In a cricket-obsessed nation, who could have foreseen that a hockey film would become the quintessential sports drama, addressing everything but the sport itself?
Seventeen years ago, Chak De India debuted with little fanfare, despite featuring a superstar and being backed by a major production house.
The film emerged as a unique and essential storyline for its audience.

This is a brilliant video. Loved the way each point has been put across, never seen the film in this way. That opening line of 'Risk taking breathes life into creativity' is amazingly written, I'm going to steal that, haha.
Please make more of such videos on iconic films.
Another high quality content!!
I wonder why the algorithm is not working in your favour??

Great analysis brother I think dangal was inspired
Nth runs I don't know because DvD player as no family budget to get the ANTENNA too after been broken kept running despite sleeping hours, rains, floods, even roof falling during lunch hours, winters, certain financial, family problems even other legal problems too, with place on rent due to legal problems, school fees, homework after practice, breaking lightbulb😂, punishment everything more than 2 years I guess from Morning to Night push the TV button and kept playing. Tears aren't enough for social change neither does radical tear do good as political social hierarchy will get it's hold even in the new regime after uprising so the thing remains are few pirated movies after democracy dies or censored and keeps going with cultural sensitization and a soothing hope that small 🕯️ in heart is what this movies ignite in laymen massé, a minimal criticality to start critical thinking as a citizen nothing for uprising but getting your own self better perfect like Sisyphus without suicidal pressure as you know the cost benefit analysis even with those self harm thoughts not on a Hindu sukha trip other are suffering worst and get sadist pleasure as we see today in a section of our society but a real perfection of mind like you do for any progression be it physical, science, sociology, meta analysis type management of n number of real medical stuff,etc. I mean that's how you synthesis the matter the syntax from all this verbal jargons in name of 56" and other Ideological battles a real life word to encapsulate the experience which we still haven't found as the film itself remains a mirror in 2024 with Racial slurs like "Chinese looking" "Non Veg" "English Gavar" "Gay ladki" "Choti Jeans" that might be harmful just on personal level just crushing emotional hear but to the other side it goes way far to lynching bulldozer justice even on genocidal level type far to crushing real heart in mother's womb physically by same samaj of viewers I hope they aren't watching such films or they might have but either sides in actual society structure. Bas basic sensitivity dede utna tha baki Cricket Nationalism is there to stay even the only Linguistics progress we made is stolen rugby spirits from south Africa to make IPL bugle sounds that our achievements since 1980s to 2020s no song no slogans no cheer no bugle the one came from commerical market ipl no team academics like division football have schools and field side by side no fan flags like borrusia does no colours 😢 that's what we the thug pradhan desh har din dharm ki rajneeti main dube made this sport and keeping merged with the same prejudice and discrimination shown in movies towards socio religious identities not normal and declaring "other" left and right, caste pe toh baat abhi pochi hi nahi cricket pe yahi mutton chate hain baller is our level after the hate spilled in either be Olympics or World Cup I show we haven't got the linguistic intellegence to even articulate what we are even doing apart then burden on humanizing the demeaning slurs for other identities we don't even have normal words for such identities yet baki toh duur ki baat hain as AI is coming the audio language is going less and image based text is the world as evident from the comment and earphones used to watch as in the public space language will still remain the most democratic space though democracy remains or not😂. Nice One ❤ Kitni baar rulao ge Bhai
