Phir Mile Sur.. Na Sur Mila hai naa taal..

The starting scene is pretty cool, the green land depicting the green color of flag, the white is shown by the river whereas the saffron by the saffron colored sky. This landscape is pretty cool, spell bounding and mesmerizing.
The whole fuzziness starts with Big B singing "Mile Sur Mera Tumhara..." in some what rap style and as if some englishman is singing it, then suddenly it goes into classical mode which then give way to rock like singing. The first few minutes just shows how the classic can be turned into bullshit. Also, there is no synchronization between music and singing and music sucks big time.
As though this was not enough that in every scene we have a bollywood, kollywood or ...wood actor actress singing it, as compared to original Mile Sur.... in which a major film shows the common man. After watching it a very obvious question comes to mind, Do actors represent whole country??
Finally, I have to say, Phir Mile Sur me naa sur mila hai na hi taal bas agar kuch mila hai to kewal actor aur actress... Phir se sur milane ke kosis me Mile Sur ka murder kar diya gaya hai ..

sur mile ya na mile... dil jaroor milne chahiye.... kya ho gaya hai apni country ko... why this regionalism ?? if our actors can do something then kudos to them but just featuring in a video... is that all ?? they can stand for their fraternity when King Khan is affected, why don't they take initiative when commoners are being affected in Maharashtra, in Assam ?? dude, well written !!!

What we are seeing is not new, it has been there in India since ages and it will be there. About bollywood not standing with SRK,there are mainly two reason, first, they don't want to go against the gundaism of the T's and second, it is normal human tendency to not take initiative against any problem until it affect them. Nothing will change until we change the mentality of the commoners, once they know what is wrong and what is right no one can fool and that will be the day when regionalism and other dividing factor will not work.... 'We the youth need to take the initiative'...
