Hello! Welcome to my blog.........
Now Showing : "AMITABH and I {Part 2}, DESH DROHI, AAHAT, EK BAAP CHHE BETE...
{COMING SOON - Toote Khilone, Hum Nahin Sudhrenge, etc..}" :)
In past we have seen a lot of scenes, songs and even entire film, which is being copied, or rather we can say inspired, either from an international film or album, or from our very own yesteryear hits. Looks like the same case has been witnessed in one of the much-anticipated film of Bollywood!
The gorgeous diva Priyanka Chopra made her debut as an item girl with a sizzling item number in Sanjay Gupta's 'Shootout At Wadala'. Music here is composed by renowned Anu Malik, who made his comeback in a big banner movie after a gap of almost two years. Lastly composed music in a multi-starrer and super-hit film 'Yamla Pagla Deewana' (2011), Anu is also quite known for plagiarism and seems like he is back in that avatar.
While we're on subject, after YPD and before SAW, he did two small-bannered and small-budget films - 'Yeh Jo Mohabbat Hai' (2012) and 'Gali Gali Chor Hai' (2012) - that didn't turn out so well.
Although Anu Malik's latest composition 'Babli Badmaash', featuring Priyanka Chopra, in 'Shootout At Wadala' has become quite a rage and popular all over, but what we at here MoviezAdda brings you something very rare and exclusive, which you might have never seen or witnessed.
Reportedly the tune of 'Babli Badmaash' is being allegedly copied from a yesteryear hit.
Check out the exclusive video by G9 - Divya Solgama, and get yourself aware with the facts and whereabouts.
Every filmmaker would be dying to work with Aamir Khan in their project, but there are some films in which he was supposed to act, but was replaced!
We bring you some exclusive and rare feature - 'Top 5 Films Where You Could Have Seen Aamir Khan'
Aamir Khan - As we mention the name of Mr. Perfectionist, we begin to recollect all those great films he has given us, along with his astounding performances in it. Also one remembers his meticulous nature, and above all, his contribution towards Hindi Cinema. Many of his ardent fans somewhere do have a small complaint with this ace actor of being very selective about his films.
After doing films like 'Yaadon Ki Baarat' & 'Madhosh' as a child actor, he experimented with films like 'Subha Subha' & 'Holi' (For FTII & Doordarshan), till his first big release 'Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak'. Since then, this actor has worked in around 40 films, which in comparison to his contemporaries are pretty less. However, just like every other actor even Aamir Khan was suppose to be a part of many more projects to which he was then replaced by some other actors. Thus, we decided to talk about the top 5 films where we could have seen Aamir Khan in it.

I have divided my memories of the meet in a film formats
{Concept, Making, Promo, Movie, After effects and Final Verdict}
CONCEPT:
4th Feb 2010 was the first time I entered ‘JANAK’ the workplace of Shri Amitabh Bachchan. Sadly Sir was not keeping well and thus the meet was canceled. Again after a week I Re-Visited ‘JANAK’ but thanks to the P.R.O I was unlucky again. I had met loads of Stars and Super Stars from Hindi film industry, but the meet for Megastar was not an easy one. Thus got an opportunity and a chance to create a Video for Sir, which consist of Rare stuffs and was shown to him on the big screen with loads of fans and media around. Sir loved the video and accepted my wishes and bouquets. And the cherry on the cake was him replying it in the blog. I was on top of the world. But still not satisfied, as it was a public meet and not a personal meet.
More than 9 months later, I decided to do something for Sir’s birthday and it was at that time when Kishore Bhatt {U.K} suggested me to do something with my collection of Big B’s All films {Inc Guest App, Regional and more}. So I started the “BIG B – MAHA YAGYA” where I kept watching a film of Sir’s in chronological manner and will share some details {like diary format} about it. For proof sake I use to capture the image of that film’s scene from the VCD/DVD/VHS i had. Initially the comments were less, but people started liking the picture selection of mine, which motivated me to write more about the particular film. Thus I decided to share Trivia’s, Inputs of other celebrities whom I had met, Rare Stuff, Etc. This added the much required spice to the comments and was liked by many.
MAKING:
I was on verge of completing 50 Days and Kishore wanted to celebrate it with my B’day by making me meet BIG B. sadly on that time he was busy with ‘SAVE TIGER’ campaign and thus my meet dint take place. After that my health conditions started going bad and suddenly I got a call from Another sweet FMXT Nidhi. She said “I am coming to Mumbai to meet Sir and we all are going to go”. I asked her “We??” and she said “Yes I asked them about your meet and they said they are not able to contact me, but I have told them you will” and I smiled back saying “who won’t?” I immediately checked my FB and found Kishore’s message about the meet, I confirmed him and he gave me number of Barun. Barun and I connected within seconds of our talk and he said I will be going with Dharmesh and Fly. But still nothing is confirmed.
With pain in Kidney and happiness in heart I was having a different phase of my life. I was given the dates {which were changed and my meet was re-scheduled with Devkishen Ji, Alok & Sameer} of meet and the countdown began. Sadly Nidhi too became unwell and her meet was on verge of cancellation. I too had to get myself admitted to hospital, but now with this opportunity there was no way I was going to do that. I got good support from my family and doctor. He kept me on high dose of medicines and prayed that I don’t get the pain attack again. I too started avoiding long visits and tried to take as much rest as much I could. This worked and pain dint trouble me till the D Day.
PROMO:
On 24th Dec 2010 I got up with loads of Excitement in my heart, but with that my pain too had started a bit. I tried to overlook at it and went ahead with the chores of the day for the event of lifetime. I was making another Video for sir which contained all his Regional films, Guest App Films {inc Naya Bakra, Commander, Charandas and more}, Documentaries and other footage’s {Thanks to the bad health, I was not able to add many more rare interviews, shooting videos, deleted scenes and many more in the video; thus copied them on pen drive}. I got it burned on DVD {As my laptop DVD writer has gone for toss}. After loads of discussion with my wife regarding the gift for sir, we bought a fantastic gift from exclusive collection of DEYANI. It was a designer creation of LORD GANESH in form of JULIUS CESAR {Coming from the world of Architecture and Interior Designer, I knew JANAK has god collection of artifacts and this one being a designer collection will find its place out there}. After a decent haircut and shave, I and my family were ready for the great moment. Last time I had met Sir wearing a Blazer, thus this time I decided to go in total Traditional avatar.
We left home co-coordinating with Alok and Sameer. We left bit early as wanted to buy some more stuffs for sir, but as sir keeps writing about Mumbai’s fantastic traffic at late mid-day too we got stuck in traffic. Thanks to the extra time kept, we decided to go directly to ‘JANAK’ and at 5.30 sharp we were there. I called up Alok {in whose name the meet was registered}, but was not able to connect with him. Thus we entered inside and I met Rakesh who immediately recognized me for my last visit and was very happy that this time I will finally meet the man himself directly.
I proudly showed the painting and whereabouts of JANAK to my family {as had visited there earlier}. I called up Alok and came to know that he was too stuck in traffic jam. At 5 mins Rakesh came and said Sir is here and ready to meet you in next 5 mins. I told him I am waiting for my group people, who will be coming any moment, he offered me to meet alone and then if my group people come at time they can join me. I was in dilemma, but remembered the bitter taste of not meeting sir. So decided to wait for my fellow mates. My family too respected my decision. Within few minutes we were joined by 5-10 more people who were from Amitabh Bachchan Yahoo group. Sameer and Alok too joined us, but I guess it was late as Rakesh had Re-Scheduled out meet with Yahoo group guys.
I connected myself with Yahoo group guys and we all started chatting about unreleased films of Sir. Wow it’s always fun to chat endlessly about Sir and his movies with like minded people. We were moved to bigger area and were waiting for Sir. All were nervous and tensed.
MAIN MOVIE:
And the Man himself in flesh arrived and all out jaws were out {I am sure some flies must had entered in out open mouths at that time, as started having butterflies in stomach}. He was looking so smashing and there was “TEJ” on his face, a divine look I must say. We all started taking his blessings by touching his divine feet. My son was the first to go to him and ask for Autograph on DVD cover of SHOLAY {Rare Version – I already had Ramesh Sippy’s Autograph on it and now got Sir’s next on the list is Dharamendra}. PRATYAY {My Son} decided to write a Dairy from this day {as it’s his best day of life} and thus asked Sir for his autograph on it. Sir was so happy to hear about the Diary and along with his autograph wrote all the best wishes on few pages. After Pratyay’s turn, it was my turn and I gave Sir the Lord Ganesh gift which he loved it and was happy to see Lord in this different form of Art. He thanked me and at that time I Introduced myself “Sir I am Divya Solgama …” and before I could say more he replied back with a smile “ Oh so you are Divya Solgama, tell me one thing aap blog pe hamesha number two ki position pe kaise aate hai?”. I was zapped and asked him immediately like a small boy “Sir Do you read my comments”. He smiled and said “Jee haan main aap ka Maha Yagya padta rehta hu” “and sir pictures” “who bhi dekhta hu and mujhe achte lagte hai woh.., haan jawab nahi de paa raha hu, lekin mein sab pad raha hu..achi tarah kariye aap ka Maha Yagya.” I was so happy and wanted to dance, but then remembered the DVD {at that time the Yahoo Group guys too started getting their Autographs}. I gave the DVD to sir {he handed it to his staff} and told him that I have made this video of all Rare stuffs inc portions of NAYA BAKRA, COMMANDER, CHARANDAS and loads of more. The moment sir heard all these names he turned back to his staff and instructed him to hand over the DVD to him at night as he wants to watch it, and then thanked me for Lord Ganesh and DVD.
Then the group pictures session started and we all moved from the stairs platform to the different background. My wife was doing her duties by taking pictures of me and my son. After the pictures, Sir chatted with Alok and Family, followed by Sameer and were joined by Devkishen Ji too. At that time my wife went to Sir and asked for Autograph on NAMAK HALAL DVD. I told sir that this is her Fav. film and she has watched it for more than 160-170 times, and whenever we watch the film we mute the volume as she keeps repeating the dialogs. Sir looked at her and laughed in typical BIG B Style. I also told him that when I was trying to woo her I use to use some dialogs from Namak Halal to impress her and sir again gave a big laughter. At that time RACHANA {My Wife} told sir – 'Sir you still look so handsome' and you guys won’t believe sir smiled and was blushing. I asked sir for a Hug and he immediately hugged me and Pratyay. I also asked for a Solo picture and he called Rachana ahead to take a perfect picture and it was at that time I had a Picture perfect moment. In between I wanted sir to speak to Nidhi, but the network was bad and thus I and Alok requested sir to speak to Nidhi. I also told sir that it was Kishore’s idea to make the collection of Rare Videos {which included my earlier Video made in month of Feb and new collections} and gift it to sir and later upload it at BIG B Face book Group.
The show was on its last moment as Producer Bunty Walia had come and sir had a meeting with him. When he was to leave we told him to take care of his health and I requested him to sleep early and to take care of his health. In return he again smiled and said “Aap Bhi”. {later i came to know he knew all about my health conditions} And as sir started climbing the stairs I shouted loudly “LONG LIVE SAHENSHAH” and all cheered and clapped. Sir again Smiled {He has a Million Dollar Smile} and waved us the final goodbye.
AFTER EFFECTS :
We all were so happy and thrilled and were on verge of dancing. We all took group pictures and also took pictures with Rakesh and other places. We did not want to leave and wanted to catch more of Sir {which we did when he was moving around and we sang ‘Jitne Baazu Utne Sar’}. When we came out we chatted with yahoo Group guys {I don’t know why Santosh was referring to me as GURU, I loved meeting him and Manoj}. And then for almost 20 minutes I, Devkishan Ji, Sameer and Alok chatted on and on over Sir, Blog and all our FMXT’s. We never felt that we were meeting for first time and gelled so much with each other just like some old college friends meet at Re-Union. Man what an assembly of fans it was…with my 6-7 years old Kid to 75 years old Devkishan ji; fans from four generation were there. They all wished me to get well soon. We finally left on a promise note of planning a Big FMXT Mumbai Meet very soon.
As I sat in my car, my legs were trembling with tiredness and over stressed. But who cared, my whole family was on 7th sky and we were floating along with the clouds out there. I immediately called up Barun & Nidhi. Barun was so happy to know about our meeting, though it was just 20-25 mins but I guess Sir gave quality time to our FMXT’s {At least I got it and I am sure Alok and Sameer too}. Barun too told me to get well soon and be back to Maha Yagya. Nidhi on other side was not feeling well, but was happy that we all met sir. We were so sad and felt sorry for her.
I and my wife saw all the pictures, Autographs and remembered all the moments. I was so happy as Sir complimented me for my Maha Yagya and satisfied all my need and wishes { one was left, as I wanted to show the Video to Sir, but in the big arena Video facility was not available}. We were in my car for almost 45- 50 Min outside JANAK and then suddenly realized we were damn hungry and decided to celebrate our fantastic day.
FINAL VERDICT :
We left the venue thanking Kishore, Nidhi, Barun and Rakesh for today’s memorable day with loads of sweet memories. JANAK had been a bad experience for me in past and finally I got opportunity to be back at same place and meet Sir. My wife asked me “So are you satisfied with today’s meet”, I replied back “Aree Yeh Milna Bhi Koi Milna Hai Laloo – Aaai”…..and we laughed as we knew when it comes to Sir we can never ever get satisfied, and if we will then I guess that would be only after the last day of our life.
Memory of the film: I love Prakash Mehra’s films and for me his combo with Amitabh Bachchan was fantastic. But besides Big B – Prakash Mehra films {Post Zanjeer} there were few films which were good, but rest all were nowhere near the Super Combo films. After completing all Big B – Prakash Mehra combo films I started to watch other films by the maker {Post Zanjeer}, films like Hath Ki Safai, Jwalamukhi, Mohabatt Ke Dushman, etc. I along with many other my age friends had never heard about the film – Desh Drohi. It was some three four years back someone asked me about this film and I was totally zapped. Later I came to know that this was a Suspense Thriller and that too in early 80’s, and thus the hunt for this film started.
Hunt for the film: I asked almost all collector friends of mine about this film, sadly no one had it. Only few claimed that they had seen it when the film was released. After inquiring in India, Pakistan, Germany, UK, USA, Dubai etc I finally gave up for this film. But deep in heart wanted to see this film desperately just for a single reason – Prakash Mehra. Suddenly I came to know that a friend of mine in Mauritius has traced a VHS of this film. I contacted that friend who first refused to part with this film as had paid a heavy price for this film. But later agreed to share it with me, http://i52.tinypic.com/adozrs.jpg as he knew my mad passion of Hindi movie watching. It took some time to get hold of the film and when I got, for firs t time I dint waste any time and directly viewed it.
Impact in today's time: After Mammoth expectation and having watched all films of Prakash Mehra, initially was feeling bit odd while watching the film. The film was a Suspense Thriller {sadly someone had already revealed the Suspense to me earlier} and stuck to its theme from first shot till the end. It hardly went hay way in between, but the flow was bit slow and also the plot later resembled quite similar to S.Ramanathan’s ‘Dial 100’. Also the whole 70’s era style, lifestyle, etc dint blend with the backdrop of British era. Songs were nice but nothing in comparison with Mehra’s other flicks, still Kishore song along with a cabaret number impresses you. I was looking for Prakash Mehra’s unique style in the film and somewhere I found it lost in the film. But in the climax time I got to witness some unique stuff, the whole climax was shot in graveyard. Mehra gave the film bit of Ramsay type touch and created the whole Suspense-Mystery darker in the end. The visuals, Shots, Suspense were nice and still hold you to watch this film.
Mehra tried to capture the Victoria 203 pair in this film, but the pair lacked the chemistry it had in the earlier super hit film. Saira Banu looked bit old and the grace was missing. Navin Nischol did a decent job. Dev Kumar with his Fake Iron Hook hand reminded of all the Bond movies. Ranjeet, Asrani, Yunus Pervez, Madan Puri did their part. Pran in special appearance had some good get ups in the film. Padma Khanna’s cabarets were entertaining.
My Verdict – For all Prakash Mehra and Hindi Suspense Thriller fans , you got to see this film. Kalyanji Anandji’s musical score is also a reason for watching this film. For rest I guess let’s stick to Prakash Mehra - Big B combo only.
Sorry Friends....Due to some Work Load...was not able to follow the routine...
Though had watched loads of movies..but was not able to post them out here...
Memory of the film :
I never knew that such movie existed, till few years back when I had seen the L.P record of this movie at a friend’s place. We both felt that what a loss for Hindi films that such good songs got wasted and never came out.
Hunt for the film :
Well I dint go for hunting for this film, when I came to know it was shelved, but one fine day I saw a Advertisement in a film based Magazine about this film’s release. I was totally zapped and thrilled. But such announcements keep happening and never see the daylight. I was correct, at the release date which was given in the magazine the movie dint release. But at that time also read few articles stating about the film’s release. Thus there was a hope for either theatrical or video release. After some time again I saw the Ad, and waited for that day. At the day of release there was no Ad anywhere, I thought the movie again dint release. But few days later I saw the poster, and then started to inquire about the release. The movie was released in three cinema hall, the best one was far and the nearby were bad cinema halls. It was Thursday and I knew that next day the movie might not stay, thus went to one of those bad cinema halls. The whole cinema hall was deserted and in bad condition, but still I bought the tickets and sat through the movie. With less number of people and no fan and good sound, I saw the whole movie and had a good time.
Impact in today's time : It was strange to watch a 35mm film on big screen after a long time, the story was decent enough to keep you interested. It was about a blind girl {Jaya Bhaduri} who marries a Photographer {Vinod Mehra} and stays with him in a isolated place. On other side a crook {Ramesh Deo} and his colleagues {Amrish Puri} plan a Diamond Necklace robbery with help of a dancer {Bindu}. The dancer plans to double cross them with help of her friends {Dr.Shreeram lagoo}. She hides the necklace in the photographer’s camera. All the villains come to know about it and finds out the location of the photographer. One by one they try to get hold of the camera when photographer is not at home and tries to fool his blind wife. But the blind girl is smart enough to understand, that something wrong is going on. What happens next is quite enjoyable. Though old film, but still it did manage to keep me glued to the big screen. Dharmendra gives a Sp. Appearance in the film as himself. Vinod Mehra had hardly any role. But movie belonged to Jaya Bhaduri who gave a superb performance along with Dr.Shreeram lagoo and Young Arvind Rathod. It was sheer treat to watch Bindu doing a Cabaret dance followed by a Mujra. second half of the movie was a decent thriller as per those times.
My Verdict –
Try watching the film for Jaya Bhaduri, Bindu’s Cabaret , Decent thrilling second half and a great efforts by the producer who released this film after almost 3-4 decades.
Memory of the film: The First memory of this film I have is the superb song by Mohd.Rafi & Sulakshana Pandit “Ghadi Milan Ki Aayi” shot on Mehmood & Moushmi Chatterjee. {http://www.raaga.com/player4/?id=104765&mode=100&rand=0.9394559316942183} Later came to know that Mehmood had made a film based on Himself, which featured him and all his children s {Inc Lucky Ali} .
Hunt for the film: When my collection started I needed this movie desperately for the unique subject, based on life of Mehmood. Also read somewhere that Moushmi played his first wife Madhu’s role and Tracy Mehmood played herself as his second wife. . This was enough for me, but the craze grew more as I heard all other songs like “Walking and I am walking all alone” {http://www.raaga.com/player4/?id=104764&mode=100&rand=0.5644312612855822} and “Daddy Don’t Go” sung by Kishore Kumar and all kids of Mehmood. {http://www.raaga.com/player4/?id=104762&mode=100&rand=0.2433442438483222} I tried all sources, even asked to Anwar Ali {Brother of Mehmood} who assured me that he will try to get hold of a copy, but will take some time as the producer is based in Bangalore. Finally came in contact with a person residing in Germany who had VHS of this movie and took the pain to make a copy for me.
Impact in today's time: Well the movie was interesting and had a Sp.Appearance by Kishore Kumar . Plus Mehmood has done a great job in this film. He has openly show in the movie his flirting nature and his addiction for women s. It takes guts to do such role and over that make a film with such subject. I was quite amazed to see Nutan in such sweet and modern role. All the special appearances by Mehmood's comedian friends were nice. But overall it was Mehmood’s film and was missing a song by Mehmood which comes in last. It was sung by Sulakshana & Vijeyta Pandit along with Mehmood “Buddhe teri Chaal Buddhe” {http://www.raaga.com/player4/?id=104761&mode=100&rand=0.6743467467763969}. The movie is entertaining and does leave impact for Mehmood and Rajesh Roshan fans.
My Verdict – The movie has some good message and Interesting star cast. Pls hear all the songs of this movie, Rajesh Roshan has done a great job and if possible watch this movie for some Real life Experience of the Comedy King Actor “MEHMOOD”.
