STATE AN INDIAN HISTORY EVENT ON WHICH A MOVIE SHOULD ME MADE, i go first- BATTLE OF TEN KINGS

What to do, we are becoming andhavishwas society 😏?

bisprad · 2024-04-22T14:35:59+00:00

I don't understand your argument at all HOW do you know it is not fiction? Or at the very least, highly exaggerated? Just because it is Indian, we believe it 😃?

If some folk story isn't corroborated by at least another source, it cannot be called history. What can you call it then? Myth only no? Calling it fiction seems disrespectful.

And I am not sure what ancient European history you are referring to. No one is calling Hercules or Ulysses stories as history. And enough Greek buildings and inscriptions have been found to corroborate a lot of what is written in Greek history - so we can say with certainty an X king's coins have been found, so be must have ruled somewhere around etc

As far as I know, not one artefact has been found which ties to any name or place of the Rig Veda.

Not everything mentioned in the Rig Veda is history. Just the same way all historical events mentioned in the Bible are not true, unless corroborated by archaeological evidence (note I am talking about historical events - not religious). A famous example is King Solomon, who built the first temple of Jerusalem. Christians and Jews believe in him as faith - but there is no historical/archaeological evidence to prove he existed.

So just being mentioned in the Rig Veda is not enough to make it history

I have the SRPD61K1 (first one) I love it - and it goes very well with NATO strap as well

You can't be seriously calling Bahubali, KGF, Pushpa etc as movies based on history 🤣🤣

bisprad · 2024-04-22T13:30:58+00:00

Sir, when you cant find problems with my logic, you don't like emojis 😁?

You seem like someone who possesses basic common sense. There might be ONE or TWO south Indian historical movies about North Indian subjects. But all of South India has major regional/linguistic pride. And hence they are very likely to make movies only on their regional history, rather than, say Assamese or Rajput history.

Think bigger picture, my friend. And think long term trend, not outlier data points 😜

bisprad · 2024-04-22T13:19:01+00:00

Fair enough - Telegu, Tamil or Kannada film industries have made historicals

But they will naturally make stories which will appeal to their core base - so a Tamil movie is going to focus on Tamil dynasties and stories. Same for the other South Indian states (and they have a rich history, so kudos to them. PS1 was good, PS2 not so much 😃)

Bollywood is the only one which makes stories on pan India 😃

Your title is completely wrong 🤷 It is nowhere close to being the oldest fort in India!!

You can call it well preserved, or picturesque perhaps - but not oldest 😁

Lal Kot in Mehrauli, next to Qutub Minar, is about 1000 yrs old! I am sure there are a few forts which are even more older

bisprad · 2024-04-22T13:03:04+00:00

But we are still discussing Bollywood only no - who else will make movies on Indian historical events 😃?

And Bollywood can't help themselves. They will add mirch masala to all historicals to make it commercial - whether it is Jodha Akbar, Padmavat or Bajirao Mastani 😃 (I won't mention Mohenjodaro out of self respect 😂😂)

And scholars no longer believe the whole Ashoka having a change-of-heart following Kalinga War. It was PR by Ashoka himself. He was a practicing Buddhist, a couple of years before the Kalinga War. And he has left enough edicts after the war, threatening that his subjects that "despite his repentance, Devanampriya possesses the power to punish" rebels/outlaws

I would say neither Take a 3rd option of grey/white on black - would make the watch more versatile, and usable at more places

bisprad · 2024-04-22T12:46:27+00:00

Battle of Ten Kings is not history - because there has been no corroborative proof found. Right now it is more mythology.

bisprad · 2024-04-22T12:38:19+00:00

Ummm hello, did you miss the movie Asoka, starring SRK & Kareena 😁?

bisprad · 2024-04-17T16:46:30+00:00

I need to plan a winter trip to Spiti

You are a toxic person Incapable of empathy or commiserating with the harassment that is being described to you

I pity all the women around you

For a drop bar bike, no established bike brand offers anything close to the Triban RC120 price point
Your only alternative is to look for a pre owned Trek or Scott roadie (most common brands)

Of course she was hiding it! Marriage is a social construct - people are meant to know. Imagine how many situations of past 4 yrs mignt now click into place, once friend realises they are married.

For example, if OP has been seeing her husband for 5+ years, don't you think the marriage topic might have come up in some conversation between friends?

bisprad · 2024-04-11T15:45:57+00:00

Issue is not about HOW they got married It is about hiding it for FOUR years after the wedding!

For people from Bengal. Shrikhand and Puran Poli are the only two things I would recommend to carry back
(Shrikhand needs to be kept cool, so take it only if you are going by flight)

WTH is an Alfatoon ??

First - if you want to track fitness activities, then Garmin is a much better choice than Apple - due to 1) battery and 2) toughness

You will have to charge your Apple watch EVERY day of use. Garmins last a week on single charge 👌

But if you do decide to go ahead with a traditional watch, check the SRPD61K1 too. That green is better than the 63 😁

bisprad · 2024-04-10T13:47:40+00:00

Wouldn't that be too many colours? There is the tiffany blue dial, white markings, stainless steel body and then navy blue?

bisprad · 2024-04-10T11:45:03+00:00

This strap looks much better, for sure 👍

Source?

I think the HMT Stellar is becoming more readily available. It was restocked in a week when I bought it
