Rooster kaun hai? 😆

And why only south then? Kitni saari movie industries hai India me..Telugu, tamil, malayalam, Kannada, marathi, bengali, bhojpuri, gujarati, punjabi, Assamese, odia, manipuri, even Nepali films..Most of them r thriving industries..

South ke liye hi soft corner kyun?

And if all r included people will accuse them of copying a classic like mile sur mera tumhara..

That song is a gem and forever etched in our memories..It included prominent people from many fields..Let it reign at its own place.

Agar koi apni samajh se kuch achha karne jaata hai to log usko neeche kheenchne me lag jaate hai..Aap khud apni koshish par gaur kijiye

Second class citizen: a person belonging to a social or political group whose rights and opportunities are inferior to those of the dominant group in a society

It is definitely like a second class citizen because non-Hindi speakers are being treated as inferior to Hindi speakers in this case.

They couldn't even get stars from the non-Hindi belt. 

it doesn't matter if they get stars from north or south, this is a song to tribute the soldiers that lost their lives in pulwama, there is no reason to dissect it, these stars are recognised all over india, so the song will have the reach that it needs 

How are they being treated inferior by releasing a song in Hindi?

i think wat ponymo is trying to say is that they will not be 'represented' in this song coz its in hindi, but tbh india has so many languages, and it wud be impossible to fit them all into one song, so i guess they chose the language that most indians speak and understand 

Because they cannot understand the song? None of the celebrities in the song are non-Hindi either.

Who is the tribute for? The security personnel who died and their families. And so many of them are non-Hindi speaking. Aren't you treating them as inferior just because they are not part of the "dominant Hindi group"?

@Ponymo..Can u change ur dp? I love Aish..She has such n angelic face..And is ever so nice

Thats what I am trying to ask him/ her- how does not being represented/ not being the target audience of a song equate to being treated as "inferior" or "second-class citizens"? I have repeated the point about maximizing reach of the song several times now but he/ she keeps acting like this is a personal affront against all other languages when it is not.

And zara, if you read my previous posts  on this thread you'll see that I agree that hindi being imposed on non-hindi speaking population is utterly wrong. However, I totally disagree with how ponymo is mingling an unrelated issue with this particular song and thats what I am arguing against.

So? Not understanding a song won't make a normal person feel inferior. If they had chosen to make this song in Bengali for e.g. I would not have felt inferior just because I don't happen to understand it.

I'm sure the family of the personnel are happy that their sacrifice is being acknowledged and respected, and not care about something so petty. And any artist who would dub different versions of the song would be heartily thanked as well. :)

Do u live in India? R u sure the families of those personnel don't understand Hindi? Will putting subtitles satisfy u?

So many Indians don't understand the English spoken in Hollywood movies..Why aren't only dubbed versions released here? Why do Hollywood movies get such a widespread release? Why do people on IF think Indian movies r dying since HW movies r taking over?

If u say irrelevant things u will be asked irrelevant questions
