The whole genre of ‘leave your brains at home Hindi Movie comedies’ was started by him . He has churned out hits after hits in that genre  . But frankly none of his movies can be described...

  • Quick Gun Muruganning the Web : Mind it
    Quick Gun MuruganThe gun quickly hits the web with an onslaught of trailers. What we would love to see is how India receives this multi-lingual comedy. So far it’s been doing the rounds of festivals, Florence last year and IFFLA earlier this year.

  • Contemporary Tamil Comedy- Guilty Pleasures
    I am currently in Chennai. There is now a new TV channel called ‘Adithya’ which screens clips of many comic scenes in contemporary Tamil movies. ‘It’s time pass’, says mum.

  • Comedy Films Today
    If I say Agreement 123 (Atomic Energy Agreement with the US) reflects the comedies made today in our country, you will call me mad. Where is the connection? But it has. Well, we are in the process of being Americanised. That’s a general term to signify consumerism apart from other serious repercussions depending upon your world view. However, the fundamental tenet...
