I am often called a total cynic by readers and friends, but I think in this instance, most die hard optimists will reluctantly agree with my highly negative view: I think we are heading for a huge disaster in the coming future, I think we are on a free fall to mass death and destruction.
The terrorists, helped and abetted by disgruntled locals, are toying around with us, I guess their delicious dilemma these days is which target to choose next. Much the way we discuss where to meet for a drink this weekend.
And in the democratic system we have, the two national parties have ensured our path to destruction is smoothened and ready for use by the agents of terror. The Congress and its allies will not do anything to smoke out people who provide a base to the foreign terrorists, as they consider the Muslim community to be a key vote bank, and they would never risk offending any innocent. In harder States like the US, UK and Israel, this consideration would not exist at all… even as you read this, in similar circumstances, they would be knocking on the doors of every suspect. I recall how the Brits used a battering ram to break open the doors of a popular mosque in London, because they thought it harboured terrorists. Signora Sonia would not even consider such an option.
And then we have the BJP and its allies, who began all the trouble in the first place when they inspired the demolition of the Babri mosque, and achieved great success in their vote garnering strategy: totally polarise the society, thus inflicting an irreversible rift between communities. How can there ever be unity in a divided India? The members of the minority community will forever feel alienated and bitter.
Bottomline: Either ways, we are screwed. One party wants to take no hard action, and the other is determined to cut us into parts. And the people who pay the price for this criminalised democracy is we, the condemned junta. As bombs explode up our arses when we go out to eat chaat or watch a movie. I don’t think anyone is asking if there’ll be a next attack. We are only wondering when and where the next explosion will be. All depends on where the dice drops on the board of terror.

Hi Anil , this is Nilesh ,With reference to your post in mirror :"Take heart, dear ramu"-Yes , i agree with you, i'm sorry i'm placing my comment at wrong place coz i don't want my id to be published along with my name in case...I was surpirsed even before finishing the film he said "my film is going to be a flop" ,was he serious or joking, i think he was quite sure of what he was making.
Ramu is definitely a very talented and intelligent man , he is better than many of the directors who make lollypop films , he was the man who introduced many fine directors like shamit amin or shri ram raghavan and technicians to bollywood .Nobody nobody can match the sense of humour of RGV in bollywood , he is extremely candid but i think he deliberately made this egg , i suspect he loved sholay though he might have watched all the films released he don't believe in those kind of films , he made mockery of sholay not remake , in deed he made history in any which way for making the worst sholay remake ever or the best parody or mockery of sholay , it is sheer arrogance not ignorance on his part to remake this film , in this attempt he not only burnt his fingers but also that of co - producers and distributors , he should stay away from these useless attempts and i'm sure he will be back with a bang with sarkar raj or who knows even with 'darling' releasing this week.
RGV 's joke on sholay aka RGV ki aag is going to be the most talked about flop in the history of bollywood , he indeed created something phenomenal and he is gutsy to make such a brave attempt , he has screwed sholay well done! Ramu
