Slumdog Millionaire Vs Bollywood: Astro Analysis
Slumdog
Millionaire Vs Bollywood: Astro Analysis
In my last article “Transit of Saturn and Bollywood during
Recession”, the coming times for Bollywood
were discussed. It was plainly stated that Saturn will help the underdogs of
the industry who are fighting to survive and who have not been able to win
against the established players of the industry. It was also mentioned that a
new team of upcoming stars will challenge the established players. The
established stars will have to live with fee cuts and reduced offerings.
Here the relevant quote to which I would like to draw
attention is “new stars challenging the older stars and giving them run for
their money”. The turn of events after Slumdog
Millionaire won 8 oscars (8 is very significant because in numerology it is
also the number of Saturn) has been on the predicted lines. The lead actress
“Frieda Pinto” has got an offer of a whooping 2 to 3 million dollars for her
next Hollywood film (as per media reports), a feat which no female lead in
India was able to achieve earlier. Though, bollywood
actresses have tried their luck in
The second important prediction was “films associated with
high moral values will bounce back on production lines”. Saturn, in Vedic astrology stands for the common
man. Slumdog Millionaire is a story of
struggle of slum dwellers for whom a lowly title “slumdog” was chosen. They
lived against all odds including police excesses, human trafficking, gangsters,
riots etc and suffered every type of abuse. The story deals with common man
with which Saturn is associated. Bollywood
produces thousands of films in a year, but they rarely formulate a masterpiece
like Slumdog Millionaire. Bollywood films
are far away from reality. The production line and commercial film makers never
touch the subject of ignorance, poverty and other problems concerning the
country. However, Slumdog Millionaire
being a commercial success in the world will force producers and directors of
Bollywood to make better quality films to earn more.
It is not clear what Aishwarya Rai Bachchan got for her
role in “Pink Panther” but it is clear from media reports that “Frieda Pinto”
will make 2 to 3 million dollars for her upcoming “Woody Allen” film. The
rupees 10 crore to rupees 15 crore bracket remained unachievable by the other
lead actresses of
The Bollywood, is
going to change in many ways. There will be adjustments and reductions in the
fees of artists. There will be change in the theme of films and the total
number of films produced in a single year will also decline.
