# Short Hindi film : DEFENCE OF FREEDOM

         The short film written by Nandita Dad . The short film gives a glimpse into Manto's strong beliefs about the freedom of speech in a democracy . And also Saadat Hasan Manto was a fierce man who lived on his terms , with no care for social dogmas . Saadat Hasan Manto , the legendary Indo - Pakistani writer . Manto was tried for obscenity six time . In fact he come under fire throughout his life for his explicit depiction of decadent and oppressive society of his time. Unaffected by societies opinions of him.

                  

                  Manto was wrote honestly and scathingly about the reality faced by sex workers , as well as the sexual subjugation of women in general . And in this film his dilogues represent the current public situation like , 

      

     "  मन्टो एक इंसान है और हर इंसान को प्रोग्रैसीव होना चाहिए " 

          "में उस सोसायटी की चोली क्या उतारुऺगा जो पहले से ही नंगी है। उसे कपड़े पहनाना मेरा काम नहीं है । में काली तख्ती पर सफेद चोक इस्तेमाल करता हूं  ताकि काली तख्ती और नुमाया हो जाएं ।"

∆ The Blood Line - A Film By Ram Madhvani 

                      Ram Madhvani's introspective film throws light on an important and perhaps forgotten footnote of  India's controversial partition history .  The bloody line is about the emotional turmoil of the man who divided our country in 1947. We are talking about sir Cyril Bardcliffe line that divided India and East Pakistan .  And he also reveals how Mahatma Gandhi  told him  about ahimsa and how this line would only invoke violence . And at the end Ram Madhvani has managed to capture guilt and frustration of Cyril Radcliff .  And he submitted the partition map on 9th August 1947 .  And during the partition millions of people who flee across the border when they discovered the new boundaries left them in  the wrong country .  And at that time millions of people who injured and also died .

       "  देश एक राग है " कविता में राष्ट्र और देश के बिच के अंतर को स्पष्ट किया गया है । इसमें बताया गया है कि किस तरह से एक देश तो राष्ट्र बन सकता है पर क्या राष्ट्र कभी देश बन सकता है? क्या देश की परंपरा , संस्कृति , भाषा ,  वेशभूषा को बदला जा सकता है ?  ऐसे कई बातों के बारे में कहा गया है । और " देश एक राग है " कविता के अंत में कवि भगवत रावत लिखते हैं कि ,

इस सबके बाद भी , 
आपको अपना राष्ट्र मुबारक
मुझे तो अपना देश चाहिए
आपको इक्कीस तोपों की सलामी मुबारक
मुझे आसमान में लहराता मेरा तिरंगा चाहिए
बुरा लगा हो तो माफ़ करना
में तो अपने लोकतंत्र में
अपनी छोटी सी नागरिक इच्छा पूरी करना चाहता था ।
इस बार छब्बीस जनवरी पर
में देश के नाम संदेश देना चाहता था ।
