Rebirth of India: Superior
Text Chapter 176 Earthquake
Although Shakru's engagement ceremony was very low-key, it still attracted a lot of attention. On the one hand, as the boss of a film and television company, he is half an entertainment industry person, so he will naturally be noticed by the media; on the other hand, it was because of his movie "The Heart of the Woman". A person who advocates free love ended up getting engaged according to traditional etiquette. How could this not be criticized? ♦Not only that, the film that Rajkumar told him before specifically for "The Heart of the Woman" has officially begun shooting, and two of them have been released at once.
One is called "Wedding", which tells the story of a man and a woman who get married under the arrangement of their parents. At the end, the heroine is accidentally disfigured, and the hero resolutely marries her and fulfills his promise to take care of her for life. This reflects the traditional beauty of arranged marriages. Although arranged marriages do not have a romantic love process, they can still be together forever. It can be said that the film shows the advantages of keeping promises in arranged marriages to a great extent, which is precisely the weakness of free love. There is no doubt that this film will definitely be welcomed by conservative people in Indian society.
Moreover, the traditions promoted in the film are not immutable. The film "Wedding" shows the reformed arranged marriage. Before entering the marriage, the man and woman, accompanied by their parents, had three friendly meetings. During the meetings, they deepened their understanding of each other through chatting. This is different from the tradition of being strangers before marriage. In addition to promoting the advantages of arranged marriage, the film also tries to show the world that tradition can keep pace with the times, so there is no need to completely subvert it.
Compared with the reformed arranged marriage, another film called "Love, Start Over Again" explores the inherent relationship between free love and arranged marriage in more detail. The man and woman in the story each experienced a memorable free love. However, the relationship eventually failed to come to fruition due to various reasons, so the two had no choice but to accept the arranged marriage and came together. From the initial misunderstanding and resistance to the final touching and love. This story not only shows the unparalleled romantic temperament of free love. It also praises the traditional advantages of arranged marriages as a reliable insurance. Most importantly, it provides young people with an open mind for marriage. Love is definitely not obtained in only one way. As long as you are willing to open your mind, let go of past relationships, and abandon your prejudice against arranged marriages, happiness is not far away from you.
The two ultimately unsuccessful relationships in "Love Starts Over" are somewhat dramatic, but most Indians do enter arranged marriages with a longing for free love. For them, this film has a great guiding significance: since you have accepted arranged marriages, you should manage them well, and you can also get beautiful feelings. Don't linger on the colorful emotional world outside. Those feelings may not lead you into marriage. There are too many variables. You actually miss only a few relationships. You didn't miss the ultimate happiness. Compared with the previous two films, one praises free love and the other praises arranged marriage. This film seems more rational and more in line with real life.
For the counterattacks of these two movies, Shakru felt that the best way was to ignore them, otherwise it would be like using his "Win the Heart" to hype up the other party's box office. However, he did not do nothing, but made up for the loss inside the embankment. He tried to gain fame for himself in other aspects.
So on Dussehra (a traditional Hindu festival that originated from the worship of the river goddess), Shakru announced his latest divination results in the sacrifice of Belur Temple - a tragic earthquake will occur in the western state of India around Dussehra this year, and the number of casualties will far exceed the previous temple dispute.
What Shakru said was actually the 6.3-magnitude earthquake that occurred in Maharashtra on September 30, 1993. Although the magnitude was not large, the casualties were huge. 73 villages near the epicenter of Latur were all destroyed, and more than 20,000 people died, making it the most serious earthquake in India this century.
In fact, when Mukesh and others urged him to do divination at the engagement ceremony, he wanted to talk about this tragedy, but considering that it seemed unlucky to talk about such a thing on his wedding day, he suppressed it.
There are many people who believe in Shakru's divination now, but these people are basically concentrated in the north. Shakru's reputation in western India is not big enough, and his divination is too vague. The time is unclear (the date of Dussehra is not fixed, it can be held in September or October.), and the location is also unclear (the area in western India is large), so it has not attracted enough attention.
Shakru can only sigh and be helpless about this. The only thing he can do is to try to restrain the people around him from going to western India in recent months. In fact, he remembers that the epicenter was Latur in Maharashtra, and the specific time was the early morning of September 30, but he dare not say it. After all, if he says it too detailed, he may be regarded as a monster. This vagueness is the best effect.
Even so, Mukesh joked with him: "Little Shakru, I find you are simply a disaster star. You only report bad news but not good news. Why don't I see any good news from your divination?"
Shakru replied helplessly: "What can I do about this? You know my divination skills. What I can predict depends entirely on God's will." At this point, he suddenly remembered something and said to Mukesh: "By the way, don't say there is no good news. I predicted that your brother Mukesh will become the richest man in India in the future!"
"Don't tease me. I'm not sure if I can inherit my family's Reliance Group in the future, and I'm the richest man in India?" Mukesh said indifferently.
Shakru said very seriously: "Don't disbelieve it, this is definitely true. Not only is the Reliance Group yours, but you will also be the richest man in India. However, you have to wait for a few years, um, about ten years later!"
Mukesh said speechlessly: "You used such an ancient trick to fool me, and you pushed me to ten years later. Isn't this a common trick used by those scammers!"
"Why should I lie to you? I won't get any benefits. I really hope that you can become the richest man in India, and then I will follow you to get some benefits!"
"Well, I'll borrow your good words. If I become the richest man in India, I will agree to one condition of yours!"
"Okay, I don't want anything else, just a house you don't want in the future!"
