Chennai, July 18: Ex Karnataka chief minister H.D. Kumaraswamy on Monday glorify
‘Jai Bhim’ and ‘Jana Gana Mana’, two hard-hitting films(movies) that held a mirror to society, saying about the directors of both films were praiseworthy.
Taking to Twitter, the ex Chief Minister, through a long series of tweets, shared his thoughts on the two films, which he had watched while being medicate at his home for Covid last week.He said that, “I have spent time reading and watching movies while being medicate for Covid at home for the last one week. I watched two films ‘Jai Bhim’ and ‘Jana Gana Mana’. Both films with their sensitive story plot touched my heart and also felt agitated”.“India should think about the bitter truth spoken by Honourable Supreme Court Chief Justice Ramana’s comments on undertrial prisoners and portrayal of similar issue in ‘Jai Bhim’ showing harsh realities faced by undertrials. I will also think and make an attempt,” he stated.“Is Indian judicial system out of reach of the Dalits and the weaker section? An accused, if wealthy, can get bail in a few hours while poor (in many cases innocent) will continue to weaken behind bars. ‘Jai Bhim’ has realistically portrayed hell behind the bars,” Kumaraswamy lamented.“As many as 121 tribals were arrested in 2017 in the connection with an attack on CRPF men in Chhattisgarh. After going through hell for five years behind bars, the NIA court gave them a clean chit saying there is no proof of their involvement. This is somewhat calm,” he told.
“Jana Gana Mana’captures today’s political hypocrisy, slyness and promiscuity. It shows how the system caught in the hands of political whirlwind becomes helpless. Cinemas that hold mirror to the system make one angry & think. Directors of both cinemas are praiseworthy,” he added.”Jana Gana Mana’ delightfully captures today’s political hypocrisy, slyness and promiscuity.
