  • The ‘Frozen’ DVD Release Pics – Part 1
    Some images. Hopefully Shivajee-san will be able put up more soon. Apologies but was far back in the audience to get a clear picture with my tiny camera. And some 50000 people turned up to cheer ;) Also have an incredibly funny anecdote snippet video of Vishal Bharadwaj talking about his experiences in Ladakh – but darn heavy file – will try and upload ASAP.

  • Get A Celebrity To Say Few Things About Your Film….
    Yes, that is what I have been hearing from the time we wanted to run a publicity campaign for Frozen. We wanted to follow a new way of releasing an independent film…very few prints (three to be precise),  platform/staggered release, low cost marketing and blah blah. But one support we wanted was from the media, to write something interesting about the film  and...

  • Frozen : Access Denied
    iView Author: Gaurang (Pune, India) Email: j.gaurang [at] gmail [dot] com Frozen : Access Denied My experience of Frozen was a Déjà vu. Not in the terms of its content, but the emptiness, the frustration and resentment, which I experience when a supposedly awesome film leaves me blank, confused, indifferent and untouched. I still remember seeing Taxi Driver few years...

  • FROZEN PREMIERE, PUNE
    Saturday, 30 May, 2009 has been the fifth happiest day of my life. For a life of 32 years full of happenings, this is more than just a mere statement. It’s a conviction of priorities. I have unashamedly admitted this to some close friends, as well as to the team of Frozen, just before they were about to leave for Mumbai, after the successful premiere of Frozen in Pune....

  • Satyendra achieves the impossible!
    Satyendra Jha, fellow author on PFC, has gone and put his hand up for good cinema in the most unorthodox manner possible! He has organised the Pune Premiere of FROZEN by buying out a show today (4.30 pm at Inox) and inviting the Director over to be a part of the screening. Shivajee, in turn, has mobilised Yashpal Sharma, Shankar Raman, Gauri and many others and is on...

  • Frozen: The Cold Colours of Life
    Sneaking by that bylane, those deep dark eyes having so much to convey, the starkling innocence awaiting corruption, and that naïve beauty, it all was innocently real, it had nothing false about it, it was innocence packed in a plain package of innocence. The name of the movie instantly conjured up images of either awe, shock, magic and ironically pain, bondage and obviously...

  • Frozen with the Pfc junta @ 10.30 on 8th May
    Among all the brouhaha of the multiplex-producers standoff a small film released yesterday, Frozen, winner of 18 international awards and made by our very own Shivajee Chandrabhushan. How could Pfc not watch it together? So 10.30 show at Andheri we all landed up, full of anticipation. Mind you some of us had already seen the film but if we, the so-called upholder’s...

    iView Author: Hemant Gaba (Mumbai, India) Email: pennywisefilms [at]gmail[dot]com Content : FROZEN – A Film Of Colors I had heard Frozen is a black and white film, but after watching it i will disagree. It had so many colors of life and that’s too beautifully painted. Gauri’s love for his brother, her ambiguity regarding her boyfriend, Karma (Danny)...

  • When I Met Danny Denzongpa!
    Before I made the move to Mumbai a year and a half ago, I thought that I’d probably get my first break as an actor playing Danny Denzongpa’s son in some movie. I met the man himself last Saturday and had a wonderful chat with him. I’m still not over it. Shivajee Chandrabhushan, director of the much-awarded (and finally to-be-released on May 8th) Frozen, told fellow...

  • Producers/Distributors Vs Multiplexes Standoff- the 3rd Dimension

  • How risky is Film Making in India today?
    At the very outset I would like to make a couple of things very clear – this is not a critique on any particular kind of movie or personality and I’m not a film maker, at least not yet. So what exactly is on my mind & what am I trying to say? Well for starters what I need to impress upon is that cinema at the end of day in spite of being an art form, still has...

  • Melted by Frozen
    Vipin Handa, film critic and filmmaker, is back to reviewing films, as he reviews ‘Frozen’ exclusively for PFC. Sometimes you are numb, sometimes you are robbed of words, and sometimes you are baffled. All three emotions struck me in a row, when after 25 years of reviewing films, nonsensical films, powerful films, beautiful films, and ‘run of the mill’...

  • Froze with a glimpse of Frozen
    The beautifully etched first shot, the equisite black and white shades to it, the sheer sensuality and the stunning cinematography, is all you can capture of Frozen by the first few seconds of the glimpse of the movie. We have seen wallpapers, stills, behind the scene videos, but when it is wrapped into that four minute trailer, and the final look comes out, it is worth...

  • Frozen – A Beautifully Unique Looking Film That Deserves The Big Screen
    I’m not sure where to start when talking about Shivajee Chandrabhushan’s Frozen. I’ve met him at a couple of PFC get-togethers and he’s a really nice guy, although he says he drove his crew pretty hard during the shoot. So there’s a little loss of objectivity about someone’s work when you know them and like or dislike them. I took along...

  • Screening Of Frozen…
    I didn’t know how to start this post. But as the hope for the release of Frozen is getting brighter I was advised to do some self-promotion. Frozen has become something like an “underground film”. People talk about it but have not seen it. It’s a different matter that it has been to 30 International Film Festivals and has won 19 awards in the...
