Milestones of Indian Cinema -Sholay
2008-01-03 18:15:00 Sholay is much more than Bollywood’s most successful commercial film ever, it is in many ways Bollywood’s psychological touchstone. Which is why all the subsequent Hindi Mega Successes might have raked in the moolah but never ever quite achieved the stature of this iconic film. Its detractors have often described Sholay as a ?curry? western. Some say it was ’patterned’ on American spaghetti westerns, but what sets it apart from many such other inspired products is the fact that the director Ramesh Sippy incorporates interesting innovations to what may seem like a run of the mill revenge drama. He obviously Indianineses the Western Format by adding songs, romance and comedy through engaging subplots, but also keeps a tight grip the main plot. The ambiance of the film might have been Indian but the storytelling is definitely western. The film narrates the story of an ex-cop Thakur Baldev Singh (Sanjeev Kumar) who hires two jailed con men (Amitabh Bachchan and D...

Making Aag Was A Mistake- Admits Ram Gopal Varma
2007-09-05 11:43:00 The megalomaniac Ram Gopal Varma now admits that he made a mistake attempting to do a Sholay Remake. We had hope he could have realized his folly earlier to spare all those poor souls who were subjected to this movie. Here are some excerpts from a recent interview of the director.Do you feel you went wrong somewhere with Aag?I did go wrong. The one person I must have made supremely happy is Ramesh Sippy! I’m very happy to make him happy, because he made my life. I watched Sholay again last night. It’s fantastic. I must’ve been nuts to attempt it. All my impressions of Sholay over the years went into making Aag. Now, I ask myself, ‘If someone else had made Aag, how would I as a Sholay fan react?’ I’d probably hate it as much as most people. The original is too deeply embedded in the public’s psyche.Were you prepared for this sort of backlash?I can’t say it was entirely unexpected. When you attempt to remake the most revered film i...

However, after Varma's counsel Rajiv Nayar submitted that the name of the film had been changed and the movie was ready for release, Justice Gita Mittal dismissed the petition and allowed the producer and director to rele...

We have worked together in Company and Bhoot and Ajay trusts me as a director. I told him that I’d had enough of shooting barely-clad women. For a change, I wanted to shoot a barely-clad man!”Chalo ji, I think RGV has said it all! To each his own!

After that she is deemed impure and not accepted back in society!“Indian society from the epic age of Ramayan, has never accepted back women if they happen to spend one night away from home.”Poor Gabbar feels bad and wants to reform himself for Basanti!
