What an opera! (*spoiler alert*)


Don’t look for logical reason in Indian cinema. Why would Vikram save his father from being convicted of Somu’s murder by taking the blame on himself if he intended to let him have another massive heart-attack, collapse and die right there after an exchange of harsh words with him through the bars? And only in Indian movie a murder convict is kept in a fictitious place made of some doors and bunch of bars without any proper security guards around or surveillance where anybody can just walk in and meet him through. In the scene just before Somu’s murder, Vikram was seen to arrive at the place by car (he was driving). But after the incident he took fatally injured Somu to his home instead of driving him to the hospital quickly. All those people stood and watched the show to let him die there. Yeah, right! Remember the scene where Manisha giving Vikram a lecture in favor of Somu to soften him regarding Somu. Yeah, right. What an opera! Look at the court scenes, crime investigation scenes, prison scenes, police station scenes, look at the way they depict the official/legal procedures in Indian movies! Look at the horrible screenplay, too many plot-holes and poor editing. It’s probably because a major part of Indian population represents illiterate immature deprived suffered ignorant low-life individuals who are able to make a tawdry product superhit but are too dumb to even get a valid passport for themselves! When is India going to decide that it’s the time to grow up and learn some reality?
