Hindostan

Society nowadays must open their eyes and embrace Hindi movies nowadays because Hindi films aren’t only about dancing anymore, but they are also trying to convey a message and creating awareness in 21^st century community.

In India itself, there are several film industry such as bollywood, tollywood and kollywood. bollywood's language is Urdu or Hindi while the language for tollywood and kollywood are telugu and Kannada respectively. Our society often being skeptical and assume that everything that comes from India is tamil. this typical mindset is deviantly wrong and should be changed.

Lately many Hindi films such as bajrangi bhaijaan, toilet ek prem katha, padman and taare zameen par had been released in order to nurture awareness to people, not only as bare entertainment. this message is parallel with Islamic concept of amar makruf nahi munkar. For example, bajrangi bhaijaan taught us to be sincere and honest no matter what happens through the character Pawan Kumar Chaturvedi starred by Salman Khan. Toilet Ek Prem Katha also emphasize about the importance of cleanliness when their culture is to defecate congregationally in early morning because in their home there is no toilet. They believe toilet is too dirty to be in their house. Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi praise this film as a cynical way to tease people for the Swachh bharat campaign of sanitary. Taare Zameen Par is all about a handicapped child trying to learn despite being isolated by the others, until a teacher come to teach the real meaning of life to them.

Hindi songs can be such a prayer or self-reflection upon Creator for us that shows about how weak us servants in front of Allah. for example the song Kun fayakun and Sajda. In this category, these songs are often called as Sufi songs. This is the meaning of Kun fayakun song :

Ho mujh pe karam sarkar tera

It would be Your generosity on me, My Lord

Araj tujhe kar de mujhe mujhse hi riha

I have a request, please release me from myself(my ego, my pride and my bonds)

Ab mujhko bhi ho deedar mera

I wish to meet the true self of mine

Kar de mujhe mujh se hi riha

Please release me from myself

Mujh se hi rihaaa...

Release me from myself

In Sajdaa song from My Name Is Khan also written about the superiority of god,

  Sajda tera sajda

I bow down to You

Din raen karoon

I do it day and night

Na hi chain karoon

Without taking a rest

Sajda tera sajda

I bow down to You

Lakh vaar karoon

I do it a million times

Meri jaan karoon

I do it, my beloved

Suggestion of movies that full with community messages such as Swades, rang de basanti, Lagaan, PK that are considered as non-masala films. We have to realize that the world has evolved. Hindustani movies aren’t like before anymore. Nowadays, there are even movies that didn’t have a single song such as Ittefaq and Drishyam. Song or dance aren’t important, what’s vital is the message that they are trying to convey for us audience to digest as well as entertainment for us to embrace.
