UNIQUE INDIAN LIVING

UNIQUE INDIAN LIVING

INDIA is unique in many ways such as social,demographic and geographical ways but i would like to specify a unique behaviour pattern among all Indians.I think i should come up with a word to present it in a significant way. 'Adjustification' will be an apt word to describe the unique behaviour of Indians. You would have partially understood about the topic of discussion by seeing the word itself. For those who doesn't understand the meaning of it and have not experienced this special behaviour, let me explain it to you. Adjustification refers to the improvised version of doing a regular thing. For example, a public transport bus stops on the places which is pre-arranged or prescribed as bus stops, that is a regular thing. In the improvised version or adjustified version of this regular activity, bus stops infront of houses,shopes and junctions for certain passengers to get in or get out of the bus according to their convenience. These passengers may be close friends or relatives of the driver or labour of the bus and they may also be regular passengers in the same bus. This example is taken from the Indian state of Kerala where houses and shopes are made very near to the national highways due to the shortage of land. Anyway the result of this behaviour of the people and bus staff,people suffered are those who are on backside of the bus because as they will be thinking that bus will not stop at any other place other than bus stops. According to that norm people will speed up their vehicle behind the bus and when bus suddenly stop infront of some house, accident happens. As i told about behaviour of Indian people, let me remind you about the rush in the railway stations in Mumbai,crowd in the theatres and stadiums all over India,the shortcut routes adopted by people to move up the ques in ration stores and bill payment centres. Adjustification also explain the 'it's ok' attitude of the people who suffers with all the 'adjustments' done by other people for their 'easy life'. Reasons for this tendency to suffer may be the simple fact that every people does this shortcut ways and they can't blame any one for it. Co-operative mentality of people comes in the way of protesting against these unusual activities and in today's world,each one of these unusual things have become usual things or part of daytoday life and the difference of Indian living circumstances with other living places in the world.

FROM AUDIENCE

FROM AUDIENCE

A film is a successful film, when the audience correlate to the actors to the extent that audience will start to think that the incidents in the film had happened in their life.The film will require factors like a real life story, relative emotions,supportive songs and action and most importantly narration style.Audience are on the theater for entertainment and a little thought that could enable them to forget every other things in their life.Traditionally film makers have tried different type of ways to get into the minds of audience.Humor,fear,romantic,suspense and action are the most important type of mediums that is used by film makers.Mix of all these factors can be also seen in many films.In my opinion, nobody can creatively present a movie of one type that is either full comedy or full action based. Film story chooses the theme for its different scenes. no script writer can write a story for action or humor.The importance of a single line thought or situation or scene came on this crucial juncture.This fact is evident in the world famous movies like Titanic where the couples standing in the dock of the ship with their hands spread like wings symbolizes the whole story of Titanic film.A small symbol like a scene become the link which connects the whole story. In the initial stages of script preparation, an idea should be accompanied by a message which the maker intend to present before the audience.When a script writer have an idea and a message,he should have a narrative style which is simple, direct and consistent.Even if a script writer have an excellent idea and message, the film can fall short of being a successful film because of the inability to narrate the story or present the story in a way in which audience is involved in every second of the film.Audience become accurate astrologers in the theater by predicting the twists and turns of the film story because they have been experiencing the twists and turns of the film stories for so many years.When audience experience the first 10 minutes of the film in the theater,they just make a story of their own in their minds with the experience of seeing the previous films and assume that this film is going this way only.The challenge for a good script writer and director is to break the flow of thought process in the mind of the viewer from the first scene of the film itself and maintain the process of unexpected twists in the film and surprise the viewer.If the audience is allowed to guess the whole story from the beginning, then they will loose the interest in the movie after the interval and review of the film will be badly affected.These are my own thoughts which i have experienced with my recent view of a film.I hope makers of films take notice of these things and improve Films.
