Rajneeti is not only Mahabharata‚ but also the Godfather. Despite knowing the Mahabharata or Godfather‚ one is

I first watched this film two years ago when I saw it in the library DVD shelve. I found the concept of babies interesting since they are adorable and tiny‚ but watching it with a symbolic interaction perspective has given me an insight that I did not have the first time I watched it. Even though all the babies were born to different social environments and economic statuses‚ the parents wanted their child to be safe and provided what they perceived to be the best basic needs.
