Rockstar Relived!!!

Rockstar________________________________

Speechless this movie got me… Despite the fact that the mass audience didn’t like the movie… this movie rocked for me…

At times some movies are “not” meant for large audience… its not dabang type masala movie that any tom dick and harry will come out yelling… “wow what a movie”… Rockstar is a dark movie… it does have flaws… major one being Heers acting skills… But if we ignore that… the movie is amazing…

This movie shows that each one has a dark side… a side which one hides from the world … a mask that each one wear… but ranbirs charater is just the opposite… he is upset, frustrated… and the world can see it… its right there… simple… nothing more … nothing less…

But in the whole movie, there are few scenes which 99.99% people do not understand… in the era when he is all famous… as a volient rockstar, they show that ranbir regularly just goes and stands outside his old home from where he was thrown out… stands at the darga where he stayed for 2 months after being thrown out of his own house… quietly he stands there staring at the place… just shows that whatever his image is to the world… a loud star… he olny finds peace or feels at home at these places…

Secondly, the lyrics of the songs… music… and the justice done to the singers by ranbir… just a perfect fit… every song is so so meaningful… I feel sad for all those who just couldn’t connect to this movie… I felt maybe they have a long way to go in life… maybe they haven’t experienced enof pain to even relate by 10% to the movie and call it a thrash… pheww!!!

There is a line which is shown in the start and end of the movie… which is simply amazing… it says… not sure of the exact words but it goes something like this...

“Beyond a zone from “right and wrong doing” there is a field…. And you will find me there”

Few things which is a total crap in our society didn’t seem wrong… Ranbir falling in love with a married lady… and vice versa… it just looked perfect… not sure how many agree to it… but it did tell that at times… heart speaks louder than the mind… and for the heart… its hard to convince with what is right and what is wrong… it just falls in love…

Few lines in the lyrics just touched me… esp the doha in “Nadaan Parinday” song… one of my good friend told me what that doha means… would love to share it with you guys…

Kaaga re kaaga re mori itni araj tose
Chun chun khaaiyo maans
Kaaga re kaaga re mori itni araj tose
Chun chun khaaiyo maans

Re jiya re khaaiyon na tu naina more
Khaaiyon na tu naina mohe
Piya ke milan ki aas
Khaaiyon na tu naina more
Khaaiyon na tu naina mohe
Piya ke milan ki aas

In the above lines… ranbir is pleading to God.. that if you wanna take my life away, then you can take my each body part slowly… but leave my two eyes intact… as even while I die this slow death I wanna see my love….


*Added Later* (After my friend corrected the explanation given above :P) 


He is pleading to God...When he is dying and hasnt got a burial,as birds eat his body they should eat it slowly and leave his eyes..as he still has hopes that he will see his beloved before he dies...

Amazing love isn’t it…

But I understand that why most of them didn’t like it… as its not meant for each ones level or understanding or relating …. Its too deep… its too dark…
