Pee Room, Paan-ki-Dukaan And Dialoguebaazi
I
Everytime I go to watch a movie at Fame Adlabs,Andheri Link Road, and visit its wash-room/ rest-room/ pee-room or plain loo, it is not only the tool I hold on but the dialogues/one-liners from various films that are framed at eye level..And looking at them a vague feeling nudges me as to what’s missing in present day fare of movies !
Then the other day in a seminar and screening (of Raman Raghav) organized by Baiscope at PVR, Juhu, Shriram Raghvan while talking on the subject of film noir mentioned that his Johnny Gaddar could not be narrated (narrated as in conventional manner)..He had given 5-6 pages of treatment and characterization to the would-be cast but he could not narrate the subject as asked for because his film was not conducive to audio-narration..I appreciate his honesty ..And I have nothing against movies being considered predominantly a visual medium and treated accordingly..
But his acknowledgement brought up from the subconscious a revelation that what has been missing of late from Hindi Films is this thread, this bridge that reaches the masses in the most direct manner..There is a paucity of memorable one-liners ..
In good old days Loo was not only a place to relieve one’s hydraulic pressure but to relive the high drama of a film by reiterating and reenacting its chosen dialogues standing amidst a bunch of ‘half-monty’s’.
Same was the case at a nukkad- ki- paan shop..One way to guage movies’ mettle was to stand at the paan shop while the paanwaala made ‘maghai-banarsi-kalkatta’ saada or masala and discuss the merits-demerits of a particular film..And the vehicle invariably used to be mouthing few of the choicest dialogues of a movie-in-consideration..These not only spoke of the dramatic value of a film but also provided a platform for the guys to showcase their own histrionic abilities, modulations, tonality and style of delivery that made them vicariously live their heroe’s life on a big screen(whether giving vent to pent-up feelings or unrealized aspirations or suppression of cherished values)..Hindi films influence on Indian psyche had a seal of approval once its dialogues/one-liners were spoken and flaunted at all such locations and became part of cultural voacabulary of the public.
So whatever the screenwriting aesthetics and rules may say—the silence may be golden and visual representation may be the mantra but nothing can take away the impact of dialogues/one-liners as a repartee or an expression of an emotion or an outburst..
It may be argued that attention span of the masses and audience has shortenend, hence it has lesser retentive power..To me it smacks of tunnel vision..I think there is no good writing happening that can bring out the true value of dialogues in a screenplay. And one culprit is the ‘lost-in- translation’ syndrome because of DVDs invasion..And this is one area where best of the English dialogues cannot stir the audience when they are translated into Hindi..Imagine the results:
Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn…(Clarke Gable to Vivien Leigh while walking out on her at the climax of Gone With The Wind..Incidentally this line had been voted number one movie line of all time by the American Film Institute)..And now its Hindi translation.. Saaf saaf kahoon my dear/meri priye, meri balaa se!(hey, hey, hey).
I am going to make him an offer he can’t refuse…(Marlon Brando in The Godfather..Its the second most memorable line in Hollywood cinema as per the same poll)..In Hindi it will go something like : Main usey aisi peshkash karne jaa raha hoon, jise wo manaa nahin kar sakta (Waah,aah, aah.).
Show me the money….(Cuba Gooding Jr to Tom Cruise in Jerry Maguire)..The Hindi version : Mujhe paise dikhao (ooh, aah,aaow).
Slow,slow, quick, quick, slow…(JLO to Richard Gere in Shall We Dance)..Translated in Hindi :Dheere,dheere, tez, tez, dheere..(oooh,aaah, oooh, la, la la).
You see these translations can’t match upto the impact of the original one-liners.
Kahan gaye wo din..Aur kahan hain wo films..Aur kahan hai wo dialogues !
Therefore, I crave for good old dialoguebaazi that not only stirred but shook the audience to the core and provided them a quick- wit solution to many situations in their day to day lives..Maybe I am a romantic at heart and really miss some solid,fiery dialogues and one-liners ..And maybe I also fully believe that in the beginning there was word and the word was God ! So sanctity of spoken word is dear to me..Maybe.
Few of my favorite dialogues, all by male protagonists (incidentally they match to a great extent with the poll conducted two years ago by FCB-ULKA) and not in any particular order of preference are :
Aaj ka kaam kal karo, kal ka kaam parson, aisi jaldi kya hai jab jeena hai barson..(Amol Palekar in Golmaal)
Aaj Khush toh bahut hoge tum..( AB in Deewar)
Tum log mujhe dhoond rahe ho aur main tumhara yahan intezaar kar raha hoon..(AB in Deewaar)
Mere paas ma hai..(Shashi Kapoor in Deewaar)
Mujhe bahut neend aa rahi hai…tu mujhse naraaz toh nahin maa.(AB in Deewaar)
Dawar Seth, Main aaj bhi phenke huey paise nahin uthata..(AB in Deewar)
Chinai Seth jinke apne ghar shishe kay hotey hain, wo dusro ke gharon par pathhar nahin phenka karte..(Raj Kumar ‘Jaani’ in Waqt)
Hota hai, hota hai..(Bhagyashree in Maine Pyar Kiya)
Friends mein no thank you, no sorry..( Salman Khan in Maine Pyar Kiya)
Phir Na kehna Daaroo peekar Michael Danga Karta Hai ( Pran in Majboor).
Mogambo khush hua..(Amrish Puri in Mr. India)
Sara Shehar mujhe Loin kay naam se jaanta hai..(Ajit in Kaalicharan)
Mumbai ka King kaun ? Bhiku Mhatre.(Manoj Bajpai in Satya)
Rishte mein toh hum tumhare Baap hote hain, naam hai Shehanshah.(AB in Shehanshah)
Shenshah jahan khade ho jaate hain. Wahin darbar lag jaate hain.(AB in Shenshah)
I can talk English, I can walk English, I can laugh English, because English is a very funny language.(AB in Namak Halal)
Jab tak baithne ko na kaha jaaye, sharrafat se khade raho..Ye police station hai tumhare baap ka ghar nahin.(AB in Zanjeer)
Don ko pakadna mushkil hi nahin, na mumkin hai..(AB in Don)
Jis kaanoon ne aapko mere liye ajnabi kar diya, uss kaanoon kay hawaale main apne aapko kaise kar doon.(AB in Shakti)
Pushpa,I hate tears.. (Rajesh Khanna in Amar Prem)
Jab ye dhai kilo kaa haath kisi par padta hai, toh aadmi uthta nahin, utth jaat hai.(Sunny Deol in Damini)
Anarkali, Salim ki mohabbat tumhe marne nahin degi aur hum tumhe jeene nahin denge..(Prithvi Raj Kapoor in Mughal-E-Azam)
Ladki aa rahi hai koi military toh nahi aa rahi..(Sudhir in Satte Pe Satta)
Tera kya hoga Kaaliya..(Amjad Khan in Sholay)
Arrey O Samba, Kitney aadmi thhe..(Amjad Khan in Sholay)
Mausi bhi taiyaar, basanti bhi taiyaar..( Dharmendra in Sholay)
Holi kab hai, kab hai holi..(Amjad Khan in Sholay)
Ye haath mujhe de de thakur..(Amjad Khan in Sholay)
Koi dukh nahin dost, jiye toh dost kay saath, marey toh dost kay saamne..(AB in Sholay)
Bade bade deshon mein aisi chhoti chhoti baatein hoti rehti hain..(SRK in DDLJ)
Kabhi kabhi kuchh jeetne kay liye kuchh harna bhi padta hai, aur haar kar jeetne walon ko Baazigar kehte hain, kya kehte hain ? Baazigar.(SRK in Baazigar)
Kaun kambhakt behosh honay kay liye peeta hai, main toh peeta hoon, neend aa jaaye.(Dilip Kumar/SRK in Devdas)
Teri jaat ka baida maaroon.(Mithun Chakrvorty in Jaal)
And then Kuttey, kameeney, main tera khoon pee jaoonga..(Dharmendra in—God knows how many movies).
It seems the best of the lines in past thirty plus years have been written for Big B..And the impact of Sholay refuses to fade away..And Salim-Javed seem to remain the masters in the art of dramatising situations and delivering one-liners with chutzpah..And all the visual treatment of today’s films is no music to the ears..
Koi Shaq ?(Mithun Chakrovorty in Ghulami).

@Krysh,
Nice topic,
Gulzar saab also has written both kind of dialogues, sloganbazi encoded and emotional but appealing which can be remembered,
Mere Apne: Shot Gun: Pistol mere pass bhee hai,
Hamare mohalle mein Gundagardi?
Apart from these powerful dialogues having touch of sloganbazi, there are dialogues which are used in between the songs which are soft and increase the imapct of the songs.
Gulzar Saab has written many many memmorable dialogues
e.g. Aandhi-
Suchitra Sen- din mein kahan vaqt milta hai, kahan aa paungi
SK: Ye Chaand hai jo raat mein nikalta hai,
————
Then there are several satirical and comedy films
and in new films like Kabhi haan kabhi naa
when SRK says, ek baar mujhe pass ho jane dijiye
Anjan Srivasatava, Lo jaise humne roka hua tumhe pass hone se.
Or Aamir Khan got so good dialogue in Rangeela
Apna to bad luck hee kharab hai aaj.
now we will see interesting list here in comment section.:)
shit… i m writing post on the same topic.
and it is about to publish…..
anyway, next week….might be published
some of our dialogues are common i will delete them from my post.
btw, good post.
Nice write-up there Krysh.
A small correction though…the dialogue from Golmaal you’ve mentioned in your post is actually said by Yunus Pervez (while digging his nose). :-)
one more small correction, the Devdas quote goes something like this “kaun kambakht bardaasht karne ke liye peeta hai, hum to isi liye peete hain ke saans le sake..” and Dilip Kumar’s version is easily the best.
It would be interesting if we compiled an AFI like list isnt it!
gulshan grover’s ” Bad Man” (Ram Lakhan) can be included in this list…
Nice post…recently watched an amazing movie “Shool”. Though not famous (dunno y), it as some great dialogs…
“Bhaiyya president hai…to kya ladki ko chedega? Teri behen ko bulakar saare bazaar se chidvaye abhi??” – Manoj Bajpai to a student teasing girls.
“Manjari…bhabhi ne to naam hi nahi bataya” – Bacchu Yadav (don’t remember the actor’s name)
“Paani mein se bijli nikaal lenge to phasal kya khaak hogi? Paani mein se bijli nikalna, insaan mein se jaan nikalne ke barabar hai…” Bacchu Yadav in Assembly opposing hydel power (;-)!!)
“Mann mein has ke dikhao” -Bacchu Yadav
…and many more. Btw, all dialogs are by Mr.Anurag Kashyap, probably one of his best works…
How can u forget ” Tumhara naam kya hai Basanti…”
very very timely…from the post abt “pauses” to the post abt “dialoguebaazi”….i love both when it is used effectively..something i have noticed is that the post abt “pauses” had so many responses irrespective of them belonging to North or South…or whether the films belong to bollywood, hollywood, kollywood or whatever…silence is the language of the world ? i believe its because the emotions are more profoundly expressed in moments of silence, which is universal.
everyone please contribute to this dialogue baazi post….
some of my favorites…
“AHA …SURVIVE”….in tomorrow never dies.
“THE NAME IS BOND…JAMES BOND”
“i will make him an offer he cant refuse”
“houston we have a problem” …american pie
“orikkal rajumonennodu chodichu uncle-inte achanaaranennu….” RAJAVINTE MAKAN (malayalam)
“illa chathiyan chanthuvine tholpikkaan anayi pirannavarilaarumilla..” ORU VADAKKAN VEERAGATHA (malayalam)
most of the dialogues in all Padmarajan movies and MT movies
list incomplete…
i wud beg to differ on the popular assumption that cinema is predominantly a visual medium…
both visuals and the spoken word are very very essential for the medium…finally it is for the director to learn how to use the power of both…
@ Saurabh, do u know this ” Paani mein se bijli nikalna” was actually used in some elections in Punjab, Akali’s accused congress that they extracted electricity from water hence river’s water did not had any ’shine’ in it… great politicians, great dialogue…
believe me…politicians create some of the best one-liners and dialogues..some witty some sarcastic but generally excellent…
As ‘the narcissist’ has already pointed out, it was baDe babuu who made that profound statement in Golmaal :-) In the context of micturation, you may remember the wonderful nugget from Golmaal of the man who has to leave the hall despite “mu.ngaDaa” and is told Amol Palekar’s (”the saalaa”) need is greater :-)
mohit one of the most memorable dialogue is from Laloo Prasadji…”I will make Bihar’s roads as smooth as Hema Malini’s cheeks”…..ho ho ho…so simple message to reach out to the masses..
some others are from our dear Kerala politicians but I am not sure the punch will not be lost in translation..so i m not attempting it…
finally….the world favorite of classice bloopers is surely Mr. President George Bush…
Is’nt it amazing that these dialogues still remain on the tip of tongue of lots of people!
At times people relate easily to a movie dialogue,much in the way they would understand an idiom.
I too was inspired by one very popular dialogue from Sholay.
Following a reunion of our school batch an IT whiz amongst us set up a mailing site so that we could all keep in touch.A few of us write in,the rest perhaps just read and click off.This is what i wrote.
ARRE O KISHORE,KITNE AADMI HAI ISS MAILING SITE PAR,
YEH SAAB KE SAB KHALI MAIL PADTE KYON HAI,LIKTE KYON NAHIN,
DIDHKAR HAI,
SAB KO MAIL ME GOLI BHEJO…….
The response was …poor, even our sambha failed to reply!
Perhaps that was a wrong medium for dialogue bazi,PFC is the right place, is it?
@Saurabh
The man who played Bacchu Yadav was Sayaji Shinde. And Shool is easily the best movies I have seen – repeated viewings leaving me hungry for more.
And then there is that amazing chunk of a dialogue by Paresh Rawal in Nayak – The Real Hero where he is trying to convince a reluctant Anil Kapoor to contest the elections – something about middle class people dreaming about buying a plot of land, sitting on the lawn, wife bringing tea, and the man remarking “Darling, politics is like a gutter” but nobody gets into the gutter and tries to clean it. Wow. I wish I could reproduce the exact dialogue here. Anurag Kashyap – please take a bow. That was just awesome ! ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ ^:)^ )
A couple of dialogues that i really liked recently
Life..In A Metro:
Manoj Pahwa to Sharman Joshi:Petrol Aur Jawaani hamesha nahi rehne wali,Sambhalke kharch karo
Khosla Ka Ghosla
Navin Nischol to the character actor(Forgot his name)
“Aap Chai Lenge,Coffee”
On hearing refusal
“To phir aap mooh bandh rakhne ka kya lenge”

This is bush’s top ten most stupid things…
I was watching “Dostana” the other day… Amitabh plays this really cocky cop, and he has some awesome lines… When Zeenat Aman comes to the police station to report on some tapori chheda-chhediying her, Amitabh tells her “Aise kapde pehen kar aap bahar nikalengi, goondon ki seetiyaan nahin to kya mandir ki ghantiyaan bajyengi?” LOL!
Later when they’re discussing the situation at a party, Zeenat Aman comments on how the police aren’t doing a very good job keeping crime rates down… Amitabh replies “Police to apna kaam kar ri rahi hai par is mein kuch public ka bhi farz hai… agar aap saara ka saara ghar khula chhod dengi to chor ki neeyat to kharab hogi naa” … PRICELESS!
The Stanley Kramer classic, Inherit the wind has some of the best lines ever written, IMO. The movie is based on the notorious Hillsboro monkey trial in the US. Spencer Tracy & Frederich March play the defense and prosecution attorneys respectively and Gene Kelly is E.K.Hornbeck, a journalist. Sample the following as a sneak peak…
Woman (to Hornbeck) : Aren’t you the stranger? You must be looking for a good, clean place to stay.
Hornbeck : I had a nice, clean place lady. And I left it to come here.
Hornbeck and Henry Drummond (Tracy) are walking down the road and there’s a Bible salesman and a hotdog seller standing across the road from each other.
Hornbeck : Now that’s a tricky question. What’s hungrier? My stomach or my soul? Hotdog!
Bible salesman : Are you an infidel? An evolutionist?
Hornbeck : The worst kind. I write for a newspaper.
Hornbeck (to Drummond) : Hotdog?
Drummond : No, thanks.
Bible Salesman : Oh then sir, you, you must be a man of God.
Drummond : No, ulcers.
Hornbeck (to a chimp at a show) : Hello grandpa, are you here to testify for the prosecution or the defense?
@krysh
….and I will never know some of the classic lines in Indian movies, because I don’t speak Hindi so I’m at the mercy of the people who make the subtitles. I’m told that they are never translated correctly and I have picked up a few Hindi words so when I recognize a word the subtitle translates it differently!
one thing aboout dialogues that go down memory lane: they come naturally. they are not forced in the narrative. and when they do, it comes across. I don’t remember any film in the recent times which had this distinction. The dialogues are surely good but they don’t come naturally. Some great actors like akshay kumar, paresh rawal, irfan khan, pankaj kapoor(the memorable sequence with the small boy in blue umbrella) make it effervescent, while others say the line and you react to it, “wow kya dialogue hai!” that’s it. it doesn’t go beyond.
some of my recent favorites:
“lekin abhi to hamaare paas samay nahi hai” dil se
“jaise rajiv gandhi mera bhai hai” dil se
many others from dil se…(ones in the naxalite camp, shukla ji, SRK’s confrontation with the terrorists, piyush mishra’s lines)
jhoom barabar jhoom had some great lines too, so did bunty aur babli, haasil. I somehow don’t like the lines in Vishal’s films maqbool & omkara too much(except for few like “mumbai ki kismat mein kya likha hai” or “shakti ka santulan bane rehna chahiye”), shool of course was a milestone, I like RGV’s cheeky sense of sparce dialoguing. very sharp. sarkar(main bhi yahi chahta hoon), company(main bhi chandu nahi hai, aaj se teri company khallaas). but the one powerhouse performer for me still remains Anil Kapoor. that man even makes cheesy looks classic.
@mohit
didn’t know some politician really said that about hydel power…though am not surprised. The issues that are discussed in the parliament are simply ridiculous…
@turrtle
thanx for the name of the actor…shivaji shinde. I recalled just after u posted the comment. Inspite of being a marathi (shinde-marathi…right??) he did a gr8 job of a local Bihari MLA..a perfect villain.
Btw, I think Omkara too had some gr8 dialogs. The opening line “Chootiye aur bewakoof mein dhaage bhar ka pharak hota hai” gave an everlasting impact right in the first scene. Saif was probably at his best as Langda Tyagi. Another is the line when Tyagi encourages his friend to jump from the bridge “Kood madar***d, maine teri gotiye thoday pakad rakhi hai!” (or something to that effect..) The realistic language captures the sarcasm involved very effectively.
oops…that was Sayaji Shinde in the post above….my bad!!:(

Great Post Krysh n good list of dialogues! n my fav dialogue from ur post is AB’s “daawar seth main aaj bhi pheke hue paise nahi uthata!!’ I thot that was a kick-ass line.
When it comes to one movie that had the best dialogues it has to be sholay! Great lines spoken by memorable characters like surma bhopali, jailor(btw us movie mein asrani ka naam kya tha? was it just plain angrez ke zamaane ke jailor), Jai n Veeru, Thakur and awesome gabbar.
Then Jaane bhi do yaaron.My all time fav movie.

‘Kaccha ke registan ka naam to suna hai’
‘Haan suna hai Sir! bahut bada ha1′

“Babumoshay, zindagi badi honi chahiye.. lambi nahi” – Anand
probly will top India’s AFI list
Agreed Parth that was a great line… I love the whole monologue… sorry if I don’t get it exactly but from my recollection it went something like this:
AB: “Tum kehna kya chahate ho?”
RK: Yehi ke kya farakh hai 70 saal aur 6 mahine mein? Maut to ek pal hai dost, lekin in aanewale 6 mahine mein jo main lakhon pal jeeyoonga unka kya?
Babumoshai, zindagi badi honi chahiye lambi nahin… hadh karte ho… agar maut ke darr se zinda rehna chhod diya, to maut kisse kehte hain?”
I was maybe 12 or 13 when I first saw the film… I taped it off TV and watched this scene over and over… this monologue sort of formed a philosophy in my head… it was absolutely brilliant… I’ve been a lifelong fan of both Gulzar-saheb and Hrishikesh Mukherjee since…

Some of my most favourite ones (not very celebrated though) apart from the ones listed above:
“Duniya ke saare lafde aur bachche aurat hi paida karti hai” (from ek chaalis ki last local)
“SM kar diyo” (Saif in Omkara, referring to SMS)
“Yaa toh tu bahut badi lol hai ya chudail” (Ajay Devgan in Omkara. I loved all dialogues of the movie)
“Dhai inch ki phat gayi” (Satya)
“Woh kaun si movie thi…instant, nahi instant toh coffee hota hai… haan, Basic Instinct. (Someone comments: “bada instinctively bole hain bhaiya”)
Tee-tanic dekhe hain. Hum toh kehte hain agar jahaj nahi doobta toh oisa ekadh scene aur ho jaata.” (From Shool)
“Yeh Sudhir Lallan Vinod kaun hain”
Sudhir hum hain, aur baaki ke dono hum hain bhaiya” (from Shool)
Rajpal Yadav in Garam Masala: “Mera boss ek number ka kameena hai. Ek baar mere paas daaru peene ke paise nahi the, toh maine uski nayi Mercedes ke chaar pahiye bech diye. usne itni chhoti si baat par mujhe naukri se nikaal diya” (Something to this effect, I love that scene)
My all time fave comedy line from paresh rawal in Daud when he gets onto a bus, he’s very hassled when the conductor asks him for the ticket.
Condcutor: Ticket. Ticket
Paresh: Arey nahi chahiye bhai” (u have to watch that scene to feel it)
And many more…………………..

but i want to bring here the fond memories of the “cult classic “( so bad that it is good..) GUNDA…STARRING MITHUN CHAKRAVORTY N THE BUNCH OF GUNDAS…it has the most melo-come-dramatic dialogues interspersed at every moment…
the movie is favourite in all IITs n even my medico friends in USA are jus mesmerised by the verbal profundity n inane fecundity of the movie..
the movie has over 2000 fans on orkut n gunda community is the most creative community on orkut….

Overlooked by most of the film buffs, I think Big B has given completely new dimension to the most famous dialogue ‘Kaun Kambhakt’ in Abhimaan. So much bitterness! Never thought that it can be used in such a way.
Helen Hunt in ‘as Good as it gets’ — “When you first entered the restaurant, I thought you were handsome… and then, of course, you spoke”
or something close. The film is full of great ones. ‘You make me want to be a better person’ — all time mush king!
@RK, Indeed Gulzar’s movies have some memorable one-liners and a separate post could be written for that..Even some of Subhash Ghai’s movies have real punchy dialogues as Mohit pointed out Bad man as an example..Another one that comes to mind is Dr Dang ko pehli baar kisi ne thapad maara hai..Is thapad ki goonj suni(and it goes on something on the lines of is goonj ki goonj tumhe sunai deti rahegi..)
@ Thanks Narcisist,jayzee for pointing out the corrections..Yes jayzee it would be really interesting to compile a list of top hundred dialogues in Hindi cinema..
@Saurabh thanx for appreciating the post..
@parth#30,yes Anand has some memorable lines,especially Rajesh Khanna’s dialogue replayed on the spool tape player,when he dies at the climax..
@NoVaDj, thats the problem..subtitles ruin the nuances and if you are an afficianado of Hindi Films,english transalation of dialogues kill the spirit of the language.
In which movie did Anil Kapoor say Jhakaas!!
Yudh
Oh Yeah,Thanks pavan
