wichy: отсюда Over the years, Amitabh Bachchan has made his characters immortal. And never mind his age and experience, the actor is still experimenting. He is playing different kinds of roles and also appearing in interesting ‘get ups’ that fit his character to the T. Bachchan played a royal guard in Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s Eklavya - The Royal Guard. In his more recent Nishabd , he dared to romance a 16-year old. Similarly in Cheeni Kum he played a 64-year-old chef who is elder than his prospective father-in-law. He sportingly sported a pony tail, and wore those funky glasses that made quite a style statement. Also, in RGV Ke Aag he played a dreaded gangster Babban – the very filthy, nose-digging, negative character. After playing such varied roles, Amitabh now is all set to play gambler in Leena Yadav’s forthcoming film titled Teen Patti . Leena, who directed Sunjay Dutt and Aishawarya Rai in Shabd , is happy to have an actor like Amitabh Bachchan in her second film. Produced by Ambika A Hinduja, who also produced Being Cyrus , Teen Patti will have Bachchan in a completely different avatar. When contacted, Leena confirms, “Yes I will be doing a film called Teen Patti with Amitabh Bachchan. I can’t talk about the film as it’s in its initial stages and it’s too early to say anything.” It is believed that the film will commence some time next year. Now, let’s wait and watch how Amitabh experiments with his character and look this time round. Will he gel his hair behind in ekdum casino gambler style, or what? Let your imagination take over… Амит выступит вновь в абсолютно новом имидже в фильме Лины Ядав - режиссера Shabd. Фильм называется Teen Patti, и Амит будет играть профессионального игрока. Продюсирует фильм тот же продюсер, который продюсировал Being Cyrus. Фильм должны снять в следующем году.

wichy: отсюда Now this is official news coming to you live from London's Odeon cinema in Leicester Square. Yesterday, (21st October, Sunday) at the Times BFI 51st London Film Festival, Rituparno Ghosh's The Last Lear was screened to packed audiences including the media, and it was none other than super star, Amitabh Bachchan who graced the occasion along with his producer. Rituparno Ghosh, the director of The Last Lear could not attend the screening because his father was not keeping well in India. Firstly, Big B answered the questions asked by the media and then saw his first English film from start to finish only coming on the stage for the one last time to reveal an answer of a question asked by one of the members sitting in the audience. In front of hundreds of people Amitabh Bachchan said that he will be a part of Vishal Bhardwaj's trilogy of Shakespearean inspired film and this time the maverick director is to cast Big B in the lead role from an adaptation of William Shakespeare's King Lear. He also added that the film will be out in 2008 and the script is currently being worked on and will get over by the end of this year. Read this space tomorrow to know more on what Amitabh Bachchan had to say about his role in The Last Lear at the Times BFI's 51st London Film Festival В Лондонском кинотеатре Odeon вчера прошел показ фильма Ритупарно Гхоша The Last Lear - в рамках Times BFI 51st London Film Festival. На показе присутствовал Амитабх, который играет в фильме главную роль. Отвечая на вопросы прессы и зрителей, амитабх подтвердил, что он участвует в проекте Вишала Бхарадваджа - последнем фильме из трилогии, вдохновленной Шекспиром. На этот раз это будет фильм-адаптация по пьесе "Король Лир". Фильм выйдет в 2008, работа над сценарием будет закончена к концу этого года. Потрясная новость!!!

wichy: 4837464 : я что-то совсем запуталась. фильм готов или не готов? The Last Lear Ритупарногхошевский готов - но это не про шекспировского короля, это про актера, этого короля играющего... А Бхарадвадж задумал адаптацию самой пьесы, и Амит в его адаптации короля лира и будет играть.

ЯНА: wichy : На этот раз это будет фильм-адаптация по пьесе "Король Лир". Фильм выйдет в 2008, работа над сценарием будет закончена к концу этого года. ...ну вот... и на Шекспира замахнулись...wichy : Амит в его адаптации короля лира и будет играть. млин..только о себе и думает.А как потом Шах его будет играть через несколько лет а ?

wichy: ЯНА : ...ну вот... и на Шекспира замахнулись.. Ну дык не первый раз... третий ужо. Руку-то Бхарадвадж набил.. :) ЯНА : как потом Шах его будет играть через несколько лет а ? Ведь опять скажут - ремейк... ну не виноват же Шах, что Амит все хорошие роли переиграл и его не дождался...

ЯНА: wichy : Ведь опять скажут - ремейк конечно скажут...а Шах опять выкрутится и скажет,что дескать с детства любил Шекспира и Баччана...и наконец то мечта сбылась!!Бедный Амит-столько поколений кормит,а благодарность-сомнительная.

Remita: wichy : амитабх подтвердил, что он участвует в проекте Вишала Бхарадваджа - последнем фильме из трилогии, вдохновленной Шекспиром. На этот раз это будет фильм-адаптация по пьесе "Король Лир". Шикарно!!!!!

wichy: отсюда - интервью с Амитом There was no red carpet, a few media people and hardly any one around in the busiest place in Central London's Leicester Square where the screening of The Last Lear was about to take place as a part of the 51st London Film Festival. But it took less than a minute for the area outside Odeon cinema to be mobbed by his fans screaming for his one look. The dull and dreary afternoon suddenly turned out to be an exciting one as the one and only, Bollywood's biggest super-star Amitabh Bachchan graced the occasion. Wearing his suede black over coat with a pink shirt and a tie, he came... (in Odeon cinema)...he saw (the film)... and he conquered (the hearts of his innumerable fans). I spoke to the living legend for a brief five minutes before the curtains lifted. What fresh new outlook has The Last Lear brought in your film career as of now? The fact that it gave me an opportunity to work in English, an opportunity to recite Shakespeare on screen, something that we all have grown up with during our education process, the fact that this is more artistic cinema and not the commercial escapist cinema that I've been associated with since last forty years and the fact that I'm working with an extremely talented, sensitive and an aesthetic director, Rituparno Ghosh. I'm very happy with this association and happy with this product and I hope we do many more films together. Do you see a bright future for yourself by doing English films? I don't see or predict my future. You, the media and my audiences are the ones who make and break our future. An actor's work is to simply work and your work is to simply appreciate or criticize our work. If you think that my work is good and is worth an applause then you will yourself make my future bright. But how satisfied are you today by attending the screening of your first English Film? An actor should never be satisfied. The day I am satisfied, I will stop working. I think every actor should strive to work to achieve perfection rather than achieve satisfaction. How different was it to recite your lines in English compared to your usual Hindi dialogues? I think the medium is the same. Cinema is a universal language. But yes, it's a new experience for all of us. It has been challenging, different but exciting. We are seeing you a lot more in the UK now-a-days. Any plans of settling down here? No not at all. It's just that work brings me here. I was here a few months ago for the IIFA's and now for the screening of my film The Last Lear at the London Film Festival. Hopefully there will be many more occasions. We hear that in one of the scenes from the film where you are shown drunk, you talk like a Shakespearean actor. Are you so inspired by Shakespeare? I had to; I had to get inspired from William Shakespeare. My role demanded it. But this is the aspect of us Indians. When an Indian talks to a Britisher, his accent changes like that of a Britisher, when he talks to an American, he brings in the American twang and when he is with an Italian, he tries to speak in Italian accent. That's the quality an Indian possesses. But when he is drunk, he is back to his Bengali, Gujarati or Punjabi. That's what I brought in The Last Lear. Did you get inspired from any veteran stage actor in Indian cinema to portray your role of Harry in The Last Lear? No, this is purely my own instinct. I thought that maybe because Harry, that's me, has worked on the stage and Shakespeare, he would always want to be slightly over the top when he spoke to anyone. Thus, he behaves like a stage artist who speaks Shakespearean language. With so many films you're doing, isn't it right in saying that the angry young man is getting younger day by day? No I'm not. In fact the angry young man is getting older. I've just moved into sixty six. (laughs)

wichy: отсюда The Big B returned to India earlier this week from the London Film festival where he was greeted to a standing ovation. He's now shooting for two back-to-back films Bhootnath and Alladdin where he plays a ghost and djinn. Says the Big B, “I am shooting for Bhootnath now, which completes by the middle of November. I start with Sujoy Ghosh's Alladdin soon after, as also Shoojit Sarkar's tentatively titled Shoebite, a working title just yet, and Leena Das's Teen Patti. All these will be on till December." Big B then starts work on his first full-fledged international project. "From January 2008 I'll be working with Mira Nair, Warner Bros and Johnny Depp on Shantaram.” For some time now, the rumour mills have been insisting that the Big B is going bald for Mira Nair's film. The Big B richly rubbishes the rumours. "This is completely untrue! I've no knowledge of any such requirement for Mira's film, nor have I spoken to anyone about it. When I heard about this I spoke to Mira, and she rubbished it. She told me she hasn't even envisaged me as bald for Shantaram let alone share it with the media which is so busy imagining me bald through morphed pictures on the net, etc. But sorry I'm not obliging." After Shantaram the Big B has Pocket Maar with Ravi Chopra. "Ram Gopal Varma, Balki, Prasoon Pandey, Deepa Mehta and a few others are under consideration," he concludes. Баччан в начале недели возвратился с Лондонского кинофестиваля. Теперь он снимется друг за другом в двух фильмах - Bhootnath и Alladdin, где играет соответственно призрака и джинна. Съемки Bhootnath завершатся в середине ноября, и сразу после этого он начнет сниматься в Alladdin а затем - в фильме Shoebite, и в фильме Лины Дас Teen Patti. Все это продлится до середины Декабря. Затем Амит начнет работать над своим первым настоящим международным проектом - с января 2008 г. он будет сниматься в фильме Миры Наир, Уорнер Бразерс и Джонни Депа - Shantaram. Бриться налысо, вопреки слухам, Баччан не будет. Затем будет Pocket Maar - фильм Рави Чопры. Проекты РГВ, Балки, Прасуна Пандея, Дипы Мехты и несколько других пока обговариваются.

wichy: отсюда - эксклюзивное интервью с Амитом с indiafm. He is known as the Big B of the Indian Cinema. If he was born before the invention of the alphabets ABCD, we are sure that the alphabets would have started with BACD…such is his impact not only on the Indian cinema, but also on the international scene. Bachchan was on BBC Radio recently, where has was interviewed and he spoke not just Bollywood, but, much beyond that! Presented here are the transcripts of this exiting in depth interview with none other than the Big B of Bollywood! Over to you Sir…. When will you be acting with Dharmendra again? You have some good movies together like Ram Balram and Chupke Chupke. That is an interesting question; we were neighbors, Dharamji and myself. And we are very close friends but we haven't had an opportunity for a very long time. And I would like to believe that this request goes out to many producers out in India, hopefully they would do something. I will be delighted to come back with him. Your eyes sort of reacted at the idea of you'll to come back together again. Ya, it's always good to know even at this age, we have few fans who want to see us together. And it's wonderful to work with friend and a great human being. When you look back specifically, at the time of Sholay, would it have achieved what it did if you hadn't been in it, after all it took some convincing for the Sippies to give you the role? Ya, it did, Sholay would have succeeded even without me or any of the others. Story itself was so strong, the way it was made. It was just superb so I say that all the time even for films like Deewaar and some of the other successful films, it's the script and the writing, the way it's made that matters. I think the actors just only fulfill their duty and I don't think they all have the power to alter the fate of the film, purely because who they are and their presences in the film. It's the strength of the film that really matters and I would like to believe that Sholay would have succeeded without the actors that they did have. What about the Aag, is it true that you won't happy with the Aag? Well, Aag, I think its not gone down very well and there are several reason for this and it is pointless discussing them now because the film is over and done with, but I had a good time playing the film. I was very keen to do Gabbar's role, when it was first narrated to me; I wasn't allowed to do that then and now I was and now it was not accepted by the people so u just go along with what the people want to see. It was interesting to play villain and try do all kinds of nasty thing on the screen, and played and been a goody throughout my career. Do you think, remake of Sholay should never have been considered. Well, now when you look back at it the answer would be 'No', but when we were are working on it we said 'why not'. We got our response from the audience and therefore that's where chapter ends. When you look back to your career, which genre do you feel changed your life and was it the angry man and what impact did that on India cinema? I really do not know, I was very keen to get a job, and I didn't know that I was creating some kind of cult figure. But this is a question that would be very adequately answered by the writers of that time. Salim Javed who wrote Zanjeer, Deewar and several other films, were of the opinion that Zanjeer came at the time when there was a lot of turmoil within the country. There was the feeling that the system perhaps was not working correctly and therefore you need one single individual to stand up and face the system and fight it. And any and everyone who did that, at that point of time became a hero. This was their reading of the situation this was not my reading. I was merely playing a role, I just happened to be around when they narrated the script. I'm happy that they thought like this, I'm happy that the film did well, I'm happy that people thought I was the impersonation of this sole character that is going to rectify the entire nation. I'm doing nothing of the sort, I merely playing a role. Similarly I think when the issue of the system and the angry young man tie-up went out of the scene and there was progress and there was economic liberalization in the country and every one was happy and had lots of money to spend so on. People wanted to see some thing light, happy, and colorful, full of romance and joy and in come this new brigade of youngsters who brought all that whether it is Shahrukh, Aamir, or Salman they continue to do that. The atmosphere in the country is now very up beat and I doubt very much if the angry young man and angry old man would be as successful. I think it is a lot to do with the temperament of the country and how wonderful that there are writers that can gauge that, push it to actor like us, and give us an opportunity to portray that. I was very keen to do Gabbar's role, when it was first narrated to me; I wasn't allowed to do that then and now I was and now it was not accepted by the people Picking from that, where you do see Indian cinema going now because lots of ambitious projects are being made these days, new technology are used, lots of tribute subjects being tackled as well and you have been in some of these projects. Having a different feel to them do you cherish this is as an actor and do you think this is right way to Indian film industry to be moving. I think any kind of challenge for any actor is always welcome; it is also very interesting to see different kinds of subjects being attempted now. We have never ever dreamt doing things like this 10-15 years ago. So it really reflects what is happening in the country and the country wants to make progress, the country wants to reject some of the old formatted kind of cinema that they are used to seeing. They where very keen to see something different as we were just saying, if the film is good irrespective of who is acting in it , it is doing well because people wanting to look at something good and different. I think the future for Indian cinema is fantastic. I think future for entire entertainment industry; there is a projection that within the next 15-20 years the entertainment and two other entities are going to be the foremost economic factors in the country. This is enormous for a cinema that was almost above 50-60 years ago. Children from good homes were not allowed to associate with cinema; I myself was not allowed to see a movie. And now you have diploma courses, you have management degrees and you have chapters in IIMs of India where they introduce you to the economic of entertainment and how to produce a film and how to manage the production company. So it has become very professional, and largely due the fact that this is indeed a replication of what is happening in the west and how the corporates of the west have developed the entertainment industry that is what we are imbibing now and that's wonderful. What do you think about the Indian cinema gaining a crossover appeal now, with you coming to the London Film Festival to launch your film and got a whole program dedicated to the Indian cinema? Do you think that things have moved on, say in last, 10- 15 years? I would have never ever dreamt that we would be welcomed in London, there would be a premiere, there would be a festival, our films would be invited, and we would be called to the BBC for the interview to talk about our films and about the characters we play. This is all very progressive. We never hoped something like this would happen but this is happening. And it shows even though people were cynical in west about the content of our cinema, because of being so escapist in nature. There has been now, within the past few years the kind of acceptance to this kind of cinema. I'm very happy that the Indian commercial cinema hasn't changed at all. It hasn't its changed its format. There are the songs and dances and I think that's what is making it even more attractive to the western audiences who were perhaps, for at least, over several year were cynical and critical of this kind of format. But, now it has become almost now acceptable form and we are really happy about it. Which is your best role till date, considering the fact that you have quite recently you have taken adventurous roles like Nishbad and Cheeni Kum, there is lot of criticism on that? All the criticisms are always fair because they come from an audience that has paid money and have gone and seen the film. It's for us to really to take up what we want to do in the film. For me, at the age of 60, you can imagine what kind of role I'm going to get! I can't romance with young girl even though I did in Nishabd which I feel was an unusual freaky situation. I think what went wrong with Nishabd was the fact the people looked at it social and moral issue rather than challenge for an actor and for a director to make the film on a subject which could be as sensitive as this film. And that's what went wrong in the film as they seem to idolize their leading men and heroes. And they want all heroes to do right things in life which is good. But we are also actors and sometimes, we do want challenge in different situation. I took Nishabd as a challenge. I personally believe that RGV made an excellent film. You always talk about you wanting to takes up films that challenge you. What is the next stage of your challenge? I don't know as I don't plan. These things just happen. The other day, Mira Nair came across to me and said she wanted me to do her film and asked me to read the enormous book. It was not a deliberately planned step. Why did you never embrace Hollywood sooner? Because, such a thing never came my way. I think that socially, it would be difficult for Hollywood to accept an Indian in the scenario of American films, but, as they say, time is the best healer. What's your take on your daughter-in-law Aishwarya Rai, and her Hollywood progress? She has worked in lot of films and her celebrity status started from something that's international. She has already had her presence felt and it seems only obvious for people in western world to look at her and give an opportunity to work with them as she decided to work. Which era do you think, would best define as pinnacle of Indian cinema? I hope that there is no any such era because, as I said earlier that it's very stifle and not progressive at all. I hope every era makes some addition and some progress, which adds something to the industry, and in that way any industry would grow. The other thing is people connected with a particular era always consider that it be best time of their life. I hope this continues because this depicts progress. I'm sure that Abhishek would say that this period, that this decade is best because he started working and he is associated with it. I would have said these years before, but I'm a little different because I happened to have completed 3 decades already. So, it's tough for me to say which decade is best for me, and I like to associate with present generation and would like to continue that.

Lo: wichy : он участвует в проекте Вишала Бхарадваджа - последнем фильме из трилогии, вдохновленной Шекспиром. На этот раз это будет фильм-адаптация по пьесе "Король Лир". Мне сразу же "Ран" Куросавы вспомнился... То же адаптация "Короля Лира", но на японской почве.. Мне фильм очень понравился, помницца.. Это один из лучших вариантов "Короля Лира", ну , а теперь уже и просто классика мирового кино. Интересно, что у индийцев выйдет.

wichy: отсюда Sanjay Dutt's loss is Amitabh Bachchan's gain. He has sung the title song of his forthcoming film Aladdin which was originally to be sung by Sanjay Dutt. According to our source, since Sanjay was busy with his court proceedings the makers had no option but to go ahead and get Big B to croon instead. Says a source from the production unit, "The title song of Aladdin is sung by Big B which was actually supposed to be sung by Sanjay Dutt. But since Sanjay was occupied with his court and jail visits, we got Big B to sing the song. The director couldn't postpone the project any further." The shooting of Aladdin has begun with Reitesh Deshmukh who reportedly plays Aladdin. Miss Sri Lanka, Jacqueline Fernandes, has been roped in to play the character of Jasmine. Initially the role was to be played by Ayesha Takia. The shooting of the film has been going on in full swing at a location in Jodhpur, Rajasthan. Says our source, "A special team of graphic designers are flown in form Hollywood to work on the special effects and graphics of this mega-budget film. Big B, who plays the genie in the film, will join the sets very soon. Амит исполнит заглавную песню в фильме Аладдин. Предполагалось, что ее будет петь Санджай Датт, но он слишком занят своими судебными делами, создатели фильма пригласили Амита, поскольку дальше откладывать фильм уже нельзя. Съемки Аладдина уже начались, Ритеш Дешмук играет главного героя, Мисс Шри Ланка Жаклин Фернандес - принцессу Жасмин (сначала предполагалось, что ее будет играть Аеша Такиа), съемки идут в Джодхпуре, Раджастан. Приглашена специальная команда дизайнеров из Голливуда, которые будут делать спецэффекты и графику для мегабюджетного фильма. Баччан играет джинна и скоро тоже присоединится к съемкам

wichy: отсюда Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan has donated a fabulous selection of clothes from his personal wardrobe to Oxfam, an international aid agency, to celebrate Diwali. The clothes will be sold in an online auction on Dec 1. And in a move designed to involve more of Britain's estimated three million Asians in charity work -- especially during festive times -- the Big B is calling on them to follow his lead. The Bollywood legend was inspired to donate around 50 items of clothing, including embroidered shirts, suits and jackets to the aid agency after visiting an Oxfam shop in London earlier this year. Oxfam is hoping to raise money from the sale of his items in order to fund the development work that the organisation does worldwide. "I urge everyone to come forward and contribute very generously to this noble cause," Bachchan said. "Diwali is traditionally a time for thinking of those in need -- and of getting rid of old clothes and buying new ones and we are hoping Mr. Bachchan's donation will inspire many Hindus, Jains and Sikhs to donate their clothes to their local Oxfam shops and buy fun Diwali gifts from its Unwrapped catalogue," Oxfam said. Oxfam Unwrapped offers gifts that have been identified by the people that Oxfam works with around the world. They have told Oxfam what gifts they need to make the biggest difference in working themselves out of poverty. Gifts include items such as fertiliser (£38), seeds (£10), goats (£25), and toilets (£50). More than 1.2 million gifts have been bought since the Oxfam Unwrapped was launched in 2004, supporting people in 49 countries, including Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal and Pakistan. "It is a huge honour for Oxfam to have been given these donations by Amitabh Bachchan, and this generosity underlines why he has maintained such enormous popularity for more than 30 years. By donating his clothes Big B is helping Oxfam to make a huge difference in tackling poverty, suffering and injustice around the world," said Pushpanath Krishnamurthy of Oxfam. "We can all do the same at Diwali and by buying Diwali gifts from Oxfam Unwrapped too, we can bring the light of hope to even more people," he said. Big B's clothes will be exhibited in Oxfam shops so the public has a chance to see first-hand the items the Bollywood legend has donated. Амит пожертвовал часть своего гардероба в пользу Oxfam - международного агентства помощи. Одежда будет продана на он-лайн аукционе 1 декабря. Так что если кто-то хочет обзавестись чем-то "с барского плеча" - не провороньте

wichy: отсюда Mumbai, Nov 8 (IANS) Diwali will most probably be a quiet affair for the Bachchan family with the condition of Teji Bachchan, mother of megastar Amitabh Bachchan, continuing to remain "critical but stable".

Apart from Amitabh, his brother Ajitabh, Abhishek and Aishwarya, and Tina Anil Amabani came to visit Teji. In 2004 and 2006, Teji had spent long spells in the hospital. She has been kept there to ensure round-the-clock expert health care Состояние мамы Амита Теджи Баччан по-прежнему остается "критическим, но стабильным". 92-летняя Теджи была переведена в палату интенсивной терапии больницы Лилавати в эту среду.

Remita: Aamir should see his own work: Amitabh Bachchan Subhash K Jha Catches The Big B In An Uncharacteristically Outspoken Mood. Last week you saw Sanjay Bhansali's Saawariya. What did you think of your Black director's efforts this time? Saawariya was poetry on celluloid. An exquisitely presented Broadway-styled musical set within Indian sentiments. It boldly defied the routine format of escapist commercial fare …. a malaise that all our films have come to be so doggedly accused of. It's daring and original and with such a high quotient of aesthetics, beauty and form! Why do you think it was panned by a section of critics? It quite unwittingly got caught in media hyperbole – the strength, might and penetrative influence of which formed viewers' opinion before they had barely stepped out to see the film. But the two young stars were a breath of fresh air. Ranbir is spontaneous, original and so free of given encumbrances. For my Black director and the conductor of this exquisite symphony, I shall repeat what I wrote to him after seeing the film. He's a genius, will always remain a genius. Ever brilliant. Often misunderstood. You were a part a small part of the other Diwali release Om Shanti Om. What did you think of the film's efforts to satirize the Hindi mainstream cinema of the 1970s, an era that largely belonged to you? Shah Rukh called me to Om Shanti Om's trial a few days before the release. It was great fun. A tongue -in –cheek satire constructed around the film industry, adrenaline- pumping, young, a Magic- Mountain joy- ride. I told Shah Rukh I was apprehensive about the audience catching on to the subtle digs on the film fraternity and its happenings. But post- release, it has worked and washed away all apprehensions. And Deepika Padukone? Deepika was statuesque regal and endearing. Shah Rukh was competent as always. But I keep telling him, he was best in Swades and in portions of Kabhi Alvidaa Na Kehna. The depiction of the 70's was carefully researched and the ambience played to the galleries u The sarcasm and humour very 2007. That's how this generation communicates, it was bound to catch their fancy. As for the 1970s belonging to me, eras never belong to any actor or star. Cinema does. Aamir Khan has made some harsh comments on Black, saying the film is insensitive and manipulative. Aamir is a free individual in a free society. He has the freedom to express his opinions. I cannot understand why he finds the film 'insensitive and manipulative'. All story- telling, at times, tends to touch areas which are 'sensitive'. They could have been done to achieve dramatic impact, emotional expression or effective endings. Remember, we as film makers, dwell almost unabashedly on that unwritten mantra of bringing poetic justice in our stories. That has been the most remarkable quality inhabiting the reason behind the popularity of Indian Cinema. Indeed any popular cinema. It becomes imperative therefore for certain aberrations in justice and human sensitivities to occur, before a resolution can be introduced to end the proceedings. Please continue. You see,we need to finish the film at some point of time, hopefully within 3 hours and to demonstrate at the end of it, that poetic justice was indeed delivered. Else we would be waiting for a lifetime, or several lifetimes for it to occur.It's required therefore, to put in the insensivity to restore sensitivity. We've to put in the violence to show its presence and then to overcome it to show its futility. Would the Ramayan be the same without Ravan? We repeatedly, year after year, burn the effigy of Ravan during Ramlila to stress the victory of good over evil. It would not happen if there was no evil in the world. I believe it was the insensivity of certain portions of the film Black which were necessary in making it such a sensitive film. What about Aamir's opinion that Black was manipulative? 'Manipulative' …hmmm… the clever and sometimes devious means of controlling or influencing people, is also an accepted ingredient in a film. We need the attention of the audience towards the product. We need to sufficiently influence them in order for them to remain attracted to the product till the last. If not for a lifetime, at least for the duration of the film. So in a sense, every film is manipulative. If you know within the first few minutes of a film the villainous nature of a character, why wait till the climax, a few hours away, to straighten him out? But a screenplay is built to envelope a beginning, a middle and an end, in order to have a respectable story. It is an existing form, acknowledged the world over through centuries of exhaustive writing. Aamir seems unhappy with this traditional way of establishing character and narrative mood. If Aamir is unhappy with this, let him demonstrate otherwise. I would be keen and anxious to educate myself on any prospective change that he might introduce to cinema. With due respect, all the films that he features in and that I have had the great pleasure in watching, have all adhered to the very qualities that he dislikes in Black. From using the distinct handicap, or to be politically correct, challenged condition, of a crippled human in his cricket team in Lagaan, to the 'sensitivities' of a blind girl in Fanaa. Has Aamir expressed his misgivings about Black to you? In a private meeting after the release of Black Aamir had told me of his reservations on the film. He had not liked it. He had issues, he said. He told me the film did not work for him because he disagreed with the voice over of Rani as soon as the film started. The argument being, if the girl is deaf, dumb and blind how can she have a voice-over ! I have to date not been able to understand that remark. Maybe you can. He has also called the performances in Black "over-the-top". I'd presume that includes your towering performance. I cannot comment whether my performance was towering or not, but Aamir may be right on the other – maybe the performances did go 'over the top' of his head ! http://www.santabanta.com/cinema.asp?pid=17928
