OUTSOURCED

Saw this movie tonight... Very nice movie... I like these types of movies which are easy on the brain and heart when u see it and not much to recall once the movie is done... But this movie, though easy on the brain when seeing it, leaves a lot to recall after its done... The reason being, I can connect to this movie...

Starting from the whole concept of outsourcing, where most of us have a distinct role to play to the country where the movie is based - India - there are a lot of things which we can relate to... Not all the aspects of India shown in the movie show India in good light, but we cannot deny that these aspects are true...

1 - Not all call centers have the best facilities setup...
2 - Indians do not find it important to respect personal boundaries of the people whom they care about...
3 - The view about how losing a job is such a small thing for call center employees though shocked me...
4 - Poverty can shock the hell out of visitors to India, but the fact that anyone can be happy even within those circumstances shocks them even more...
5 - Some people still consider INDIA = I'm Not Doing It Again...

Having said all that, this movie really touched me, especially the scene when the staff manages to meet their targets inspite of working on the terrace of a flooded building... Worth a watch definitely... Just dont expect anything special once the movie is over...
