Ambedkar's India

Ambedkar's India

            - Dr. B. R. Ambedkar

Ambedkar's India is a collection of three of B.R. Ambedkar's most prominent speeches on caste and the Indian Constitution. 

'The Grammar Of Anarchy'  reflects how diverse this country is, what Dr. Ambedkar wanted for the people of this country, how far sighted he was and tells us how difficult it was to implement the constitution. Well, we clearly see how it's being tampered with these days; 

Courtesy: The ruling party,

So I think I understand what he meant.

'Annihilation Of Caste', B.R. Ambedkar's most famous speech which brings out how caste system in India works and how deep rooted it is in our culture. He even goes on to criticize Hinduism and takes a dig at the religious texts which he feels are male centric suppress the voices of the female counterparts.

'Castes In India: Their Mechanism, Genesis And Development' which I felt is an eye opener. Here, he shares his research about how caste is nothing but a product of endogamy and points out how and why it's problematic.

B.R. Ambedkar was Independent India's first Minister of Law and Justice and is more popularly remembered as the chief architect of the Constitution of India. He was a scholar with doctorates from Columbia University and London School of Economics. A well-known economist, jurist, politician and social reformer.

Dil Bechara ~ Riya Gohil (Winner)

 [This scene is inserted between scenes of speech of Kizie at church for Manny and final scene of movie display] “Manny! Manny! Manny utho !” Manny : Kya hua? Tum yaha itni raat ko? Sab thik hai na ? Kizie: Ha, ab utho aur taiyaar ho jao, hume jaana hai. Manny: kya? Abhi? Kaha ? Kizie: shh, CHALO. Raat ke 11 baje hai, Kizie Manny ke ghar jaati hai aur use taiyaar karke us jagah le jaati jaha usne Manny ko pehli baar kareeb se jaana tha. Ha, woh jagah, jaha Manny sirf Kizie ko le jata tha, wreckyard. Lekin aaj woh jagah kuch aur hi dastan bayaan karne wali thi. Kizie Manny ki aankho par patti bandh deti hai aur use sahara dete hue aage badhti hai. “Kizie, hum kaha ja rahe hai. Aur ye paati kyu? Kahi tum mera faayda to nahi uthaane wali?” “SHUT UP! Aur sabra rakho Immanuel Rajkumar Jr. ”  Jaise hi patti khulti hai, Manny ki aankhe Roshni se chamak uth ti hai. Charo aur us khander ko Dulhan ki tarah sajaaya jaata hai.

Anupamaa ~ Fatema Raja

 We want a character to relate to us, to prosper despite the flaws. The biggest blunder of this oh-so-famous TV serial is the protagonist- the 'perfect' Anupamaa(which to be honest is quite annoying). She's shown to be the best mother, best daughter, best wife, best daughter-in-law and ofc the best "Naari". But what if all of this was just a coax. What if she's overcompensating about something from her past? What if- Anupamaa did have an affair with Anuj during their college time. But owing to the family pressure she could not refuse marrying Vanraj. But as Anuj was her 'one true love' and so could not leave him. Two years passed and now Anuj got pissed and asked her to leave Vanraj and shift to America and continue their life there. But Anupamaa got pregnant and thus was forbidden to pursue her "career". Anuj now fed up with all the toxicity decides to leave without Anupamaa. He texts her, I am leaving now but we'll meet exactly after 26...
