Chandrawal: A Cultural Icon in Haryanvi Cinema

Chandrawal: A Cultural Icon in Haryanvi Cinema

Staff@THS Staff@THS

Chandrawal was a huge hit in Haryanvi cinema, much like "Sholay" was in Bollywood. If your roots are from Haryana, you must have heard of it at least once in your life. What made this movie first of its kind in Haryanvi cinema was its ability to derive from the reality of those times, depicting the tensions between different castes, conflict between traditions and individual freedom, and the courage to change status quo. The presence of phenomenal folk music in the movie is yet another reason for its success and is something that has its legacy continued in Haryanvi music industry even today.

Notably, the OBC community in Haryana accounts for around 30 percent of Haryana’s population. To woo the OBC voters, the BJP government had earlier established a sub-quota for municipal bodies for the BC-A category, which is the most backward among the state's Backward Classes. Interestingly, Rao Inderjit Singh and Krishan Pal Gurjar, both who assumed their respective charges as Union ministers in Modi 3.0 recently, come from the OBC community in the state.

Somebody should Kejriwal, what kind of dictatorship is he talking about when the Prime minister couldn’t keep him behind bars for more than 50 days! To give a more picturesque explanation to Kejriwal’s claims, one must think about how can democracy be in danger in India, when the next in line Chief Justice of India Sanjeev Khanna, and his bench give him bail stating that “21 days will not make any difference”! In case, Kejriwal is saying for so many months had even an “ounce of truth”, Kejriwal would still be in Tihar and not in Connaught place visiting the Hanuman mandir and addressing crowds.
