Dil Dosti etc

Two characters distinct in their persona,values and upbringing come together in the bond of frienship.One with a bihari lineage behind him, marked by social ethos and stigma.Rooted in the deep indian middle class values and the belief that doing good things would bring good things back.The other brought up in Delhi, the ever cynical pseudo intellectual bastard.As time progressed both moved towards success in their lives.At one point their path crossed the bihari threatened to kill the delhi boy and then he died.

Does this in anyway signify the triumh of the cynic, the shallow over the romantic and passionate soul?Is it a mirror of the present day society ?Wat if it signifies something far greater meaning that the struggle is not between two sections of society physically seperable but in the mind of a living and confused human being? Is the bihari still very sure of losing.
