Can over exaggeration be an ingredient in entertainment with a suspenseful action-drama series?

Then don't call it inspired by real events.

And how is diluting the role of ISI and showing those terrorists as humanitarian entertainment?


P.S. just a question if you don't mind why do you add celebratory/happy emocon in even sad posts

Two things which they did not emphasise were the role of ISI and massive security failure on the part of the Indian government.

I remmber reading all about this and followed this news regularly back then.

General public were outraged that the passengers on the flight did not put up any resistance and the flight crew team also was critisized by the public back then. Nobody knew what it is to be at the mercy of armed goons.

Don't understand the criticism about the names. In fact those were the names those hijackers used for themselves.

People have gotten into the habit of making big thing out of small things and ignoring the big things.

Some posts that justify my sentiment on this.

Theek hai the terrorists used the names as undercover. What was the compulsion of using those names by the creator of the series? Why they didn't use the original names and these interchangeably?

Those hijackers and terrorists obviously chose the names to throw the security authorities off the track. They were camoflage names.Why they used Hindu names for camoflague? The answer is obvious.

They obviously wouldn't be addressing each other by their real names in the middle of an operation they are involved in.

The second question do we want to watch a series which is realistic in it's portrayal or do we want to watch a series that is based on real life incident completely dramataised where we couldn't tell which is fiction and which is fact.

Well if the series is named IC814 and based on actual events they should stick to the facts rather than fiction.

Imagine a movie named 9/11 showing Russians flying the planes into the twin towers.

They could have atleast showed the Indian officials talking about hijackers' real names and the names of those terrorists they wanted released from the jail, one of them being Masood Azhar. Real incident based series me kuch specific real facts chhupane ki kuchh to majboori rahi hi hogi na ... Samjha karo smiley1

That's the point. Generally public don't differentiate between these stuff. You show a well made dramatised fiction and people will consider it reality. Like Jodha Akbar.

That's why hiding real names was a problem. And like Nathu bro said, India side could have used the real names. Why avoid?

That's why 370 was brilliant. They didn't hide the Terrorist name as Burhan Wani. Also Zakir Naikoo.

But his the helpers and all political leaders name were hidden with a fake name. You can see and guess who was who if you were familiar with them but only Burhan wani and Zakir Naikoo name was openly used. That's called treating the terrorists rightly. Not humanizing them by using nicknames everywhere.

Using the code names in the show tells us one important thing. The extent these hijakers/terrorists/ anti social elements go to hide their identity.

If they had shown them using their original names we would have never gotten to know how they move around in our country.

Lol. smiley36 After Kasab everyone knows. My point is making it main name. There is no justification as I see apart from long term propoganda. After 20 years no one will know real name. Indian side should have prominently used real names.

Another W from 370. The terrorists used code words. Something like some angels in Islam. But Indian side never used those names.
