Ah yes, another iconic song from the Golden Era is being reused. It no longer surprises me to continue discovering such reuse songs from the films of recent vantage. Here is this wonderful creation of Majrooh Sultanpuri and OP Nayyar Sb which is now used once again in the film ‘Bombay Velvet’ of 2015.

In the last 2 decades, I have preferred watching films that interest me on video sharing platforms or on OTT. ‘Talaash’ (2012) was one of few films I have watched in a multiplex upon its release after reading the ‘very good’ reviews of the film. And I was not disappointed. The film was a slow gainer on the box office front. Eventually, the film became a ‘semi hit’. Recently, I watched the film on OTT platform to recapitulate its story which I now feel is a complex one.

The box office success of ‘Dam Laga Ke Haisha’ (2015), a low budget film made under the banner of Yash Raj Films with Maneesh Sharma and Sharat Katariya being the producer and writer-director respectively, paved the way for this combination to make another low budget film, ‘Sui Dhaaga’ (2018) for Yash Raj Films. The cast included Varun Dhawan and Anushka Sharma in lead roles supported by Raghubir Yadav, Yamini Das, Sawan Tank, Manukirti Pahwa, Namit Das etc. The film was majorly shot in Chanderi (Madhya Pradesh) and around Delhi.

Movies are entertainment, this is what my grandfather taught me. Whether or not it was explicitly told, all his children and grandchildren have this perspective in their blood. We all love movies and give every movie the suspension of disbelief you need to enjoy it. So while like everyone we enjoy really excellent movies, we also have a special affection for some movies that many others may not cop up to liking.

For my younger sisters(some may say cousins but they are my siblings), One such movie is “Mere Brother ki Dulhan” starring Imran Khan, Katrina Kaif and the Pakistani singer Ali Zafar. Interestingly, the director is also an Ali (Abbas) Zafar.

Ayushman Khurana and Bhumi Pednekar were paired together for the first time in ‘Dam Laga Ke Haisha’ (2014) which I have already discussed on the Blog. Their chemistry clicked from the very first film together which seems to have been liked by the audience as per the box office indicator. ‘Shubh Mangal Saavdhan’ (2017) is their second film together. Other supporting cast included Seema Bhargav, Neeraj Sood, Chittaranjan Tripathy, Brijendra Kala, Supriya Shukla, Sanjay Singh etc.

Buddhadeb Dasgupta (11/02/1944 – 10/06/2021) has been a well-known director of many off-beat and ‘middle of the road’ Bangla films, some of which have earned him the National Film Awards and other awards. I was not aware that he had also directed 3 Hindi films, ‘Andhi Gali’ (1984), ‘Bagh Bahadur’ (1990) and ‘Anwar Ka Ajab Kissa’ (2014) until recently when I heard a song from his third Hindi film. The reason for this film’s obscurity was that it never got theatrical release though the film was certified by the Censor Board on September 8, 2014, for its India release. However, before that it was premiered on October 17, 2013, at BFI, London Film Festival. In October 2020, EROS NOW released the film on OTT platform. The cast consisted of Navazuddin Siddiqui in the main role with Makrand Brahme, Niharika Singh, Ananya Chatterjee, Pankaj Tripathi, Ekavali Khanna, Amrita Chattopadhyay, Masood Akhtar etc.

There is a saying in Hindi – भगवान जब देता है,तो छप्पर फाड़कर देता है. This saying is used in the context of unexpected gains, not necessarily in terms of monetary gains but in any form. For example, this saying applies to a farmer who gets a bumper crop in the backdrop of the loss of crops due to drought or floods in the preceding one or two years. This saying also applies to Sujoy Ghosh when his low budget film, ‘Kahaani’ (2012) earned a bumper box office collections after his preceding two films – ‘Home Delivery’ (2005) and ‘Alladdin’ (2009) failed at the box office.
