Critical Slap on our Poor Mentality

This is beautiful presentation on how we reach on moon on one hand and still have Kala bander Monkey in our minds. Superb critics on our life and beliefs! Bravo Rakesh for making this. Can't we come out of such bias and lead to real progress and improvement? Are politicians to be blamed or it is WE who elect them? (Or not elect?) "Jalebi" character and respect to "Shabri", role of "Gobar" and his view of accepting two coins and everything else was great. Music for two songs "masakali" and "sasural genda phool" is great. Good trendsetter film. Quality of recent movies have recently improved and appeal to heart or mind. Abhishek is improving a lot. Sonam looks fresh like the white pigeon !
