    Sankat City: Love in Underwar
    I watched Sankat City at the premier show on 8th July. The brief account of my experience, accompanied by few poor quality celebrity pictures can be read here. What I did not mention there, is that I was sitting beside Aamir Bashir (the other cop with Jimmy Shergil in A Wednesday) and Anurag Kashyap few seats away on the same row. Anupam Kher stood on the aisle and started...

    (NOTES ON WRITING SANKAT CITY) Long ago, a Shanghai Night. It was late, the joint was nearly empty. I doodled on a paper napkin - INT. BIRJU’S KHOLI – MUMBAI – DAY Birju tears open the telegram. “Dadaji serious Stop Come home soon Stop” A worried Birju removes the cover of his cannon, quickly changes into HAWABAAN HERO costume, lights the fuse and slips into...

    Sankat City
    Last day of shooting. We are filming from below, a scuffle between Guru and Shetty, who are at the window of the first floor. I look through the viewfinder, I can’t see Shetty, though he is very much there. Chiru the cinematographer says, ‘damn, he is dark, let me throw some more light on him’. He does so, but Shetty still doesn’t register. He throws...

    My thoughts on ‘Frozen’- A brilliant celluloid dream
    March 13th, 2009 will remain a special day for me. That’s the day when I had a very interesting experience of watching 2 interesting movies. Before anybody asks me what’s so special about watching 2 movies in a day, after all most of have us grown up watching multiple movies in a day-let me tell you that the day was unique for me due to the films watched and the person...

    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...

    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...

    WTS : How the hell Shyam Benegal could make this vast socio-political cinematic collage
    How Shyam Benegal has managed to handle such a vast and loosely scattered subject and presented such a fine piece of cinema? How he has managed to present so many differently looking and behaving characters in a single film? How he has managed to give so different physical gestures and psychological understandings to different characters? As its known he was born in...
