After listening to Professor Qian Wenzhong's "Xuanzang's Journey to the West" and "Mysterious Ancient India", I became fascinated by ancient India, so I listened to "History of India", and then I saw the Indian drama "Baahubali", everything seemed to be the same. is just right.

Look at the royal family surrounded by incense powder and flowers on the street, look at the group of elephants or attack the enemy line or bow down to salute, look at the swaying graceful figure of Lord Shiva, look at the resolute, brave, loyal and affectionate prince, look at the beautiful, agile and soft The princess of Yigang, looking at the devotion, worship and expectation of the common people to the prince and god, seems to see the fairy tale of "Ramayana" unfolding slowly in front of her eyes through thousands of years. I believe) the time tunnel built by, is wrapped in a thick mixture of flowers, fragrant powder, spices, body odor, blood, rotting, rust, etc. The smell is blowing to the face, in "Little Lolita's Uncle Monkey", to Hanu In the sacrificial ceremony of the God of Man, among the caste people with the same rank, in the faithful and eager eyes of the "believers" who are similar to the Tibetan gods, they transcend time, space, ethnicity, caste, history books like piles of old papers, and historians. The sharp or ambiguous tip of the pen has been passed down through word of mouth to this day. In this sense, it seems understandable why India's history-recording tradition is extremely weak, because their unchanging belief in and worship of the divinely gifted person has always flowed in their minds along with those legends and myths, and at the appropriate time The time, the right place, projected onto the right chosen person.

Even at the height of mythology, even with special effects, muscles, and gorgeousness, it can still point directly to the heart and warm the moment. This should be the shock and reflection brought by contemporary Indian films.
