The Bong Connection

This movie by Anjan Dutt 'Bong Connection', I couldn't have watched it at other better time then this at present. Its a movie about ones root and how much it means to him. Its about two guys. First guy NRI in US coming to India from US and other one a bong like me ( though not like me but atleast I am a bong too :) )going to US from India.

The NRI guy was harrased by cab driver when he landed in India and that will sure to happen most of the time, I am damn sure. The second guy , he mugged by a group of spanish speaking people, and ask me how much possibility is that to happen. As a residential security aide, during my on-campus part time job, I have seen and handle these cases very often.

Its a movie about two face of same culture. One pure Indian version and second american version of Bong culture and also there the Third face of Bangladesh, our neighbour once a part of India. When the two face come together it total mess. In India people tends to show off and westernised and in US Indians try try and try to be Indian.

I realised one thing and it is that I am a bengali but for some reason I have been saying,unknowlingly I am a Rajasthani Bengali. Today I came to know the reason it is because I have spent 12 years of my 25 year life in Rajasthan and so it comes up to me naturaly. Now I can't change myself. Even if I stay in US I can't become American. I will become second class US citizen and NRI (Non Required /Non Reliable Indian).

At the end of the movie both the guys went back to their land of brought up, where they belong. That what is a happy ending, mentaly atleast it is a happy ending---I am sure, very sure.

Life is about to live and so live the life with your identity. Dont borrow some second party's identity. After all, all born alone and will die alone too; and in between you get a chance to live your own's life. Why to waste that chance by intimidating someone else.

-----Change is a law of nature and the whole universe is governed and rule by this law, but at the end of the day there is something that never change.
You can intimate anyone, give up your citizenship, your nationality, your country but then at teh end of the day who you are.....haha....yes, things change but things never change.
