Bhoomi is an age old story of bad MNC and famers battling it out and offers no new solutions. Jeyam Ravi leads The farmers and Roni Roy the head of MNC global collective. Battleground is Tamil Nadu. Film ends with the public buying up all MNC produced stuff from retail stores and burn it up. A sort of swadeshi movement.
Ravi the celebrated NASA astronaut from Tamil Nadu tells a global media about his Mission Mars and how his team had made the planet into a fertile land and started farming. Now that it takes time for the seeds sown in Mars to bear fruit, Ravi takes a month’s holiday to go with his mother to his village. Mother( Saranya ) and son alight from the flight in a tight clinch to show the bonding. Everybody at the airport salutes him. In the village , his childhood friend ( Nidhi Agarwal) behave like a lunatic, other friends crack stale jokes it looks like a family entertainer in the offing.
Now director takes a different path. Ravi finds that farming in Mars is easier than Earth. MNC have set up industries that are depleting the ground water and farmers are facing drought. Collector onwards nobody wants to bail out the debt ridden farmers. Ravi is drawn to it as his uncle is also affected farmer. Then you have a Sterlite kind of police firing, suicide by farmer , a corrupt minister and seeing Ravi gaining ground, head of Global MNC Inc comes in a chopper and lands on a Highway . MNC chief and Ravi lock horns. People support wins. Quite Difficult to find any good work by anybody in any department..
TAKEAWAY : Car companies from abroad come here to manufacture because back home it is banned as it is water consuming. 13 families control the World economy
Reality Check: Film n MNC exploitation gets released only on 100% videshi Disney HotStar.
