The real Alaudin- Khilji - Page 13

To clarify, this "real" Khilji pic is a 20th century artist's imagination, used for a school textbook. Ranveer's Khilji is similarly a 21st century director's imagination. Different medium, different interpretation. There is no picture from the relevant time period to refer to for accuracy.

The guts these terrorist sympathiesers show on india forums Is applaud worthy though. The beast who killed thousands of innocents, ransacked our land is being celebrated here on our own INDIA forums and people are being mute spectators letting them spread their filth unchallenged and those who dare to argue reasonably are being called bigots.

Can someone dare to ask these Islamic faggots to f**k off the INDIA forums? We've tolerated them enough for centuries. NOT ANYMORE.

Pardon me I am like so mad today don't know why😆

BW Forum can turn everything into religious debate. Bas kar lo bhai. Aap kisi ki bhi soch nahi badal rahe. Everything and everyone are gonna be same even if this thread reaches 50 pages. 😆

Lekin yeh aaj kal ki generation. Villain ki deewani ban gai hai. Hamare jamane mein villain - villain hota tha. Aur Hero - hero. Hum yeh ulta pulti nahi karte the.

PS -- Can't believe I am feeling like an old generation already.

All kings were brutal & ruthless. If you were not, you didn't I survive. As illustrated by many Rajput kings. The fact of the matter is that viewing these stories from a modern eye, does no-one any good. What is more bothersome is the constant chanting of glorification of a certain caste & the Islamophobia that the film is peddling, along with the depiction of Khilji as an evil ruler, while juxtaposing him with the saintly, "white" Hindu ruler- Its also as reductionist & boring, as it can get.

I wish everything had been more subtle & RS' Khilji was more restrained. He just looks extremely silly jumping about in the trailer. While he had many concubines & wives, so did all the other rulers, including Rawal Ratan Singh, irrespective of religion, all rulers & noblemen did. It was not only a sign of high-status & wealth, that they could have the fiscal resources to maintain such large harems, but also a matter of practicality- Fertile women meant chances of producing more male heirs that could ascend to the throne & carry on the king's lineage. I see nothing wrong with it however repulsive I find it, because I do not judge that era from my value-system.


What annoys me also, is how unkept, unruly & vulgar Khilji has been purposely shown as when he was ANYTHING BUT! AFAIR, he also had a Hindu wife, Kamala Devi, which was to be portrayed by ARH & must've been changed to Meherunnisa to keep the crazy fundamentalists away. I wish we could see that relationship because from the snippets history shows us, it seemed like a genuinely loving & deep relationship where Khilji sent part of his army to find her long-lost daughter & she herself seemed fascinating- Shrewd, intelligent, beautiful & didn't commit Jauhar & went against the norm to live with a Muslim ruler who subjugated her Hindu king-husband & soon became Khilji's favourite queen!

I've had my morality and upbringing questioned. So what gives?

If someone says I support terrorism or violence, that doesn't make it true. Its a stupid f**king forum in the end. It's not as if the NYT headlines is naming me a terrorist.

I understand your point of view. IMO locked threads are the worst though. Its better off that people express themselves rather than bottle up resentment.

There have been movies made on Stalin, hitler, duke of Milan even glorified and parodied them no reaction from the West that you get in S.Asia.

Really unfortunate that a factual discussion has taken this turn.
