@Katsumotobhai civils related dekhni h toh ek katiyabaaz naam ki doc aai thi, based on tenure of Ritu Maheshwari(IAS) as MD, Kesco(Kanpur)

@Katsumotonahi toh regular me oct sky type dekhni h toh watch Moneyball(context, story alag hai but it's about doing something which looked impossible at first)

@Hermione_Granger Into The Wild is a tragedy. It leaves one with a feeling of emptiness. Can't call it inspirational.

@Hermione_Granger into the wild starts in a good high but end me kuch alag hi kr deti h, everything would seem futile then

@LightYagamiany persecuted jew or atheist can always take refuge in India through existing laws. ex. dalai lama, adnan sami, were given citizenahip under existing laws. CAB is limited to just 3 countries. For other countries, existing laws are still valid. I don't think any Jews live in these 3 Islamic countries otherwose bill would have included them.

Waise watching movies hobby me likh skte hain kya??

@Katsumoto
Also, Whiplash (2014)

@Vika@Caesaryou guys are right probably. I somehow focus more on his conviction, and less about the end. His way at life may not be agreed to by many but it was his. He chose not to objectify his life by money and greed, and went out to figure out for himself what life means to him.

@Katsumotosaid inMains 2019 Preparation and Discussion Thread:

Please suggest some motivational movies...

watch amravati ki kathaiyan series on YouTube. Not motivational but it will relax your mind.

@CaesarProbably if you watch art movies it may help. Or maybe the old ones like The Guide. Something more specific like genre based may be better than just "watching movies."
Can easily watch a few interviews of Indian directors to gain perspective in film-making. These insights may then be shared with the Board.
But in an interview you might not be asked as well.

@kaushik8890liked your art on role of oppo in CAB. In this one, mention could be made of SC's cancellation of 2G spectrum alloted to telecom companies(left companies with debt & also one of the reasons for rising NPA in banking sector.)

I'd suggest Newton. Rajkumar Rao is the actor, and I found it extraordinarily simple yet an intense experience. It's a must for anyone who wishes to be a public servant, and not just a government officer

@Caesarthanks bro.
From what I read, cancellation of licenses did not create any NEW debts. The issue was pending in litigation since 2005.
Please correct me if I am wrong.

@Chanakyayup.. Newton movie is awesome

aap toh sacred games wale "Guruji" nazar aa rahe hai... thoda gyan diyo bhai... i am listening... must be related to design of thermo nuclear device...

@MadamSir ok thanks yaar

Thanks everyone for your suggestions...i am thinking of writing watching movies in daf if qualified for interview...

@duster2019speaking purely from the legal and constitutional angle, I think it would be difficult for the act to stand judicial scrutiny. While intelligible differentia is for all to see and the state would demonstrate rational nexus with object sought to be achieved by couching it in humanitarian paradigm, I think the major challenge is to withstand the "effects test". From RC Cooper to Benett Coleman to Maneka Gandhi, SC has time and again emphasised that it is not the object of the legislation but the effects that it will have on FRs that will determine constitutionality of a legislation.

What goes in favour of the state is the presumption of constitutionality. While certain classifications are inherently suspect (eg. race based in the US and one can argue that grounds exist for caste, religion to be considered inherently suspect in india), Indian (last I knew) legal system doesn't allow a strict scrutiny test.
