The analogy... Movie and Life...

Let me reiterate the famous dialogue from movie "Anand"...

"Babu mahashyaa... jindagi aur maut upar wale ki haat hai.. jahan pana... use na aap badal sakte hain na main.. Ham sab to rang manch ke kath putliyan hai... jinki dor upar wale ki ungli main bandhi hai.. kab kaun kaise uthega ye koi nahin bata sakta hai... ha ha ha.."

Wondering why I'm talking about this old dialogue?? Because this dialogue is not just a dialogue of a movie.. it is the very basic principle of our life...
I strongly believe in the context of this dialogue.. that everything is controlled by the master.. We are just the actors... we have nothing much to do but just act as per our director's (God's) direction.. so, our job is to give a nice and solid performance in the movie (this life)... that's it...

Let me elaborate my point..

The script has been written for the movie (our life)... who has written it?? Of course, God.. So, God is the script writer, producer and director of our movie..
We play different roles in the movie...
In the movie, you play the lead character role... and other different characters have been defined like father, mother, sister, wife, friends etc..These characters have been defined to support your character... So, the characters have been defined and the plot is there.. its upto you how you play the role of the character...
Give your heart out performance to justify the character and make the movie hit.. Don't think much about other character's script.. They will justify their roles... Just concentrate on your script..

Let us come to the end of the movie..

So, the movie has come to an end.. now depending upon how you have performed your role, the movie will be a hit or it will be a flop... (Don't question the script for the success or failure... obviously the script is very very strong...)
Suppose the movie is a hit... so, what will happen?? Obviously, our actors will get better roles in their forthcoming movies...(next life).. However, if the movie has become a flop then our actors will struggle to get good roles in their next movies..(next life).. they will get roles but not the lead roles...
So, the life equation is very simple.. Is not it??
The actor who has performed the role of your brother in this movie (this life) may act as your father in the next movie.. and the guy who is doing the lead role in this movie, may get the role of a servant in the next movie if his performance is not good...
Once the movie making is over, all the actors are individuals only.. they are not brother.. not father.. ... not wife... again they will look for another movie... but depending upon their acting in the previous movie, the director will give a role in the next movie..

So, let us understand that our life is nothing but a big movie... Just concentrate on your good acting... If you can justify the character that you are acting then definitely you are going to get the lead role in the next movie...

Thanks,

The whole of the analogy was quite elaborate and indeed a great piece of thought...Nicely put up...But to cut it short,it reminded me of Shakespeare's As You Like It where the melancholy Jaques(a character role)has left imprints on our hearts and minds through the magical words, since ages and many more to come.Shakespeare penned his idea about LIFE and in fact gave the whole world a thought...Luckily many took up the thought and even many didn't....But,anywayz its has,is and will be inspiring to led LIFE which is in fact is a complete mystery and very hard to be decoded...Jaques deploys the theatrical metaphor for his famous speech on the Seven Ages of Man.It goes as :-"All the world's a stage,
And all the men and women merely players;They have their exits and their entrances,And one man in his time plays many parts,His acts being seven ages."These words are just magical and are highly profound.

Anywayz,to keep the cool,Do Your Best And Leave The Rest.

Njoy LIFE as it comes to you...

A Family Road Trip from Bengaluru to Kolli Hills: A Serene Escape On the bright morning of May 18th, 2024 at 7 am, we set off from Bengaluru, eagerly anticipating our family road trip to the serene Kolli Hills in Tamil Nadu. The journey was filled with excitement and curiosity, as we were headed to a place known for its natural beauty and tranquility, yet less commercialized and hyped compared to other hill stations. The Journey: Navigating Through Road Diversions Our drive took us through the evolving roads from Bengaluru to Tamil Nadu, marked by numerous diversions due to ongoing road construction. Despite these interruptions, the journey was smooth, offering us glimpses of the changing landscapes as we moved away from the city’s hustle and bustle towards the quietude of the hills.

Rameswaram Trip - Har Har Mahadev! Trip Date: Nov 5th and 6th 2022 Distance from Bangalore: 611 km Time taken by road: 11 hrs Road: NH 44 and NH 87 - Road condition - Excellent Rameswaram is a town on Pamban Island, in the southeast Indian state of Tamil Nadu. It’s known for Shri Ramanathaswamy Temple, a Hindu pilgrimage site with ornate corridors, huge sculpted pillars and sacred water tanks. Devotees bathe in the waters of Agni Theertham, off the beach east of the temple.  Lord Ram and Maa Sita had consecrated the Jyotirling at Rameswaram after killing Ravan while returning back from Lanka. 22 Kund Snanam or Theerth Snanam: 22 Kund Snanam starts with Samudra Snanam at Agni Theertham . It is believed that the first kund/theertham lies submerged under the sea and hence the snanam ritual starts from taking a dip at  Agni Theertham . Agni Theertham is just walking distance away from the main temple. After the Samudra Snanam it was time for the 22 Kund Snanam. And all t...
