I deeply admire the courage of Indian filmmakers to confront social contradictions. Among the many films that reflect on the inherent contradictions of deep society, "Even Drop God 2 (2023)" is undoubtedly a remarkable work. It challenges conservative Indian societies about masturbation and the lack of sex education in schooling. As a Chinese moviegoer, I think the boldness and profundity of this film deserve our praise and respect.
In the case of this film, the debate part of the courtroom combines the rigor of the law with the ** of human society, but it seems to be a little confusing in some aspects. As for the true cause of this incident, the film does not fully reveal. For example, the act of settling bad students and the use of drones to film personal privacy and upload it to the Internet have not been properly punished. In addition, the school's expulsion of a student for filming personal privacy was too casual and not criticized. On the contrary, on the question of whether sex education should be set up in schools, the film devotes a lot of space. In my view, this may not be the root cause of justice. The director may have wanted to use this story to call for a change in India's conservative social climate and bravely introduce sex education to students.
India is a country with a particularly strong religious belief, and the source of strength to solve social problems throughout the film is still pious religion. When the protagonist is faced with a difficult situation, it is Lord Shiva who gives him the power to support, enlighten, and regenerate. Therefore, I do not think that the law alone can save India, and it is religion that will save India in the end. None of this can be achieved without a devout faith. While this connotation may have damaged the depth of rational thinking about sex education to some extent, it may have been more deeply rooted in this way in order to cater to Indian film audiences.
In addition, the film celebrates India's time-honored traditional culture and satirizes the psychological damage caused by the British copying the essence of traditional Indian culture and colonizing Indians. These elements are understandable, after all, the film is mainly made for Indian audiences.
In China, there is no sex education in schools, but the ** rate in China is not as high as in India. Therefore, I think it is an exaggeration to blame the lack of sex education in schools for all the worst crimes in society. What's more, India's severe gender imbalance, the illegality of the sex industry, and an overly conservative religious ethos have all depressed. Masturbation as a practice is widely accepted in China, but there are still objections among Indians with a British education, which does reflect the conservative level of Indian social mores.
Akshay Kumar, who plays Lord Shiva, has an impressive performance in the film. He has a good figure, and he is even more beautiful when he is young. Despite being 56 years old, his charm remains undiminished.
Overall, "Even Drop God 2 (2023)" is a movie worth pondering. Not only does it challenge conservative notions in Indian society, but it also provokes us to think deeply about sex education.
