    MAHABHARAT ! The greatest Epic of the Subcontinent on TV, 21st Century Style.

    Ofcourse the "powers" of these humans have been exaggerated. I dont believe in any of htese my self . I see myself as an athiest. BUT I do know that Krishna existed, as did his kingdom. But what does the mahabharat being a Myth or a real story have anything to do with my desire for it to be...

    MAHABHARAT ! The greatest Epic of the Subcontinent on TV, 21st Century Style.

    It would have been awesome if a hollywood production pickedup on the Mahabharat or Ramayan script and turned it into a 300 styled movie. I know it wont ever happen, because the hindu nationalists will go berserk over the slightest mistakes.

    MAHABHARAT ! The greatest Epic of the Subcontinent on TV, 21st Century Style.

    Mahabharat is distinctly a north Indian epic. Ramayana however revolved around south India aswell. Jesus turned water into Wine. I WANT that guy to be real :cheers:

    Fair? - A documentary about skin colour in India

    You are partially right. BUT during its birth, bollywood was started by Punjabi/urdhu/hindi speakers of north India. Most people within the industry already had family/social ties. And it catered towards "that crowd". Later on , I guess because the actors conversed theri dislodges in...

    Fair? - A documentary about skin colour in India

    These people have no sha lol sneaky remarks there! But I think worst are those offenders who choose to promote the bleaching products. Basically its saying that "you lots who employ me through your hard earned money are not good enough... but here maybe this'll help"

    Fair? - A documentary about skin colour in India

    See often I hear people say that there is a notable difference in the skin tone between the Brahmins and the people that they are surrounded by. Maybe there is some truth to this, but I think its but the difference is exaggerated imho. Brahmins in south India being from the north is...

    Fair? - A documentary about skin colour in India

    ofcourse it is, but perception of whats considered beautiful (skin tone) is is result of many factors. Its not just dark skin= tanned skin=labor worker! I think it goes a step beyond that. Look at how the "gods" are painted now, vs how they were depicted back before the British rule . Even...

    Fair? - A documentary about skin colour in India

    I think that comes with preconceived nothion that darker skin= people of the under class. British , and the Turko imperialism in India only built on to that understanding. You would be lying to yourself if you did not admit that huge chunk of the Bollywood "A listers" look similar to only a...

    Fair? - A documentary about skin colour in India

    ps: not that it matters, but I was born here. I would think my viewpoints on this topic probably aligns with that of other desi folks from north America.
