India is , was and always will be a great country. But whatever bad has happened or is happening in India, is because we all keep fighting. Trust me all Indians are talented and better than many in other countries. Our infighting is other's strength. We are divided on Hindu Muslim, North and South. Cant we learn from the culture and intelligence of south India? Can't we learn the great cuisines and admire the scenic Himalayan beauties of North? Cant we all be a garland in Mother India's neck, where each flower from each state and region adds to the beauty. Please unite before the world makes us slaves again.

Nice sentiments, utopian society is not practicable or desirable, certain amount of friction is required to savour life!!Egos cannot be demolished, pride in our posession & place of birth ( Even though it is not, out of choice, one is born in South or North India)is due to shear Ignorance, Masalas are require to add spice to our ignorant way of daily life...
she looks so unnatural. Always touching her hair. thts shows her hair extensions make her uncomfortable. She always shows how happy she is. If u r really happy ash why do u show it off.Stop oversacting.
The music is too loud and scary. not at all looking fwd to watch this movie..looks scary..abhishek & ash both looks to have done overacting. As it is life is full of complications who wants another stressful 3 hrs.
I want to know what is so special abt Amitabh, Abhishek and Aishwarya that irrespective of their box office performance or acting skills, they keep acting in movies and producers are willing to produce their movies.....Where all this money is coming from.... I adore the strength of Amitabh as he has come through struggles esp in 80s and 90s but of late I find his attitude as....act in any movie, save and promote his family as much as possible.... Ash was beautiful..period...now there are so many others who are as beautiful if not more that her....the less said the better abt her acting skills.....Abhishek...He can excel in movies of RGV, Mani, Ashutosh, Sanjay Leela as like Ash....for that matter these directors are so talented that even you and me can be made to act well in their movies.............. So my question to all their fans is....What is that you like in them so much ...... Will help some puzzle folks like me understand

You have answered everything my friend.
The never say die attitude of the greatest actor of the millenium.
Abhishek, has also given his share of good performances, albeit with good directors.....so good directors are confident that they can make him act.
Don't forget the fact that they are the first family of Indian cinema, so it is but obvious that producers and directors flock their home on a daily basis.

And what attitude are you talking about.... Did he or the so called family a. Produce good cinema or cinema at all b. Direct any good movies c. Bring in new talent to the industry d. Bring in any positive change in their industry thro their popularity.... e. Are they pioneers of anything innovative in cinema.... f. Setting standards in acting

We Indians cannot be expected to give rational answeres. I wonder why you so perturbed by somoone calling AB & Co the first family when the country has been under the " supposedly secular " dynastic rule of the Gandhi family for ages !! Cinema is just entertainment and it relly does not matter calling AB the first family as forget about Jaya, Abhi & Ash, just AB alone can be credited for entertaining millions during his time.

I presume you understand the concept of FIRST FAMILY.
the answers are as follows:
a) If you feel he and his family did not produce any good cinema then you are thoroughly biased to the core
b) Direction might not have happened, but that does not take away the fact that he is/was and will always be the biggest face of Indian cinema, hence the FIRST MAN of Indian cinema, and hence his family being the first family.
c) he has brought new talent to the industry in a very short span, read Chandrachur Singh, Arshad Warsi, Priya Gill and Simran.
d) He has brought positive change in the country by his propaganda of Pulse polio, and many such campaigns
e) He is the only person in the Indian film industry who had on many occasions multiple films running for golden jubilee.....simultaneously
f) As far as setting standard in acting is concerned, I need not say anything, the whole world will say that for me.

On the the answer for C...u have a sense of humour.... Btw...please read my questions correctly and answer with facts
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Can the Fans of Bachchans explain this
by Opinionated Man on Apr 27, 2010 02:48 PM
I have answered with facts, it is sad that you have closed your eyes to facts.
You might not like Chandrachur or Arshad, but I really like them and they are clearly good actors....

Mani is trying to mock Ramayan by telling that Sita falls in love with Ravan!! That is exactly what is trying to convey through this film as this is the propaganda of Dravidian people!!!

so, at least he had faith in his wife and not make her walk in the fire....
Firs of all, how many hindi-speaking people speak hindi, most of them talk in english? Second the statement that hindi guys keep on talking in hindi with non-hindi in their group, I cant take this statement, its not true,rather its other way around.BTW, I watch anniyan,ghajini, chandramukhi, and also another one starring Madhavan,Jyothika and another lady in theater without subtitles, would you beleive it? I never find any north indian insulting or being rude to any non-hindi guy. If you say calling Madrasi, I think its a hostel term and nobody outside uses it, but when people are looking for faults they will find even calling brother as bhaiya,,,
Hey guys all ae trying to downplay Mani, Abhi , north indians , south Indians, SRK,.... for no reason.. why this infighting??
WHEN WILL WE BECOME INDIANS ..? rather then north Indian, east Indians or south Indian or Marathi Manus.. ? Why can't we be fare and gennuine?
If Abhi has done gud work in Mvies like Yuva, guru, Dostana , Sarkar ... then he should be praised,...!! If SRK has done good work in Chak de, Baazigar...etc then e should be praised... !! If Mani has made gud movies then accept it..
Instead of being positve why are we gettng so negative for no reason?? We can't appreciate someones gud work.. and that too when they are Indians?

Dear Friend, We Indians fight very well in forum like no one ,but if anything happens in any part of Indian then you will understand Indians heart.Did you know how many south Indians cried and prayed for the Marathi's died in Mumbai terror attack? Do you know how many UPs,Punjabis cried and came to help South Indian's when Indian Tsunami attacked?..So dont keep any thing personal we will fight among themselves and we will unite within a second ...In families these types of issues exist..

I will agree with jack,its some very low grade elgilish speaking people at rediff forum that always talk about language, color and regionalism.Otherwise most of the people live as Indian, ofcourse its always a bot regionalism involved and that will happen among people in the same state with different cities..
