ROCKSTAR - REALITY OF GLORIOUS PAIN


Rockstar is a movie about a mundane guy who was Eger to become famous because of his yet-to-achieve super-artistic nature. Meanwhile somebody gave him the mantra of becoming such a personality. He followed that to ultimately end up being burning, restless, crying and dying in front of laughing and enjoying crowd. This is a story but still, why if it’s real then he became of such a kind while millions of others with tremendous efforts are not. Reason as far my opinion is the blind following of mool mantra given to him without application of his brain of what is wrong and what is right.
But in my opinion this movie is knowingly or unknowingly a slap on eagerly, stupidly enthusiastic youth by Imteaz Ali which is very similar to the one by James Francis Cameron by Titanic. People before (and some after) Titanic* used to depict a historical disaster as a super hero stunt done my dead boat. Similar is the case of Pain and stardom. Now let me tell you why….
In the movie JJ was kid singer who was told that he don’t have pain which is the sole reason of making his voice so powerful that it can drag millions to your rock concert. He tried honestly to get that pain by being heartbroken, slowly got dragged towards Heer (his love), got kicked by family towards the vast space of misery. Being separated from Heer he was restless and trying to minimize that by SINGING. Hence our rockstar was born with a voice filled with pain, as in my opinion his artistic talent is used by him to suppress his pain, which being so powerful throwing his talent out to heights being noticed by everyone. And this is the concept behind……
Since I was a college going kid I noticed others talking …yo man…wow….”HOW PAINFULL”….and I used to think why so happy when they know that there is a pain involve. Is not that funny….yes it is .Because I was being stupid and I didn’t noticed the superficial outcome of pain. Outcomes like careless attitude, heart touching songs and all of above fame. I never noticed that never….but one day I notices and I was not stupid and I depicted a little more insight than a normal crowd can show. I saw the Restlessness for being hugged by someone, frustration of not getting what is mine and snatched by world, irritated by stupid question and fake smile to get an attention, tired of being in a state of thinking repeat telecast of already happened events and many more.
Some of these PAIN fan club members used to learn by time that there is nothing in what they used to do but they left behind group of followers who went out in field in spiritual search of PAIN. Maybe some of them or god knows 50% or more of them will get what they were taught to get…..Stardom of pain, but what about the rest.
The key of becoming the star is the repeated practicing the skill (and this skill can be anything from physics to rock music as I know E=mc2 is as famous as “the doors”), some used to do because their pain compel them to do that and some do it because they are happy doing that. And trust me guys the happier you are the more you will receive.
Well the best thing about the movie is the slogan in the end by RUMI

Beyond all the concepts of wrong doing and right doing, there is a field….. I will meet you there....!!!!I liked it but seems to be picturising “after death” scenario but I like it in a way “during living” one.


*here by titanic I mean the Titenic movie
