Nikal ja saamne se nahin to maar dalunga!

Thus gentle words of endearment did Paresh Rawal speak to his make up man of eight years on the first morning the beard found his cheeks on the sets of Oye Lucky.

The beard was a problem. Paresh Rawal hates putting on a false beard. His skin can’t take it. He can’t talk. He shuts off. He hates growing one even more, and even if he did grow one, by the time he would grow one the size we needed we would all have reached dotage.

As soon as the beard was fixed, the generally happy, relaxed mood of the set changed. We had become used to a Paresh who was easy, patient, chilled, forever on the sets, standing at his mark happily even between lighting adjustment, benevolently chiding the crew to get …

Starring Abhay Deol, Paresh Rawal in a triple role amongst others in a splendid ensemble cast, the film is directed by the critically acclaimed director of “Khosla ka Ghosla” Dibakar Banerjee.

Inspired by the incredible true story of Lucky Singh, an extremely charismatic and fearless confidence man and thief who socialized with the rich, famous and influential …

Am I a funny guy or what?

My most unsettling experience after the release of Khosla ka Ghosla was seeing the audience laugh.

They were laughing at places where Jaideep and I had never intended them to laugh. They were not laughing at the places where we were expecting them to get the bends guffawing. Then they came out sniggering, smiling, giggling – and if it hadn’t been for the satisfied sigh that we could hear from everyone of them – we would have been really puzzled.

You see, I never made KKG as a comedy. I made it as the story it was, and life as I know it – funny, sad, bitter, sweet, quiet, noisy, but never predictable. That is life, isn’t it?

The real comedy came later, after KKG took off. Not a month would go by when …

We love to watch the cheating designed by Robert Redford and Paul Newman against Robert Shaw in The Sting, where they establish a false set up where Robert Shaw could be and would be conned. This is intriguing, interesting and thrilling to watch it and it remains interesting even during the repetitive watch also when we know in no uncertain terms what is going to happen and no mystery is involved anymore for us in the plot. Knowing the plot does not reduce our joy and after first watching we enjoy the feeling that this is the plot and how convincingly it is shown visually.

We love to watch Carl Reiner going into the casino as a rich man to establish the background to steal the money of Andy Garcia in Ocean’s Eleven .

Khosla Ka Ghosla tries to combine the Hrishikesh Mukharjee kind of film …

It’s been a long time coming.

Just read an article on IndiaFM.com that Dibakar Banerjee, Director of the critically acclaimed, immensely likeable film “Khosla Ka Ghosla” has finally announced his next film.

Titled “Oye Lucky, Lucky Oye” (kickass title IMHO) the film stars the talented Mr. Abhay Deol as a thief who, as per Banerjee himself, “starts a normal thief and then later climbs up the status graph and becomes a very rich and well known crook.”

The film also co-stars Neetu Chandra (of Traffic Signal… we’ll conviently forget that Garam Masala was infact her debut film) and, what seems to be the ace up Banerjee’s sleeve, Paresh Rawal in an interesting Triple Role.

If Anupam Kher, Ranvir Shoery, Parvid Dabas, Navin Nischol and even Tara Sharma put in some stellar performances, one looks forward to even more from “Oye Lucky, Lucky Oye” (which I’m guessing will be referred to …
