The Motorcycle Diaries
Mindblowing! I am talking of the stupendous movie "The Motorcycle Diaries" based on the life of Che Guevara. And I bet, following the movie, most of you would be spending over an hour googling on this revolutionary, whose image adorns the walls and T-shirts of every rebel on this planet.
The movie explores the romaticism of adventure in Latin America. Guevara, the physician and Alberto, his biochemist friend decide to embark on an 8000 km motorcycle trip, trying to realise a dream. Beneath the backdrop of the stunning South American landscape, Che grapples with the poverty and the oppression suffered by the natives. And decides to take up their cause. A true hero!
Just the kind of movie to make one think the true purpose of life.

Hi! Tejas, I've heard of this guy before, and one can say he's the Bhagat Singh of South America.
(Remember,
"Apnaa Kerry = Manmohan Singh"
"G. Bush = LK Advani", the election of US)
Hi Tejas,
it was very nice to see your article on che......
but what is more unfortunate is to see this great legend being used as a decorative piece on the T-shirts and other accessory items today.
