At first glance at the name, I didn't understand the meaning of my land and my people.

He is a man with very delicate emotions, just like those weak scholars in Qiong Yao's works. He often has tears in his eyes and is easily moved by the people and things around him.

He is an Indian, but he is a citizen of the United States, and he is engaged in satellite launches for NASA. The United States, a country that has developed rapidly on its own, has no long tradition and history, but it has become the richest man in the world. In contrast, India, one world and one earth.

Because he wanted to go back to India to look for his early domestic servant, he returned to an extremely backward village in India. There he met a childhood girl, who was also a self-reliant, self-respectful, and advanced thinking woman, although she came from a backward area. , But when I went to college, I went back to teach in this village and poured my hopes on the children.

In India, he felt the horror of backward thinking, the suffering of poverty, and the people's life in dire straits. He helped the villagers connect with electricity in the village and persuaded the adults to let their children go to school. He changed the tradition of a village’s ignorance. He made me feel deeply. I am deeply moved by how great the power of knowledge is, how charming men with knowledge are, and men who launch satellites are even more unstoppable.

After returning to the United States, he still couldn't let go of his country, although he had a comfortable life, high-level treatment, and success in the United States. After the successful launch of the satellite, he resolutely resigned and returned to his motherland, hoping to carry out a revolution on his own and change the poverty and backwardness of the motherland.

There are two kinds of ignorant Chinese. One often complains about the inefficiency and inefficiency of their national government, and they resign themselves to fate; the other clings to the so-called tradition and culture, and regards it as the imperative of heaven.

Many topics in the film are very sharp and hit the nail on the head. India is really a brave country. Although he is backward, the people love their land and family deeply. This is its greatness and its national spirit.

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.
