Cultural aggression creating demand for Indian goods in Bangladesh

[dray]

We only share language with people like rain man. Other than that all are different. There is a reason why people like rain man are welcomed in India and Indians want to get rid of Bengalis from Assam and west bengal. This rain man is also different from his fellow kinds. For example he is known as Bangal in west Bengal and west Bengalis are known Ghoti. And since when all Indians started to talk in Bangla or worship Durga? He is different from rest of India.

Indians don't want to get rid of Bengalis from Assam and West Bengal as long as they are Indians, we Indians only want to get rid of the illegal Bangladeshis immigrants coming here and creating a social and law & order crisis. There is no difference between a ghoti and a bangal, they both are Bengalis, West Bengalis, and Indians. Check how many Chief Ministers of West Bengal are/were bangals.

Durga is an Eastern non aryan tribal goddess. Many Hindus can respect but dont worship it. Many such kinds of local goddesses like Durga can exist around other places in India in a similar form of Durga or other. But Durga Puja culture is unique in Eastern part. Other puja festivals like Rath Yatra will be also unique in Eastern part.

Goddess Durga is very much revered and worshiped in all parts of India. Where did you get this idea? Sri Ganesha puja is a big festival in Mumbai, but that doesn't mean rest of India don't worship lord Ganesha. "Navratri" is a big festival in north Indian states like Gujrat, and that is a Maa Durga festival. Vaishno Devi is also Maa Durga, barring Laxmi and Saraswati, almost all prime Hindu goddesses that you know by different names including Maa Kali, is Maa Durga, or "AdiShakti".

Check this link for notable temples of Maa Durga in different names all across India, and the list is not exhaustive, it missed lots of notable temples. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durga

Tell me, do you also worship, Manasa and Bonbibi?

Maa Manasa and Bonbibi are not the prime goddess of Hinduism, and Bonbibi is worshiped in Sundarban areas where people going into the jungle for a living worship Bonbibi to keep them safe, 'bon' means jungle and Bonbibi, bondurga or bondevi is a guardian goddess of the forests, in fact she is considered Maa Durga only in a local form.

BDians have similarity with Arabs and their culture?
Other than majority of you being followers of Islam like Arabs I do not see much similarity.
Trust me on that.
And I am not sure how would Arabs will react to your statement.



From your food, to music, to literature, you are so similar to West Bengal, and why not? Afterall you were a part of a single entity called Greater Bengal not so long back.
Rabindranath Tagore who wrote national anthem for both the countries is a testimony to this.

But then it's okay not to accept these facts.
It is upto you to cogitate.
Do not wish to take this discussion further.

You like engaging with the brain dead, don't you? I know it's funny at times.

You know i dont like it. I dont have the patience.
I rarely visit this part of PDF and trust me i am shocked at the logic put forward here.
But i'll leave it at that.

 

[SarthakGanguly]

Tell me, do you also worship, Manasa and Bonbibi?

Dear Mumeen, since religious identity is being called upon I thought this is the best way to gain your attention.

Know Ambaji? Famous in West India.
Know Maa Durga/Vaisno Devi worship in Kashmir?
Maa Bhavani in central India?
Maa Bagavathy in south India?

No?

Then why not leave commenting about something you know nothing?

কোন পথে বিনোদন?
মে ৩০, ২০১৬

মানুষের মৌলিক বিনোদন এখন চার দেয়ালে বন্দী। অসুস্থ এবং অসুন্দর বিনোদনের জোয়ারে হারাতে বসেছে স্থিতিশীল, সৃজনশীল, রুচিশীল বিনোদন। অস্থির হয়ে উঠেছে সংস্কৃতির সব ক্ষেত্র। সবকিছুতে অস্থিরতা বিরাজ করছে। এক সময় বিনোদনের একমাত্র মাধ্যম ছিল বিটিভি, সিনেমা হল ও রেডিও। তখন টিভির সামনে বসলে রিমোট প্রয়োজন হতো না। সিনেমা হলে গিয়ে ছবি দেখতো, সময়মতো রেডিও শুনতো। কিন্তু এখন ২০১৬ সাল। টিভি চ্যানেল হয়েছে ২৭টি, রেডিও হয়েছে ১০ টিরও বেশি। অনেক সিনেমা হল বন্ধ হয়েছে। এতো সব বিনোদনের অগ্রযাত্রায় কেন আমরা হতাশ? কেন আমরা বিনোদন বঞ্চিত? একজন দর্শক কোন একটি নাটক পুরোপুরি দেখছেনা। মনে রাখতে পারছেনা শিল্পীর নাম, গান, নাটক কিংবা চলচ্চিত্র, এমনকি রেডিওর অনুষ্ঠানমালা, কেন এই দৈন্যদশা? বিজ্ঞাপন বিরতি দর্শকদের বিরক্ত করে তুলেছে। বিরতিহীন বিজ্ঞাপনে অতিষ্ঠ দর্শকশ্রোতা।

হিন্দি সিরিয়াল দেখে প্রতিদিন ঘটছে আত্মহত্যা, পরকীয়া, পারিবারিক কলহ, অবিশ্বাস, শাড়ি গহনার প্রতিযোগিতা। এই অন্ধ অনুকরণে বিষাক্ত হয়ে উঠেছে পরিবার ও সমাজ। বিনোদন থেকে আনন্দ খুঁজতে গিয়ে পারিবারিক বিনোদন এখন বিষাদে রূপ নিয়েছে। ইতিমধ্যে উচ্চ আদালতে ভারতীয় তিনটি চ্যানেল বাংলাদেশে বন্ধ রাখার জন্য রিট করা হয়েছে। দেখা যাক বিষয়টি শেষ পর্যন্ত কোথায় গিয়ে দাঁড়ায়।

জরিপ করে দেখা গেছে প্রায়শই প্রায়শই কেউ বাংলাদেশের চ্যানেল দেখেন না। সবাই ভারতীয় চ্যানেল স্টার প্লাস, স্টার জলসা, সনি টিভি, জি-সিনেমা, জিটিভি বাংলা দেখেন। গত দুই ঈদে বাংলাদেশি চ্যানেলের একটি অনুষ্ঠানও দেখেন নি, এমন সংখ্যা শতকরা ৮০% এরও বেশি। এই যদি হয় পরিসংখ্যান তাহলে কি দাঁড়ায় আপনি বিবেচনা করুন।

দেশকে ভালবাসি, সংস্কৃতিকে ভালবাসি? এমন এমন নাটক হচ্ছে, যেখানে স্ক্রিপ্ট পর্যন্ত থাকে না। যিনি প্রযোজক, তিনি লেখক, আবার তিনি পরিচালক, বৌ-মেয়ে অভিনেত্রী, ছেলে ব্যবস্থাপনার দায়িত্বে থাকেন। তাহলে ফলাফল কি দাঁড়ায় একবার ভেবে দেখুন। স্ক্রিপ্ট এর নামে একই কথা একই কাহিনী হরহামেশা চলছে। আসছি, যাচ্ছি, খাইতেছি, কেমন আছো, ভালবাসি, যাবনা, তুমি পাগল, তোমাকে ছাড়া ভাল লাগেনা, মেরে ফেলবো, দেখে নিবো, কালকে দেখা হবে ইত্যাদি সংলাপ এখন সব নাটকেই অহরহ। কিছু কিছু বড় লোকের ছেলে বাপের টাকা খরচ করে নাটক বানাচ্ছে আর তাই এই বাজে অবস্থা। ভাল নাটক হচ্ছে না, ভাল স্ক্রিপ্ট পাওয়া যাচ্ছে না। ভাল কাজে অর্থ, শ্রম, মেধা ও সময় ৪টি জিনিস প্রয়োজন। একটির কমতি হলে ফলাফল খারাপ। সাধনা না করে পাওয়া জিনিস স্থায়ী হয়না, আলোর মুখ দেখেনা।

That's strange.
Just 60 years back your country shared the same culture as our's. How can one forget their roots?

COUGH, COUGH......BULL SH*T......shared what culture? Food.....nope, we love beef. Language.....nope, majority of indians speak hindi and the West Bengalis speak a different dialect which is differing from ours each year. Religion, nope obviously...........

Your roots and our roots are not the same, period.

Agree to your last line, and that's why we don't consider you guys Bengali.

Now..

Stop cooking your beef in a typical Indian way with lots of spices and gravy, typically known as curry...
Stop eating all other Indian foods like daal, sabzi, roti, paratha, daalpuri, singara/samosa and typically Indian sweets like sandesh, rosogolla, etc.

Stop wearing typically Indian dresses. Stop speaking a language that came from Sanskrit, and very similar to Indian languages, especially the north Indian language group. Stop reciting our poetry, stop singing our song. And yes stop watching our TV programs and TV shows, we didn't make these for your consumption, that too illegally.

In short, you are different, so stop copying us.

Btw, think about changing your religion also, or at least the sect, because most Bangladeshis (if not all) follow the Indian sects of Islam.

"indian sect of islam".........now Sunni Islam is a indian religion..... I didn't think it was possible for anyone to be so stupid, but you proved me wrong you managed it, well done. Oh and we'll cook, eat, speak, dance and sing etc etc any way we want....come and stop us if you can.

Whats bad with some indian commercials or soap operas?
ATleast your homegrown stuff will overcome this "aggression" with better quality.ppl will always choose the superior offering, unless you dont give them a choice.

Last time i saw bdeshi commercials- it was all about akeej beedis , some cigg ads and pran flavored fruit juice?

Islam has strong Semitic / Arabic roots. So I said our culture is mix of Bengali and Arabic. Religion comes from Arabia but we belong to Bengal region. Arabic is our religious divine language and Bengali is our mother tongue. We are not same as West Bengalis. Similar but not same. Arabs came in Bengal using Chittagong port. Many Arabs married indigenous Bengali Hindu and Buddhist girls to spread Islam in the region. You call it 'love jihad' in India. In reality same thing happened in Bengal which was far far away from Arabian peninsula. There was no other effective reason for Muslim majority in East Bengal other than marrying indigenous Hindu / Buddhist people in hope to spread Islam. Our culture has shaped up differently than West Bengal. Have you heard their Bengali accent? Its totally different dialect with heavy influence of Sanskrit words like Jol, Lonka, nimontron, ashirbad. We don't use such words in Bangladesh. We say pani, morich, dawat,doa respectively. Our Bengali has strong Arabic and Persian influence. We only share the script with West Bengalis but our verbal language is not same.

Look at the Bengal region.

Deobandi, Barelvi etc. are...

whats with the arabic roots.
The arabs treat you like this video. Also i guess SA has banned all bangladesh workers

It would be better if you guys stop trying to be like us and stop eating what we eat, stop wearing what we wear, stop watching what we watch...because you are not us, that part you also agree.

And you watch our programs, cinemas illegally, the artists, directors, producers gain nothing out of it. Stop doing that, it is called piracy.

 

[C130]

is this hindu stealth subversion??

seems like something straight from the cold war.

i think it's still happening in the U.S subversion that is whether from communists or zionists.

 

[jetray]

We have similarities with West Bengal and oher Eastern states of India but as a whole we hardly have similarity with India in culture due to socio-economic-religious culture of Bangladesh.

Very true infact it is eastern India which copied bangladesh's culture, file a complaint for IPR violation.

or worship Durga? He is different from rest of India.

You know too much dude.

Yeah true bangladesh shares only one of the language bengali but there are 20+ more languages of which having originated from sanskrit ,bengali is just one of them ! for eternity or unless you do time travel and change it there is no escape.

This was also the reason for the Khalistan movement.

Nonsense , punjab is and was the prosperous state having one of high per capita in India.
