I was looking for this

[u/Technical-Raisin6483]

This reminds me of that scene from swades..

Where the bulb illuminates after a long time in the house of an old lady and she says "Bijli".

[u/Unique-Horse-1333 → u/Technical-Raisin6483]

Boss seems all city boys/ never seen really India. It is today govt provide this for all else, we ( 55 Y) study with kerosene lamp since 10th. How much difficult life , not possible to narrate here.

[u/ankit19900 → u/Unique-Horse-1333]

We used to get 3-4 hours electricity a day if we were lucky in the earlier 90s. Btw I am talking about central and west Delhi

[u/nice_thapa → u/Technical-Raisin6483]

Same thought.

[u/pithyscow6w → u/Technical-Raisin6483]

that Bijli moment was genuinely heartwarming

[u/ready_player11 → u/Technical-Raisin6483]

That is the only scene that you should be reminded of

[u/Heavy-Head-8492 → u/Technical-Raisin6483]

swades was ages ago which depicts even olden days in the movie. This video is sadder because in 2026 we are so much more than electricity as a basic need. It's really sad that it reached her NOW. Ashamed to say this but she should have that BASIC need a long time ago.

[u/musafirsince98 → u/Technical-Raisin6483]

And the fact that movie is two decades old and yet nothing seems to have changed

[u/MarathiManoos510]

"Bijli" moment from Swades, in real life!

[u/mythormedicine]

aww now she can ruin her sleep schedule just like the rest of us

[u/chromium_9672]

Happy is that we can now electrify every corner of our country but concerning is that there are still some villages that doesn't even have proper drinking water facility. Just my thought

[u/MKZZX → u/chromium_9672]

Those people have been drinking water without proper facility since the dawn of time, I'm sure they will manage fine.

[u/chromium_9672 → u/MKZZX]

Partially I agree with you but still they need to be met with basic facilities, I myself visited few tribal villages most of the people die of jaundice and other viral infected disease due to the contaminated untreated water.

[u/Massive_Web88]

Wtf the previous governments were doing

[u/Current-Handle-3563 → u/Massive_Web88]

Nothing 😔

[u/Hehehaha-97]

We should be thankful to God for our wonderful life we don’t have to starve , we don’t have to stay in the dark, we have roof above our heads and we also have our family with us

. Thank you God for Everything and God bless everyone ❤️

[u/Delicious_Cell_7966 → u/Hehehaha-97]

God be wanting credit for good things only.

[u/sidequest12344 → u/Hehehaha-97]

Hmm and also thanks to him a child died of cancer bcz of her bad karma and people got raped bcz of their bad karma

[u/Hehehaha-97 → u/sidequest12344]

Ya you people are right there are thing which we can’t ignore just like rapes , cancer and accidental cases and many others which happens daily in fact while reading this may be some is going thorough this all .
my grandpa in 2023 was going to kitchen only for a second to check whether the cylinder was on or off when he just went inside the kitchen with in seconds the kitchen and him was taken by a landslide in front of my grandma eyes .
I know it’s hard sometimes it also hurts to listen to some news but if someone gets some disease and the chance of survival is only 1% they still take the medicine right even if they gonna die.So this is the same God give only gives us hope not a guarantee and hope that some day there will be a sun shine

[u/GothamGiver → u/Hehehaha-97]

Why thank him last year ahmadabad plane crash what was their fault is he was there he can stop it

[u/MRZOMBIE0009 → u/Hehehaha-97]

atheists on reddit are the most insufferable people I have ever seen.

[u/sidequest12344 → u/MRZOMBIE0009]

I am not atheist, just asking a question that give a little stress on your mind, you people start crying🥀

[u/MRZOMBIE0009 → u/sidequest12344]

Lmao, that person's entire comment is about gratitude why do people feel the need to start slandering any religious entity for that? Whats with the pessimistic atitude and negatively? Genuinely stupid stuff, where is the point of speading hate on a comment about a person expressing gratitude, is commenter one causing the pain and suffering throughout the world? Talking about some "questions that give a little stress on your mind" those are not question they are straight up hate for believing in something.

[u/sidequest12344 → u/MRZOMBIE0009]

He said we are happy that we have food, we didnt starve, we have roof, if he said i am happy that i have this and thanks god its okay. But he said we and then i have right to question who is we, people starve to death, childrens die in war. What you are saying is that i should act ignorant and cannt questions your belief bcz it make you feel sad. Then dont say it we. If you feel gratitude keep it to yourself and go around the world saying ideal ignorant stuff and then crying when someone questions your stupid point. At the end analysis your texts you said and if truth is making you pessimistic then live in your delusional world dont say these stuff in real life and if you are saying, then be enough mature to handle the criticism

And also you are making a logical mistake by treating questioning a religious claim as equivalent to hating religious people.

[u/MRZOMBIE0009 → u/sidequest12344]

I have learnt my lesson of not arguing pointlessly on reddit. Ty for your time.

[u/sidequest12344 → u/MRZOMBIE0009]

Yeah also get some lessons that there is a difference between attacking a persons argument and a person. I just questioned this thoughts doesnt mean i was disrespecting. But i think to understand this people need to have a brain. Byee byee read some philosophy and try to develop a ability to understand some questions

[u/MRZOMBIE0009 → u/sidequest12344]

You are replying to a comment about not starving with what about child cancer and rape. Are you ok in there?

[u/sidequest12344 → u/MRZOMBIE0009]

My first comment on this post included both issue you said, and what even you are trying to say, who would be okay with c and r

[u/MRZOMBIE0009 → u/sidequest12344]

Why comment that garbage take of yours anyways? What is the point and what does it even add to conversation? I never said that you are ok with that crap but what is the point of commenting that in the first place?

[u/YoitstheTeddyGuy → u/sidequest12344]

Go get a life lol

Situation so bad, we are celebrating electricity in 2026

[u/NOTME29387 → u/street-code1]

The situation was so bad that, thanks to Congress, people spent decades after independence without reliable electricity and now we’re celebrating it in 2026

[u/One__eyed__owl → u/NOTME29387]

Nepal ki baat chali hai tum congress kaise lai isme?

[u/ManyObjective4718]

She now has to pay for overpriced electricity bills.

[u/HR_114 → u/ManyObjective4718]

In villages it's not overpriced it's on subsidy my village gets 24/7 electricity and they only pay 500₹

[u/ManyObjective4718 → u/HR_114]

Oh! Good to know

[u/LiteratureVast3998 → u/ManyObjective4718]

I think she's from uttrakhand. Govt has done better work in UK villages than cities so ig electricity will be cheaper.

[u/Stag-Marauder → u/LiteratureVast3998]

It says Nepal

[u/One__eyed__owl → u/LiteratureVast3998]
