Movies are always just movies, can they only exist and imaginary worlds? You might say, "Don't take it seriously, the movie doesn't have any effect on reality". By chance, I watched an Indian TV talk show "Truth Interview" and was pleasantly surprised to find that Aamir Khan is also a hero in the real world. This is a program he conceived, directed and hosted. As he gave a sincere monologue in the opening title of the show: "On the one hand, India is rising and taking off to a new height, which makes me very happy, and I am very proud as an Indian. But there are also some sour facts in our society, and We turn a blind eye to the fact that these sufferings are deeply disturbing and it saddens me. Sometimes I wonder, why should I think about these things...what does it have to do with me? I live a decent and happy life , what does the suffering of others have to do with me, but it has something to do with it, I am also a part of this society, a series of things connect you and me with everyone in the society, every breath and every breath, experience resonance... "
His sense of justice, his courage, his determination and actions have ignited the spirit of "changing the world" like a fire, and I, a Chinese woman in a neighboring country, feel it. It ignited a little spark in my heart: "Do something to stop what's not supposed to happen in this world." Each of us lives in this society, each of us is a part of society, and we have a responsibility make it better. I think this kind of belief should be rooted in the hearts of most people, whether strong or weak, deep or shallow. Just because of the helplessness and limitations of reality, we gradually gave up this belief, and that little spark gradually dimmed until it went out. We become only concerned about ourselves, turning a blind eye to the bitterness and injustice that is happening around us.
Aamir Khan has set an example for us, a successful actor with such a strong sense of social responsibility. With his wisdom and courage, he picked up a scalpel - the media, pointed to the malignant tumor in society, analyzed and removed it. Every single one of our citizens in this world, no matter where you are or what you do, is given a right: to pursue justice, no matter how big or small, no matter how; to influence or change the world, at least from Do it yourself and keep the good side of the world.
Aamir Khan fully embodies his wisdom in this show.
In each talk show, he pointed out a serious social problem. Before the live broadcast of the show, he and his working group had done a lot of preparations, including sampling, surveys of different sizes, statistics, and interview. On the scene, he grasped the rhythm and atmosphere very well, and his wit and flexibility can be reflected everywhere. He guided the entire interview site in a very orderly and logical manner: from the point of the theme, and then like peeling an onion, he gradually analyzed the reasons until he approached or reached the essence of the problem, and then gave suggestions or solutions, and sometimes gave a successful examples that can be followed. At the end of the program, public participation is always encouraged through a combination of public opinion polls and fundraising. For some themes, just interviews are not enough to touch people's inner courage to act. At this time, art plays its role, and a just right live singing plays a role in rendering it to a climax.
Throughout the interview, he acted quite calmly and objectively, with no anger, no accusations or attacks, no cynicism or assertiveness, but his rich empathy, soft heart, and moist eyes, if at all. . As he confessed in the title, "I don't blame anyone, I don't slander anyone, and I don't restrict anyone... Now let's embark on a journey together, to find, discover, learn, share, and together To unravel the mysteries of these difficult problems.” It is impressive that, on the spot, he not only interviewed one by one directly interested parties, these interviewees told what really happened, he also interviewed experts in various fields and very sensitive positions Officials and experts help us interpret complex social phenomena, discover and analyze the real root cause of the problem from multiple perspectives and angles; the dialogue with the official shows the audience the courage and determination of the program team to solve the problem; when giving advice Or the method or even the example of success conveys confidence and hope to the audience. . .
To give an example, the reputation of the police is notorious in India. When deeply digging into and analyzing why the police's behavior is so bad and no different from hooligans, the program team analyzed it from many aspects: the malignant tumor left over from the British colonial period. The general internal system of the police is one reason, the poor working funds of the police and the poor living conditions are one reason. Similarly, experts have given a psychological analysis: under the harsh external environment and people's psychological refraction of the police How the police mind has evolved. We can see that the entire analysis is based on a very rigorous and scientific attitude, and the program team leads us step by step to get closer and closer to the essence of the problem. . .
I was in India as a tourist and I was placed in a completely different situation, experiencing another behavior, different religious influences, different customs, I was attracted by the friendliness, gentleness and intensity of the Indians at the same time I was curious Their thoughts, I wandered around, wandering in the bustling downtown of the city, the calm and lonely places, the ordinary streets, the temples that were always lively, wandering in the backcountry of rural India, I wandered while observing the things and people around me, I thought about India, I want to know more.
Thanks for this talk show that gave me the opportunity to learn a lot about India, India in real society. This talk show covers many social issues, such as the custom of high dowry, the phenomenon of female abortion, child sexual abuse, frequent rape incidents, the police system, the medical system, and the caste system.
Through this interview, I captured universal human emotions. For example, when a very handsome and quiet young man recounted his unfortunate childhood sexual assault experience, he said that when he had the courage to take what happened to him After telling his mother what happened, his mother almost pretended not to understand, she was not on his side, he felt abandoned by the whole world, after each violation, he hid in the corner, as if the dog understood him, ran Come and lick him, soothe him, only the dog is his companion.
I got the wisdom of Indians, for example, an 85-year-old highly respected judge, when the show crew visited him and asked him to introduce himself, he started in an unusual way: "I hate to do Introduce myself, they are just labels, my first label is a ** judge, my second label is a Brahmin, and my third label is a ** medal awarded by the government..., I was too much I was so overwhelmed with labels that I couldn't find myself... Gandhi used to put his hand on my shoulder every few steps, and I felt its weight."
I was inspired to be a successful one Cases or deeds are presented, for example, in a medical issue, a successful case was presented where an MD successfully ran a hospital by charging each townsman about 10 rupees per month and the size The effect achieves low operating costs and profitability. The story of how a low-caste girl finally became a Sanskrit professor at Delhi University after experiencing all kinds of discrimination and abuse with the encouragement of her father.
I resonate when I hear each client narrating their own stories and voices, such as a girl who refused a high dowry and said loudly when she rejected the unreasonable demands of her future husband's family: "This is my body, I know how to do it. Wear clothes to show my beauty."
I also experienced the Indian temperament, if I can sum it up, it is: gentleness, tolerance, patience, compassion.
This talk show is not an entertainment show, but a social change that has swept through all strata of Indian society like a violent storm, but upholds the spirit of "non-violence". It awakens every citizen's sense of social responsibility and participation, it throws problems into the public eye and openly and actively discusses solutions, it shows people's determination and courage to solve problems, and it puts pressure on the current government.
Recently I heard some good news from India, for example, small-scale fees are imposed on street vendors to ensure a stable environment for vendors to operate, fight against marriage robberies, convict rapists and so on. I think the generation of all these measures must be directly or indirectly related to this show.
Perhaps it is the unique tolerance of Indians, which contains and accommodates the filth and dirt in society. Indians do not lack courage and sense of responsibility, and it is precisely because of their unique spirit of forgiveness, patience and gentle disposition that this country can turn to the right path and develop healthily under the correct guidance. Or in a sense, India is the hope of the world. . .
