A Beautiful Mind ..... Those who have seen the Film or have read the Story, must be knowing that the story is about an exemplary and gifted Mathematician named John Forbes Nash, who single-handedly revolutionized the world business by introducing the idea of game theory. Of course you would be also knowing that in the film Russell Crowe acted Brilliantly, again.
However, I am not really keen on discussing some synopsis over the Film or the Book. I am rather interested in the fact that, not a single book of this kind is ever dedicated after any Indian personality till date. Don't get me wrong, there are some great Biographies written by some outstanding authors on some enigmatic personalities, but look closely and you will find that many of the times the books are of informative types. They either inspire people or bore people, since these books have some specific target audience. These are definitely not for the global audience. So, if you try to make a Movie out of them, they will be either some highly critically acclaimed "Art film" or a typically boring slow melodrama or some Masala flick. Come on, where is the Dynamism ?
Are these history's course altering timeless Indian heroes lacked Dynamism or they had less valour or they had less passion or less intelligence or less patriotism or what ? Don't you think any one of the great Indian minds could also have recieved the same or appreciably close amount of honour or accolades ? So, why do we become stingy while in comes to praising our national achievers. No matter how much one deny, we secretly still have retained the inherent racist cocooned inside us. We love the whites. We hate the blacks. We love the 1st world country people, we love to be like them and hence hate our fellow members.
Frankly, we love our girls to be white like them and hence all the girls indulge in the so-called Fairness creams everywhere, to try the hardest to be the wee bit of less black. We hate ourselves for our origin so much that we try to talk and walk like the whites and assume ourselves to be one of them only, which to be fair they don't really reciprocate. And now it is even worse. Even Male-Fairness Cream is looming at large and all of our so-called "metro" guys are buying them to be that wee bit fairer. Guys, come on. We need not follow others. We can stand on our backbone and be proud of our own culture, heritage, skin colour and thought process. We can really stand and set examples and let others follow, instead of following others blindly. On the other hand where the white caucasians are spending a fortune to land themselves under sunlight in some beach, only to increase the proportion of Melanin in their skin (for those who don't know, Melanin is the black pigmentation material in our skin and it prevents Skin-Cancer) our own shitty-heads are spending a fortune over this Fairness Cream circus just to lose the Melanin.
I must have been crazy. Else why am I writing all these. I know it very well, a lot of guys here will read and then consider this piece of writing as a mere academic stint and forget the very next moment. However, one can not lose hope, isn't it ? Hence I hope ... and I hope that one day our fellows will realize what they have done, what they are doing and what they should have done. May be that day is not so near in future. But, as I told you, one should not lose hope. Hence I will just hope that the day is coming when we will truly say that 'I am an Indian and I am proud to be an Indian, and I really do possess a very Beautiful Mind'.
