SRK's best work where he could shine as an "actor". He should have won a National award for this. The scene of SRK sitting in train and observing a boy selling water still brings me to tears. Why this movie was flop is also the reason why movies like this are not made and stars are not able to try "acting" for a change.

It's hard to imagine SRK has been in Industry for 30+ Years and still didn't get a Single National Award for best actor.. Instead of SRK they gave Saif Ali Khan national award for Hum Tum (his mother was part of jury) that year..SRK didn't even get national award for movies like My Name is Khan & Chak De India ..What a waste of national award

What a review/revisit, hats off. Swades is so close to my heart and what I appreciate especially about it is that it is the best patriotic movie ever made and it does it while not put down another country or fighting any war. Hell, I'm not even Indian and I felt empowered to fight for the country. Again, amazing job on the review, talked about literally every aspect of the movie. Shame that people didn't recognize it when the movie came out, but at least we cinephiles can discuss it.

@Indicfilm6 ай бұрын
The beauty of Swades is that it has multiple iconic scenes to encapsulate its magic. the train scene did cross my mind, but felt it would be unjust to cut and edit the clip further to adjust for a quick intro, the impact would be lost. it does summarize the film's soul, but what's the point of me making this video if I had to just communicate it with a scene, it's already available on KZbin.😅

The hardest part is restraining myself from watching this movie every now and then, so that I don't loose that ethereal moments which this piece of art gives me. And also I'm glad that I am seeing this movie after being old enough to understand all the underlying notes it portrays. Many movies may come n go, but Swades stays on the top classic tier. And about ARR, it feels like every BGM in this movie seems to skip my ears and directly listened by heart yes I understand certain music sequence especially that one romantic depiction on that abruptly starts somewhere in the middle of the movie. Coming to those Haridas scene and the train sequence, those imagery was etched in my soul y'all. And I confirm that those realities shows had implied certain morals and perspectives in me for ever. Happy to have been born to this timeline of existance.

@Indicfilm6 ай бұрын
What you just described is by and large the definition of a cult classic, but I get what you meant there. I agree with you about the songs placement. but realistically, I don't think a brisk pacing would have helped the film better at the box office. given the trends, and taste of the audience back then.

@@Indicfilm Isn't cult classic something that has an ardent fanbase but it is generally not liked by everyone? Cult is generally reserved for a sub section of a community or a society right?
@Indicfilm6 ай бұрын
@@akashreddy2928 Right, the term 'Cult classic' stems from the phenomena of 'cult films' from '70s pop culture in the West, where 'suppressed' or 'controversial' films were kept alive by fan groups. typically these films are not entertained by the mainstream audience resulting in their demise at the box office, but are rediscovered much later and loved by dedicated/passionate fanbases over time. I referred to Swades as a 'cult classic' in the video as it perfectly encapsulates what happened to this film right from its release to now. (which was a flop then, and still isn't celebrated by the 'mainstream audience' barring film buffs and movie lovers) Here, I'm not referring to the word "cult" as a socially elusive religious group, etc. and my usage of 'cult classic' is not to implicate any negative connotations. Hope that helps. Anyway, have a good time!

It is often said that Bollywood doesn't make good movies, but it's totally opposite it's the audience who doesn't watches the good movies. This is why i think someone like Shahrukh Khan doesn't make these kind of movies rather he looks for masala entertainer which is what normal public likes. Another example is recent movie Rocketry SRK is in this movie also playing a cameo so I think it's the public who is not interested in sensible cinema

Movies like Swadesh are not meant to be blockbusters. They will never be. They are meant to be made,even if the movie gets failed. The producer has to spend money on it knowing that he'll not get all the money back. And when this will be possible? The other blockbuster movies which will bring money into the industry. Movies like Jawan are also needed for the industry to survive. To glorify parallel or arthouse movies, we don't necessarily need to bash commercial blockbusters. If we keep doing these, we'll meet the fate of Bengali Film Industry that produced great movies at past but now even superstars are kind of struggling there to make it bigger. Reason is same as I have mentioned.
@Indicfilm6 ай бұрын
Hi Pratik, Thanks for the comment. Interesting analysis, But I'd like to respectfully disagree for these reasons: 12TH fail (Hindi) Andhadhun (Hindi) Garuda gamana vrishabha vahana (Kannada) Balagam (Telugu) The Kashmir files (Hindi) Pelli choopulu (Telugu) 96 (Tamil) Sairat (Marathi) Haider (Hindi) Kantara (Kannada) 777 Charlie (Kannada) Paan Singh Tomar (Hindi) 2018 (Malayalam) This is a list of story-driven small-budget movies that became blockbusters/hits. they're all commercial films btw, and were made to get their money back. Swades is also a commercial film (backed by a studio, star lead cast) It too tried catering to the mass audience hence too many songs, and inconsistent pacing. Arthouse movies are typically independent films, catered specifically for niche audiences. India has a fair share of Indie movies, which are made aiming for a screening at international film festivals rather than theatrical success. I'm not against commercial cinema, I love them in fact (RRR, Jawan, Animal). but I don't advocate mind-numbingly mass movies, which lack in terms of writing, acting, and direction. too much commercialization with minimal effort leads to mediocre films, like in the case of most Telugu movies now (and I'm a Telugu guy).

According to reports, the 2003 Kannada film Chigurida Kanasu, which was based on the book of the same name by Jnanapith Awardee K. Shivaram Karanth and Bapu Kuti by Rajni Bakshi, served as the inspiration for the plot in which the lead character establishes a microhydroelectric project to produce electricity.
