lled Pehlu Khan. All news channels flashed this piece of information as all 6 accused in the lynching case walked free on Wednesday. We saw, yet again, that disturbing video which had made us all say "I am Hindustan and I am ashamed". There has been much discussion and debate about who killed Pehlu Khan if all the accused were set free, even when there are videos all over the internet and six people seen in the act. As cases of mob lynching are post-mortemed from drawing rooms to discussion threads on social media, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap made sure it did not go unheard or unseen. He made sure, with Sacred Games 2, that even though his open letter to the Prime Minister of India might have been tossed aside as 'overreaction', he hit people where it hurts the most: with entertainment. With a web series as popular as Sacred Games.
Netflix India dropped eight new episodes of the series at the stroke of midnight on August 15 this year. And the series might receive flak for its pace and lack of action, but where it hits the nail on the head is in political symbolism. Kashyap knows what he needs to show. Kashyap knows how to show it. The filmmaker makes a cracker of a political comment on India of the day with his newest series of episodes, the directing credits of which he shares with Masaan maker Neeraj Ghaywan.
So Kashyap and Ghaywan make sure one of the most important scenes in this season of Sacred Games is the one with a Muslim youth being lynched. As the boy falls to the blows of the cricket bats, with a pagdi clad Sartaj Singh looking at him in helplessness, raucous laughter pierces the air around him. A Sikh man, staring at the face of a Muslim boy, as life slowly oozes out of his wounds. Sartaj is the conscience of the common man, who wants to help this boy, but is himself pinned to the ground. The Hindu majority lift their bats and sticks in victory. At having finished off yet another man from the margins who dared to hit out at them for being shamed for his religion.
