The ‘parallel cinema’ refers to films which have been made as the alternative to the mainstream commercial films. Shabana Azmi and Smita Patil are regarded as the ‘parallel cinema stars’ because they mostly worked in woman-centric parallel films and most of their such films like ‘Ankur’ (1974), ‘Nishant’ (1975), ‘Manthan’ (1976), ‘Bhumika’ (1977), ’Arth’ (1982) etc were box office success. Shabana Azmi, with the success of her very first parallel film, started acting in the mainstream commercial films with ‘Fakira’ (1976) in a lead role. Smita Patil on the other hand kept herself aloof from mainstream commercial films until 1981. What led her to sign mainstream commercial films from 1981 onwards?

“Sirf Tum”- 1999 released; was a pure, soft romantic film. It was different from regular love stories. It had Sanjay Kapoor playing Deepak Rai & Priya Gill played Aarti. They never meet each other in person till the last scene. They get to know of each other through a strange incident. Deepak finds a bag/ envelope containing a girl’s certificates, bio-data etc. He finds the girl’s address and sends it by speed-post to her. Aarti is relieved on getting her documents & she sends him a “thank you” letter. This starts a chain of letters between the two. Deepak is employed in a firm that is headed by Neha (Sushmita Sen). She is impressed by Deepak and his straight-forwardness. She reveals her feelings for Deepak – to him. But he tells her that he is in love with a girl called Aarti whom he has never met. It is a story of “love that starts from the heart & not from the eye”.

Today’s song is a DayDream song video from the film Brandy ki Botal-1939.

The period of early Talkie cinema was interesting in many ways from the point of view of Cinema history. The experimental attitude of the filmmakers allowed the audience to enjoy a variety of subjects of life. Not only this, but due to studios like Prabhat, Huns, Maharashtra Film co. etc making bilingual films in Hindi and Marathi, gave a taste of Marathi style of acting and pronunciation of the dialogues. Exposure to Marathi actors, who acted only in Marathi films, had a typical accent, diction and style of delivering the dialogues which , at times, sounded funny and odd. The Hindi language that was used in these Bilingual films from Maharashtra was sprinkled with ” Hindi-ised” Marathi words, which, though not completely wrong, were rarely used in day-to-day use in the Hindi Belt. One example would be ” मैं तुम्हारी बाट ( वाट in Marathi) देखूंगी “…. which simply meant ” I will wait for you ” !

Hullo Atuldom

6th February 2022 followers of Indian music, across the genres of Bhav-geet, Film Sangeet, Bhajans and any other that we can think of, lost the most accomplished, sought after, loved (& any other add-ons that we know of) singer. She went by the name Lata Mangeshkar fondly addressed as Lata Didi by the multitude of her followers. She was the go-to voice (a modern day term for first choice) of all music composers for their debut films – remember ‘ghar aaja ghir aayi’ RD Burman, ‘Parasmani’ & its songs which was the first released film of Laxmi- Pyare. Even Madan Mohan is said to have approached Lata Mangeshkar to sing for his debut film ‘Aankhen’ but could get her into the recording room only for his next ‘ Adaa’ which released in 1951.

In this article, I have taken up for discussion, ‘Tere Mere Sapne’ (1996) which was the first Hindi film produced by Amitabh Bachchan Corporation Limited (ABCL) after it commenced operations sometime in 1994. Before I discuss the film, it is necessary to dwell upon as to why Amitabh Bachchan felt setting up a film production and distribution company, how the Company fared and how the Company went into near bankruptcy. I think, ABCL is one of the appropriate case studies for the students of business management to understand what went wrong with ABCL and how Amitabh Bachchan turned the corner from near bankruptcy to the star of the millennium.
