सुबहो आती है, रात जाती है सुबहो आती है, रात जाती है यूँ ही वक़्त चलता ही रहता है रुकता नहीं एक पल में ये आगे निकल जाता है आदमी ठीक से देख पाता नहीं और परदे पे मंज़र बदल जाता है एक बार चले जाते हैं जो दिन-रात, सुबहो-शाम वो फिर नहीं आते, वो फिर नहीं आते ज़िन्दगी के सफ़र में गुज़र जाते हैं जो मकाम The beautiful lyrics of the movie Aap ki Kasam penned by Ananad Bhakshi describes the uncertainty of the stardom in Bollywood. As it is being said that Bollywood only worships the rising sun. No Matter how talented you are, you would be dumped at a time when you are not needed. The Bollywood is a an opportunistic industry, who dumped the pure gold –RD Burman aka Pancham, in 80’s  in a frenzy and Maniac indignation to Disco. In other words Pancham lost to Bappi Lahiri and the new entrants of the music industry. Despite giving the best of the music in 80’s for Sagar and Ijjazat,Pancham was dumped . For Ijjajat ,Gulzar Sahab and Asha Bhosle got the national awards. But that was not enough. He wa...

His name is written in golden words in Times Magazine, Sight & sound and IMDB. In this piece from the Sight  &  Sound archive, Mark Cousins highlights “one of the great, brooding figures in po...

  A man of many facets- Mahesh Bhatt who is an extra ordinary filmmaker known for the outstanding movies like Saransh, Daddy, Naam, Swayam,Ashiqui, Awargi, Dil Hai Ki manta Nahin, Sadak , Sir, and Zakhm. He is one of the most successful directors and producers of modern times.

Incredible talent, polluted by bad character is a poison that dehydrates the world of positive virtues, and craving for it makes you more vulnerable. It's easier to maintain a good character than to recover it when it's gone bad!” I am not casting aspersions on his character. But his life is full of controversies no matte...

Why you should not rely too much on Google search for the opinion or the facts. The fact is ,the information reflecting mostly on Google search, is provided by substandard and low-grade material, which gets crawled as top rankings  on websites. The reason is quite obvious. There are tools like search engine optimization  (SEO). Using Keywords, semantics keyword research and much to get the second-rated information ranked on top of the Google search pages. In other words technology beats and trounces the quality. It is Gadgets, Google and SEO, which is being used, or rather abused by the website owners. My apprehensions are not unfounded and there is a reason to believe so. Let’s discuss.

Women are considered a commodity- a sex object, which is meant to conciliate the lust of perverted men. The use of women in advertisement and in item songs to sell the product is rampant. Filmmakers and advertisers use the sex imagery featuring sexual content in selling a product which has no relationship with the product. There wa...

In a paradigm shift from conventional cinema to modern cinema, following are the actresses who have completely changed the art of film-making . I am not referring to the vulgar and cheap movies where the actress has exposed for the commercial success of the movie with no content but  I am referring to movies and the actresses which have acted as per the audacious script which reflect the social evils and the problems of a young adult. The films give a perspective to hail the real subjects which were considered as a taboo. ·            Lashmi ·           Zeenat Aman ·           Simi Garewal ·           Mandakini ·           Rekha ·           Sharmila Tagore ·           Devi...
