As someone who has been in India for 4 months and will continue to stay for more than a month, I have to say that the India shown in this movie is quite real and objective! It spreads among our colleagues very fast! Everyone sighed after reading it: Haha, this is India!
Without any sentimentality, India is a mysterious country with unique culture, customs and living habits. Although due to historical culture or life attitude issues, many Asians and Europeans are saying: India is too dirty and India is too backward. , Indians are too lazy, but these reasons are not enough to kill India with a stick, as reflected in the movie, when you truly integrate into the life of this country, then its beautiful side will also emerge.
When I arrived at Delhi Airport in India in the early morning, it was like Todd arrived in Mumbai on the first day: the noisy streets outside the airport, the crowd of taxis and tug drivers, the dark Indians. . . But when I walked out of Delhi Airport for the second and third time, I gradually discovered, hey, this airport is not that bad. Although there are many people, there is no need to worry about thieves and robberies; although the driver surrounds you and asks where you are going , But in fact, taxis are prepaid, so you don’t have to worry about being slaughtered by the driver. In chaotic traffic and noisy streets, you rarely see serious car accidents and casualties. (Of course, Indians do drive faster, so their cars Basically, there are small scratches on the board, but it will not hit people violently). . .
The Holi festival ("holy") in the film, in March or April every year, I regret that I did not catch up, but my colleague told me that you really don’t wear clean and expensive clothes to go out that day, because you can’t hide. Anyone can sprinkle powders of various colors on the fallen ones. Children throw water bags with paint on the roof of the building, and then you can go back to the office and cry, ha ha.
As for the food in India, the sanitary environment is indeed poor, and I have had diarrhea, but in fact, Indian food still has a lot of delicious things, and the sanitary conditions of regular restaurants are not scary. Since we are in another country, So why not learn to adapt to this country?
I think this is the focus of this movie.
Of course, the film also reflects the arrogance of the Indians, and it also gives the Indians a lot of face. For example, when the heroine heard Todd said that Americans did not want to find that the "call center" was outsourced, she said that it was because the goods were all "made in China", which meant that "the word outsourcing was ruined by Chinese manufacturing." , Instead of us Indians.” Later, the boss moved the call center to Shanghai. The reason was that the cost of Shanghai, China was lower, and the Indians also became the new call center managers. I don’t think everyone has these details. Will you agree?
But in general, the flaws are not concealed. This film still faithfully restores the life and culture of India. It makes those of us who are in India feel very empathetic. If you want to understand the real India, then take a look at this movie. !
