Nandita's frantic attempts to interview Natha get worse when Rakesh does not find Natha or anyone else in Peepli to interview. She seems unimpressed with Rakesh's compassionate stand towards Natha and believes that as reporters their duty lies in reporting and following the news and nothing else. On the other hand, "Bharat Live" continues to be successful in their attempts to interview. Yet as time goes on, Natha does not die. Meanwhile, the Sammaan Party realise that if Natha commits suicide, they will lose the elections. The rural headmen secretly kidnap Natha and hold him ransom for money from the opposition. Yet their plans are foiled when Rakesh discovers Deepak and his men holding Natha hostage at a Peepli barn. A rush occurs when people from Apna Dal, the CPI, ITVN, Bharat Live and Peepli villagers all rush to find Natha. In the confusion, a spillage accident from a Petromax lamp sets fire to the barn, which explodes and Rakesh is killed. The Government officials mistake Rakesh for Natha and refuse to pay Natha's family the compensation money due to the death being an accident. Meanwhile, Natha is in fact alive and flees to Gurgaon and is seen working as a day labourer in the construction industry.

Peepli Live began as a script written by NDTV journalist Anusha Rizvi called The Fallen. In 2004 Rizvi asked Aamir Khan to read her script and, although he initially refused as he was preoccupied with shooting Mangal Pandey: The Rising, he eventually decided to finance the film after she described the plot to him.[7] In an interview, Khan explains the meaning of the movie title: "When we were looking for the right title before we began the publicity and promotions of the film, we came up with Peepli Live. Peepli is the village that film is set in, the "live" part is meant to indicate: here is a story that is happening in Peepli that the filmmaker is bringing to you live. That's why it's Peepli Live."[8] Peepli Live was filmed on various locations in Madhya Pradesh such as Bhopal, Indore, Tikamgarh, Khurai as well as in New Delhi. Maxima Basu designed the costumes aptly capturing the rural essence of the film. According to Aamir Khan, many of the actors are Adivasis from the sub-urban area of Bhopal, Bhadwai in Madhya Pradesh.[9] Other cast members are from playwright Habib Tanvir's theatre troupe Naya Theatre.[10]

Deepak: lf you look closely you 'll see Natha's footprints. Whether escape or abduction, here's where Natha perched himself for the last time. And here's the fruit of his toil, his faeces, commonly known as shit. Take a close look. Do not cringe at the sight, for, as long as we live, we will continue to shit. Psychiatrists claim that faeces reflect our mental state. The complexion of our shit is a window to the inner self. But here we see a mixture of hues. Therefore, before reaching any conclusions we need to bring in experts as Mr Natha was no ordinary man. For Bharat Live this is Kumar Deepak, live from Peepli.

Natha (Omkardas Manikpuri) is an indolent, pot-smoking farmer who lives in the small Indian town of Peepli. He is married to a domineering woman (Shalini Vatsa) who thinks he is a lazy, irresponsible bum. His bedridden mother (Farukh Jaffer) is always complaining. Unable to pay back his government loan, Natha and his brother Budhia (Raghubir Yadav) go for help to a powerful, greedy local politician who tells them that one of them should commit suicide so at least his family would be helped. Natha eventually vows to kill himself since there is no hope coming from anyone.

First-time Indian filmmaker Anusha Rizvi has fashioned a dark comedy about a serious problem in India that enables us to see the clash between the rich and powerful members of the ruling class (the politicians, bureaucrats, media establishment, and local bigwigs) who have no sympathy or understanding of the plight of the poor and downtrodden farmers who have lost their livelihoods in the name of national progress. Sound familiar? As both writer and director, Rizvi pulls out all-the-stops in this satisfying and searing satire.

Rizvi is a journalist as well as a filmmaker and told the Los Angeles Times last week that the movie "was inspired by real-life contemporary events: the economic shakeup of India's agrarian society and a horrifying wave of suicides by poor Indian farmers. According to government statistics ... 182,000 farmers took their own lives between 1997 and 2007. Additionally, between 1991 and 2001, 8 million Indians quit farming altogether."

Film Society director Joseph Consentino said, "With visceral immediacy, documentary director Greg Barker recreates the events of a day that shocked the world and will forever live in infamy. After a string of doomed relationships, Sergio de Mello was about to finally settle down with the woman he loved.

Peepli [Live] is a striking satire on the media-centric world we live in. Funny and sad at the same time, it's a film with a strong voice. The script is crisp and witty, the acting goes well with the rural and earthy feel of the film and does justice to the script.

A huge success in the intention being subtly but clearly placed for the audience to learn from, Peepli Live is a film I wish i had watched sooner. Anyone in touch with Indian Popular Media (especially in mid 2020) would agree that the symbolic exaggeration of the characters of news channels and the politicians hardly seem implausible. There are spaces for technical criticism in the film but the powerful elements overshadow them in delivering a great experience overall. The natural (and at times dark) comedy at intervals adds to the excellence of the film and it is so that a lot of writers can learn from. The film also often reminded me of Shyam Benegal's Villages and Characters which in itself plays a role in Indian Cinema as significant as Premchand in Hindi Literature. Peepli Live is a film that stays with you.

Very few art house films have drawn the mainstream audience and Peepli Live does what Ketan Mehta's Hero Hiralal (1988) or Aziz Mirza's Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani (2000) couldn't. Now, both these films were satires on the media coverage of an event (the suicide of a hero in Hero Hiralal and the live execution of a man who's possibly innocent) and in terms of structure and theme trod exactly the same territory Anusha Rizvi does. The films were largely inspired by other films made in the genre ( Switching Channels , Network , Dog Day Afternoon to name a few) but barely made an impact at the box office probably because they hit the market before it was ready to consume media-bashing. Despite Shah Rukh Khan's presence and marketing, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani sank because the media wasn't exactly cut-throat and sensationalist back then.

I liked "Peepli Live," which is colorful and at times quite lively, but I wish it were funnier and its satirical edge a bit sharper. It also takes too long to kick into high gear; the media frenzy doesn't begin until some 40 minutes into the movie, and when it does, Rizvi has so many characters to juggle she gets bogged down directing traffic. She also, like the media and politicians she satirizes, loses focus on Natha as a human being.

Notwithstanding the authentic picture of rural India depicted in Peepli Live, the film is clear that its rural protagonists and its Anglophone audience belong to completely different worlds. Though rich in satirical detail, the film is "humanist" rather than political, in that it is both non-committal and deceptive in its approach to rural indebtedness and in its treatment of the media. Peepli delivers the subliminal message that little can be done about rural indebtedness because its economic/political causes cannot be identified.

Thanks for this. There has been some criticism of the film with regard to the reason for farmers committing suicide. It is not for compensation but due to the bad policies of the state as also apathy towards the poor which leads to these policies. The film maker has acknowledged this. Zakaria seems to be an apologist for the Indian state. Quite a common trait amognst Indians who settle abroad. In the early stages of the Iraq war he had justified the bombing saying it would actually save lives! Pavan

violence.


6. THE INJURED AND THE WIDOWS: Adequate compensation should be given to those injured during violence, widows whose husbands were killed or missing, the families of those who were killed, or missing.


7. The victims of communal violence should be approached with sympathy From a humanitarian point of view compensation given to the victims should have been a sign of compassion and sympathy to the poor victims. In many cases, the rules and regulations were absolutely strictly imposed on the victims that even the compensating allotted to them was very slow in coming and in some cases not at all given to them. In communal violence where victims lose everything and suffer so much, the help should be given with a sense of urgency.


8. WAIVE OFF LOANS: During the communal violence and its aftermath people had taken loan since they did not have any employment. Even now they are without any job since a large number of them are still displaced. Such loans could be waved off so that the victims could live without anxiety and earn something for their day to day living.


9. SETTLEMENT OF LAND: Some of the victims do not have land patta [land allotment letter], others have no land, some have disputed land. Unless these are settled the construction of houses can not proceed. On 25th July 2009, 58 cases for land settlements have been given to the Distinct Magistrate; unless these are settled , house construction slows down.


10. FORCIBLE CONVERSION TO HINDUISM: It is reported that the refugees live in 27 villages in make-shift shelter. In more than ten (10) villages Christians are forced to live as Hindus. For instances, Betticola, Beheragaon, Kutulumba, Mundarigon, Kalingia, Santikia, Bindugan, Rotingia, Bodimunda and Dodopanka. This is totally contrary to the freedom of Religion Act which the Orissa Government upholds with great vigour. The Administration which claims secular credentials should not condone such violence.


11. COMPENSATION TO CHURCHES AND RELIGIOUS HOUSES: The RTI has recorded 233 churches and prayer halls, but it is estimated that there are 21 churches more which are not included in this list. During the communal violence in 2007 too about 200 churches and payer halls were destroyed. No consultation was made with the victims when compensation was fixed which is only a pittance and is not at all proportionate to the colossal destruction of property. In fact the compensation given to the churches amounts to about one tenth of the total cost.


12. HATE CAMPAIGN: The Government machinery should be alert to prevent hate-campaign that brews hate mobilization and religious and caste-based discriminative activities. The communal carnage in Kandhamal is the result of such hate-campaign that was going on in the State for decades, unfortunately unhindered by the State authorities.


13. MOB RULE: It is a very dangerous development in the country and also in Orissa that the mob is taking over the responsibility of controlling the Law and Order situation. If two or three hundred hooligan can control the situation what is the use of police, courts and civil administration? If one or two hard core criminals can take the whole administration, even the courts, for a ride, the very foundation of democracy is at stake. Daily shows on all the TV. channels prove amply what we have said. Often the victims are victimized by the administration. e24fc04721
