Rebirth of India: Superior

After reading the script carefully, Rajkumar said cautiously: "Um, respected Mr. Pandit..."

Before he finished speaking, Shakru interrupted: "There is no need to talk so much in the company, you can just call me boss, and you are an expert in filming movies, so feel free to ask any questions."

Hearing Shakru's words, Rajkumar calmed down a little and said: "Boss, the script you chose is really good. You don't need to look at the content. Just based on this name and the reputation of Puran Devi, the box office of this movie is enough to guarantee, and I believe that the revenue in the overseas market will definitely be higher than that in the domestic market, but there is a problem that is difficult to solve."

Shakru said nonchalantly: "Are you also worried about not being able to pass the review? It's okay, at most Just show it abroad first. "

Rakuma shook his head and said, "No, boss, I'm not worried about censorship, I'm worried about the actors."

Shakru asked in surprise, "Actors? What's wrong with the actors? Our play doesn't need big-name actors. Puran Devi is a Dalit, so we can just find a Dalit actress with good acting skills. Is it difficult to find one?"

"Boss, since you also know the caste restoration system, it will be easy. In fact, I'm not worried about the leading actors. I have several actresses with good acting skills who are not restricted by caste or appearance. I'm worried about the supporting roles. Although they don't have many scenes, these roles are indispensable, but the problem is that such actors can't be found at all." Rajkuma explained with a frown.

"Which supporting roles are so troublesome?"

"It's the twenty or so high-caste dead killed by Puran Devi."

When Rajkuma said this, Shakru immediately understood what he meant. In India, even filming is affected by the caste system. Simply put, it is a caste reduction system, which means that you can only play the role of a caste if you are an actor of a certain caste. For example, if you are a Kshatriya, you cannot play the role of a Brahmin.

In general movies, even if a high-caste character is a bad guy, it is a very glorious bad guy. However, in this play, there are more than 20 high-caste dead people, and they have to be killed by Dalits in a very humiliating way. Such roles are definitely not willing to be played by high-caste actors, no matter how much money you pay them.

Although the roles of these characters are not important, they are indispensable. Without their bullying and insults, it is impossible to reflect the oppression suffered by Puran Devi, and it is impossible to give the audience a sense of release when killing them. According to the wireless network article, these characters are the objects of face-slapping and are absolutely indispensable.

Fortunately, there is a workaround in the Indian film industry, so Shakru said: "Well, can't we find actors for these roles?" Many actors in the Indian entertainment industry are, and even many of them are from film families. This is because of inheritance, and secondly, actors are not restricted by the caste restoration system in terms of roles and can play any role, so this is a very common workaround.

Rajkumar shook his head and said, "I think it's difficult. After all, Puran Devi is a Dalit. Even the best actors may not agree to it."

Shakru was also worried and said, "What should we do?"

Rakumar thought for a while, and then said, "Boss, you have connections abroad. If it doesn't work, you can hire a few actors abroad. In addition, I will ask the best actors to see if they agree to act in the film if I pay a high price."

Shakru sighed and said, "Well, that's the only way. But the supporting roles can be dealt with. The leading actors must have good acting skills. This is the first work of our company. We must shoot it well."

Rakumar nodded and said, "Boss, don't worry, I will definitely do a good job! But can I form a film crew myself? I have a few old friends. Although they are not famous, they are all old. We have always cooperated well, so I want to invite them all over. "

Shakru waved his hand and said: "I will not interfere with you in this regard. You will be in charge of the entire director and actor group. If the show performs well, I will sign them all and guarantee that the salary will satisfy you. But if the performance does not satisfy me or I find that there is a phenomenon of shoddy performance, then don't blame me for being ruthless. "

Rakuma responded repeatedly: "Don't worry, don't worry, I will strictly control it, there will be no shoddy performance, and I will do my best to make this show well. "

Shakru believed that what Rajkumar said was the truth, because this opportunity was too rare for him. If he messed up the movie this time for the sake of small profits, then no one would invest in movies in the future.

It turned out that the people Rajkuma had found were quite capable, and there was even a cameraman who helped Rajkuma and Shakru solve the most troublesome problem for them, which was the actors of the high-caste dead. He directly hired several *** actors from neighboring Pakistan, and Shakru was very satisfied with their performance.

After this problem was solved, the entire crew's preparatory work was on track. Just when Shakru thought that there would be no more obstacles to filming, Rajkuma brought another bad news: "Boss, we have encountered a very difficult problem now. No village nearby is willing to cooperate with us in filming this movie."

Shakru said: "Why don't you cooperate? Is the venue fee we gave too little?"

Rakumar shook his head and said, "Boss, it's not about the location fee, but because the film we are making is to promote Puran Devi, so those landlords are determined not to praise the untouchables who dare to kill high-caste people in their land."

Since India has never carried out a land revolution, more than 80% of the rural land belongs to the local high-caste landlords. As the saying goes, when a rabbit dies, a fox mourns, and when animals mourn their own kind, in order to maintain their privileges and status, these people will naturally not tolerate the emergence of apostates like Puran Devi, and will not help to promote her deeds, so it is inevitable to encounter this phenomenon when selecting locations.

Although he was very depressed about this situation, Shakru also understood the choice of these landlords. If he were in the position of those landlords, he would not agree, so he had to say depressedly: "Well, Rajkumar, you shoot other parts first, and I will think of a way to solve the problem of the location."
