The brick lane Controversy

Severus · #1 (**permalink**) 10-27-2007, 06:50 PM

as bricklane is coming out as a movie from a novel , a debate is rising claiming that the asian people are portrayed badly in this movie. Is it true ? or are we easily offended?

but i do believe we are easily offended

nope I disagree.Obviously it doesn't say everything about Bangladeshis but it definitely gives a really good picture of BD immigrants from villages and the lives they lead when they emigrate from their homeland.

yes, we are easily offended

bengalis would rather lie and save face than address real issues

some even take pride in that..

I want to know who exactly is being pissed off about this.
Bangladeshi immigrants in UK or residential Bangladeshis?

Kotogula kotha kintu bangali community niye shotti ei boleche, jodiyo ami puro boi ta pore shesh korini. Amader community'r onek baje side achhe let's not ignore this fact

I totally agree with Tanna. Bangali prithibir jei prantei thakuk, be it UK or USA or Canada or Antartica eigulo shohab jibone paltabe na.

Movie ta na dekhe shetar upore comment kora bokami dekhe sheta niye kichu bolbo nah. Aage ber hok, dekhi tarpore i'll share my two cents...
