For want of any standardised legal avenue to contribute big amounts to party coffers, more and more parties are banking on the hawala channel for donations. This does not augur well for Indian politics. I especially liked the piece on Dasarath Manjhi. There are few people I have read about who have gone about doing something as expansive in scale as he has done, singlehandedly. As a nation, even in real life, we always want to play safe.
Nobody wants to take risks.
If they did things would change for the better. Status quo is safer. It is less disturbing. And cinema is only a manifestation of what we think and feel, so the directors ask the disturbing questions but play safe when it comes to the harsh but true answers. But going by the prevailing level of corruption one cannot be sure if even this step will help in solving the problem.
