Modi Journey of a Common Man, Hillary

  •  Watched two series as mentioned above:
  • Modi Journey of a Common Man
    • This was watched partly on ErosNow and partly on Airtel XStream App
    • I had joined Erosnow for a year by paying Rs399 in February 2020.
    • Then I accidentally deleted the account
    • Now I am unable to access  the account which I had joined using mobile number.
    • I can login using Email ID but it is basic account.
    • So I had to resort to Airtel Xstream and as I am a customer of Airtel, I have free access to Airtel XStream.
    • Well the series is an effort in "whitewashing Modi's character"
    • It is like "The Least of These" movie which was based on Graham Staines killing.
    • It seems the Sangh Parivaar have done no wrong ever.
    • Anything bad has happened, no one from Bajrang Dal, VHP or RSS is ever involved.
    • That is shown in the series.
    • Modi is shown to be a Godly person and whatever he does is for welfare of people.
    • The series has shown several flashbacks to Modi's youth from where he draws "inspiration".
    • It seems Rath Yatra which Advani did was Modi's idea is shown. 
    • I had seen a video where it was shown wherever Rath went there were riots and people died.
    • The Indian flag hoising at Lal Chowk in Srinagar was also Modi's idea. 
    • It is shown Modi is a friend of Muslims. Why? Because 2000 died instead of 20000 in 2002  Gujarat riots.
    • Season 1 has seven episodes and Season 2 has three episodes.
    • Outside India this series is available on Amazon Prime Video.
  • Hillary
    • I have bought recently Tata Sky Binge Plus Box (Tata Sky Binge Plus)
    • Along with the box came subscription for various Apps including Sony Liv.
    • I was browsing through Sony Liv and I came across Hillary series.
    • This four part series documents the life of Hillary Clinton.
    • It is very real and shows life and struggle of Hillary from childhood till the time she loses to Donald Trump.
    • It is shown that she is "one of a kind". It is very real. I mean that is who she really is.
    • Compared to Modi series where he is projected as Godman, Hillary is real.
    • No actors are used and Bill Clinton and various aides of Hillary speak on the life and times of Hillary.
    • It is a very intense experience to watch and we cant help and appreciate Hillary Clinton.
    • I am yet to finish the last episode of the series, the fourth one.
    • I have a feeling US people lost a lot as Hillary Clinton could have been the first woman President of US.
    • Instead once they had to settle with Barack Obama in 2008 and next time in 2016 with Donald Trump.
    • US people never know what they lost.
    • A white woman could be President.
    • But now if something happens to Joe Biden, they have to contend with Kamala Harris.
    • But one thing is clear, even in 2016, Barack Obama was clear and Hillary Vice President running mate was clear that Trump is a fascist and it is dangerous whom Trump represents.
    • The people that Trump represents get empowered when Trump is in power and that is dangerous.
    • Trump then becomes a symbol or figure and not a leader actually.
    • Same they have shown in beginning of fourth episode.
