Cinemas reflect our society
CINEMA REFLECTS OUR SOCIETY
Movies and cinema has always been an element of fun, time pass for many of us, for over more than a century. However there are movies made, which are not just elements of fun or time pass rather they carry a message for all of us and to improve our society.
Deepa Mehta’s movies like Fire, Water, Earth have been in controversies but they highlight the atrocities done to Indian women before Independence.
The movie Phir Milenge tells us how a lady fights back and retains her pride lost because she was HIV +.
The movie Taare Zameem Par highlights the problems faced by kids due to the burden of studies due to which the creativity in them dies down.
The film Newyork had more than something to do with the 9/11 twin tower attack. The movie ‘Page 3’ effectively brings out the utmost details of the page 3 category people belonging to upper class society. The movie ‘Fashion’ highlights the dark, gloomy and pitiful state of affairs in the world of fashion, modelling and glamour. These films are mere cinematic version of the unquestionable truth or fact and we somehow identify with the characters in the movie.
Apart from films, television acts as a mirror act of the society at times too. The popular TV show “Balika Vadhu’ highlights the all time evil of child marriage and the problems that come with it.
Cinema have persistently dealt with the problems of the society and brought out the darkest secrets of the world. I would like to salute the filmmakers, actors and producers who are still doing their bit to let the people know about the society better. Hence I strongly feel that cinemas are undeniably reflective of the society that we live in and the strong link between reel and real and is here to stay.
