Not because I have fallen for the protagonist, this post is meant for something else. Just yesterday I saw someone make a post out there, " when there's so much to be sad about in the society, people are unnecessarily hyping on a baseless movie." Thank you whoever for such a post. Because the post gave me the opportunity to differ slightly.
What are we living for? To find reasons to be sad? Or find happiness in small things? Honestly for me it's the later. But for some, the ideology is different. For them, people should focus on the sadness of the society and work for their eradication only. To them my question is, when a movie drives you to a beautiful world of fantasy, doesn't it eradicate sadness for the moment? Well I maybe wrong.
Regarding the uselessness of the movie. The movie has created a lot more jobs, curiosities and reverence about Indian cinemas in global platform than the so called 'useful' ones. Really useless? Ehh?
Regarding the lack of messages from a movie. I've got a grave one. However great you are, your dearest one will back stab you. Doesn't really mean, you will stop being great. A very little of a message?
Regarding overdramatisation. If a movie's vast frames and fantasies drive you off to blue skies and pink waves for just two and a half hours of your life, is it really worth condemnation being overdramatic?
And lastly regarding not everyone being able to reach the movies, I have seen the complete family of our maid go for the movie. Doesn't their money count? Couldn't they satisfactorily buy happiness through an en masse entertainer?
Still condemn Bahubali 2 : The Conclusion? You're welcome. Because you know what? It's easy to judge. Ain't easy to reach the height you are judging.
PS : The first movie to make a 1000 crore mark without a Khan, without some overrated sex and antisocials. Is Jealousy working?

This post isn't intended to hurt any fan base.

whole life is meaningless..i do not even know why we are alive..
why we breathe..why we die..in a way life is pointless yet we live..
yet we hope..yet we wish to stay alive another day knowing well one day
death will embrace us..yet we strive for success wealth ..even when we know
we will one day turn to ashes still we go to school college..why so?
coz its the only natural thing to do..
being human we are surrounded by tons of problems in real life..
be it exams jobs..or financial or health problems..
any good movie gives us an opportunity to escape this harsh reality..
be it even for 3hrs..
Bahubali is one such entertainer which takes us far away from our
worries n miseries in life..better than consuming alcohol n other toxic
substance i feel its better we indulge in films like Bahubali even if
it is called baseless by intellectuals/critics..
plus only that money which is never in circulation is under lock n key or
under the bed is a waste..any money which is in circulation is always
of great utility..as one man benefits n in the chain of reaction when he or she spends
others benefits too..so Bahubali is nt a wastage..imo.

Excellent post

The film also taught us all that we see in front of our eyes is not the truth ( Shivagami Bhallal Kumar )
We should always speak for truth and justice even if we are at a disadvantage ( Devasena in court )
We should always choose Dharam and duty over personal relatons ( Amarendra )

I think bottomline is different people look for different things in life. If a person is saying something, it's just his view of life shaped by the path he has walked in life and the view he can see now... We can never really make anyone see through anybody else's eyes, that is for sure :) No one's right, no one's wrong.. we can only have respect for each other's views.

" when there's so much to be sad about in the society, people are unnecessarily hyping on a baseless movie."

In our family we are undergoing a health crisis of a beloved member. The power of movies and music to cope with hard times, to make memories, to bond has been eye opening.

Baseless?In that case all movies except for biopics are baseless. Even they have some portions that are fictious to make them interesting. I for one prefer a movie that makes me forget my real life issues for two and half hours. Yes, there are many issues in real world but life goes on . To believe one shouldn't enjoy some fiction ,may be possible for a selfless altruist, I am just a cynic.

isn't ipl baseless too?
why wasting crores to buy players sale tickets?
we should all huddle together n cry instead for all the
sadness around us..poverty injustice n all..
all the previous movies that made box office records did nt
remind anyone of the sadness in life?just Bahubalis 100o cr
is glaring hard n reminding that we should stop celebrating life
n weep in a corner?😕

@ JustMoi- Yes,music does has some power.I met one of my aunt after years and she was telling about her son ( 16 year old, Autistic). His conversation is always in single word. He never talks in sentences.But what surprises her is ,he is capable of singing songs continuously. And whenever my aunt asks him to switch channels ( to watch channels meant for kids) ,he doesn't like it and always watches Music channels.

Why care about such people, yaar. In India, people oppose satellite lauch becoz of pollution.
And with every launch some one will also say why are we wasting money on these satelites. Why not use this money to eliminate poverty etc. These kind of people will exist. It's their opinion. U cant stop or change their opinion.


Or waise bhi hum 24 ghante poverty ke bare me sochte rahe toh poor ho rah jayenge.
