The insult of Mile Sur Mera Tumhara
Today I saw the new version of Mile Sur mera tumhara. the song based on Indian Integrity and the whole concept of “Unity in Diversity”, But really dissapointed to see the new version just focussing on Bollywood, Mumbai,Filmstars.
The new composition is a mess. Its a total bloody mess.The song does not focuss on the main important aspects of our countries progress, culture, tradition, religions.Where are all the great personlaities of our nation? the greatest monuments of our country,the resources,the culture.I could highlight the following weaknesses in the composition.
1.I am being a little partial in saying this first .being a Goan by origin .There is No Goa Shown.There is no Kashmir, No Assam, No Kerala.
2.No taj mahal the only world acclaimed wonder of our country
3.No lata mangueshkar
4.No mention of chandrayaan.One of our bigger scientific achievements of the decade!
5.Very poor deepika and ranbir.Deepika wearing a fancy sleeveless dress and dancing in water on hills, Is this the actual Indian culture? and after all no video is complete without the hyped kapoor’s in india.
6.Amir khan shooting a tare zammen par? Sharukh khan acting like knight rider promo add.Salman as usual showing off his Body. Too much of focus on Khan’s.
7.The dance composition of Shiamak Davar and Kuchipudi was done in real bad taste
8.Showcasing Only Mumbai and the highliting the bandra worli sea link. As if this is the only flyover bridge in the world.
9.No hint of Cricket.
These are only some weeknesses. There are lots. Very sorry that we are not progressing but going back to a non developed state of whay back in 1950’s when India first initiated its republic day.The film looked to show a confused india and not a developing India, progressing India. The older video still looked new and much tender than the new one.No match betwwen the older and new. That is why we always tend to say
OLD is GOLD
I was left very sad for this years Republic day. the 60th Republic day.
Please comment more and more
Dont take government advertisements seriously mohnish. The people who give a big ad in news paper with Pakistani General’s photo as a India’s proud son are not competent enough to even change a baby’s diaper.
Shankar Ehsan Loy are perfect for Congress government’s secularism.
Anushka Shankar is shown as Indian. That legitimizes Rahul Gandhi as Indian.
Rest all looks like a Congress government’s ad. The footage of women working in field can later be used for NREGS promo.
Salman khan’s part was very innovative I liked it. Finally we are taking the handicapped kids into consideration.
A usual little presence of North east. No Kashmeer, Buddhism, Arunachal no temples ….
Manmohan is all set to give Kashmeer to Pk and AP to China.
see there the The London-based Commonwealth Games Federation has already a distorted map of India on its website that shows areas of Gujarat and Jammu and Kashmir as part of Pakistan.
Really true. This Mile Sur is really a mess specially Deepika, it looks nice she is come for a ramp modeling wearing such idiotic clothes and the song is remixed too, i preferably liked the old version – its really original and clean. Liked your blog – Keep It Up
Please change one thing in your writing, its not 60th republic day but 61st (Example: http://www.dnaindia.com/mumbai/report_mumbai-celebrates-61st-republic-day_1339539)

The 2.0 version of Mile Sur Mera Tumhara really sucks. It lacks the beats that were present in the earlier version.
I think most of the people who were in the previous song are still alive and kicking they could have simply remade the whole song to generate the feeling of nostalgia.
By the way Deepka Padukone looks as if she is straight out of Liril Ad and coincidently the director of this Phir Mile… happens to be the director of Liril Ads.
Sonu Nigam ismaking an ass of himself in this. Shahrukh has repeated his act of spreading arms once again.
Aish also seems to be copying Sharmila Tagor
Hey, otherwise the Congress’s main moto at the time of election remains that “congress purane din vaapas laane wale hai”.
par congress ne purane logo ko tho bhula hi diya ha.
Kya kare iska?
