Is it Ram or Rahim?

 We the young lads in India are no strange to the 'Ram-Rahim Case' which happened in August of 2017. It was a time when a criminal used the name of a Hindu God just to carry out his misdeeds and tried to easily get away with it. It was the period when some highly stupid people got down to violence just to protect a rapist from getting punished. Now this case evoked a question within me- why do we use the name of God just everywhere- from helping us earn our bread and butter to carrying out forced religion changes across the world? 

Not only this but some people use Gods as a medium of jokes and try to be funny at the expense of other people religious sentiment. I know this because some time ago I was watching a news channel where 6 popular stand up comedians were accused of making fun of the Hindu God and Goddesses. It was the day after bhoomi poojan ceremony. At first I thought that it was normal if someone had to do this to earn money but later I realised it was never okay.

Why is it that God and Goddesses are targeted again and again just because the person doesn't like the other person's religion? Let me ask you something was the movie PK absolutely fine? There a scene in the movie where Hindu God Shivji was disrespected because he was shown running after Aamir Khan. I mean when do you see Gods running like this in the streets? It was absolutely unacceptable for Hindus and there anger was completely justified.

Coming back to the stand up comedians, 4 out of 6 were muslims.  I not am saying muslims are bad but I am saying that it is just because of 4 people that the entire community was questioned. I mean why did they chose Gods as a matter of joke? One of them even compared Ram Mandir to a bar.

I think it is due to our constitution that such people have the guts to just walk about in anywhere and speak absolute nuisance. I think it is us, we the people, who boost up these people and then crib for the wrong such comedians do.

This has now become a trend in bollywood. Some popular examples are OMG! and PK. In both of these movies the Almighty was disrespected in one way or the other. I want to ask these so called "elite bollywood class" who the hell are you to make fun of one religion. Aamir khan never disrespected Islam just because he follows it. Even in Islam there are many practices which are questionable and controversial. These need to be discussed in the public sphere (like triple talak and halala). What hurts the most is that the lead actress in PK was a Hindu but still allowed such things to happen. When it comes to nepotism or lack of oppurtunities in Bollywood all of us share insta stories and make a havoc on social sites but when it comes to these topics no one speaks about them. 

Not only in Bollywood but we humans who consider ourselves the most intelligent beings have proven to be the mst stupid of all over and over again by beleiving people like Ram Rahim and Asaram who have ruined uncountable lives and are now behind the bars. It is quite amusing that people who were first considered the people of God are now behind the bars serving their time.

We the new generation want to live in a society where people give the milk which they offer the God on Shivratri to poor people, where people give the blankets to a old person lying the cold rather than offering them in the Masjids. 

 I am not trying to prove any community or religion superior over the other but I am trying to explain that making fun of other communities in any form is not funny. It is not cool. I want these "30-40 year mature people" to grow up and raise their voice against the wrong.

We all are now tired of all this and WE WANT A CHANGE.

SCB- India's Best Kept Secret?

Image
 We all know about Subhash Chandra Bose right? One thing about this famous Indian patriot is that his death has always been a very intriguing thing for our fellow countrymen. I researched for about 6 months in this context and came across certain theories which can be very much true. Now in the government documents it is shown that Bose died on 18th August 1945 in Taiwan in a plane crash. The reason for his death being third degree burns.Up until today Bose's ashes are kept in Japan. Now the real conspiracy starts from this point. A few years later than Bose's demise, the Indian men wanted the ashes of their great freedom fighter to be brought back and cremated according to the Indian norms in the holy river of Ganga. At first the government was quite resistant but proving what they ruled out in the documents was true, they agreed to the demand of the countrymen. Then one day without any prior information it was announced that Bose's ashes were brought back and cremated in ...

Gen Z: The everyday changing youth?

 So this blog is gonna be a bit analytical, analyzing the various influences on the current generation, or so to say the Gen Z. This very dynamic globe has already left its impact on the earlier generations, in one way or the other. It made some people believe in themselves while the others were on the other side of the coin. And now it is our generation on the radar of this unstoppable cycle of change. Surely, it 2ont be wrong to call our generation a mob of  'most confused newbies' in this big blue world. On one day we want to be independent in every form possible and on the other days we find our happiness in other people/things/animals etc. . On one hand this generation boasts about the way they value their lives and on the end the suicide rates among them is constantly rising. According to a study conducted by the NDTV in the year 2018, 3 out of every 10 students are of the mindset or on the verge to end their lives over some petty subjects like peer pressure. Talking abo...

Narendra Modi: The man who predicted the future?

 So all of us remember the spine-chilling February of 2020 right? All of us remember the Delhi riots and the endless bloodshed right? But the question do you remember the spark that ignited such horrendous cycle of events? Well if you don't, I'll tell you. It all began on 10th January 2020 when the CAA bill came into force. That was the time which marked the beginning of a chronological pattern of crimes which are better to be forgot than remembered. It totally revolutionized the Indian demography forever. And coincidentally , that was the time when India was ruled by a leader who was earlier involved, or thought to be involved in the Gujarat riots in 2002. Narendra Modi represented India intercontinentally in 2019. When this act came into force and after 1000s of people lost their possessions, the BJP was highly criticized by the majority. Not only the opposition but people from every strata of society passed their judgements on the NDA government.  But the recent course of a...
