Review:

Days were passing very well of Mija and her friend Okja. They used to play in the forest, enjoy the water, have fruits until the team arrived at their home.

Mirando Corporation initiates the mission of producing genetically modified new species of the super pig to feed people. Those piglets were given to several farmers around the globe for 10 years.

Okja was part of the Super Competition and she turned to be the best. Okja was taken away by the company but Miha decided to bring Okja back and meet with Animal Liberation Front (ALF). ALF is a group of animal lovers who frees animals from slaughterhouses.

Okja and Mija have sweet bonding with each other. They are friends who share each other's feelings, despite the language barrier.

When she arrived at the slaughterhouse of Mirando Corporation, she finds the miserable situation of a large no. of pigs.

The pig was simply the thing for business. The owner of the company announces that the meat should taste very good. The company's face is really good and reality was worse. The pigs are experimented, tortured, and go through a lot of pain.

Every animal has its master with whom they feel good and secure. Animals feel bad when they are separated.

After watching the scene of the slaughterhouse, it will give ache in the heart.

Even pigs knew they are in the line of death. The man constantly gives an electric shock to the pigs.

The pig was produced for selling their meats. It was totally a business for the company. Their lives don't matter to the company.

The ALF effort for rescuing an animal is praiseworthy and it takes a great effort to work for the animal, fighting against the strong security force. But. ALF is weak with very few no. members. Rescuing animals just for humanity and stopping cruelty toward animals is a great commitment.

Mija buys Okja to take her back to home.

While returning the helpless pig watches them going out of the slaughterhouse. And, inside the slaughterhouse, as the gunshot sounds more and more, more and more pigs are murdered.


What a smart pig, to save from the misery of the slaughterhouse, the parent pig throws their baby pig to Mija from the electric wire.

The expression of the helpless pigs would melt anybody's heart. Now the baby pig is going to heaven with Okja and Mija as compared to the misery of slaughterhouse.

It's sad, Mija could only free her Okja She should have saved all the pigs.

 I was thinking, she should save all the pigs, and make the company close the project.

The animal cannot express their feeling but everything can be understood from their expression. The animal cannot express their feeling doesn't mean they do not have feelings.

Kalki 2898 AD (2024)- The movie gave me goosebumps

 Kalki 2898 AD I recently watched the movie Kalki 2898 AD, and it's fantastic and worth watching. I wish I had watched it earlier. I want to comment on something about a particular part of the movie; also, I love some aspects of the movie.  The Mahabharat is a holy story where there is Lord Krishna. Such a holy story should not be contaminated with our imagination and extend it. Because we humans are nothing in front of Lord Krishna. On the other hand, some of the scenes gave me goosebumps. The Character of Ashwathama, played by Amitabh Bachchan, fighting sequences are amazing. As I have heard, the heights of Humans of the past yuga were greater than those of average humans of Kali Yuga. Bhairab also mentioned his height in the movie. In the movie, there is a place named Complex. The place Complex reminds me of the movie Alita: Battle Angel 2019. Ashwathama was on the side of the Kauravas in the Mahabharata War. Here he is in a different character, which is really great. There...
