Naruto From Mirzapur
I got to have my creative milestones for inspiration. Of course I have to depend on the 90s Indian comics book narratives for getting inspirations for the worlds I want to build and that small window of globalised Indian comics narrative from late 2000s to early 2010s. Remembering those worlds means being able to access those worlds and getting inspired from them. Fantasy is the way, as I have realised. My imagination is effectively capped so I can't do much except trying but try I will. Here is a suggestion, read the comic called Odayan that was a product of late 2000s and early 2010s creative window this country witnessed. Also, if you want read, The Sadhu and Devi. My belief is that different narratives can coexist without clashing and it only aids in diversity. Comic book collecting is an expensive hobby, and I have realised that indigenous creativity and stories are intentionally being stifled so that Marvel and Japanese media like Anime can flourish in this country, though personally I'm not against Marvel, DC and Japanese media like Anime as I like them too but not at the cost of indigenous creativity and stifling of indigenous stories and imagination. As simple as this country is, I have realised that it is being done because indigenous narratives empower people and while empowerment from foreign comics and media can be neutralised with approach of discrimination based on faux nationalism, discrediting empowerment derived from foreign media by discrediting it as foreign and other methods. Not to mention the moolah that is poured in by foreign media corporations especially American and Japanese. My goal with comics and comic based movies was simple, entertainment and escape but then I realised that there is a bigger game at play here, and anyway in the past decade I have realised that the main source of entertainment in this country, except for pious and good people who are steadfastly decreasing in numbers, is demonically repressed sex acts. You see the entertainment media in general in this country and you realise that in the past decade it's been mostly about localised narrative which mostly consists of betrayal, local mafias and police procedurals of murder and rape. While darker themes are ok, they shouldn't be the only options people have as far as indigenous narratives are concerned, the other options are daily soaps which are escape for middle class women and a deluding factor for lower middle class girls. The saddest part is that corporations like Discovery who exposed us to nature and made us see dreams of flying cars in future are now shamelessly peddling inaccurate propaganda and indigenous "true-crime" documentaries. It's basically grooming and priming people for schadenfreude so that they lose all moral standing and can be exploited on the basis of it as morality has been since forever the blueprint for exploitation. These bastards have neutralised everyone who could have built kinder and aesthetic narratives and what remains is an ecosystem of exploitation and schadenfreude.
