    The Indian version of Me and My Homeland. Guess the ending after seeing two-thirds of it. I even watched two Indian films, both of which involved social transformation. Being able to face up to your own backwardness and problems is the beginning of improvement. The main theme is good, but the main characters are a bit too tall, and the old routines of Indian movies cannot be avoided. This is Indian cinema, there is nothing that can't be done with a song and dance....

    The three major characteristics of Indian films: long, singing and dancing, not boring, and it is a good work. There are many shadows of China in this film, the struggle between tradition and change, the entanglement between difficulties and hope. The love of the homeland requires something to be implicated, making people give up on themselves and light up the lights of more people. In the past 6 years, it may be more difficult for us to find the simplicity and innocence of the...

    The relatively rare Indian films with a realistic style, although the ending is still very idealistic and far from reality, can still be seen that Indian filmmakers pay attention to the lower class people and reflect on...

    It can be read as a companion piece to "My Name is Khan". The music is good, the pictures are good, and the story is quite exciting. I think everyone in a foreign country misses their homeland exactly the...

Swades quotes

  • Fatima Bi: Apne hi paani me mil jaana barf ka muqqadar hota hai.

  • Mohan Bhargav: I'm only speaking of things I've experienced while living here. And that is that we keep fighting among ourselves when we must fight against illiteracy, over-population & corruption. Everyday, in our streets & homes, each one of us keeps saying their is no future of this country. This country is on the path of destruction. If we keep saying this, we will one day actually land up there. You'll need to do something about this. You too! Not just the members of the Panchayat but everyone in the village. You're blaming Panchayat for your problems. But when you step into their shoes, you'll do the same thing. This applies to me too. The dalits blame the brahmins and brahmins claim that their piety is despoiled by the dalits. The blacksmith & potter blame the moneylender. The land owners blame the peasants, but they don't give them their rights. In what way are we great then? If we have problems in the village, we point our finger at the State and the State at someone else. We all are finding fault with each other! But the true fact is that we're all to be blamed. Because the problem is us. Me, you, all of us...

    Vishwa: Are you out of your mind! What are you saying?

    Mohan Bhargav: All I know is that a weaver who changed his occupation by becoming a farmer can't even feed his family or give his children even some basic education. He can only watch his kids die of malnutrition.
