btw these cracked me up..its like my mom talking in english
Bhansali's delusional comedy of empty grandiosity 🤣
he redeemed himself in every bong's eyes I think wid black after shamelessly mocking the bangaliness so to speak from the common expression ishhhh to giving the impression white sari wid red border.. was the only begali signature ...which started a trend of inane bengali fiction adaptations..ala parineeta...I can't forgive praddep sarkar enough..atleast bhansali cld say he cldn't completely relate to the origial what is sarkar's excuse...any how I wont be bitter about this...
As for yer vayjantimala trivia..I can't imagine..besides I think her casting may have demotivated me to watch tht version...coz I aint all tht fond of her n dilip kumar they remind me of 2 drama (I am a lil modern for the mughal e azam sorta expression)..of the 60s.. even for my love of suchitra I rather see an Andhi than devdas.. as for the MJHT version...well like I said I will not take offense coz if bhansali a great film maker could goof up big time..MJHT has a perfect record of goofing up even simple tracks.. and if any CV rep is readin it..please try to think as a viewer.. interlacing editing works sometimes..not in such scenario when the contrast in the 2 contexts is soo vast tht it takes viewers heck lot of orientation..it was irritating how every time the scene picked momentum the frame changed..head desk
@bold ... okay, I HAD to get back to this one ... Aandhi - with Sanjiv Kumar and Suchitra Sen 😍 WHAT a movie ... someone was talking about complete actors ... watch Sanjiv Kumar to know what ACTING is all about ... and while we're on Sanjiv Kumar ... Koshish with Sanjiv Kumar and Jaya Bhaduri ... another great ...
speaking of Koshish ... this is me at my rambling best ... a tv show some years back Koshish ... ek Asha ... if you actually want to see good acting, Varun Badola and Sandhya Mridul Singh ... in a ghisi piti story (which has been copied in Bidaai), and what Varun Badola made of that role was simply wow!!!! As far as tv actors go, he is definitely one of the best today ...
this was all on the topic of casting ... though not in MJHT ... so strictly speaking I'm not off topic 😆 ... but yes, casting in MJHT Devdas ... i dunno, despite all lack of logic, I would much rather watch Samrat Gunjan play Dev Paro than either Ro Ash or even Mayank Gunjan ... however illogical ... MJHT and logic don't really go hand in hand 😆 like Mohit said ... lagta hai Teachers Day ho raha hai, where the teachers are playing the major roles and the bechara students are sidelined 😆
Only CV's ... PLEASE PLEASE ... EDITINGGGGGGG!!!! DON'T intercut two such completely different situations ... throws viewers competely off gear and destroys the momentum of the scenes!!!
