Didn't like it that much (could have been a classic) since I always have high expectations from Dibakar but Kolkata was shown beautifully. DBB, Parineeta, Kahaani, Yuva....all did justice to the beauty/charm of the city. Have to watch Piku to see how good a job they have done.

Piku is a gem and Kolkata is showcased really well in that movie. Also a rare BW film with a stronger 2nd half than the 1st. Gollum 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the people in power are self-entitled a-holes. Edited June 17, 2020 by Audiophile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am mostly talking about 90s and forward. It is more than a handful since I am talking 30 years. However, you are much younger than me and this is before your time. If you have not seen Ardh Satya, Satranj Ke Khilari, Sadgati, Water, etc. Manny_Pacquiao 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can watch with subtitles, but I get annoyed with it so I am not going to recommend those. In the 70s-80s when I was growing up, the masala movies were just as bad, probably even worse, but there was thriving art film industry which made some good movies. That is how Naseeruddin Shah, Smita Patil, Om Puri, Shabana Azmi, Farookh Sheikh, Deepti Naval, etc came into recognition. Now these are superb natural actors. Amitabh Bachchan is a great actor, but has been horribly misused in the masala movies which gave him super stardom. When I was a teenager, I could get enough of his masala movies. Now you could not pay me enough to sit through the torture. Manny_Pacquiao 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prakat Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 Interesting that all the backlash is towards big producers and female Bollywood stars while not a mention is made about Sushant's peer and professional competitors - Other Male Stars. Purely on financial terms, a Producer can afford to be hero-agnostic. What difference does it make to him if Sushant stars or Ranveer stars if both of them can give them RoI? There may be videos about producers and female stars being bitchy about Sushant but they are uninterested parties. The only people who are directly affected by Sushant getting a film among the limited banner releases, are other Male Leads. It affects not only his career but also his cashflow. If in post-covid situation, if Ranveer loses out on a film to Sushant then he will run short on liquid funds immediately until he signs a film. What if Sushant gets the next film too? This is about survival and ego, it doesn't get more "Motive" than that. Kind of like, Ram leela, Befikre etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read Salman Khan got a lot of flak online from Sushant's fans. In general, if what you say is true, it must be because of hero worship that exists in India. An RJ on Red FM mentioned that Tiger Shroff's fans were actually defending his stardom since they felt he stood out as a worthy actor/performer irrespective of his dad. I am inclined to think this must be true for most male actors & their committed fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
