Satyagraha is a word inspired by Gandhi's movement of non-violence. As heavy as the word may be, Gandhi easily demonstrated how effective a tool it can be.
When it comes to cinema, its truth is equally divided in to three parts - story, acting and direction. What the movie lost out in story and direction, it made up for with acting. The movie's saving grace was Amitabh Bachchan, Manoj Bajpai and somehow managing to secure the third spot on this list, Ajay Devgn.
Despite most media reports, 'Satyagraha' is not a follow-up to the Ranbir Kapoor, Manoj Bajpai and Arjun Rampal starrer 'Rajneeti'.
The movie 'Satyagraha' covers hot-wire topics that have stirred the nation. It is undeniably a culmination of Anna Hazare's movement, the Jan Lokpal bill, Arvind Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party, engineer Satyendra Dubey's murder and Gandhi's last days on earth. Barring this, most other things - melodrama, love, item numbers and other 'thought-provoking' scenes according to Prakash Jha - seemed forced.
These points strip the movie of any value, and leave it looking neither realistic or entertaining.
What the viewer does manage to remember, though, is the fact that Prakash Jha is the same director to gave us 'Gangajal' and 'Apaharan', movies that were ripe with socio-political issues.
What the viewer is also left with, is episodes from a not-too-old past that managed to move an entire nation, of which some, sadly, were replaced soon with the worries of a daily routine.
Amitabh Bachchan plays the role of Dwarka Anand who blames the basic human flaw - greed - for corruption. Jha makes a clean case of corruption with this character. Dwarka Anand's son Nikhil Anand, after getting a degree, starts working for a highway construction company with all the honesty of a simple hard worker. On the other hand, his friend Manav Raghvendra (Ajay Devgn) is an owner of a telecommunication company in Delhi whose sole aim in life is to make it big. What happens with Nikhil is what happened in reality with engineer Satyendra Dubey, when he stands in the way of corrupt authorities and insists on building a secure highway.
Enter TV reporter Yashmeen Khan (Kareena) who's placed at this point in the movie after she carries out a sting operation on a power broker.
After the murder of his friend, Manav reaches Ambikapur. There the situation is ripe with need of a new people's leader and it so happens that Amitabh Bachchan's character becomes the face of a new movement, by finding himself in jail. What spurs the movement, is people's new found conviction to get him out of prison, no matter what.
Arjun Rampal plays the youth leader in the movie, with the same first name. Social media is also seen playing a role in the movie. In addition to Arjun's support for the movement, social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter are also used to spread the word of the movement. This episode continues well into the interval.
Cut to later. The stage is set. The air is packed with drama.
Enter Manoj Bajpai who plays the role Balram Singh, a corrupt minister. Suffice it to say, he falls into the role with great ease and manage to enthrall as always.
Amitabh gives new meaning to the words perseverance, courage and conviction, while Manoj as always gets beneath the skin of the character with great ease. Although Ajay Devgn's a great actor too, he failed to make an impression. And after watching Arjun Rampal in Rajneeti, one could spot great potential in him. It went to waste with his character in this movie.
Kareena Kapoor seemed to have been carried away by her role. She tolerated and delivered news with all the seriousness of an entertainer (and not that of a reporter). Amrita Rao's role isn't worth too much talk. As predicted, her performance was ho-hum.
The element that eventually works to hold the many aspects of a movie together, was missing. It was almost as if actor and screenwriter Anjum Rajabali was dealing with a certain sense of urgency while working and decided to add as much as possible in the 152 minutes that make up the film. This explains the flat response the film has generated from the audience till now.
Not only that, the movie is replete with the old tried-and-tested formulae - including item numbers - which also helps explains why the movie lost ground. Whether the movie will survive the weekend audience, is only a matter of time.
One of the most significant phenomena of our time has been the development of the cinema from a mere art form to a potential subject for study in terms of the issues that it raises and the supposedly influences it has on the spectators. It is now conceived as a versatile art form. Cinema not only provides a site for entertainment, but also a platform to reinforce certain values and ideals. In the same vein, if we trace the history of Indian cinema, we would find that Gandhian values and ideals have made their presence felt, to some degree, in Hindi films. Any movie on the Indian independence theme or any biography on a real life historical character around the independence era is incomplete without the mention of Mahatma Gandhi. This is not to deny the fact that there has always been a shift in the themes of Hindi Cinema which has in turn kept the Gandhian principles out of focus. On the other hand, it should not imply the complete ignorance or disrespect for Gandhian values. The paper looks into one such film - Lage Raho Munna Bhai (LRMB), released in the year 2006, which locates Gandhian values in the contemporary setting. The film revolves around the virtues and values of Mahatma Gandhi, propagated through the narrative, without merely being reduced into didactic preaching. The Gandhian era is believed to have been evoked in the 21st century through this film.
A sociological understanding of Satyagraha depicted in the film has been attempted by interviewing a sample of college goingstudents in New Delhi. Such an academic exercise was considered useful because sociology teaches us that films are not consumed passively by the audiences. Instead, they can be subjected to multiple interpretations by the active viewers. Usually, sociologically directed studies on cinema have either examined films as reflections of society and of social change or as articulations of identity. In this process, audiences are either invisible or relegated to the background as aggregate factors of class or gender. It therefore becomes essential to look for the multiple meanings of 'Satyagraha' as interpreted by the students and also the degree of reliability on such practice in their day-to-day activities.
The rationale behind considering Lage Raho Munnabhai (LRMB) as an example to examine the concept of Satyagraha and its meaning in contemporary India is because of its popularity and the potential use of Gandhian values in settling conflicts in everyday life. The film bases its story on a Gandhian theme where the intended message is that ultimately truth wins over falsehood and non-violent resistance over the use of brute force. The sample for this study was drawn from 60 students belonging to both the sexes in the age group of 17-21 years. All the students were attending undergraduate college in New Delhi, though in different years.
This paper attempts not only to make an analysis of the film and the discussion related to it but also to examine the relevance of concepts like 'Satyagraha' and 'non-violence' in the everyday life of the college going students. An analysis of the film is done to make the readers acquaint themselves with the storyline and the academic debates regarding the representation of Gandhian values in the film and the multiple interpretations of the film it can generate. This not only makes the study appear more sociological, but also puts forth an argument that film studies need not be confined to the writers or director's intentions and motives. Nor should they be put under mere content analysis and academic debates; rather it requires understanding of the film and the meaning it conveys to the audiences.
The film Lage Raho Munna Bhai advocates a non-violent approach to resolve conflicts. In a sequel to the super hit Munna Bhai MBBS (2003), the now famous duo of taporis (small-time street hoods), Munna Bhai (Actor Sanjay Dutt), and his sidekick, Circuit (Actor Arshad Warsi), return to propagate what the filmmaker perceives to be the message of Mahatma Gandhi. Munna Bhai falls in love with Jhanvi (Vidya Balan), a radio jockey whom he would meet in person if he were to win a quiz on Gandhi that she is conducting over the radio. He wins the quiz by kidnapping and arm-twisting some history teachers and is invited to the show for a live interview. He meets her on the show pretending to be a history professor whose mission is to spread 'Gandhigiri' among the youth by using tapori lingo. Impressed with Munna Bhai's dedication to Gandhi, Jhanvi invites him to speak to a bunch of elderly men who, after being abandoned by their own children, live in her house. Left with no option but to study, he immerses himself in the dusty books housed in a dilapidated library devoted to Gandhi's life and thought. After three nights of continuous studying, Gandhi (Actor Dileep Prabhavalkar) shows up to meet Munna Bhai. The only problem is that no one else can see Gandhi; so everyone thinks that Munna Bhai is hallucinating. S. Ganesh raises certain critical issues related to the depiction of Gandhian ideals in the film. According to him, LRMB pleads powerfully for the Gandhian alternative. The experiment with truth by Munna Bhai starts with passion for an unseen girl. So this version of Gandhi's truth, he points out, involves an opportunity to woo a girl, followed by hallucination.
