Upcoming Movie: "Shudra – The Rising?"


Now you can watch this movie from here.

I believe till now everyone might have heard about the upcoming movie on Dalits of India, i.e. “Shudra – The Rising?” In case you have missed the news, here is the news! Movie is produced and directed by Sanjiv Jaiswal and movie will be of 120minutes. We all know we can’t express the pain and suffering of Dalits in 2hours movie but still I believe it’s an ideal runtime for a movie and it will be advantageous.

Movie: “Shudra- The Rising?” Poster

A bit of storyline:

Movie is based on story of 250million people born as untouchables (and today’s Dalits) in Hindu caste system and subjected to humiliation and slavery since ancient times. When aryans came to India with the intention of looting, they enslaved the peace loving natives. Manu – Hindu guru – imposed laws on untouchables and barred them from reading, writing and listening holy mantras. Natives were treated less than human, impure, unclean and were forced to do menial jobs.

In the movie you will see, Shudra denied water, (Dalits still fight for such rights) a Shudra child’s nose chopped off for chanting mantras, (Dalits are still not allowed to enter many temples in India), a pregnant Shudra women forced to sleep with upper caste people (Dalit women still are raped on Day to day basis in India) and many more heart touching scenes – the only crime of theirs – they are born untouchables.  Movie seems to be based on real events, if not real I bet, you might have heard such incidents once in a while in your life-time. It is believed that nature took ages to make man out of animal, but it took moments for certain men to make their fellow human animal again. “Shudra – The Rising?” highlights the depth that evil human mind can succumb, to cling on to power and supremacy.

Recently, the “Shudra – The Rising?” team has received screening Invitation for “Shudra – The Rising?” from South Asian Film Festival which will take place June 13-17, 2012, in Vancouver, and in the Fraser Valley, British Columbia, Canada.

My best wishes to the team

I strongly believe that movies on social issues should be made and given more emphasis. Sanjiv Jaiswal has chosen an important issue of caste discrimination, which has ruined millions lives and hopes. After watching trailers of movie, I can say that it’s a sincere effort by the team to put forward the caravan of Dr Ambedkar. I wish the team a grand success!

P.S.: Movie is going to release in Feb. 2012 and you can visit the movie site at http://www.shudrathefilm.com for latest updates.

      You’re parroting the beliefs of the defunct Aryan invasion theory. It was framed by British for justifying foreign rule over India. Since India was ruled by foreigners all along, they justified that they were also eligible to rule over the country.

      Shudras were Aryans and they have nothing to do with the present day Hindu “shudras” who from over 90% of the population. When Aryans came to India, they brought this caste nonsense wit them and deliberately applied it to all peoples of India. What began as 3 Castes (Viz, Brahmins – Religious and scholars, Vaishy – Agriculture and trade, Kshatriy – Warriors, Rulers, Nobles and administrators) mysteriously acquired the fourth caste shudras from within themselves. This nonsense spilled over to other tribes they came into contact with, even among the powerful Dravidians and evolved into well over 12,000 castes and many more branches (shakha). Most of these are just the names of professions, places or characteristics of the tribe or clan of the people.

      Just look at the society. There white, black, brown, golden, yellow and many skilled peoples. How can they all be Aryans? Why is this caste system applicable to them? Aren’t Aryans supposed to be fair? And all vedic literature is in Sanskrit, an Aryan Language. Nothing is mentioned about the local people elsewhere. Why should this caste system apply to all Indians?

      There is religious evidence that caste system started as 3 castes in Hindu religious literature. Shudras was not one of them. At that time they were certainly in India. If the Aryans were an invading tribe, Shudras should have to exist by then. Shudras were a later addition. A sad point is that their caste system was accepted as universal by the other tribes of India.

    please do not go for this movie until it will clear what this movie is all about… this can be another treat for bhuddhists by this brahmins ,,,,, why support this jaiswal (non buddhist) and waste our money and time and divert our mind ,,… if we want to know ” WHO were Shudra” then read THE BOOK ” WHO WERE SHUDRAS” BY DR. AMBEDKAR…..
    PLEASE PLEASE HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELVES AND A NON BUDDHIST ( JAISWAL ) …..

    Fistly im very very thaxful to mr. Jaiswalji to realising such shudra film. Really hats off to you jaiswalji. I m tellin u true fact about our new generation Aaj kal k youngster jo shudra category se related he sometimes they shamed to quote when someone asked them what is ur caste. I dont know y those guys shamin the shudra caste. Be proud of ur caste guys. Aur me ek aur baat batana chahata hu k india jitne b raja maharaja the unhone hum shudro k joro par badi badi ladaiya jiti thi nai k kshtriya aur brahmn. Lekin is sari jeet ka shrey ye brahmn aur kshtriy le jate the. Aj b hamare samaj aise bohot sare log he jo babasaheb ambedakar ji k wajah se unka wajood he aj usi samaj k kai log unhehi manese muh fer lete he. Jab hindu samaj me ham shudro koi sthan hi nai tha tab babasaheb ne hum shudro ko bouddha dharm dilaya . Usi waqt hum shudra hindu religion se alag ho gaye the. Aur aj hum dalit kisi bhagwan ka photo ghar me na lagaye to hindu kehte k dalit bhedbhav karte he lekin jab ham dalit kisi hindu k ghar jate he to unke ghar me hame lord buddha ka photo nai dikhta he tab ham dalit to kuch nai kehte he .phir bhedbhav kaun karta he aap hi sochiye. Jab koi dalit insan kaand karta he to ye media vale bade bade words me breaking news dikhaenge” dilli me ek dalit ne chori ki” “u.p. Me ek dalit ne murder kiya”. On the other hand side jab koi dalit ladki ka balatkar hota he to media ye nai kahegi ki ” dalit ladki ka balatkar hua” .agar yehi kaand koi dusra samaj ka karta he to media kabi nai kehti k brahmn ne balatkar kiya .aj b hamare india har din kisi na kisi dalit ka ghar jalaya jata he tab media kuch nai bolti. So i m tellin u true fact . So many of the news channels editors in our country are belongin to upper caste. There are so many things i want to share wid u guys.but now its enough .. Jay bhim jay bharat
