I love Arjun's quote, "If people have different goals, they are not having a conversation. It is an argument." Oh boy, isn't that the case. Listening (and not talking) is an undervalued gift...and if this film "We really don’t know where the movie is headed, who the good guys are, how it will all end. It’s rare, and quite a gift, to watch a movie that surprises you and doesn’t feel predictable" ala moviewise, I'm in!

It's a wonder we can communicate at all considering what it takes to understand someone and to feel understood! Everyone involved in a conversation has to be seeing the same thing, otherwise there is miscommunication. And if you are trying to work as a team, you most definitely need to have the same goals. That was a conflict in this movie as Arjun discussed, and it explains why the motivation to do something has to ultimately come from within. In other words, no one else can give you your goals.

Someone just reminded me "You have to meet people where they are at, not where you want them to be."

That's very nice! It's the inverse of Wayne Gretzky's quote about hockey: “I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.”

Yes, it’s a different kind of movie experience, and it’s eye-opening. It’s definitely worth the time.

Although I don’t know Hindi, I’ve loved just about every Bollywood movie I’ve seen. They are always so fun and well made.
