48Passage – 13
Our society has become crazy about watching movies. Hindi movies
have hypnotized our Indian society. The advent of video and cable TV in
practically every home has only aggravated the craze.
I have recently entered my teens and I know what these movies can do
to students of my age especially those in college. I regret that all our Hindi
films are based on the same theme – love. The first thing each movie tries to
teach is that everyone falls in love with somebody, sometime or the other.
This influences youngsters immensely. As a result boys are found chasing
girls, and girls encouraging them.
Hindi films promote running away from home and extreme steps like
committing suicide. Personally I feel these are utterly foolish measures
adopted by youngsters. The public prefers such films to those that reflect
real life. It is a pity that no one realizes the extent to which these films can
influence and thus prove harmful to youngsters.
One cannot say love is bad, for it all depends on how an individual
views it. We youngsters must not let reason be sacrificed for the sake of
whimsical fancies. Above all, we youth must learn to confide in our parents.
We should have the guts to talk to our parents convincingly, but not
aggressively.
Questions:
1)
