Welcome to the Indian west..... the glitzy land of Gorillas. The land of jarring remixes, larger-than-life stars and cliched movies.

Let me give you three reasons why Indian Cinema is going to the dogs.

1. Its got schmucks called Stars.

2. Any kind of noise is majorly called Music.

3. Ram Gopal Varma and the others.

You know a country is sure heading to the gallows when the news of an aged Bazouk superstar getting an Honorary Degree overshadows that of a hardworking uncommon Scientist recieving the same award. Thats it, ladies and gentlemen.... the world of demi-gods, crooners and glamourous copycats....Bollywood.

The term Bollywood itself is a sad relevation of the state of the Indian Mind today. Hell, which other country has stooped so low so as to name its Movie Industry in sync and rhyme with the American Film Industry of Hollywood??!!

And to think of the country's plight....when the local ones follow suit....naming themselves Kollywood (Kodamakkam) and Tollywood (Telugu) !!!

<# Shit's hit the fan,,yo! #>

India can never hope to achieve the status of a Superpower, not as long as the general public worship the Star Avatars. Heck, people don't care about our citizens being killed in the North-East, but they perform poojas and lay garlands when an actor falls ill. Truly, I feel ashamed to live in the midst of such a population, I can tell you. If Abdul Kalam hadn't contested for the Presidential Elections, children would still be watching schmucks wriggling their fingers and singing duets in a movie hall.

I am not totally against cinema, people.....i appreciate good cinema.... cinema that makes you lean back and think. Cinema that contributes something to the society. Indian cinema is not devoid of these movies either.....there have been movies like Rang De Basanti, Yuva and Black which shine with an aura of their own in a crowd. But these movies are of the one-in-a-million category.

This sad state is due to the lack of good directors, who can think of good subjects and themes. Making commercial movies is not a sin, as even film-makers need their daily bread. But there should be an underlying meaning in all the din created. Why do we lack movies like V For Vendetta in a country that surely needs movies of such type.....what with its dim-witted politicians and degrading values?

I'd like to thank the likes of Sanjay Gupta, Ram Gopal Varma and other big-shot directors here.
" Thank you all for ur struggle of upholding Indian Cinema to International standards, but we don't need you anymore. You can take a break, Sanjay, there are hordes of movies which you haven't copied frame-by-frame yet, and we're really in no hurry to see them. You too, Mr. Varma, enough of ur once-upon-a-time-there-was-a-gangster bullshit. Honestly, Coppola should be feeling like shit right now....wondering why on earth he made 'The Godfather' after watching the Indianised versions. Mahesh Bhatt needs a movie as an excuse to let out his carnal desires.... who needs sex-education when his movies are being released every week? Also, all the Johars and Chopras.... we youngsters lost our appetite for Love and Families after watching your respective movies."

Also, a few aged actors should seriously consider retirement as an option.....c'mon guys, it gets you once in a while when you see toothless bozos flirting with young women...!

And to the Indian public: listen up, people.... actors aren't immortal. Period. You can't just burn buses, trash the roads and raise havoc when they die. And stop bursting crackers, throwing bashes and decorating their cut-outs with garlands. They are mortals who live on your money.....the day you start shunning bad movies, encouraging the fine arts and evolving into a mature and literate group....you'll be bigger than them.

Larger than life, I can assure you.

This is me, signing off.
