I think I will start making Chhota Bheem incorrect quotes.

Because nobody else does...

[captain1unikitty]

List of shows! (ANIMATED)

Might try to watch maybe because I need to watch something new at least.

Author (one of my childhood shows I want to see some interesting episodes)

Ninjago (I have seen it but I’m still thinking about it since they kept on adding a lot to it in newer seasons, the og stuff is good)

Franklin (iconic to me since it was chill)

Slugterra (YO anyone else remember this show, only unsure if the rest of the seasons come in English)

The owl house (yeah I missed out lol)

Anphibia (also missed out but I now feel like I need to see it)

Unicorn academy (just to finish up season one and then season two, it’s actually really good)

Gravity Falls (yes, I’m gunna finally see it)

Murder Drones (yeah I didn’t get to it yet but I guess I should now before everyone dies down)

Unicorn: warriors eternal (just need to finish it)

Chhota bheem (some show from India I found online but it’s hard to understand them in the English dub since they have kind of heavy accents) (EDIT: informed it’s more for younger audiences, I mean I am fine with it but I’ll keep it on hold since maybe I can find something better)

Elena of avador (even though it was a small joke because I have an oc with a similar name but I heard it’s actually good) also Central American culture I’m into but most things center around Mexico (hope one day something will go to the other countries like Guatemala)

Avatar the last airbender (need to see more!!)

There are probably a lot I’m missing here, also if anyone else has a good series, you can recommend one to me (also I’m 18, so you can recommend some adult animated series, only I know it’s a bit rare to come across a good series but hopefully there’s hidden gems out there)

today's generation will never know the hype around chhota bheem, and the fear of kirmada's laughter

[aisling-writes]

Why the real villain of Chhota Bheem was King Indravarma: A meta-analysis of who he really was.

Alternative Title: An episode where I go nuts and have zero backing behind my essay.

(A note to the readers: This essay does not take into account the existence of the Mighty Little Bheem show. The matter at discussion is purely based on the Chhota Bheem show only.)

Most Indian Children born in the late 2000s can easily recognize the musical ensemble of the theme song of Pogo’s crowned jewel: Chhota Bheem. Eyes were glued to the television and clock ticks were memorised for when the show would start because Chhota Bheem to them was not just an animated show; it was an expression, a memory, a piece of childhood, if you will.

And yet, while watching the show through an “adult” lens, Chhota Bheem leaves a bitter taste in the mouth.

Why?

The answer, I personally believe, is of two aspects. One would be the obvious irritation in how King Indravarma ruled the land, and the other is about how Chhota Bheem was a Mary-Sue and how the show perhaps needed to be styled around Kalia, his imperfections and his character arc. (But that’s for another time.)

Let’s focus on the topic at hand: King Indravarma. He was, bluntly put, a stupid King.

Imagine a King as such in the real world. A King who had no strong Military, who constantly relied on a 10-year-old for any trivial matter whether it was an external threat to the kingdom instead of sending out an army, did not invest in new technology for the betterment of his people and used it for personal gain. The list can go on and on.

The argument presented here is that King Indravarma as a villain is not a bad evil person but rather how his aloofness was the one reason his kingdom suffered. Being a “villain” does not always necessitate violence and crude language; all it requires is to bring harm to others. And King Indravarma, indirectly, does that.

----------------

“Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice.  Dietrich Bonhoeffer ----------------

On the other hand, we can theorize that King Indravarma was merely “acting” to be stupid and always had ulterior motives behind his every move. This argument is also proven along the way when I dissect his character in this essay.

In fact, this essay reaches a conclusion that King Indravarma was a strategist who was…. stupid. A perfect balance. (But not for Dholakpur.)

--

   I.Outsmarting a kid; getting outsmarted by the world.

When scouring through the deep dark pages of the internet, one question plagued me: How did Chhota Bheem get his powers?

Yes, it’s common knowledge that eating a Laddoo gives him super-human strength but how does he get such a power in the first place? Alas, that’s not an answer that the cartoon canon can answer but it is integral to the next question that follows: How did King Indravarma realize Chhota Bheem had such powers? Maybe he never found out because had he, he definitely would’ve chosen to make all his citizens the perfect citizens. (A strategist, remember?)

It’s natural for any parent to desire the safe protection of their child from the dangers of the world. As seen in Spider-Man, Aunt May chooses to protect the identity of Peter as his alter-ego and would go to any extent for his safe keeping. But why didn’t Bheem’s mother do the same? Why didn’t she hide the powers of Bheem?

Or maybe, she did.

She did try to hide it but somehow it reached the ears of King Indravarma. And King Indravarma strategicallydecided to use it to his advantage.

And I say strategic because, by all rights, Bheem deserved official employment. He worked as a protector of the kingdom more than the soldiers ever did.  He could’ve been a member of the royal guards, or a leader of it too. But instead, the king always played along with the HA-HA Bheem- is- just- a- loyal- citizen- who -helps- sometimes card and gave him no remuneration.

This could’ve had two motives: An economic perspective where he didn’t have to pay Bheem for his services and/or a jealous King perspective where he wanted to avoid a 1789 France Bastille-Storming situation. Empowering Bheem and giving him more administrative power on top of the physical power he already had would make him a dangerous weapon. He was already charismatic and loved by the villagers; it would only be a matter of time until they felt that Bheem would be a better leader than the King himself.

The king further added on to this plan by employing some of the most useless soldiers in his army ever therefore making it seem that the King did try to save his kingdom, but it was to no avail. And at some point, he stopped using the soldiers (probably dismissed them, thus saving even more money for his personal gain) and purely relied on Bheem, a kid who he didn’t even have to pay! (And Bheem, being a “kid” did not have the sense of asking for remuneration as well.)[1]

Smart, isn’t he? (King Indravarma, I mean.)

But also, stupid.

By following this method, he made sure that the one key asset that Dholakpur had was revealed to the entire world. He placed the country in danger from threats all the time! (And I truly mean one asset because by its looks Dholakpur had nothing else to offer. The crops often struggled due to pests, the landscape was unappealing to the eyes, it had no tourist’s income etc.) It’s truly surprising how Dholakpur was not already overtaken by some other colonizer or king because all they had to worry about was defeating one kid. Just one kid. (Yes, he’s strong and what not, but Bheem’s got to have some limit?)

-

      II. Economic drain for… what exactly?

----------------

“Th’ abuse of greatness is when it disjoins remorse from power.” Brutus in Julius Caesar (2.1.19-20) ----------------

In one episode of Chhota Bheem, King Indravarma had no qualms or shame in announcing that the kingdom had no new bicycles for a bicycle race when the neighbouring kingdom had brand new, shiny bicycles and therefore, Bheem and his friends had to manage with the old bicycles. Either the kingdom was not financially stable to accommodate the purchase of such bicycles, or the king lied that the kingdom had no money.

Let’s explore both the views, shall we?

The kingdom being too “broke” to purchase bicycles implies how financially unsecure it is! Perhaps the kingdom was knee-deep in debts or just refused to spend whatever reserves it had on importing foreign goods. Maybe the kingdom had an import substitution policy (similar to what the post-British India followed) but was not able to implement it seeing how the kingdom had an agrarian economy.

Which brings us to the question: How is an economy expected to grow without any investment in additional technology?

The only source of revenue that was noticed were from the fairs conducted, the crops reaped and Tun-Tun Mossi’s Laddoo sale. And as anyone with two eyes can note: It is not enough. The policies followed by King Indravarma were dangerous to Dholakpur in the short-run and long-run. Inflation was just a door’s knock away for the citizens of Dholakpur! People would’ve been forced to lead even more horrendous lives and forced to spend a bucketful of cash but a pocketful of things! (Again, how the kingdom survived is such a mystery.)

On the other hand, maybe the King just wanted to hold all the gold reserves to himself and did not wish to splurge on any investment in technology for the kingdom. Which again proves how he is a stupid strategist because if he wanted more money, the country needs development. More jobs, more employment brings about higher level of income, GDP and better lifestyle. How are the people supposed to pay taxes to the King if he doesn’t provide them enough opportunity to make money for paying the taxes? It would’ve been more understandable if he invested in their advancement first and then participated in red-tapism and what not.

(Idiot.)

The King, in my opinion, is begging for a Marie Antoinette situation by running around in gold chains and necklaces while his people slog and suffer.

-

     III.   Diplomacy at its finest. Not.

----------------

To say nothing, especially when speaking, is half the art of diplomacy. -Will Durant

----------------

The third, and final facet of why King Indravarma was the real villain is perhaps the shortest and the simplest. [2]

There’s no doubt why Dholakpur was often plagued with terrorists and external threats and challenges from other kingdoms than the neighbouring countries: King Indravarma’s tongue.

Instead of rallying allies and forming alliances with other countries, the king often chose to goad other rulers into competitions of which-kingdom-is-better game which is humorous to think because Dholakpur had no additional advantage except …Bheem. The entire fragile ego of Indravarma’s was built on nothing but a nine-year old boy!

The demise of the King’s pride would be swift and sweet the day Bheem decides to move out of the godforsaken kingdom.

Conclusion

“It is unwise to let a man who isn't king sit on a throne for too long.” ― Costanza Casati, Clytemnestra

Thus, I bring this essay to its end. A hyper-fixation of my childhood has now become a piece of media that will forever make me think of this 1600+ word essay that brings no added meaning to this world.

To you, Bheem, I wish that you escape from the clutches of Indravarma’s stupid reign. Perhaps if the King was just evil I could’ve respected him more. Alas, stupidity is a turn-off.

To you, Dholakpur, I wish that you understand that it’s better to have no king than have Indravarma as a king. Rise and revolt, fellow comrades. History would look kindly upon you.

And to you, King Indravarma, thank you for spoiling my favourite cartoon.

[1] A further note to be added is that the king was a frequent enabler of Child Manipulation because he always made it seem that Bheem voluntarily decided to choose to fight for the kingdom and was not requested by the King. [2] This argument is in reference to the cycle competition that the King engages in with Pehelwanpur.

[mazhaiyil-kaadhal]

They made Chhota Bheem Live Action.

[miano-oscarwilde]

Cartoons from my country, India. We are this. It greatly differs from how foreign animation depicts us. We have a diverse culture and we're seen through a narrow lens. Some of my favourite Indian Cartoons-

1. Tenali Raman

2. Akbar and Birbal

3. Krishna

4. Pinaki and Happy the bhoot bandhus

5. Roll no. 21

6. Krish Trish and Baltiboy

7. Pupi

8. Simple samosa

9. Chhota Bheem

There's more but these are my top favourite and I love Indian Cartoons .

We have all skin types and colours too but we're all black and brown in foreign animation. There's more to us than snake charming and scary pujas. I hope that it will change one day.

[krishna-sangini]

Can't believe cartoons like 'Selfie with Bajrangi' and 'Little Singham' are going to be nostalgia for today's kids :)

[rizzmin]

[theanagyakaari]

Heya how's everyone?

I don't rlly know what to put here. Uh.. This is my desi blog. I am a 17 year old indian girl. (you can call me miku!!!) Giving jee in two months. I do have another blog but I'd rather not disclose it here cause I wanna keep my indian self different from the self that interacts with foreign content.

I'm a big fan of anime and cartoons. Obsessed with berserk lately. Getting into japanese pop culture too. And listen to shit tons of music that changes genres every minute(i got a long ass playlist so if anyone wants song recs or give song recs hmu)

Looking for desi moots n' frens. I don't rlly have like a dni but i'd likely not be your friend if you like calling yourself a misogynist or misandrist n stuff.

Additional yapping about me that you don't rlly need to read i just added it

So I used to have a desi acc before too under the same name I just stopped using it stopped associating with like desi stuff n shit since desiblr seemed to be filled with radfem ideology at the time. I don't rlly know if it's better or worse now (i hope it's the former) but now i don't think i'm gonna delete this blog but like i'll stop posting and block the tags for a while if it gets too much

Honestly i never rlly felt that connected with the indian / desi side of my ever since i was little. I used to watch foreign cartoons, didn't have much friends and was mostly raised on the internet (like ofc i wasn't completely detached i used to watch chhota bheem and motu patlu for a while, disney series and stuff) but as i'm growing older it's like i'm losing more and more interest in indian produced media. It's not like it bothers me that much anymore as it used to last year but yeah sometimes insecurities come up when I'm talking to my peers
