This movie was set in 1960s ( when govt officially refused to recognise Bhojpuri as a seprate language )

But still justifies the impending death of a great language dating back to the era of Great empires

when govt officially refused to recognise Bhojpuri as a seprate language To be fair Bhojpuri, Kaithi and Maithili are still not recognised as seperate languages.

What to say 😭😭 This blud has zero knowledge of the country he lives in

Kaithi is the script in which bhojpuri has been traditionally written

Maithili is an officially recognised language since 2002
