Setting of Naina Song from Dangal Movie
Geeta and Babita are sisters. Their father (Aamir Khan), who was an amateur national wrestling champion in his younger days, has been their wrestling coach since they were young. The sisters have done well and won many wrestling awards and prizes. After winning the national championship, the oldest daughter, Geeta, leaves home to join the National Sports Academy in another town to get ready to compete in international wrestling events. In the academy, Geeta learns additional wrestling moves and different techniques and starts believing that she knows more about wrestling than her father. During a visit home, Geeta tells Babita that she is making a wrong move, which in effect means that their father has taught Babita a wrong move. Geeta and her father get into an argument. This becomes a major ego issue for both of them and the father challenges Geeta to have a wrestling bout with him. As Babita and others watch the intense wrestling bout, Geeta defeats her father and feels that she has proven her point. The father, who is much older, overweight and out of shape, feels slighted and deeply hurt. He feels that Geeta is not showing him enough respect and is not giving him credit for all that he has done for her. This leads to a tense situation in the house, and Geeta decides to go back to the sports academy. As Geeta says goodbye and leaves home, the song begins. During the song, Geeta, with other team members, is shown flying to distant destinations to participate in wrestling competitions as her father looks at old newspaper clippings of Geeta's achievements and remembers the good old days when he and Geeta used to go to wrestling competitions together. The father goes about his daily routine, including taking the second daughter, Babita, to a wrestling tournament, but he feels heartbroken and dejected.

In this casual situation, the more common word aankhen would be used for eyes instead of naina. The word Naina has been used in many Bollywood songs. For example, it is used in the popular Kajrare Kajrare song from the film Bunty Aur Babli. Click here for this lively song and more details.
Social impact of Dangal movie
Dangal is a very different type of Bollywood movie. It is not a usual song and dance Bollywood movie. It is also not an Indian version of a Hollywood film as many Bollywood movies are. It is a movie that delivers a powerful and hopeful message without being preachy. A movie like Dangal can have a major social impact on Indian society where in many communities girls are considered as second class citizens and have very few opportunities in academics or sports. The situation is the same in many other countries also. Although the real life story of the Phogat sisters can also inspire people, a movie like Dangal can reach millions of people and help to create more opportunities for girls all over the world. Dangal was also commercially very successful in India and many other countries, which could encourage other filmmakers to make more meaningful movies like Dangal.
