<span class=normal>Politics - Old wine packed in a new bottle<BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>This question expects me to be defensive! Anyway... Not only is the story contemporary, but even its treatment - the characterization, the relationships, the politics - all these reflect todays values and experience. Moreover, I havent come across a plot like this in earlier films that dealt with political subjects. Both of us have tried to make sure that the script has a fresh flavour and has a resonance of todays ground reality. So no, I wouldnt agree that it is old wine in a new bottle.<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Politically correct or incorrect <BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>That cannot be a consideration while writing a film like this. You see, the aim is discover a story of interesting people and their relationships amidst all this political jostling and tell that in an impactful way. If you arent judgemental in telling a story, then being politically correct or incorrect is hardly an issue. All you have to do is to create fictional characters in this milieu and then merely observe how they respond to their situation, and capture that in as engaging a way as you can. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Research<BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>We had a single source of information and research: Prakash Jha.
