Time for a rumination

We live in a world where we have to face contradiction from everyone right from the day we were born. Every one of us have a different perspective to look at things that we built up in the due course of time depending on the various scenarios we encountered since puerility which makes the world apart. Attempting to bring such a world in unison is the silliest mistake a person does in his/her entire life because just like no to persons are born alike no two great minds think alike. Being said that if someone asks you what you can do to the person right next to you for living in the same planet as you do, you just simply can say that I don’t want to mess around with one’s head given the range of problems that one already had and my limited exposure on one’s life. Every sane person on this lost world knows for sure that the misery arising out of one’s own life can and will only be solved by the person himself if nobody plays god or superior. It was just a matter of time for a person to figure out the appropriate tangible solution for a problem with a gentle peace of mind.

PK is a docile film with a seemingly acceptable plot point a talented star cast a large canvas and a good heart (Only ostensible) but none of them comes under the category of reality. Amir Khan is a versatile actor among his contemporaries and I liked him watching on screen for the actor he was and the charisma he has. When people try to entertain me I accept it cause it takes me away from reality and when the same people start preaching messages about trust, life, love, faith, Philanthropy etc., I am not a very good listener for various reasons. It also comes as a surprise to anyone who watched this film since its self-referential speaking about the wrong numbers that were mentioned in the film.Well how can I be sure that this film is not one of them? No right? Hence I don’t want to talk about them. The oldest and lamest excuse one shows to find out a wrong number is asking the wrong number to remove poverty in the continent which is impossible even for a few hundred right numbers put together as a team, come on aren't we the one in the new millennium that crossed the planets with a moderate budget.

One can confidently say that this film will garner huge audience for the kind of wrong number it is and the promising false hope it gives to the not so demanding movie goer. Am I jealous or am I over analyzing things that are supposed to be left alone, may be or may be not but the thing is I believe in a motto called don’t give advice when you are not asked for and don’t mess around when there is nobody to guide. The story is quite simple as long as you stop asking about logic and the extreme cinematic liberties that the makers had taken. It was a make believe tale where you are left with a gullible alien protagonist who searches for a way back home only to be deceived by the managers of god. If I were to be in that position I would have immediately searched my remote using the powers I had left the god forsaken planet although it’s not appreciated sometimes it happens to be reasonable answer because right from the beginning it’s never my battle making me a busy body.

Talking about the similarities in the film I can correlate the subject under discussion as a modern day retelling of “Barrister Parvatheesam” a light hearted novel by Mokkapati Narasimha Sastry. Although both of them are not aborigines one can sense the similarities in the characterization of PK and BP. Technically speaking there is nothing a film can offer for the impending, persisting and overbearing problems that exist in the real time environment which is the reason why it’s called fiction with a disclaimer of course. When we attain a benchmark in our respective field we feel a sense of pride in us which wrongly puts us in a state of superiority. Is the effort towards PK sincere? Well it’s the actual intention of the movie makers that decides. What we are trying to perceive and what it is that we really need in our lives. Is it someone to say that we are wrong so as to worship him as our hero? All our lives we have been waiting for miracles to happen knowing ignoring the fact about the miracles a mind can create. Finally the one and only wrong number that you are going to get is the person right next to you. Thank you one and all.
