Little Lori is not very cute ~

Indian cinema began at the end of the 19th century. In 1896, the lumiere brothers' films were screened for the first time in Mumbai. Over the next 10 years, foreign producers continued to bring in a variety of new films that were screened in Mumbai and other major cities in India. These screenings piqued the interest of some Indians in production, and Sadadah, based on the performances of two wrestlers and the training of monkeys, made two of India's first short films, and is hailed as a pioneer of Indian cinema. The movie I want to introduce today is also a work from India - "Love in Mumbai".

It is said that the film is based on true events. Born into a high-Hindu caste family in northern India, Sheka is a magazine researcher. At the beginning of the movie, he met the beautiful Muslim girl Bamo by chance. Indian women are born with a special kind of beauty, especially thick eyebrows and big eyes.

The two met and hated each other late and began a journey of romantic love. However, the dispute between Hinduism and Muslims as a minority has a long history, and the extreme religious stereotypes of both sides have led to constant friction. Both men's families were very forbidden to intermarry between pagans.

Sheka's father adamantly refused the two men's request to marry, while Bammo's father forced his daughter to marry another Young Muslim immediately in order to cut off his daughter's continued relationship with her lover. However, The flesh-and-blood youths, Sheka and Bammo, did not give in, and the two eloped to Mumbai, started a family, and started a new life. Six years have passed, and the Sheka couple, who already have a twin son, have enjoyed their lives, their relationship with their parents has improved, and the contradictions between the two families have gradually eased.

The good times did not last long, and the great unrest between the Hindus and Muslims that had been dull for a long time finally broke out in Mumbai, and the calm of their families made waves again.

When the controversy has caused ethnic tension, unrest and violence in Mumbai (and other parts of India). When their home was burned down by villains, the family and the children of the two parents and the father were killed separately. Sectarian, political, moral, chaotic. Hospitals, corpses and shelters were in a mess.

The family is finally reunited, just a scene of violence, which has already left an indelible scratch in the hearts of the children, and the breath of despair was on the verge of being as scheduled.

Roland said that love is a religion. I believe that most viewers will feel something after watching it, and many excellent film works carry profound social significance.

The first part of the film includes a large number of lyrical song and dance scenes, deliberately highlighting the relaxed, humorous, romantic atmosphere, while the latter part takes a sharp turn, full of violence, death and despair. Religion is a social ideology and cultural phenomenon, and as a cultural phenomenon, religion has a historical necessity, and society is running in progress.
