Punjabi Cinema, Is it going in right direction ? Do we need more superstars like Diljit Dosanjh and Gippy Grewal ????


Jatt and Juliet 2 was grand success in the short success story of Punjabi Cinema. One thing that comes into mind is that after series of successes like Carry on Jatta, Jatt and Juliet, Singh Vs Kaur and Jatt n Juliet part 2, are we going to witness this for long time ? The punjabi audience just likes entertainment, with what we have witnesed. We have to carefully examine that will punjabi audience relish serious genre apart from comedies. If punjabi audience appreciates serious genres like comedies , then only we can say that Punjabi cinema is on right path. For successful cinema, we need variety. Comedies alone won't do good for punjabi cinema. Comedy stuff has been a boon for punjabi story , which badly needed financial impetus for long time. South Indian producer Rama Naidu has already produced successful movie like Singh vs Kaur, Akshay Kumar is going to produce one (Bhaji in problem). There is long queue of actors now like Diljit, Gippy Grewal, Neeru Bajwa, Surveen Chawla, Jimmy Shergill, Gudas Mann,Harbhajan Mann, Mandy Thakar, Amrinder gill, B N Sharma, Binnu Dhillon,Jaswinder Bhalla and Upasana Singh.Although we have long list of actors in Punjabi cinema now, but we still need plenty, especially those who come directly from theatres. We would like Punjabi cinema to flourish, it gives entertainment to several, employment to so many and it helps in retaining tradition of Punjab. So, we realy want it to suceed, for that to happen Punjabi Audience and Punajbi Cinema have to appreciate every type of Genre.

Modi Wave in India ????


Moditva, Namo Namo, Brand Modi, all these terms signify that Modi has become popular name in Indian Households. People are paying for his rallies, 7 lakh approx people attended Kanpur rally. Several lakhs attended Delhi, Hyderabad, truchy rallies. So the question is will this turn into votes. We have seen Indira gandhi, Atal Bihari Vajpayee political gatherings, if they turned into mandate, why can't this be a mandate. Bjp seems to be doing well in Rajasthan, MP, Chattisgarh , Gujrat and Maharasthra. It needs to somehow get thackrey brothers together to sweep Maharasthra, it has to get Naidu to get good share in Andhra , it needs to get Jayalalitha's support in Tamil Nadu to get some sats in south. Yeddurappa can help it in karnatka and so can Navin Patnaik in Orissa. So good alliance management can do wonders for BJP, in the era of Coalition. Whoever does coalition better has best chance of forming government at centre. We will have to carefully examine 4 states results, then only we will be able to predict which way this election might go. One thing is for sure that Development is going to be key issue in this election, which is good for any country. Another good thing which is going to happen is  that there will be fight between young leaders (Modi vs Rahul), so India is going US, France way. Even Pakistan's prime ministers are younger in comparision to India. For a country which has so many young voters, young face is very important, so that he/she be called as true represenative of people.... One very impotanat point to be noted and always concerns me  is that most of the educated youth are residing outside their state. They won't come to their states for voting alone, there should be some system in place for recording votes of those people. This can't happen that majority of educated youth are not able to cast their votes due to their employment in outside states. Election commission must make an arrangement for these voters like they have done for armymen.
