Hullo Atuldom

‘Shabd’ (2005) was a psychological, art film produced by Pritish Nandy & his daughter Rangita Pritish Nandy with story, screenplay & direction by Leena Yadav. Leena’s husband Aseem Bajaj was the cinematographer of the film. The dialogue was by Sutapa Sikdar who’s husband was (late) Irfan Khan. Vishal (Dadlani) and Shekhar (Ravijani) were the music directors for songs written by Irshad Kamil & Vishal Dadlani. The film got good reviews but performed below expectations at the box office, despite being profitable. The story is adapted from the critically acclaimed Malayalam film ‘Rachana’ released in 1983.

(Actresses whose name begin with the letter I)

In the first eight episodes of the series, we listed actresses whose names begin with the first eight letters of the alphabet and who had lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice in the blog. They we went on to cover a song that was lip synced by another acresses whose name began with the same letter and who had not lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice in the blog.

We managed to find “new” actresses (whose name begin with the first eight letters of the alphabet) lip syncing in Asha Bhonsle’s voice for the first time in the blog. They were Anju Mahendru, Bhanupriya, Chandrakala, Divya Bharati, Ekta, Farheen, Gulnar Irani and Harsha Mehra.

Hullo to all in Atuldom

Some films don’t attract audiences, they just flop. No filmmaker makes a film to loose his investments. They begin with a firm story in mind but incorrect promotion and/or word of mouth spread by the few who see it works against the fortunes of the film.

“My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves” that released on 11th January 2008 is one such film. The first thing that was touted about the film was the protagonist played by Nikhil Dwivedi was a Shahrukh Khan look-alike. Second, the title of the film itself was not something that would give an idea to moviegoers about the content of the film. All this was in the year 2007/2008.

Moving ahead with the series on Asha Bhosle singing for actresses whose first names begin with the letter “A”, we come to Ashima Bhalla.

Ashima Bhalla, as is the case with many Hindi film actresses, comes from a military background on her paternal side. She acted in only a few Hindi films, and the total number of films in her career was not very large either. She made her debut in the Hindi film Pyaar Zindagi Hai (2001). In the same year, she also appeared in the Telugu film Daddy. Later, she went on to act in Tamil and Kannada films as well. Over time, she shifted her focus increasingly towards television serials.

We now move on to the next actress whose name begins with an “A” and who has lip-synced to a song by Asha Bhosle. Today, we feature Anjala Zaveri.

Anjala Zaveri was launched in a big way through Vinod Khanna’s film Himalay Putra (1997). Since Akshaye Khanna was to be introduced in this film, a nationwide search campaign was conducted to find a suitable heroine for him. A similar kind of large-scale build-up had earlier been seen with Henna (1990), which benefited from it and became successful.

Anjala Zaveri was born in the UK into a Gujarati-speaking family. However, since Himalay Putra was not a major success, her acting career stalled before it could properly take off. The success that eluded her in the Bombay film industry was partially compensated by her work in the Telugu and Tamil film industries, where she remained active for the next eight years or so. In total, she appeared in 23 films: 7 in Hindi, 11 in Telugu, 3 in Tamil, and 1 each in Kannada and Malayalam.

Hullo Atuldom

The song with this post is courtesy Peevesie. My daughter who led me to this blog in 2009. I just popped a question to her and the answer was this song. And why does she love this song because of its lyrics, which are very layman-friendly; almost like what she herself will tell or write.

Hullo Atuldom

30th March marks 24 years since Anand Bakshi bid goodbye to this mortal world. He was all of 72 then. In the 45 years that he was active in the Hindi film industry he had worked with nearly 95-100 music directors (as per google) beginning with “Silver King” (1957) which had music by Sudipta (knowledgeable Atulites, please confirm if this music director is same as Sudipta Bhattacharya) & “Bhala Aadmi” (1958) with music by Nisar Bazmi; Bakshisaab first wrote for ‘Bhala Aadmi’ but ‘Silver King’ released first is what I discovered on google as I sat to write this post.
