What happens to the jinxed Shuddhi now? - Page 3

Yeah chocolover I was just thinking when was the last really good Dharma movie? HSKD, 2 states, and HTP were okayy-ish. I feel the quality of the movies have been slowly going downhill in the past few years. Perhaps when his obsession with the SOTY kids started?😆

I don't get what Ayan Mukherji is doing either. One of the better directors and he's not even being utilized properly...ohhh ADHM, that movie should be dropped too😆

Actually KM is not bad..I liked Agneepath..Melodramatic yes but entertaining and the film had great music..After ages, i liked HR in a film 😆 So Brothers probably is a one off cos i was expecting it to do really well too..About Shudhi well, the plot sounds complex and the budget is huge so KM totally needs to up the ante if he even wants the film to break even..Probably tone down on the melodrama cos thats one thing he is being criticized for the most..

Ah poor Gauri..Going from Sri Devi to Katrina/ Alia must be really tough 😆 I wish she collaborated again with Sri Devi but of course with Karan around, every good director eventually ends up collaborating with Alia 😆

I don't remember Agneepath 😳 I'm not sure I finished it...it's not my type of film..maar dhar and all. Yeah, he'll need to tone down the melodrama and edit well. They said Brothers was too boring and slow. Maybe he'll do better in his original film -- uptil now he's only made remakes.

I'm sure KJo has a deal..I'll produce, but you must cast Alia. 😆

I remember liking it back then 😆 And it had gorgeous songs..Brothers probably needed a Chikni Chameli too 😆

Of course..Imtiaz is the only guy who somehow managed to salvage his film despite giving in to Karan's lobbying 😆 Alia is not bad but its Karan's tendency to ruin all the good directors which is incredibly annoying..Adi might be a terrible mentor but YRF has great directors and they don ruin them either 😆

There are no directors in Dharma that seem capable of handling a period reincarnation film like Shuddhi. In fact Dharma seems to have no good directors left. 😕

Ayan is still better than the rest, but he seems more interested in chilling with Ranbir rather than making any film. I read his film won't start till the end of 2016. Ridiculous..I'm surprised KJo's not asking him to see if he can make anything else in the meantime.

I dunno what to think of Abhisehk Varman -- I feel like I was the only person who found 2 States super boring whereas the book was a delight. Shashank Khaitan's HSKD was awful. Shakun is ok. Punit Malhotra is out.

No wonder KJo is collaborating so much with others, or trying to get other reputed directors on board with Dharma.

Why did duggu walk out of shuddhi in the first place?

Brothers did need better songs 😆 I love love love Agneeptah's songs! ❤️ it's been a sad year for music =/

LOL, cuz KJo wasn't actually involved in the making of Imtiaz's film. 😆 YRF definitely has a more talented bunch of directors. I mean they have some ehh ones too, but it gets balanced out with the good ones. Actually, YRF in general works with more talented people.

You mention directors who work for Dharma and I remember coming across this pic a while ago.

Punit Malhotra - Last film GTPM

Rensil D'Silva - Last film Ungli

Siddarth Malhotra - Only film We Are Family

Tarun Mansukhani - 7 years since Dostana. Dostana 2 not happening. His KKHH doggie cartoon film released. What does this guy even do now? 🤔
