completely shocked Shakru, in his mind. As soon as "Win the Heart" was released, it received rave reviews and created a miracle in Indian movies. It seems that I have never heard of such twists and turns.

In fact, it happened because Shakru made a small mistake. Historically, "Win the Heart" was released in 1995. India carried out economic reforms similar to China's reform and opening up in 1992. After three years of reforms, in addition to making great economic achievements, it also brought It is due to the opening of ideas and culture that more young people are beginning to pursue free love and Western lifestyles. `Including film music and other forms of foreign culture. "Win the Heart" was filmed at the early stage of this reform trend, so it was easier for everyone to accept it.

However, Shakru's version of "Win the Heart" was screened in 1993. At this time, the economic reform had just started less than a year ago, and the effect had not yet been exerted. Naturally, it was impossible to trigger people's ideological and cultural openness. Therefore, It is natural to encounter resistance. (I personally despise those entertainment articles that copy books, songs, and movies without taking into account the background of the times and the humanistic environment. A song, a movie, or a book can become popular because it has a certain historical background and humanities. Environmentally speaking, it’s not realistic to say that a good movie will become popular whenever it is released.)

As the saying goes, "Good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes alone." The things that made Shaklu depressed didn't stop there. At this time, old Patela called: "Little Shakru, you said it's not good for you to make some movies. Why do you have to make the kind of movies that encourage free love?"

Hearing these words, Shakru almost vomited blood: "Grandpa Patela, why are you also opposing my film!"

Old Patela replied angrily: "If I don't object, even your wife will be snatched away! To tell you the truth. Now there is a nouveau riche in the United States who is chasing Amisa, and now he is chasing her. Coming to India, the day after tomorrow He will also come to Amisa's birthday party. You said, if Amisa had listened to me honestly, would this kind of thing have happened? But it doesn't mean that you are still filming this kind of film. Are you causing trouble for yourself?"

At first, Shakru wanted to argue with old Patela that he and Amisa were just good friends. However, after hearing that someone was chasing Amisa, even to India, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. In fact, He had long since determined in his heart that Amisa was the most suitable candidate for his future wife, but firstly, he was still playful, and secondly, I thought that I was not too old now, and Amisha was studying in the United States, and the two of them had been together less and more apart, so I never brought this matter to light. However, after learning about this matter, Shakru suddenly panicked and asked, "Grandpa Patela, are you telling the truth? Are you kidding me?"

Old Patela said anxiously: "Can I just joke with you about this kind of thing? But don't worry, I firmly disagree with this matter. Don't say that I have already recognized you as my grandson-in-law, even without you , I will never agree to Amisa marrying a Dalit!”

"You said the one pursuing Amisa is a Dalit?" This answer shocked Shakru. What a joke, a Dalit boy dared to pursue a Brahmin girl? Is he crazy? No matter how you look at it, this is absolutely impossible.

"Humph, he is just a little Dalit who grew up in the United States. He has never been to India and doesn't know the depths of the world. His father went to the United States and made some money. But nouveau riche is nouveau riche, and inferior people are inferior people. He wants to marry my precious granddaughter, so he can only dream about it!" said old Patera angrily.

After hearing the explanation from old Patera, Shakru roughly understood what was going on. It should be that this young man grew up in the United States, so he was not very clear about the harsh caste system in India and the gap between high and low castes. In addition, he had a little bit of American romanticism and adventurous spirit (actually, he was just foolish and bold, living on "luck"), so he pursued the beautiful and smart Amisa at all costs. However, his ending was almost foreseeable, and he would definitely die ugly!

ps: Book friends in the group said that the recent chapters did not reflect the feeling of "superiority", which was a bit off topic, so please take a look at whether this plot I designed reflects the taste of "superiority"!
