Thomas Babington Macaulay was a man who wanted India and Indians to be westernized. He wanted to implement British education system in India, distract Indians from their history and destroy ancient Indian culture which is common throughout the India irrespective of language, caste, religion etc. So let’s talk about a famous personality who is working tirelessly to complete Macaulay’s mission. Let’s learn and educate ourselves about Ekta Kapoor’s those 4 brilliant steps which she has taken for this.
1. Attacking the Roots : Demeaning Joint Family System Through Daily Soaps
The culture of joint families has always been a strength of our nation. It was and it is the backbone of our great civilization. This was the reason Macaulay wanted to destroy this culture so badly that he included it among those three barriers which are hindering Britishers to have full control over India (other two were spirituality and Indian education system).
Throughout his life, Macaulay tried his best to destroy this family culture in India. But he could not achieve that landmark in this mission which Ekta Kapoor has achieved. Through her daily soaps she always attacked family culture of India. A country where members of a joint family always respect each other was demeaned in her daily soap. Then whether it was ‘Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’, ‘Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki’, ‘Ye Hai Mohabbatein’ or ‘Bade Acche Lagte Hain’, each and every time family culture was attacked and Indian women were shown in bad light. Can’t say much about intensity but these daily soaps definitely impacted our households negatively.
2. Suppressing Reality By Fiction : Historical Distortion Through T.V. Serials
After distorting our present culture, Ekta Kapoor decided to exploit our glorious past. There have been two major projects of Ekta Kapoor related to history which were nothing but pieces of propaganda: ‘Jodha Akbar’ and ‘Mahabharata’.
Story of ‘Jodha Akbar’ has always been a mythological concept and has been used several times to prove how great were the Mughals and how they gave respect to our local kings. Even after this myth has been busted several times by many historians, still Ekta Kapoor chose to make a serial on this concept.
And what can we say about Ekta Kapoor’s Mahabharat? Modernizing our glorious history is that sin which has been done in this serial. Veteran actor Mukesh Khanna, who played the role of Bheeshma in BR Chopra’s Mahabharat exposed the agenda of Ekta Kapoor in this video https://youtu.be/yYPWWAjzam4
3. Distracting The Youth: Through Sexual Movies
Next thing Ekta Kapoor did was to get attention of youth of the country and exploit there innocence through vulgar movies. Most of the movies produced by Ekta Kapoor are sexually oriented. The base audience of such films are youth. Those young people who have the responsibilities of the country are being distracted by such movies. Instead of their career, their family, and their nation they are thinking about their sexual relations and sexual fantasies. And the irony is that Macaulay also wanted to divert Indian youth from their path of nationalism to such imaginary pleasures so that they don’t remain humans anymore and become machines which can be operated by foreign powers.
4. The Ultimate Weapon: Redefining Family Relations Through Web Series
After all these propagandas and plannings, nowadays Ekta Kapoor is using that ultimate weapon which can destroy our culture permanently. She knows that even after all these sexual movies, a common Indian boy or girl can never think of committing anything wrong because of his/her sexual fantasies. He/ She will still live under the boundaries of morals and ethics. But when you will serve the most vulgar, abusive and insane content on the mobile screen of each and every youngster in this country then who can stop you from making Macaulay’s dream a reality.
Now Ekta Kapoor comes on OTT platforms with her contents. In those web series, she can show sexual relations between brother and sister, aunt and nephew, mother and son, student and teacher etc. And there is no censor board there for censoring that. Now without being filtered and certified our children are exposed to all kind of nonsense contents in the name of FOE, and this is that final and ultimate weapon which is going to kill the essence of India.
After all such brilliant effort I don’t know about the happiness of Ekta Kapoor But Macaulay would be definitely very happy and would be blessing Ekta for carrying his mission forward.
