Hullo Atuldom

‘Bahubali’ (2015) was followed by ‘Bahubali- The Conclusion’ (2017). It was re-released in 2025, to celebrate 10 years of ‘Bahubali’, with the two parts combined and was called ‘Bahubali- The Epic’.

‘KGF – Chapter 1’ released in 2018; ‘KGF – Chapter 2’ came in 2022 and apparently a sequel to ‘Chapter 2’ titled ‘KGF – Chapter 3’ that was teased into the second film is in developmental stage.

The above two films along with ‘Pushpa’ and its sequels are all made in South India and were released simultaneously across India, dubbed into all possible Indian languages and were also well-accepted by the audiences. 

(I have not seen the above films, don’t feel like seeing them too.)

There were some Hindi films which either flopped or just made it to be the average performers at the box office after they had theatrical release. But over the years, they have attained the status of cult classics. The films in my minds are, Chetan Anand’s ‘Neecha Nagar’ (1946) for pioneering the parallel cinema, Raj Kapoor’s ‘Jaagte Raho’ (1956) for its social commentary, Guru Dutt’s ‘Kaagaz Ke Phool’ (1959) for its cinematic style, Dev Anand’s ‘Guide’ (1965) for its progressive themes, Raj Kapoor’s ‘Mera Naam Joker’ (1970) for its philosophical depth and ‘Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron’ (1983) for raising a couple of serious issues facing the country in a satirical way. The list is not exhaustive. I also feel that I should add ‘Shakti’ (1982) in this list for the powerful performances of Dilip Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan as father and son, respectively who are in the opposite side of the law.

‘Hifaazat’ (1987) was produced by A Suryanarayana and was directed by Prayag Raj. The main cast included Ashok Kumar, Nutan, Pran, Anil Kapoor, Madhuri Dixit, Bindu, Shakti Kapoor, Kader Khan, Gulshan Grover, Sharat Saxena, Bharat Bhushan, Lalita Pawar, Shubha Khote, Vikas Anand, Vinod Raut, Birbal etc. This was the first film in which Madhuri Dixit was paired with Anil Kapoor. However, the film failed at the box office. They were again paired in ‘Tezaab’ (1988) which became a great success at the box office. This success led to both of them working as a lead pair in the next 12 films.

‘Kaanoon Kee Aawaaz’ (1989) was produced by R Kumar and was directed by P Chandrasekhara Reddy. The cast included Shatrughan Sinha and Jaya Prada in the lead roles supported by Prem Chopra, Asrani, Aruna Irani, Raja Babu, Shekhar Suman, Maneka Babbar, Maneck Irani, Leena Das, Gulnar Irani, Bob Christo etc. Probably, this is the only Hindi film in which Jaya Prada worked with her elder brother, Raja Babu (also known as Raj Babu).

Congratulations to all the fellow wagoneers of this musical bandwagon. The journey completed 18 years yesterday, and today we step into the 19th year of this melodious and joyful voyage across the ocean of the Hindi film song. In these past 18 years, already we have notched up on the score card twenty thousand four hundred and sixty three memories – all wonderful and timeless creations of the masters and artists over the past nine plus decades. And looking forward – another day, another song, another melody – on the trek towards the horizon, where this ocean meets the sky. [Editor]

Hullo to all in Atuldom

Saw a portion of “Padikkadhavan” (Tamil 1985), a few days back. The portion had Sivaji Ganesan (Rajasekhar), the presiding judge for a case, realising that the accused Raja (Rajnikanth) & Ramu (Vijay Babu) are his long-lost brothers. He then proceeds to feign a heart attack & adjourns the court. After researching all night, he returns as a defence lawyer to save Raja and successfully proves that Chakravarthy (Jaishankar) is the one who murdered his own brother. A fight ensues between Chakravarthy and Raja, where Raja defeats Chakravarthy. In the end, Radha (Rajasekhar’s wife) apologises for her old attitude with Raja and Ramu.

Hullo to all in Atuldom

He formed, together with Raj Kapoor and Dev Anand, “the golden trio” of Indian cinema in the 1950s and 1960s. There was camaraderie between the three contemporary actors, all renowned for their own style. He was the biggest Indian star of this era, a national icon, holding the status of a matinée idol. He was the country’s highest-paid actor during this period.

I don’t need to mention that we are reading about the idol of many actors who made their debut in films post the 1960s- Dilip Kumar who was born Muhammad Yusuf Khan in Peshawar, which is presently in Pakistan. He is said to have been childhood friends with Raj Kapoor who grew up in the same neighbourhood.

#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #

#Drunkard Songs -4 #

Today’s drunkard song is from the movie ‘Mawaali-1983’.

‘Mawaali-1983’ was directed by K. Bapaiyya for ‘Padmalaya Studios, Madras’. G. Hanumantha Rao was the producer of this ‘social’ movie passed by Censor Board on 28.10.1983.

By this time in 1983 I was studying in Std-XI with ‘PCM+ Vocational Subjects’. But, I was more interested in cricket and Rajesh Khanna movies than in my studies. But even then I had not watched this movie ‘Mawaali-1983’. I was averse to these Jeetendra movies coming from South directors except ‘Himmatwaalaa’ (since it was a first of its kind and discussed a lot then), ‘Tohfaa’ and ‘Maqsad’. ‘Tohfaa’ had some good songs and I watched it with many interested family members who had assigned me the task of booking the tickets for this movie.
