Recently I've been finding lots of similarities between technical and psychological stuff, maybe now it's time to take formal education in psychology. Human behaviors, their varying responses - be it of a happy go lucky bus conductor or be it of carefree school children, or be it of ever complaining S/W engineers like us – each one offers a different case study – Certainly an interesting project to work on.
Couple of days back, I was watching Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na. I've watched it several times – So most of dialogues, scenes were by heart. But this time, something new was found –Implementation of Facade design pattern.
Imran's girlfriend – not Genelia - other one played by Manjiri always play game "What's this?" It never clicked me what was director trying to say through this, but now I got it. That was Façade. Her parents do not get along – and she wasn't ready to accept it – she couldn't do anything about it – so what can be done – she built up Façade to fool herself – Game where she sees what she want to see and ignores the reality. This way, she is able to convince herself that all is well, although it is not. Exactly this is how Façade is defined on Dictionary.com – "An outward appearance that is maintained to conceal a less pleasant or creditable reality".
Hats off to the Director/Writer for putting such a well thought character and displaying minute understanding of Psychology.
P.S. On the same note - recalled one book - Tao of Physics - recommended by geek friend of mine which talks about places where modern physics meets spiritual world, it seems its time to pick that one up now.
