Resistance, and Renaissance sometimes is active rather than passive. Complaining about the excesses of Guddu, IMHO, is an intellectually lazy way of sympathising with the loss of Bhojpuri culture that borders on ethnocide due to the obvious role of state and dominant parties in it.
A more creative response would be to wear Bhojpuri on the sleeve and introduce culturally and civically relevant theme to the corpus of Bhojpuri literature and popular culture. This is more important if we are to remain committed to the idea of saving a culture. Also as we progress and educate the Bhojpuri people, who may be following this song for the lack of better content, we will start seeing results. Mere complaining won’t do.
It’s very sad to hear such thing about my mother tongue. Bhojpuri boli me mithaas baa apnepan ka.
