JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) AN ASPECT OF CERTIFICATION OF FILMS IN INDIA Film is a popular mass communication media and has been a policy
to encourage the concern as an Industry. Cinema, theatres, televisions,
Videos etc. are now necessary entertainments everywhere. Increase of
population in urban areas has caused paucity of places for recreation and
cinema -going has become a necessity in busy human lives. Television and
video being common luxuries beyond the reach of an average, film -going
has become indispensable for the people. Screen image has been the
patronage of courage and sacrifice reflecting the morales in the society.
It is also the national image (partly) in the international field. It
usefulness has not only been considered for commercial purposes as an
'Industry', but also to maintain at as a 'mass -communication -media'.
(2.) TILL sixties the films concentrated on the theme of patriotic dedications, old and new, and some times confined to expose the
situational and occupational evils of society. During seventies, the
films concentrated mostly on crimes like murder, dacoity, robbery on
crimes like murder, dacoity, robbery, rape committed by villian or the
hero added with affray, fighting, eve -teasing, romance etc. culminating
with punishment or repentance. The era showed a marked increase in market
and interest of cine goers for such films. The continuing era of eighties
has shown a tendency to image the break down of the machinery of State in
enforcing its laws and maintaining an orderly society. The present trend
of individualization by victimization of heroes facing crisis out of the
way by impeaching the rule of law has brought us to the present terrorist
order. It has not only harped at the system of legislative representation
but also the ineffectiveness of the law and its enforcing agencies on
obvious grounds.
I had the occasion of seeing some such very artistic films. In AAJ KA M.L.A, blame is thrown on the irresponsible electroates in
electing rustic, and disgrunted persons, who after getting elected,
struggled only for power and exposed themselves unsuitable to run the
representative government.
(3.) IN ARDHA SATYA, the dutiful, honest police officer was prevented from discharging his lawful duties by his superior officers and hooligan
politicians. He was scandelised due to his loyalty for duty and obedience
to authority. He was trapped and doomed by them to such an extent that he
lost faith and confidence in law and law enforcing agencies. Re proceeded
even to the extent of committing murder to quench his unsatisfied
vengeance. This (theme) indicates and incites public unrest.;
