Watching Bengali Serials

I don’t like to watch Bengali serials. I don’t see them. I rarely see Bengali movies. I see only those movies which are directed by Satyajit Ray, Hrithik Ghatak, Aparna Sen or sometimes movies by Rituporno Ghosh. I have never watched any commercial Bengali movie with Prosenjit, Rituporna Sengupta, etc which are known by ‘boi’ by these-type-of-movie-watchers.

Though I don’t watch those cheesy serials and movies, it doesn’t mean that I have any disrespect for my mother-tongue. If there are quality serials and movies made in Bengali, then I would definitely watch it.....but I can’t and won’t watch a third-class family drama with zero-talented actors just because it’s in my mother tongue.

On the contrary there are people........Bengali people who can’t read and write in their own mother tongue Bengali just because they studied in Kendriya Vidyalya and were so dim-witted that couldn’t remember the letters of two different languages – Bengali and Hindi when taught simultaneously and used to use Bengali scripts while writing for Hindi papaer. Obviously, these lame excuses are created just because the parents of these people don’t have the courage to accept that how proud they used to be on the fact when they used to see their son speaking in Hindi with his other fellow Bengali friends and how much pride it used to bring to them when they used to tell their relatives “my son can’t read and write in Bengali. He studies in KV you see”.

Now imagine such people who lived a fake life considering their son’s inability to read and write in Bengali and pointing out finger on someone who has spent whole life reading and admiring Bengali literature for that fact that that person doesn’t like to watch those third-class Bengali serials and movies, which they call ‘boi’.
