Chak De - India !

Chak De India is one of the most patriotically made movie. I agree no less, when I saw the movie I thought it was fantastic, the director, the screen play, the actors, the narration all and all was impeccable. It led one to a different zone of emotional energy. While I watched the movie the first time, I thought I wanted to bring my team for this movie as well. Not because I thought they were as differently oriented people as were the 16 hockey players here. In fact it was quite the contrary, the team was the best spirited together. Yet we all are human beings and tend to take our thoughts in different directions all the time. For a simple example, I myself have went into many cycles of changing my dance school to try if there may be something even better around. And if it wasn't for my teacher, who keeps the enthusiasm alive by setting new benchmarks for me to achieve, I may have left long since. I never knew there were so many blocks, I had to work on myself. And so is with everyone of us, in a team there is always a scope of improvement and the only way it can be achieved is if the coach keeps polishing those angles and the team stays in the spirit and works for a common goal. And it not only needs a good mentor, but a clear objective. Its also important that there is belief in a common goal and also the spirits are alive, which brings the team together and makes them achieve quite an unachievable goal. Our cricket team is an example, if they were a team, it would not see the fate, what we see today. Australians have set an fine example, to show what team is like and they never falter. During the course in the movie, once the commentator too claimed, Indians need to learn to be a team. Isnt it time, to stand and take a note, to observe, if we can acheive it togethere in whatever fields, we may be in, not necessarily cricket. That itself may be the starting step. Individually a lot of things may not be possible but with a team nothing looks like a far boundary. It was one of the best performance rendition by Shah Rukh, he may not have known the game so much but he did work on it to make everyone believe in it, which is commendable. Things look far easy from far, but the performance by self makes you realize the true cost. If you have not really seen it, catch on the movie for its worth all its meant for..and tell me if you agree :)
