When the song ‘Besharam Rang’ from Pathaan was released in last December, it gradually because a topic of controversy. A section of the netizens were offended to see Deepika Padukone, who appears in the song, in orange swimsuit. A few politicians even went on record to state their offence on the visuals of the song. However, the controversy slowly died down and the song started gaining appreciation. And by the time Pathaan released and instantly became a rage world over, ‘Besharam Rang’ got transformed into an anthem, not just in India but also abroad. In an exclusive video interview with Bollywood Hungama, the film’s music composers Vishal Dadlani and Sheykhar Ravjiani, popularly known as Vishal-Sheykhar, got candid about the film’s music. They revealed that ‘Besharam Rang’ was the first song they composed for Pathaan. During the course of the conversation, Vishal asked Sheykhar, “I think we did ‘Besharam Rang’ first na?” To this, his partner replied, “Yeah, that was the first song.” After the release of the song, Vishal had shared his thoughts behind its making saying, “‘Besharam Rang’ is a unique song. It is a confluence of genres that makes it very exciting musically. It is almost an old-school melody paired with a modern beat that is influenced by Afro beat but is electronic. What I love most is how a true melody transcends language, because while (singer) Shilpa (Rao) is singing it, it sounds like a very traditional Indian melody and (singer) Caralisa (Monteiro) and I are singing a Spanish version of that melody and it sounds authentic there too.” Meanwhile, Pathaan is still going strong at the box office and is now in the race to reach the mammoth number of Rs 500 crores nett in India. In fact, the film has earned Rs 100 crores in PVR chain of cinemas itself. Also Read: EXCLUSIVE: Vishal – Sheykhar reveal the inspiration behind the Pathaan song ‘Jhoome Jo Pathaan’

The gorgeous nuptials of Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra are now all the rage and we guarantee the wedding fever will persist for some time. On their Instagram accounts, the couple posted a number of images to offer us a taste of the most popular wedding. One of the numerous fairy tales is the tale of their love. However, the topic of their marital style is one we never tyre of talking about. As is the norm in contemporary Bollywood, the couple exchanged vows in a small ceremony at the Suryagarh Jaisalmer. Without a question, Kiara Advani and the love of her life created a lovely couple. Just when we began to recover from the wedding mania revealed on their personal Instagram, Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra arrived in Delhi for the first time as husband and wife and drew the attention of the photographers in their brilliant red ethnic attire. Red is the colour of choice for Indian brides since it is regarded as the most holy hue and represents prosperity, strength, and the beginning of a new life. Because Kiara and Sidharth's wedding was deeply entrenched in Indian culture, the pair also chose red for their media appearance. Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra continued the practise of wearing matching red dresses by Manish Malhotra, much as they did during their wedding. In a high-low salwar suit with a plunging V-neckline, matching pants, and a sheer organza dupatta to finish the monotone ensemble, Kiara Advani was decked out in all the regalia of a bride. We adore how she opted for a more natural look while letting her bridal glow and her vivid red sindoor do the talking. To combat the waning winter nights in Delhi, Sidharth Malhotra wore his red kurta with a white salwar, brown leather juttis, and a flowery shawl. Meanwhile, the couple tied the knot on February 7 at Suryagarh Palace, Jaisalmer. The two met while filming the movie Shershaah. Although Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra only recently made their relationship official on Instagram, it appears to us that their love story is meant to last. We wish Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani many more years of marital joy, love, and stylish moments together.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Bollywood Hungama????

Farzi is your first foray into the OTT space. How would you describe the experience? Is it any different from doing the films for the big screen? I’m very excited to be doing my OTT debut, as everybody calls it. I think I did it because I love the directors Raj and DK and their work, and I actually really, really liked the idea and the concept behind Farzi, the world of counterfeiting. I felt Sunny was a character that was as challenging as some of my most challenging characters as I’ve done yet. So I immediately wanted to do it. And was it any different shooting for an OTT series? Of course, it’s different because you’re watching the character over five to six hours as opposed to maybe two to two and a half hours. So it’s a deeper, wider opportunity to bring a character to life, that’s it. Farzi gave you the opportunity to work with the great Vijay Sethupathi and also the creators Raj and DK. So what was that experience like? With Raj and DK, I’ve loved Family Man very much and we’ve met over time and always wanted to collaborate. So I was really looking forward to it. In fact, I asked them if they have a show because they were calling me for a movie because they didn’t really expect… they didn’t think after Kabir Singh, I’d like to do something like that, or whatever. But I actually asked them for it and probed for it, and then they actually told me about this concept which we had discussed as a movie earlier. So why was the feature film converted into a digital series? It was just too elaborate to turn into a movie, to fit into a movie. It was only extremely sensible of them to turn it into a show because it deserves that much screen time. What was it like working with Vijay Sethupathi? With Vijay sir, it’s been a pleasure. And I want to see how people receive the show. He’s a fantastic actor who has always rediscovered himself and given people completely different experiences when he has come on the big screen. So it’s a privilege to have him on the show. And I had a blast working with him. Shahid, it’s been twenty years since you started as a leading man. How do you look back on your career so far? I feel very fortunate to still be here. And I feel grateful that people find my work relevant. I feel there’s a lot more that I would like to do. And I think I am as charged as I was at the age of 21, giving my first shot, as I am today. And I think that’s the best part of the entire journey, that I still am as excited and as curious to get on that film floor and give my next shot. I think that’s what drives any artist. Tell me about your forthcoming projects? I’ve got Farzi coming out on February 10. And then there’s a movie with Ali Abbas Zafar, which is an action thriller, a slick action fun film, which will come out in the middle of this year. And then there’s a high-concept quirky love story that I’m doing with Maddock Films, which is directed by a new director. His name is Amit Joshi. It has me and Kriti Sanon in it, and Dharam ji and Dimple ma’am and various other very talented people.

Shah Rukh Khan – Deepika Padukone – John Abraham starrer Pathaan has become the highest-grossing film worldwide, thereby surpassing Dangal. The film has also breached Rs. 400 crore nett in India, the first Hindi film to do so in the history of Hindi cinema. As the film continues its run in theatres with the audience celebrating the win, actor Prakash Raj says that the boycott calls that were made prior to the release were just people barking. At the Mathrubhumi International Festival of Letters in Kerala, Raj said, “They wanted to ban Pathaan. It’s doing Rs. 700 crore. These idiots, bigots…who wanted to ban Pathaan, did not run Modi’s film (PM Narendra Modi) for Rs. 30 crore. They are just you know… barking, won’t bite. Sound pollution.” The actor then went onto criticize Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files saying, “Kashmir Files is one of the nonsense films, but we know who produced it. Shameless. International jury spits on them. The director is asking why I am not getting Oscar. He will not even get a Bhaskar. I tell you because there is a sensitive media out there. Here you can do a propaganda film. According to my sources, they have invested around Rs. 2000 crore to only make films like this. But you can’t fool people all the time.” The actor attended the festival as one of the speakers along with Kabir Bedi, Amitav Ghosh and Sudha Murthy. On the work front, Prakash Raj was seen in the Tamil film Varisu alongside Thalapathy Vijay and the Telugu film Waltair Veerayya alongside Chiranjeevi.

One of the greatest singers of all time, Lata Mangeshkar, passed away a year ago, on February 6, 2022, at the age of 92. She shared a deep bond with several industry personalities, one of whom was Madhur Bhandarkar. Bollywood Hungama exclusively spoke to the acclaimed director after the release of his film India Lockdown in December 2022. At that point, he opened up about the legendary singer. We are living in the era of song remixes but Madhur Bhandarkar has never gone for recreations even though music companies definitely must have suggested him to do so. In reply, Madhur Bhandarkar said, “Yes, I have got the suggestion but I never felt the need to do so. But I am not against the recreation of songs. My favourite song is ‘Do Ghoont Mujhe Bhi Pila De Sharabi’ (Jheel Ke Us Paar; 1973) by Lata Mangeshkar. I’d definitely work on a song sung by her or Asha Bhosle if I feel the need. I am a big fan of R D Burman. The songs I play in my car and at home are from films from the 70s and 80s.” Madhur Bhandarkar continued, “My proximity to Lata didi also plays a part. I miss her. There was a time when I would call her every 15 days. Her blessings are always there for me. On January 1, 2022, I called her and asked for her blessings. I told her that I am making a film named India Lockdown. She got very happy and asked me, ‘Madhur, how do you get these titles?’ I was there at her funeral till the very end.” He sighed, “I miss her as interacting with her every now and then was a part of my life for 15-16 years. No matter in which part of the world I am, I would call her. Sometimes, I would play songs from her old films. She would ask me ‘Kaunsi film ka gaana tha yeh’? When I would tell her, she’d be like ‘Oh yes’ and smile. I miss these interactions. There has been a void in my life since her passing. There will not be another Lata didi ever. I still listen to her songs and I keep remembering her. She was genuinely happy about my success.” Madhur Bhandarkar then revealed, “The last song that she sang is with me. I had recorded it for Corporate (2006) but we did not use it in the film. It’s unreleased and the rights are with me. I will definitely use it in some film depending on the situation. This is her third song in my film after ‘Kitne Ajeeb Rishte’ in Page 3 (2005) and ‘Daata Sunn Le’ in Jail (2009).” ‘Kitne Ajeeb Rishte’ is a memorable song, though it was released 17 years ago, and is often remembered when friends turn foes or vice versa. Madhur smiled as he stated, “‘Kitne Ajeeb Rishte’ is a relationship anthem. When warring parties come together in politics or when someone goes through a breakup, this song is played or remembered.” Also Read: India Lockdown EXCLUSIVE: “I don’t know what it is with me and Censor Board”, says Madhur Bhandarkar; reveals Dil Toh Baccha Hai Ji was given ‘A’ certificate because of the word ‘virginity’

When Shah Rukh Khan turned 50, the Tamilian maverick actor Kamal Haasan paid the actor who played a Pathan free of fee for Kamal in Hey Ram, lavish compliments for his qualities of humility practicality and apolitical astuteness. Said Kamal Haasan, “Probably Shah Rukh knew where he was headed. Probably he did not know where he'd end up on the ladder but was willing to climb till he could no more. With that mind-set humility is something you had to train on right from the word go. Shah Rukh first practiced on a quality that most successful people try to practice when it is too late. Early trainers like him require least humility lessons at the top late trainers learn the hard way. Humility is taught through humiliating lessons.” Kamal was all praise for Shah Rukh’s powers of apolitical articulation. “Shah Rukh spoke the best part of his mind for all to hear and the worst part he digested like food and the world never saw it. No, that does not make him a politician.” Kamal Haasan is extremely fond of Shah Rukh. They go back a long way to the time 12 years ago, when Shah Rukh agreed to do an extended cameo in Kamal Haasan's Hey Ram. Kamal Haasan who played the role of the cop on the lookout for a serial killer in the Tamil hit Vettaiyaadu Vilaiyaadu, expressed a keen interest in Shah Rukh playing the role in the film's Hindi version. When Gautham Menon, who understandably respects Kamalji opinion, asked the thespian who should play his role in the Hindi remake, Kamal promptly gave Shah Rukh's name. Kamal Haasan and Shah Rukh share a mutual admiration society from the time they worked together in Hey Ram in 2000. Shah Rukh had refused to charge any money for the film claiming that the honour of working with the great Kamal Haasan was reward enough. Says Kamal Haasan appreciatively, "Shah Rukh is a true Pathan. A man of his words. I owe him a big favour." For a party in Chennai to celebrate Kamal Haasan’s career in 2013 Shah Rukh not only flew down he danced drenched in sweat from head to toe. Recalled Kamal Haasan, "He danced wonderfully on stage and it looked like he had come out of the bath and forgotten to dry." The air conditioning at the posh luxury hotel had conked off leaving SRK swathed in sweat. Says Kamal, "It was every celebrity-bash's worst nightmare come true. The air conditioning at the hotel broke down. We were all left seething and simmering in the heat, helpless, angry and bitter. Shah Rukh was fully and formally dressed in a suit for the occasion. His condition in the heat was indescribable. But look at this entertainer! He pulled off his coat, jumped on to the stage and danced, although he dripped sweat like he had just had a bath." Shah Rukh, we are told, was pretty much completely drained out and on the verge of dehydration after his sweat-soaked performance. "But he didn't care. At that moment, he forgot all his discomfort. It was just Shah Rukh Saab (that's how Kamal Haasan addresses his junior colleague) and the stage. He is a natural-born entertainer," says Kamal Haasan. Says Kamal emotionally, “Shah Rukh is an artiste at heart and I wish my younger brother stays that way. I wish that success like the one it always has will sit very lightly on his shoulder. Wishing more success to him will induce only emotional sniffles but then that might be only from his detractors .Old friends like me never tire of his success. More to you, Brother, more of all that you love in life” Also Read: Pathaan: Shah Rukh Khan kept Tiger’s scarf as memento; talks about epic cameo of Salman Khan: ‘Matlab fans ka sawaal hai, choti script pe nahi chodh sakte’

As Big B became one of the biggest stars of that era, so did the writers who went on to pen several big films. Salim Khan recently recalled how many actors had said no to the film.

No leading lady was attached to the project and many didn’t want to star due to the small role. So, Amitabh Bachchan reached out to Jaya Bachchan and asked her to star in it. Khan revealed, “I suggested ki Jaya Bachchan ko le lo. She will do it and she will do it for him. Kahani bhi sunayi Jaya ko toh unhone kaha ki mera toh kuch hai nahi ismein zyada. Maine kaha ki haan ismein kuch hai nahi aapka zyada magar Amitabh Bachchan ke liye yeh ek aisi kahani hai ki yeh phod ke rakh degi (I suggested let’s take Jaya Bachchan.

Ever since the 16th season of Bigg Boss premiered on TV, Dalljiet Kaur has often been trending on social media. For the unversed, Dalljiet’s former husband and actor Shalin Bhanot has participated in the Salman Khan-hosted show. The duo had parted ways on an ugly note. However, this time, the actress is making headlines for a good reason as after eight years of her divorce from Shalin Bhanot, she has finally decided to give love a second chance. Yes! You read it right. The Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon actress is all set to tie the knot with UK-based Nikhil Patel, who works with a finance company, in March this year. Post her wedding with Nikhil, she will move with her nine-year-old son, Jaydon, to London. While speaking about the same, Dalljiet told the Times Of India, “The wedding is in March, and I am still figuring out a lot of things. I will move to Nairobi (Africa) for a couple of years, as Nikhil is placed there for work right now. We will eventually move back to London, where he was born and raised.” The 40-year-old TV actress further added, “I met Nick at a friend’s party in Dubai last year. I only spoke about my son, and he was talking about his two daughters, 13-year-old Aariyana and eight-year-old Aanika. He wore blue nail polish on his toes, and when I asked him about it, he replied, ‘I am a proud dad of two girls.’ The romance wasn’t in the air back then; it was just two single parents chatting. Love happened with time. It was our love for our children that connected us. While Anika lives with her mother in the US, Aariyana will live with us.”   As the conversation progressed further, Dalljiet also spoke about her plans to facilitate Shalin and Jaydon’s meeting. She said, “Jaydon needs to have the most normal life and he can only have that if he has his people, including Shalin, around him. Shalin is more than welcome to meet Jaydon and I will bring him to India to meet him. He should know that his father loves him. Hamein iss bachhe ka sochna chahiye jiska koi lena dena nahi hai jo bhi jhagde hue ya nahi hue. Both of us need to step up as his parents and this is our chance. If Shalin gets married, I will be the one to introduce that girl to Jaydon.” Talking about giving love a second chance, Dallijiet explained, “My biggest fear was that I shouldn’t make a wrong decision. However, as I was picking up the broken pieces of my life, along with realising how much Jaydon missed having a dad, it was also about me missing a companion, which I didn’t feel earlier.

After the pandemic, the theatrical collections got hit initially. This prompted the filmmakers to reduce the window between theatrical release and OTT premiere from 8 weeks to 4 weeks. Once the cinema business gradually came back on track, the industry went back to following the old rule from August 1, 2022. Ever since, all the films which have been released in cinemas have arrived on streaming giants only after completion of 8 weeks. However, two major films of last year – Vikram Vedha and Bhediya – have still not arrived on any OTT platform, despite the former releasing in theatres 19 weeks ago and the latter 11 weeks ago. A lot of moviegoers are wondering about the reason behind it and can be seen discussing it on social media. Bollywood Hungama has found out the reason behind the delayed digital premieres of these two movies. A source told Bollywood Hungama, “Both Vikram Vedha and Bhediya will be premiered on the new super-app of Jio. This super-app is going to be launched soon and is sure to become a talking point. Along with the premieres of Vikram Vedha and Bhediya, it’s the app where IPL (Indian Premier League) 2023 will also be aired.” Another source said, “The idea is to premiere not just Vikram Vedha and Bhediya but also several other films. As per the plan, every week, there’ll be a film premiere. While some of these are theatrical releases, a few of them will get a direct OTT release. The list of all these films will be hopefully unveiled at the time of the launch of the super-app.” Meanwhile, there has been a discussion on social media that this new app will be called JioVoot but there has been no confirmation on the same from our sources. Vikram Vedha, which was released on September 30, 2022, starred Hrithik Roshan, Saif Ali Khan and Radhika Apte. It is directed by Pushkar-Gayatri, who also directed the 2017 original Tamil film of the same name, co-starring R Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi. Bhediya, on the other hand, starred Varun Dhawan and Kriti Sanon. Directed by Amar Kaushik of Stree (2018) and Bala (2019) fame, it was released in cinemas on November 25, 2022.

The actress was at Kalina airport where she was leaving for Jaisalmer with her family. Kiara was all smiles for the paparazzi on Saturday morning as she waved at the photogs.

She starred in Karan Johar’s film from the anthology Lust Stories. Recalling the time, she said, “Sid and I know each other from before we were cast in Shershaah.” Karan Johar revealed, “Yes, much before”, to which Kiara said, “Yes at the wrap party of Lust Stories which we crashed.” Karan further added, “We crashed a friend’s house and the cast of Lust Stories as we had and Sid also came to the party and that’s where you and Sid met for the first time.” In another episode of KWK last year, Karan asked Sidharth about his Shershaah co-star and girlfriend Kiara Advani and whether he has plans to marry her. Sidharth dodged the question and said, “I am manifesting a happier and brighter future.” When asked, “With Kiara?” Sidharth smiled as he answered, “If it was her, it would be great.” On the work front, Kiara Advani was last seen in Govinda Naam Mera.

On January 24, 1992, Rajiv Rai released his magnum opus, Vishwatma, in cinemas. The film had an ensemble star cast, featuring Sunny Deol, Naseeruddin Shah, Chunky Panday, Divya Bharti, Sonam, Amrish Puri, Jyotsna Singh and Gulshan Grover. The film is remembered today for its action and massy scenes and of course the cult song ‘Saat Samandar Paar’. On Vishwatma’s 31st anniversary, Rajiv Rai exclusively spoke to Bollywood Hungama about the film, his experience of shooting it in Kenya and a lot more. In Vishwatma (1992), Mohra (1994) and Gupt (1997), the image of the Ambe Ma idol from Shree Mangal Mandir, Nairobi, Kenya is shown in the beginning. Vishwatma was also shot in Kenya. Could you tell us about this connection? That’s a good question! My co-producer Ajay Shah was associated with that temple in some way. I used to visit it regularly. In fact, I even got married in the same temple! Though my marriage broke up, I must say that the temple is very auspicious and it made me feel like I was in India. It didn’t give you a feeling that it was located in some foreign country. Hence, I showed its glimpse in the beginning out of respect for Ambe Ma and my co-producer. There was no real calculation behind it. It was just one of those things that came from my heart and I did it in those films that Ajay Shah co-produced with me. How did you decide to shoot Vishwatma in Kenya? This was probably the first Bollywood film which was shot in the African country… I went to Kenya for Sharad Patel’s daughter’s wedding; he’s a profound filmmaker - he made Rise And Fall Of Idi Amin (1981) - and a very dear family friend. Their son Raju Patel was also a very close friend of mine who made several Hollywood movies including Bachelor Party (1984) starring Tom Hanks. Unfortunately, Raju Patel passed away at a young age due to cancer complications. The wedding was my first visit to Kenya and when I returned to Mumbai, I decided to shoot there. Fortunately, I also had other family friends who owned hotels and we shot in their properties. The group is called Sarova Group of Hotels and it still exists in Kenya and the United Kingdom. That’s when I also met my co-producer, Ajay Shah, who was also politically connected in the country and a very nice gentleman. Sharad Patel, meanwhile, helped me with the technical equipment etc. I hired his lights, generators and cameras. Due to these connections, I was motivated to shoot in Kenya. Back in those days, it was very difficult to shoot in foreign lands because the government would not provide foreign exchange money. So, we had to really plan this film very well and ensure our paperwork was legally in order so that we were able to import the film back to India without complications. Of course, this took a lot of time and energy but it was all worth it in the end. Despite these issues, it was convenient to shoot in Kenya. I loved the locations and the people of the country. Somebody may have shot a film before me in Kenya. I am not sure. But definitely, nobody has gone and shot a whole film there. As mentioned before, I had many connections and I am indebted to all of them. They were very helpful. It was heartening to see how Indians outside the country help fellow Indians. Vishwatma set a big example of it. My mesmerizing experience opened doors for other Indians to shoot abroad. Later, filmmakers began shooting anywhere and everywhere where they could get hold of subsidies. The United Kingdom today is a very apt example. But the poor and third-world African countries could not afford to give subsidies. So, you needed to go there, find your connections and get your discounts! Was Bubbles Disco, where the iconic ‘Saat Samandar Paar’ was shot, also found through connections? Yes. Every location that you see in the film was made accessible thanks to my co-producers and friends there. Ketan Somaia owned Bubbles Discotheque and the casino there. So that was made available to us. Back in those days, it was difficult to make a grand Bollywood film abroad if you didn’t have personal connections. ‘Saat Samandar Paar’ was also used in Sajid Nadiadwala’s Kick (2014) as a tribute to Divya Bharti… Yes. Unfortunately, and laughingly, nobody took permission from me. But it’s okay as they are all friends of mine and I didn’t mind. But today, I am trying to make it clear that you cannot use a song of mine in another film without my permission. As per the trivia on IMDb, Madhuri Dixit and Ayesha Jhulka were offered Divya Bharti’s role. Is that true? These are rumours. If they were offered, why wouldn’t they do it? IMDb should call me, read out every trivia written about me and my film, and I’ll correct the misinformation! I have hardly been rejected by anyone in my career. So, if anyone writes that somebody rejected my film, it’s all bullshit. Maybe two or three times, it had happened where actors didn’t have dates. 90% of the time, however, people wanted to work with me. So, why would one say ‘No’ to me? Today, it’s very different. I am not in the limelight and not very well-known anymore. So the big stars might refuse me and the younger generation of actors might not remember me! In fact, a lot of young generation actors don’t know who I am. They ask me, ‘Who are you?’. I mean, it’s okay for me. I don’t have an ego and I don’t care. People don’t want to work with older filmmakers or directors. And that’s why most of the films which are coming out are pretty sad and bad as we are not working with experienced people in Bollywood. The younger directors don’t have the training ground in making good films. At times, the directors go haywire and become self-indulgent. That doesn’t help and hence, many of them take the support of the OTT platforms to release their films. We didn’t have OTT platforms in our days. We had to make the films work and make the audiences sit in their seats! Yes, and you did. In fact, while seeing the film again, I realized that Sunny Deol actually was hanging from the moving aeroplane in the climax… Yes. There were no special effects or cables in Vishwatma. The films in the 80s and 90s were real. Even in my upcoming film, Zora, everything is real. There are no special effects except for the gunshots where we had to put some effects and that’s about it. When you show fake action, people can guess it’s not real and it’s really not working out that well. You gave commercial roles to Naseeruddin Shah. Was it difficult to make him dance in songs? There’s nothing difficult when it comes to Naseeruddin Shah. You just need to do things very quickly with him. You cannot test a good actor’s patience. Good actors like him don’t require retakes because their first takes are the very best. I had to keep that in mind while I was working with Naseeruddin Shah and doing his fight or dance sequences. But I didn’t have any problems. He adapted to everything that was required to be done in all my films. He’s a very focused and hardworking actor and I would say one of the best actors in India, then and now. Rarely does he essay such roles and with you, he did it thrice… I had seen all of his films. I am an ardent art film watcher. Back in those days, I used to look up to the movies made by Shyam Benegal, Satyajit Ray etc. There was a fabulous parallel cinema movement at that time from where I learnt a lot. I admired it more than the commercial cinema (laughs)! Technically, they were progressive. They were so good with sound and photography. They never left the sync sound at that time. They took a lot of effort into the all technical aspects of the film. Even though the films were a little slow-paced, the casting would be fabulous and the storytelling had a different texture to it. So, the art cinema was a training ground for me. I realize I am saying this for the first time in an interview! So, I had seen all the works of Naseeruddin Shah and I thought it’ll be a good change to take this actor and put him in a different avatar, thereby getting a different audience to watch him. The commercial audience was not watching art and parallel cinema back in those days. I am glad I did so and it paid off really well. And then everybody started taking actors from art cinema. Did you visit cinema halls to check audience reaction? I rarely went to the theatres to hear the hooting or the claps to pat myself on the back. Also, I would have seen my film a hundred times and it would be boring for me to see it again. Whether they were burning the cinema down or screaming with joy, whatever the reactions may have been to my various films, I didn’t check. Those days, there used to be adverse reactions, like seatein tod di or audiences throwing money on the screen. Once I get the commercial results and know what has happened with the film, I move on. However, I did see every other Hindi film with the audiences and got their reactions. I do that even today. If you want to see me, you can do so at a multiplex, where I’ll be watching the first day first show of the latest release!
