Sports film, really hot. Character arcs, storylines, and social values ​​are perfectly integrated, and it's well done. Like the daughter, the audience misunderstood the male authority of the father at first, and just let the daughter complete the regret of winning the international gold medal for herself. Later, I realized that my father's true intentions were that he wanted his daughters to have their own lives. He didn't want to get married at the age of 14 like most women, and be accompanied by pots and pans all their lives. In the end, it is a role model for the thousands of Indian girls behind! ! The best way to deal with it is to talk about grand patriotism, competitive spirit, fighting spirit, and women's rights from specific stories and characters. Many people say that fathers deprive girls of their childhood, determine their lives, and distort their values. However, in the social context of India, if the father does not deprive them, they have their own social deprivation. Like thousands of ordinary Indian girls, they have no right to choose their own lives. In fact, the growth of girls' hearts is also staged. At the beginning, they didn't understand their father either. The father was just for his own selfishness, so he had resisted, so the training at this time was passive. But later, after realizing his father's painstaking efforts, he actively devoted himself to training. At this time, he was proactive. If they don't exert their subjective initiative, it is useless to let their father train as they do, and they will not achieve such great achievements. Going to the back, in fact, the father seems to have become their spiritual support and belief. The part of the battle between Geeta and her father is a node. She seems to have defeated her father, but she has indeed lost her spiritual support. Therefore, she suffered successive setbacks in subsequent games. After reconciling with his father later, he regained the pillar and won a few games. But the real growth is up to you, and your father can't be by your side forever. In the final game, Geeta won the game by himself even though his father was not able to cheer him up. This is the ultimate growth!

Character level: From being his father, to himself, to his country, Geeta has grown up! From passive, active, to independent, Geeta has grown! From for himself, for his daughter, to for the country, the father has also grown up!

Story level: From forced training, to active training, to participating in the village competition for the first time, defeating male players, to winning the national championship step by step, to attending a professional sports academy, and representing India in international competitions. The difficulty of the protagonist's challenge is getting bigger and bigger, and the story is getting more and more exciting!

Emotional level: father-daughter love, sisterhood, patriotism, all in place! Taking the small family as everyone, and writing the big theme with small things, the victory of the small self is the victory of the big self. The combination is just right and interlocking, causing a strong resonance among the audience! !

Value level: From being chosen to dominating their own lives, millions of Indian women have seen a different life! Women, in India, are accompanied by pots and pans for life. Letting women wrestle is a thing that is ridiculed and impossible. But in the end, fathers and daughters reversed popular belief with their actions. It is in the context of Indian patriarchal society that the more valuable the victory of women revealed in this film is revealed!

In every way, it's handled very well! It is also a very typical type of film, worth learning! Sports film, the theme is really stable, inspirational, passionate, patriotic!

Dangal quotes

  • Mahavir Singh Phogat: You have to fight in a way that people will remember you. If you win silver, sooner or later, you will be forgotten. If you win gold, you will be an example, And examples are given, child... not forgotten. See those girls? If you win tomorrow, you will not win alone. Millions of girls like them will win along with you. It will be a victory for every girl who is considered inferior to boys; who is forced into household chores, who is married off to just raise children. Tomorrow's match is the most important one. Because tomorrow, we are not fighting just that Australian, but all those people who think lesser of girls.
