  • Looking back at the Noughties-2002
    Last year we said, ‘Things can’t go on like this’, and they didn’t, they got worse.- Will Rogers The  world  entered  2002,  reeling  from a  dot com bust,  9/11  and  the  Enron  scandal.  And the  eternal  hope  that  things  could not  get  more  worse.  That  the  way  up  from  Ground  Zero  would  be only  upwards. ...

  • 10 Best Hindi Films of the Noughties
    The noughties saw a spurt of films, hitherto unfancied and at times unacknowledged, that dabbed the viewers and the Hindi Film industry (HFI). This decade in Indian films has perhaps been the strongest in terms of ideas, style, narration, and development of new talent.

  • Y2K, The Decade that was… Part 1
    The last year, 2010 of this decade is about to take flight. And while we all at PFC and numerous other sites, blogs and boards dedicated towards the passion for cinema, are talking, discussing, trashing, uplifting, ditching, or fucking up movies and movie professionals and anything related to cinema, very few have had the chance to take a pause, a breather and look at...

  • Baabarr: A violent tale of a don of Kanpur
    Film starts with a good promise. Narration, first by Om Puri and later by a boy, sets the nature of the film very well for the audience. Boy’s narration sounds raw but interesting.

  • Blackbird: Filmi mind @ a play
    I begin this post with a solemn prayer to Lord CinemaIndra that may the producer-exhibitor stand-off get over soon or we cinephiles might soon have to regress and begin to write about stardust awards, saas-bahu soaps or random PFC meets that never happened.

  • In-film advertising. Haan ya Na?
    It’s a B-E-A-U-tiful Saturday evening & alas I am working. Clients are exploiting recession the most & twisting it in all ways possible to squeeze their ad agencies dry. Well, as long as my ‘meter is down’ all is well. Still not prepared to deal with ‘unemployment’ & its aftermaths. Heard & read really tragic stories of...

  • Writing a jhakaas scene
    Most amateur, and many professional screenplays are dull, Dull, DULL! Characters state the obvious, don’t really do anything but spout exposition, and “exchange soulful looks,” “have a look of great determination,” or my favorite, “sea of emotions washes across his face – denial, sadness, anger, resignation (can’t remember...
