An interesting interpretation of the finer aspects by Ganaraj about the subtle detail in #KashmirFiles that most of you may have missed.
Mithun Chakraborty’s name is BRAHMA Dutt. Puneet Issar’s name is HARI Narain and Atul Srivastava is VISHNU Ram. Finally, Prakash Belawadi is MAHESH Kumar.
Brahma Dutt represents the Government. Hari Narain represents the Police or Law and Order. And finally, Vishnu Ram represents the Press of India. The movie shows – in very clear terms the inactions or helplessness of these institutions while the atrocities were happening.
Finally the movie depicts the fight between two narratives. On one side you have Radhika Menon (Pallavi Joshi) and Bitta Karate (Chinmay Mandlekar). On other side you have the Trimurti’s and Pushkar Nath (Anupam Kher).
Question is what are they fighting about? And what for?
In simple terms, they are fighting for the attention of Krishna (Darshan Kumaar). Krishna in this movie represents the youth of India. And finally Krishna makes a speech.
We know that whoever has Krishna on their side, will have Dharma on their side – which is why both of them were fighting for Krishna. As stated in the last line of Bhagavat Gita.. Yatra Yogeśhvaraḥ Kṛiṣhṇo…
Who is Arjuna? It is you, the audience. Because at the end of it you are the Dhanurdharis. You have to decide whether you want to stand up to Adharma or not.
Finally, what did we lose in this whole genocide? Sharada (Bhasha Sumbli) – in other words knowledge or Saraswati. Kashmir and the Kashmiri Pandits who held the seat of our Knowledge for milleniums has been mūrdëred.
I think this subtle meta detail is the genius in this movie. Thank you Vivek Agnihotri . I wanted the world to recognise this.
