The story of the movie is very simple. It is a criminal case, which is likely to happen in daily life. However, many people cannot achieve the meticulous and detailed arrangement and escape from the investigation by the hero of the story. From the perspective of the protagonist’s magical anti-reconnaissance skills, the nature and plot of the case is really very simple.
The protagonist has a happy family, a stable career, a very beautiful wife, and two lovely daughters. The family enjoys a good time. However, the eldest daughter encountered a video of a scumbag taking a naked bath while traveling. , And threatened the eldest daughter and his wife, wanting to behave badly. The eldest daughter rebelled and killed the scumbag man by mistake. For this reason, the male protagonist, as the backbone of the family, resolutely decided to conceal this matter, and adopted a series of measures to create alibi, avoid the police's interrogation, and finally won.
I admire the protagonist's meticulous thinking and anti-reconnaissance methods. In the end, I am very grateful that because of "no doubt," the court has tolerated the small happy life of this family due to insufficient evidence. Just looking at the story, I feel that the actor seems to be lucky and deserves the punishment he deserves. In Indian society, people who watch movies probably end up feeling that the actor's family should end this way.
If you were in the mainland, you would probably become a policeman who finally cracked his true thoughts and found out the murderer. The heroine was sent to jail with a sad ending that won the sympathy of the audience. In Indian society, such crimes that are not harmful to society are tolerated.
One is that the film reveals the arbitrariness and corruption of the Indian judiciary. In such a judicial environment, there is no legal fairness at all. Therefore, private individuals have to resort to this way to get relief and get the audience's approval. At the beginning of the film, it is expressed that the corruption and greed of Indian judicial personnel make people angry. Fortunately, the Indian courts are independent of the administration. Otherwise, in Mainland China, with the rights of the victim’s mother’s prosecutor general and his father’s wealth, the problem can be solved in another way. In this judicial environment in India, the male protagonist can use his talents to help his happy life.
The second is that India, as the birthplace of Buddhism, is more relevant for the general public to believe in Buddhism. I always feel that the people around me can feel the justice of this case. Just as the Chinese proverb “a good person has a reward”, the male protagonist does good things in the area and helps many people, thus gaining blessings. Similarly, because he is a good person, the surrounding people can tolerate the identity of their family as a suspect and continue to live in the town. Life. On the contrary, if in China, it is probably not the victim's parents who moved out of this sad place, but the actor's family moved out of this embarrassing place because he could not stand the eyes of the surroundings.
Under this special environment, ordinary people cannot rely on the judicial system to punish crimes and get fairness. Therefore, through their own means, to maintain their own happiness and save their loved ones, they have gained social recognition. At the back of the film, a large group of ordinary people frantically flattened the corrupt police, but let the audience feast on it, expressing their resentment towards corruption.
In addition to the beautiful ending of the story and the tense twists and turns in the middle, people have a good impression of this film. The fragments of life based on their own materials are also cherished and happy.
After I watched the film carefully, I turned around and watched it again. There were many shining points buried in the lines. For example, the reminiscence and narrative techniques used in "Shawshank's Redemption" hide many key points. When I look back, I suddenly realize that I feel even more happy.
