KUMARUM BHEEM MOVIE
Fig.20
Komaram Bheem is an Adivasi a real
hero who fought for the freedom of his
community against the exploitation of his
community. Komaram Bheem is like the wild
forest into which, far from the madding
crowds of civilization, he was born. He is the
very heart-throb of the Gond Tribals, whose
hearts were in the forests of Adilabad. He
revolted against the injustice meted out to
his brother. He defied courts and the law,
choosing to depend on the wild world. He
took up cudgels against Nizam Nawab's
soldiers, and fighting Babi Jhari, he breathed
hislast.
Fig.No.20,21 Children were waiting to before the
theater. They were somehow not exhited about
this.
He is Komaram Bheem: The gonds' a tribal
man who is a superman at the beginning of
the 20th century, and a veritable 'Bheem' in
the contemporary Gond’s history, a great
valour that stood like a rock to protect tribal.
He revered the beauty of Sombai, he was a
man who never knew anything other than
physical labour, and he was a beacon that
lighted up the dark world of the Gonds with
the flames of ideologies like the very sun
lighting up the wilderness.

CHILDREN COMMITTEES
To let children know the importance of responsibility, the staff members
decided to delegate some of the duties to children committees. These
Committees include;
a) Prayer Committee – the function of this committee is to see whether all
the children are saying the prayer correctly or not. Jyothi observes it
and informs the teacher.
b) Discipline Committee – The committee observes whether all the
students in the home are in good discipline,– especially in the class
room. Krishnaveni is not showing interest in the same from the day she
came back from the home we are trying change her committee after
a discussion.
c) Games Committee – The committee observes the involvement and
performance of the children in games and other cultural activities.
Ramulamma succeeded in this aspect. Ex; She takes care of games
equipment and makes sure that they place them back in the
respective places.
d) Searching Committee - The purpose of this committee to provide
visitors a safe feeling about their belongings when they are about
leave. Ranjitha is good in this aspect. But others girls are not ready to
take this responsibility as Ranjita is not in the home now.
e) Cleaning Committee - To check the cleanliness of the home,
Sangeetha very much interestingly did this job. She is not there so
Lakshmi is taking care of this.
f) Health Committee – This committee’s responsibility is to observe the
health conditions of all the children in the home and educate them
about the importance of healthy behavior, eating healthy food, and
makes sure that any case of ill health of a girl in the home is informed.
Renuka succeeded to some extent in this job, she also suffered minor
illness in the recent past.
g) Food Committee – The purpose of this committee is to keep an eye on
the food habits of the children in the home. Indumathi did this for two
days but after that she forgot about her duty. She needs to be
reminded.
