Introduction
THE FILM ALSO OPENS WITH THE FOLLOWING QUOTATION FROM GANDHI JI
“Hesitatingtoactbecausethewholevisionmightnotbe achieved, or because others
do not yet share it, is an attitude that only hinders progress. ”
Mohan in hindi means everyone favorite. Here we are going to put up a
review of the film Swades based on the management concepts. Mohan
here refers to two interpretations:-
1. How a person can be a transformational leader. I e How an ordinary
person can become extraordinary.
2. By giving this title I also meant that Swades is a question raised to all
the citizens of our country about ‟What is India and What it can be‟
Swades is a film that tackles the issues that development throws up on a
grass root level. It is to this India, which is colorful, heterogeneous and
complex that Mohan Bhargava (Shah Rukh Khan), a bright young scientist
working as a project manager in NASA, returns to on a quest to find his
childhood nanny. The film uses the contrast between the highly developed
world of NASA, which has been at the forefront of advances in space
research, and this world back home in India, which is at the crossroads of
development. Mohan's simple quest becomes the journey that every one of
us goes through in search of that metaphysical and elusive place called
"home".

Ashortoverviewofthemovie
Mohan Bhargava (Shah Rukh Khan) is a scientist working at N.A.S.A.
One day he feels sad that he has not kept in touch with his nanny, Kaveri
amma after his parents' death and she is in an old age home in Delhi. He
makes an impromptu plan to visit her in Delhi (where he finds that she is
now in Charanpur in North India) in order to bring her back to USA, so
that she can have a comfortable life.
When he reaches Charanpur, he finds that Kaveri amma stays with her
niece Geeta (Gayatri Joshi), a modern and strong-willed girl who is keen
to have her own identity. Mohan starts liking Geeta, but a clash occurs
between the two over Kaveri amma. Mohan also finds the sad state of
rural India and wants to do something to improve the situation in his short
stay. He befriends the local postmaster Nivaran and a dhaba wala Mela
Ram. He starts opposing practices in the village and creates a storm within
the village with his new-age thoughts. Mohan then decides in acting
himself for the improvement of the village. He helps in getting more
students in Geeta's primary school and also plans a mega project to bring
electricity in the village. In this while a change occurs in Mohan and he
finds his roots.
Geeta accepts his love, but his pet project demands him to go back to
USA, and Geeta refuses to go with him to USA, creating a huge dilemma
for Mohan

AspectsofOrganisationalBehaviour
Identifiedinthemovie
TEAM WORK
the combined action of a group, especially when effective and
efficient.
Swades shows how teamwork pays, especially in the scenes where Mohan
and thevillagers work together to bring in electricity in Charanpur. The
title envisions theemerging concepts of HR i.e. from
“I to we concept.”
After trying hard in explaining the benefits of unity Mohan and other
villagers makehydro electric power plant to solve the irregular electricity
in village & get success…
Situation
This can be seen in the movie when Mohan was able to empower
the community to take their needs into their own hands and
collectively villagers started working as a team.

11. 11 | P a g e
Leadership
Leadership refers to the action of leading a group of people or an
organization
Directive Style of Leadership
Directive style of leadership is one of four leadership behaviour
characterized by setting clear objectives and rules for your
subordinate and ensuring that your expectation and direction are
clearly defined and understood.
Situation
In the movie Shahrukh Khan explains the villagers how to generate
electricity in village. He explains villagers that there will be three points
A1,A2,A3. At point A1 we will make reservoir (paani ki tanki) and at the
reservoir the water will be collected and from point A1 two pipes will be
connected toA3 and at point A3 there will be a shed and inside the shed
there will be a turbine (machine) and when the water flow from pipes will
cross the turbine the turbine will rotate and will generate the electricity.

12. 12 | P a g e
Motivation
Motivation is defined as the process that initiates, guides and
maintains goal oriented behaviours.
One of the most important functions of management is to create
willingness amongst the employees to perform in the best of their
abilities.
Situation
In movie, we saw motivation in a part where SHahRukh khan explains the
needs of childrens in a village for high schools. Firstly,the postman was
not agree to build up the schools nearby but Shahrukh khan explained the
needs of childrens to postman by hook or crook. The postman got
motivated and agreed to take a talk to the villagers. Similarly, in an
organisation one should get motivate or should motivate others to do

13. 13 | P a g e
his/her best in the organisation.
Convincing power
When something is convincing, it makes people agree with what it
claims to be true. Describe an argument as convincing if it wins
you over and makes you believe in its rightness.
Situation
In the movie, the scene where the children says and tries to
convince the passengers on the train to take water of 25p. When no
one was taking water, he targeted a man and asked him personally
and convinced him to take water and he succeed. Similarly in the
organisation a Boss or a leader or a manger should have the
convincing power so that all the members of the organisation
should work for the common goal in the organisation.

14. 14 | P a g e
Responsibilities
Responsibility comes from the Latin responsus, which means “to
respond.” There are actually a few different definitions of the noun.
It can be another word for trustworthiness, as in, "He demonstrated
his responsibility by showing up to practice on time." And it can be
used to describe the social force that motivates us to take on
individual responsibilities, as in, "A sense of responsibility drove
him to memorize all of the songs."
Situation
In the movie, when amma told the problems to Shahrukh khan that
she wants to find a boy for her to marriage and want the students
for her. So Shahrukh khan took the responsibility of the problem

15. 15 | P a g e
and came up with the solution. Similarly in the organization one
should take the resposibilty to solve the problem and attain the
goals of an organization.
Influence
Our ability to influence others is an essential skill for leaders at any level.
Influencing is not about strong arming people to do things your way, but
rather influencing is “the action or process of producing effects on the
actions, behavior, opinions and ideas of others.”
Influence is the power to have an important effect on someone or
something. If someone influencessomeone else, they are changing a
person or thing in an indirect but important way.
Sometimes a person who influences another doesn't intend to have
any effect, but sometimes they are using influence to benefit
themselves. An example of a personal benefit or advantage would
be the use of political influence. Influence is also a verb, from
Latin influere.
Situation
In the ,movie, Shahrukh khan explained the villagers that it is
important for everyone to take initiative,to stand together for a

16. 16 | P a g e
common purpose. As in movie the villagers says that this village will
never be change ,where shahrukh khan explained everyone that for
change one cant bring the change but if everyone want it is
possible. Similarly in the organization one should influence others
in right direction so every member work together in the organization
to accomplish a common goal.
