some rich men came and raped the land,
nobody caught ‘em
put up a bunch of ugly boxes, and Jesus,
people bought ‘em
and they called it paradise
the place to be
they watched the hazy sun, sinking in the sea
you can leave it all behind
and sail to Lahaina
just like the missionaries did, so many years ago
they even brought a neon sign: “Jesus is coming”
brought the white man’s burden down
brought the white man’s reign
—–from “The Last Resort” by THE EAGLES
Aamir khan in the character of Mangal Pandey from the movie by the same name. The movie was based on the true story of this Indian patriot’s struggle against the British Empire. Here he stands in front of a mortar, ready to be blown away, but instead of kneeling in front of the Empire, he shouts “Jai Hind”… the Indian warcry for valor and his love for his country.
Aamir is the only mainstream actor i admire in Indian Cinema, perhaps because he is not scared to do things other actors will never do. Acting flows in his veins and talent overflows in his heart. Once i look upto the west and say “Oh yes, we have a match for you, … in fact we have a better one this time.”
