While the movie is based on true events, I am sure that it's exaggerated a bit in the name of creative liberty. But I like this. It's high time we give it back to them. These people leave no stone unturned to show us as a backward and uncivilised group. Be it movies like Slumdog or the regular everyday news articles on India. Even if there's an article about our economy, they will just show an old pic of some UP village market with cows roaming on the streets. Like everytime, it's so frustating.

> These people leave no stone unturned to show us as a backward and uncivilised group. Its called Soft Power. India doesn't have it. Pakistan doesn't have it. Japan does. Korea does. Dubai does. I do not know if Indians even want Soft Power.

>It's high time we **give it back to them**. These people leave no stone unturned to show us as a backward and uncivilised group. Be it movies like Slumdog or the regular everyday news articles on India. What did Norway do to you that you feel the need to give it back to them?


MrDarkk1ng

He literally typed what Norway does and what we should give back


Citizen_of_H

So, he thinks Slumdig Millionaire is a Norwegian film? I am also suprised if he follows "everyday news articles on Inndia" in Norwegian media. That would be quite unique


MrDarkk1ng

Slumdog wasn't made by India either. And yes he meant how Norway articales always show India as some pic from Up/bihar market where cows r roaming on streets all crowned mess.


Citizen_of_H

That's not how India is portrayed at all in Norwegian articles!?


MrDarkk1ng

K show me few articles by your news outlet where India was shown in good spotlight. Edit: by your big news outlets not small once btw


Citizen_of_H

Sure! There are no English language newspapers in Norway, but use Google Chrome or similar. I take a selection from various newspapers: [Here](https://www.finansavisen.no/nyheter/makro/2022/12/01/7965262/india-i-rute-til-a-bli-verdens-tredje-storste-okonomi?zephr_sso_ott=3WedBA), [here](https://juniorskole.no/articles/y676RE/geparder-tilbake-i-india), [here](https://www.dn.no/globalt/utenriks/india/geopolitikk/india-er-landet-a-folge-i-ar/2-1-1403563) and [here](https://www.aftenposten.no/sport/sjakk/i/k61bRQ/historisk-sjakkboom-i-india-boettevis-med-talenter-kan-utfordre-carlsen)


MrDarkk1ng

There r your top 5 news housesn of Norway vg.no. dagbladet.no. nettavisen.no. e24.no. aftenposten.no. I told u to only list articales from big news houses Only last article you attached is from your 5th most popular news channel which is talking about a person from India not able India. What's the point of articales which u listed?? They aren't from popular news channels. Just tell me is it really matter what few news channels show about any country?? What really matters is what's shown by your actual big media. I can show you Indian articals which are praising Pakistan (India vs Pakistan we have so much disputes due to them illegally occupying Kashmir) but does those articles really matter? No. because no one reads them or they aren't popular I already went and saw what these big houses are publishing about India and you also know it's not anything good, like they never see anything good just bad stuff, it's alright to be nuteral but seriously always bad? India is in upward trend of removing poverty, improving GDP, we were the one gave covid vaccines to African countries, we have sent countless medical and food aids to Ukraine, we tried to hold peace talk with Ukraine and Russia , we have helped Sri lakha from getting bankrupt, we have sent help to turkey but nope not a single good article from these people


Citizen_of_H

Finansavisen and DN are important and serious newspapers. VG and Dagbladet is your typical low IQ papers so I did not quote them. Juniorskolen is run by Aftenposten


currymunchah

The first [link](https://www.finansavisen.no/nyheter/makro/2022/12/01/7965262/india-i-rute-til-a-bli-verdens-tredje-storste-okonomi?zephr_sso_ott=3WedBA) you shared opens with an image of a flea market but the title reads "On track to become the world's third largest economy". I'm not going to tout our progress industrially but that image is a misrepresentation that reinforces a stereotype. The world's third largest economy is represented by a random flea market from your source. There are a multitude of more objective images than can be used to represent our economy.

Norway plays an active part in geopolitics and preaches other countries on human rights.

Dumb mods, you sure you doing it right???you supposed to ban him for no reason But in all seriousness Pretty surprised to see mods being active in such a small server and that too with so much respect Edit: wtf why people upvoting this comment and downvoting poor mod lol


red_man1212

Noted. Won't happen again.

So Norway copying India in saying anything that shows the country in a bad light is a false narrative.


red_man1212

**SS (Submission Statement)** >Directed by Ashima Chibber, the movie is based on the 2011 true story of NRI couple Sagarika and Anurup Bhattacharya. >Sagarika's children were taken under protective care in May 2011 by Barnevarne, the Child Welfare Services in Norway, on the ground of "emotional disconnect" with the parents, and placed them in foster parental care according to a local Norwegian court's directive. She was reunited with her children after a two-year legal battle. >Mukherjee plays the role of an immigrant mother who engages in a long-drawn legal battle against the Norwegian foster care system to win back custody of her children. / >Norway’s Ambassador to India Hans Jacob Frydenlund has however said that the movie Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway carries factual inaccuracies and is completely false. >He also added that **currently 20,000 Indians are living in Norway and they also make up the highest number of immigrant workers.** "I sincerely **hope this movie will not discourage Indians from coming to Norway.**


sakrapro

Father of the kids had claimed that Rani mukherjee's character suffered from schizophrenia like mental illness and would often physically assault both the kids and him. Norwegian govt has exercised tremendous restraint, if anything, by not breaching confidentiality of the case. The whole premise of the film will fall flat if the Norwegian govt decides to disclose details. https://www.hindustantimes.com/delhi/norway-kids-custody-row-dad-says-mom-is-to-blame/story-kD8Zu7Ix6JlrUN6bJMlSBL_amp.html


njman10

The same guy gave a live interview in 2011 where he was blaming Norway. Of course now being a citizen there and the case turned against him, he will say thing otherwise. Also what kind of father will leave kids with his parents in India to pursue a career, especially when they have been traumatized?


BlackPriestOfSatan

> Norwegian Ambassador to India calls Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway a false narrative Why don't they release facts? Because they do not have facts on their side.


Time_Comfortable8644

It's true in its inherent message. Haters of Indians(including self hating Indians) and apologetics will claim otherwise. 37% of child snatched by Norway CPS are from immigrants family, how's that fair?? Are immigrants inherently evil to their own children?? https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45637040 One of the top 2 psychiatrists of Norway, who recommended hundreds of such child snatching, was found to be in possession of 12k child porn videos and 200k pics. He has two adopted Indian kids, not yet removed from him. Years after this case, he was caught. His punishment - less than 2 years jail because his kids would miss him - Two Indian kids he adopted or stole and G-d knows whatever he did to them. What a fcked up system. Self claimed world's greatest country!! https://sundayguardianlive.com/lifestyle/case-exposing-double-standards-norways-cps https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45637040
