Hi

thanx for sharing this. It comes at a very interesting point in my life. I am in the process of writing a paper on challenges to development communication in India, as part of my media course in Denmark and have been reading about the popular teleserial of the 1980s HUM LOG. Apparently, that was inspired by Mexican teleserials. The trend was set by Simplemente Maria, a peruvian telenovela wherein the main character, a woman, becomes rich by sewing.
I hope a serial like this would be produced in India and set an example for the removal of caste prejudices.

I am American, married to a brazilian, and have been watching Caminho das Indias with much interest.
I am especially interested to know if it has been broadcast in India, if Indian people have had a chance to watch it, and what are the opinions of the novela?

OLÁ CHRITIANE, IF YOUR HUSBAND IS BRAZILIAN, THEN HE CAN TRANSLATE TO YOU MY COMMENT.
A NOVELA "CAMINHO DAS INDIAS" NUNCA SERÁ TRANSMITIDA NA INDIA DEVIDO A QUESTÕES CULTURAIS DO MESMO MODO QUE TAMBEM SÃO POUCOS OS FILMES AMERICANOS TRANSMITIDOS NO PAÍS.
CENAS DE INTIMIDADE FISICA ENTRE CASAIS JAMAIS SÃO VEICULADAS POR LÁ.
NÃO HÁ QUALQUER CENA DE BEIJO OU SEXO NOS FILMES LOCAIS. NÃO HÁ A FIGURA DO CASAL DE NAMORADOS NAS RUAS OU EM QUALQUER OUTRO LUGAR.
OUTRA COISA, A NOVELA FOCALIZA APENAS A VIDA NO ESTADO DO RAJASTÃO
E SE CENTRA EM COSTUMES QUE JÁ ESTÃO EM FRANCO DESUSO DEVIDO A MALDITA E NECESSÁRIA GLOBALIZAÇÃO.
ESTIVE NA INDIA POR MAIS DE 2 MESES E NUNCA ESCUTEI UM "ARE BABA" OU "BAGUAN KELIÊ". Na india cada estado tem sua propria lingua materna. E ELE FAZEM QUESTÃO DE FALAR SUA LINGUA ORIGINAL. O HINDI É UMA LINGUA SECUNDÁRIA COMO O INGLES. PARA QUAISQUER CONTATOS COMIGO USE O E-MAIL camel_51@hotmail.com.
