Film “Dil hai ke manta nahi”(1991) was another one of Mahesh Bhat movies, made like a “Chitrahaar”, with ten songs, including one double version song. From what I see in the trivia about this film, it is about adaptations galore. The story is adapted from American film “It happened one night”(1934), which is a tradition of sorts with hindi film right from early 50’s.

A few other Hindi films were also inspired by the same film – “Nadan” (1951), “Chori Chori” (1956), “Nau Do Gyarah” (1957), “Solva Saal”(1958) and “Basant” (1960). Similar plots were used in other Indian films as well – “Chaowa Pawa” (1959) in Bengali, “Chandhrodhayam”(1966) and “Kadhal Rojave” (2000) in Tamil, and “Hudugaata” (2007) in Kannada.

Hullo Atuldom

“This is a multi-birthday post.

First and foremost we shall be wishing our Sudhirji- The Dillwala Dilliwala; Atulji’s trusted lieutenant on his birthday. He has been a huge help to Atulji and that has ensured that the blog has had no dot days since 25th December 2019. Let us all wish this Atulite with lots of fun and music.”

This was the opening line of my post of the 2nd December 2022. For sometime now, the rate at which Sudhirji’s posts are appearing is less than a trickle. Hope he picks up the threads of all the series that he has made us addicted to. “Ram Jaane” when he will pick up steam.

Hope you have a Great Day Sudhirji-
Happy Birthday To You🌯🍫🍦🎂🕺💃

Hullo Atuldom

The serial “Wagle Ki Duniya – Nayi Peedhi Naye Kissey” was a serial I loved watching for its assorted characters, that lived in a apartment complex of North Mumbai. One of the characters, who happened to be a neighbour, friend & almost like family to the central (to the plot) Wagle Family- Daksesh Joshipura who is the secretary of the society. He had a one-liner every time he appears on the screen:- “I am Daksesh Joshipura, honourable secretary of the society & 1st Citizen of Sai Darshan Heights”.

I am sure the followers of the blog maybe wondering where I am leading to.

‘Mast’ (1999) was a romantic fantasy film which was produced and directed by Ramgopal Varma. The cast included Urmila and Aftab Shivdasani (debutant) in the lead roles supported by Dalip Tahil, Smita Jaykar, Govind Namdeo, Antara Mali, Niraj Vora, Raju Mavani, Suhas Bhalekar, Rajpal Yadav (debutant) etc.

As admitted by Ramgopal Varma in an interview with rediff.com just before the release of the film, during his younger days, he had an obsession with Sridevi. In the later years, he felt that most of the teenagers may be fantasising in their minds about their obsessions with actors. So, he felt that this obsession with an actor can be made into a musical romantic film. Ramesh Khatkar and Vinod Ranganathan jointly wrote the story, screenplay and dialogues for the film based on Ramgopal Varma’s own experiences.

Recently, I came across the film ‘Hari Bhari’ (2000) when I was scrolling through the filmography of Shyam Benegal. After going through the details of the film, I thought that this may be a documentary film because the film was produced by the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare, Government of India and National Film Development Corporation (NDFC). The title of the film which in English means ‘fertility’ reinforced my assumption of a documentary film on family planning. The film had Shabana Azmi, Rajit Kapur, Rajeshwari Sachdev, Nandita Das, Surekha Sikri, Seema Bhargav and other actors who have been usually associated with Shyam Benegal films. The duration and the songs in the film created a doubt in me whether it was really a documentary film. So, I decided to watch the film at least for the sake of its songs.

‘Dastoor’ (1991) was produced by Harish Munjal and Prem Chugh and was directed by Anil Mattoo. The cast included debutants Dolly Minhas, Pomy Dev in the lead roles supported by Sharmila Tagaore, Suresh Oberoi, Raza Murad, Alok Nath, Manohar Singh, Johny Lever, Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Dinesh Hingoo, Harish Munjal etc. Amita Nangia made her friendly appearance in the film. I have watched the film for the first time only few days back in one sitting. The film is a murder mystery drama with a fast-paced narratives to keep the audience engrossed while watching the film.

The opening scene of the film gives a feel of watching some of the suspense thriller films of the 1960s like ‘Wo Kaun Thhi’ (1964), ‘Poonam Ki Raat’ (1965) and ‘Mera Saaya’ (1966). A girl in white, without any expression, walks through the forest in a dark night with a background song, her destination being an architecturally impressive palatial mansion in which the owner lives alone. The caretkaer of the dmansion is seen smoking his chillum. After some time, he is seen switching off the lights of the first floor of the mansion. Simultaneously, a man in hat is also walking toward the mansion. An unidentified person has killed the watchman of the mansion by suffocating him. Inside the house is a pet eagle which makes a noise, probably giving a notice that someone has entered inside the mansion. Another man is slowly climbing the stairs with camera focussed only on his legs. Now, inside the mansion, there are four persons in addition to the owner of the house – the caretaker, the girl in white, the man with a hat and a person climbing the stairs in the mansion. All these scenes of movements give an indication to the audience that something is going to happen inside the mansion.
