"  The Road not Taken "

By : Robert Frost ( 1874 - 1963)

*  Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
  And sorry I could not travel both
  And be one traveler, long I stood
  And looked down one as far as I could
  To where it bent in the undergrowth;

*  Then took the other , as just as fair ,
  And having perhaps the better claim,
  Because it was grassy and wanted
    Wear;
  Though as for that the passing there
  Had worn them really about the same,

* And both that morning equally lay
   In leaves no step had trodden black.
   Oh, I kept the first for another day!
   Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
   I doubted if I should ever come back.

* I shall be telling this with a sigh
   Somewhere ages and ages hence:
   Two roads diverged in a wood , and I_
    I took the one less traveled by,
  And taht has made all the difference.

My favourite movie

                   My favourite movie

       

                       Ki & ka

               Director - R. Balki

                   Producer - R.Balki 

                  Written by - R.Balki

              Starring - Kareena Kapoor

                              Arjun Kapoor

 *  The movie ki & ka is a very strong attack on " Indian mind set" or we can say " Hinduism" about the role of man and woman in marriage and in society.

* This is romantic comedy - drama film.the very first scene of movie is an effective satire , where kia ( Kareena) speaks about the role of woman in patriarchal society , in which Man is equal to success and women is all about helping hand and support for husband to achieve his success . Kia defines role of women by calling her" pillar" which supports building, and also added that everyone remember building not the pillar.same story we have in our cultur, successful man is very well know but his wife is just like a piece of decoration in house .

* This is the reality of our society and culture. People used to give credit to wife Of a successful man for being his Support system , but what is in that credit ? Is it morally good to do such flattery things?

* Ki & ka has changed the role of man and woman , kabeer is house husband and supports his wife to fulfil her dream of becoming a successful business woman but at some extent the plot has diverted from the tract as we can see in the scenes where Kia is abusing Kabeer because he is not earning, we can feel power structure that power of earning member on non - earning one.

* As a poststructuralist critic, we look at the movie we would find that the concept of movie looks like in support of woman , but it is totally about man , like man can be prove themselves perfect in every role , while woman is always about jealousy , hatred , short tempered and sensitive .

* As emotion does not follow gender the important part in movie is emotion of jealousy.if we take an example that a very successful man is continuously surrounded by the praising of his wife which is " house - wife",he would Fell jealousy and his ego would definitely hurt , the same thing has been happened with Kia , as she was so jealous with her husband who became famous by giving speeches rather than working hard like her, and she abandon him and abused a lot .

* The good use of archetypes is specialty of R.Balki , in such scenes like Kabeer feels jealousy there is a use of water with the help of dancing fountain , storng flow of water suggests fall. Another is the scene of quarrel between Kia and Kabeer where Kia is one by one coming down from staircase, as she is coming down from her moral level.

* The movie has a very strong issue of society , gender difference , inequality and rigid mindset of Indian society in which woman is so much neglected. As far as feminism is concern, the movie would not get such appreciation by feminists, because of the projection of a role of wife as Kabeer,as in most of the scene Kabeer is cooking , enjoying in Kitty parties , and shopping , this has been projected as the work of woman, and Mangal - sutra is shown as a symbol of wife which is not so good idea .

* The definition of wife is given by Kia, as she calls Kabeer " wife", which is not appropriate. The main point is, centre of the attraction in movie is Kabir ( Arjun Kapoor) as a house husband rather than Kia as a working woman.
