Movie review of “Midnight's Children”

Colonialism is the imposition of belief and social practice of the dominant power on the subjugated one.

Post colonial image and how people have to leave and culture there and dominated them.

Post colonial studies apply Sulman Rushdies work. “Midnight's Children” Published in 1981, and directed by Deepa Mehta released in 2013. Sulman Rushdie gives ideas of historical fact and magic realism in novel. In movie two child born individual at stroke of midnight when India & Pakistan independence from British. In this movie start with narrator is Saleem Sinai born in Bombay. One child was beggar but it became rich and one Shiva character of child is rich became poor and also we can say that both are neighberhood and their time many other children are born of India independence. Here, we see that one faultof Nurse, she talk about that what she do them to their child and he is not child of Mumtaz and Ahemad Sinai.

In movie we see that location and place has to only Indian and Pakistan, we can see that in movie how this children born of midnight have struggle a lot and film maker has made horror, magical realism and political we can see that father and son relationship like Saleem and Ahemad Sinai and mother has to care of child allegory of them in how Saleem know that his mother affair of other man Nadir and saleem dislike him. We know that other poor child Shiva join Indian Army. He also talk them Parvati and how filmmaker has to create magic like “Abbraca Dabbara” generation after generation. Saleem love to Parvati. In movie Sleem's child has no speak and it save of magic and Parvati's heritage in their child.

In film plot is very complicated not stereotypes of them but very serious one. In this movie we see that individualism and independence of India and how this children are innocent but at time here no any humanity. It is only for politics and religious of them.
