cover STORY B OLLYW O O D

er initial films did not do well and she faced many troubles initially however Shruti has opted out to struggle and bounce back without the support of her dad which made her sit on the top today. She has tested her luck in Bollywood, Tollywood and Kollywood but she could not taste the success.

Shruti has signed two more Bollywood projects Rocky Handsome with John Abraham and Yaara with Vidyut Jamwal in the main lead.

Then came an opportunity with Powerstar Pawan Kalyan for the movie Gabbar singh which has been the game changer and the movie gave her the much needed break. Post Gabbar Singh, Shruti has hardly time for anything other than cinema. She is multi talented and is Talking about marriage Shruti said, a great multitasker. Shruti has also “Yes, I wish to marry, but persisted her stint in music, a career in music direction beginning with I don’t know when. The her father’s production Unnaipol person I get married has to Oruvan and her own music band be kind, which is difficult and album.She has scored back to back hits in Telugu and Tamil.

Along with these Shruti has win their awards, but at been shaking leg with all the lead the end of the day, it boils actors in item numbers.

days before you were to shoot Mr. X last year, how difficult was it for you to shoot the film?

BOLLYWOOD

WWW.CINESPRINT.COM | MAY 2015

AYAAN HAS TAUGHT ME THAT IT’S OKAY TO FALL: EMRAAN EMRAAN HASHMI FACED THE TOUGHEST EMOTIONAL TEST OF HIS LIFE LAST YEAR.

EMRAAN HASHMI A four-year-old son Ayaan detected with cancer just three days before him having to start shooting for his upcoming 3D entertainer Mr . X. While his fighter-son battled his cancer with the help of Batman (his father’s voice on his mobile which he believes is a real man, a man who saved him from that dreaded disease), his father stayed away from his son for three-and-ahalf months to complete his professional commitments.His film Raja Natwarlal bombed at the box office, but Emraan continued to do what he was committed to and believed in. Ayaan today is back to being fit and Emraan is looking forward to his upcoming releases. Over an hour-long conversation at his home, he talks to Bombay Times about the dilemma of being a father and a professional, what he learnt from Ayaan and how he has started praying every night now. Given that your son Ayaan was detected with cancer just a few

We were to start shooting Mr .X on January 16 last year and on January 13, the problem happened with Ayaan and the schedule was pushed ahead indefinitely . I realised that I had to juggle between two things, the role as a father and the role as a professional and that too was very important. So, as much as there are people around for you, everyone has their own kitchens to run, so everyone’s life goes on. I had to take a call on whether to be with Ayaan for six months for his treatment or not. My wife Parveen and I decided that we settle her in Toronto, get the chemotherapy going and a month after his operation, I return to work. Ayaan is a fighter and thankfully, his body took the chemo very well without adverse reactions, and I flew back a month later on Valentine’s Day and we started shooting. It had been a tough call for me to say a goodbye to Ayaan and take a flight back. I had to lie to him that I was going to get him gifts, but I knew that I was actually going away to shoot for three-and-ahalf months. I tried in between to go back to Toronto, but couldn’t due to my commitments. I was shooting here, but my mind was constantly there. You understand that nothing really prepares you for something like your son having cancer. The plus point of being in the movies is that you can escape for those couple of hours that you are on a film set. But you can never forget it, as it is always at the back of your mind.You don’t consciously think about it, but you carry it everywhere you go. You kind of learn to live with it, you learn to put it on the back burner, but suddenly , it surfaces again at times when you least expect it to surface. I didn’t sleep for three weeks till I came back. I was on sleeping pills. I used to go for bike rides alone at 3 and 4 am in the morning, as I would not get sleep.And then, I would get only an hour or two of sleep. But thankfully , I was not singing or

dancing in Mr . X, in fact, it was a guy dealing with trauma. So, I was acting out what I was feeling at that point. If you remember, you had come on the first day of shooting to see me at Filmalaya Studio. That first scene was of a guy who almost dies. He is a righteous ATS officer, who is brutally injured by this group of people to the point of death. He almost dies, but then he takes this particular medicine that gives him a new lease of life, but it’s not the life he imagines, his cells stop reflecting life and he is almost invisible. It’s a man who is defeated and is the story of his resurrection. In a sense, your personal story is also one of resurrection at this point in your career? You could say that. I believe that in everyone’s life, where success or trauma can change you, it’s important that you deal with both in a way that is not self-destructive. There was this rise I kind of had two years back when my films were successful, and then there was this lull where four of my back-to-back films did not work at the box office. There is a side of the industry that is always jumping at writing an actor’s obituary , writing you off, which is nothing new to me. I never ever confuse what these people think MAY 2015 | WWW.CINESPRINT.COM

WWW.CINESPRINT.COM | MAY 2015

of my career or my selfworth with what I actually think about myself. I have tremendous confidence that things will bounce back, that I will bounce back with great successful films. The same people did not think that I will last for even two years in this industry .But I have lasted for over a decade.These are the same people who thought that after five back-to-back hits, I had all the answers and I was hit man Hashmi and I was invincible, but they were wrong even then.So, if they didn’t know that then, then what the hell do they know now? You have no choice but to embrace the sadness and the pain when you go through something like this. The trauma becomes a part of you. The dream that you have built for yourself suddenly crumbles and you realise that it is so fragile. And there is nothing you can do to stop it, so you cope with it and fight and as much as people may think they are your bad and weakest times, you are fighting the highest at such times and there lies the resurrection and it instills in that dream more vigour and vitality and something more emerges. Something else has emerged and it will reflect in my performances over the next few months. And I want to tell my detractors in the industry , there are four phases in any celebrity’s life. The first phase when the world says, Òh! He has potential.’ The second phase is, Àh! He has arrived.’ The third phase, Òh! He’s finished.’ And then comes the fourth phase, ` Ah! He is back.’ So, for the myopic morons, who don’t know anything about inner strength, wait for a couple of months. I will be back. Doesn’t failure make you doubt yourself? Where do you get your confidence from? I do get anxious if I have a flop, but I don’t lose sleep over it. I detach from things and that is true for both, success and failure. I don’t let both define me. It’s a journey , I may pop a champagne bottle for success, but I don’t start feeling cat’s whiskers or that I am invincible.Somewhere

down the line, I will give you a bad flop film once in a while. Everyone does that. Even more so in my situation, as I see myself as a risktaker. I have done many films that are unconventional and out-of-thebox niche films.Always remember what Robert De Niro said while getting his lifetime achievement award. He said, `I am accepting this, but this is not the end. A lot more bad films to be made.’ That’s what filmmaking is about. As an actor, you get scripts you like and you take a swing at everything, some

Who was your emotional anchor during his treatment period? Family and friends were an immense support, but I grieve alone. I don’t show my emotions and cover it up with external brava do, but there are times when you feel frail. After Ayaan’s incident, I have started praying at night which I never used to. of them turn out as gems, some of them turn out in the crash can. but every film is made with the best intent. Some are successes, but you cannot be bogged down by that. What should we expect from a Mr. X? If It’s not a superhero film. Superheroes are kind of altruistic as in they are selfless, they are the protectors of humanity and very righteous in what they do. This man is not. He is a right cop, who wants to avenge his own revenge to get his parallel justice to get back to the guys who did it to him. Yes, he is a superhero as he has superhero powers of being invincible. Mr .X promises all of that and a great love story in the middle of it. Amyra Dastur’s character is that of an ATS officer and while

his ideologies have changed overnight, she still upholds the law and so they are opposite sides of the spectrum and they become enemies, but even being a coldblooded murderer, he feels for her. What is your biggest lesson from Ayaan’s incident? Even in my career, I have fallen and come back, but Ayaan has taught me a lot. I have realised that it is okay to fall. It’s okay to fail. He is very resilient and is fit now. Three months after his recovery , he started going to school and wanted to participate in sports day in a race. He was still weak and frail, had lost his thick crop of hair (which has now returned) and while we didn’t want him to run, he is competitive and was adamant. He participated and the race started. He ran three steps and fell and he got up. He again ran five steps and fell even harder this time. Again he got up and ran and he finished the race. I looked at Parveen and could not help feeling moved, as I could not control my tears. He came last and still went to everyone saying I participated. For me, it was more than any gold medal or first prize. He had given all that he had with all the obstacles he had faced and that was a big learning lesson for me.There is nothing special about me when this child after such a traumatic experience, can get up, complete the race and smile. He actually winked at me when he finished.It was too much for me to handle and I left from there. My wife went and got him. In life, it’s all about hanging in there. However shaken your feet, however much you are bruised, you crawl, hop, but get up and take that first step, that’s what I learnt from him. After every hurdle I have faced, it’s become more clear to me that we need to embrace life with all its tears, screams, the anger, the pain, the shame, because they all demand to be felt. And every time I fall, I have promised myself that however shaky my feet, I will get up. It’s only after a disaster that you are resurrected. MAY 2015 | WWW.CINESPRINT.COM

Exclusive Interview

I AM NOT A FOOL TO HURT OTHER RELIGIONS Legendary actor Kamal Haasan, is back with yet another period drama Uttama Villain.

On the eve of the film’s release, we caught up with Kamal sir for a brief interview. Let’s see what he has to say.

Q)Why do you face so many problems to release your films ? Off late, it has become a problem to release films in India. There are many people who are ready to bring your film down for no reason. This is a democratic country, and everybody should have the right to showcase or speak what ever they feel like.

l n a m a a s K aa H

WWW.CINESPRINT.COM | MAY 2015

Q)Your film has received an ‘U’ certificate. But why did some Hindu organizations go against the film? India is a country which has 75% Hindu population, and I would be a fool to make a film which will hurt their sentiments. In fact, everyone should understand that I want people from every

religion to watch my films. Q) Why did you choose Ramesh Aravind as the director ? Even though I have written the script and screenplay, I wanted someone who can depict it well on screen. Ramesh is an old friend and an wonderful actor himself. He was the apt choice and has directed the film superbly. Q)How was the whole experience working with your gurus K Balachander and Vishwananth ? I have already worked with them in many films in the past, and like always I had a wonderful time working with them. Q)The

visuals

are

spectacular and looks like a number of dances are involved in the film. Tell us about that ? Yes ! there are a number of classical dances involved in the film, and the group dancers who have worked for the film are the best in the country. We have rehearsed for so many days and the output is just wonderful ? Q)Is Uttama Villain an art film ? There is nothing called art cinema. Everything what we make is for the public and its commercial. There is a lot of money involved and we want people to watch our film and appreciate us. Q)What care have you taken for the Telugu version ?

I have worked very hard for the Telugu version, and was involved right from the beginning. I should also thank producer C Kalyan for promoting the film so well. Q)Tell us about female leads ?

the

Both Andrea and Pooja have done a wonderful job. They suit their characters well and will be liked by one and all.

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration if I said Kamal Haasan is controversy’s favourite child. The talented actor’s much-awaited film Uttama Villain was suppose to release today however it won’t as there is trouble brewing between the producers and financiers of the film. For now, all the shows of Kamal Haasan starrer have been cancelled across India. Though we don’t know what exactly the issue is but we hear Uttama Villain should be playing across theatres by evening. That’s what we have learnt however only time will tell if Haasan’s film will hit the screens today or not. Directed by Ramesh Aravind, Uttama Villain is a comedy drama peanned by Shruti Haasan’s daddy dearest himself. While we hope things get sorted between the producers and financiers of Uttama Villain soon, this isn’t the first time that Kamal Haasan’s film has faced problems. In 2013, Vishwaroopam was banned by Tamil Nadu government despite getting clearance from Central Board of Film Certification. MAY 2015 | WWW.CINESPRINT.COM

Shahid Kapoor and Mira Rajput are getting married in June, now what we don’t know much is about Mira’s ex boyfriend. Mira who did her English (Hons) at LSR was seriously involved with a guy named Aditya Lal. The duo went around having fun and were involved in a serious relationship for almost two years. Aditya and Mira, however, parted ways after that.

Aamir Khan’s upcoming movie is Dangal for which the actor has gained a lot of weight. However, there is another reason for which the film has been in news. There have been a lot of speculations regarding who will play the role of Aamir Khan’s daughters in Dangal and it seems the decision has finally been made.

A leading daily quotes, “Aditya and Mira were in the same school (Vasant Valley, Delhi). Aditya was a batch elder to Mira, but that didn’t stop them from falling in love with each other. 32

The movie Dangal is based on the life of legendary wrestler Mahavir Phogat who has two daughters, Geeta and Babita Kumari, both happen to be popular names in the world of women wrestling.

VIRAT KOHLI FEELS ANUSHKA SHARMA’S LOVE ‘PURE’! Virat Kohli and Anushka Sharma, the dynamic duo grab all attention where ever they go. Their love story is out in the open and they have already accepted it publicly. While Anushka Sharma was blamed for Virat’s bad performance in the World Cup, Virat doesn’t seem have taken it too well. The Indian team cricketer has recently confessed his views about their relationship to ABP Live. Virat said, “Anushka and I see our relationship very differently from how people at large look at it. Both of us are known individuals, so some could see it as a fantasy or a fairy-tale happening. We don’t look at it that way. Far from it.”

MALAIKA ARORA KHAN DENIES ARBAAZ KHAN’S RULES! Arbaaz Khan in an interview to a leading daily said that his wife Malaika Arora Khan will dance only for their home productions. However, Malaika Khan denies any such rule and says otherwise. Arbaaz Khan said, “She probably wants to decrease doing this (working outside the family). I guess when she did Munni Badnaam Hui (her item song in his 2010 film Dabangg), she thought that since she started out with an item number, Chaiyaa Chaiyaa (Dil Se), this will be something similar. But then, so many of her friends like Sajid (Khan) and Farah (Khan) asked her to do songs for their films,

HRITHIK ROSHAN CONFIRMS HIS HOLLYWOOD DEBUT Hrithik Roshan finally confirms his Hollywood debut, the actor with his Greek God looks had been flooded with Hollywood movie offers from years but he never accepted. Hrithik has to make his debut in Pink Panther 2, the one that starred Aishwarya Rai but as usual he rejected probably looking for something a little bit more substantial. He was quoted saying so much before his Bang Bang release, “Hollywood projects are always there. I keep getting Hollywood scripts every now and then. I read them, but I have not found anything interesting so far.”

LOOKS LIKE SALMAN KHAN’S TWITTER ACCOUNT IS HACKED! Salman Khan is one such star who is very active on Twitter. While, the actor is often seen posting weird and silly tweets, few recent posts raised some doubts on our minds. Salman Khan’s tweets often consists of broken words and vague sentences but now we noticed some selfies of a girl have been posted from his Twitter handle. As many as four pictures of that unknown girl (without any caption) were posted from Salman Khan’s Twitter handle and it looked like Sallu Bhai’s Twitter account was hacked.

Analysis The first half of the film has been racy with power packed action episodes and powerful dialogues which make the audience stick to their seats and watch the film interesting. On the whole the first half of the movie has been gripping and sensible enough. The second half of Gabbar Is Back has dipped at times but the accident sequences have been managed well. The songs have been poorly shot which makes the film fall at times. But the climax of the movie elevates the film which makes it a decent watch.

Final Word Gabbar Is Back is an out and out commercial film with all the masala needed. The gripping screenplay and the dialogues along with some emotional climax make the movie a must watch.

He has done cameos in various Bollywood films post Tanu Weds Manu but none of them could manage his recognition. He lost his consistency after a series of flops over there. His recent movie Vettai has brought him the charm in Kollywood but he tasted the same result with Jodi Breakers in Bollywood. He has recently wrapped up the shoot of Tanu Weds Manu 2 and one more Bollywood flick Saala Khadoos. Madhavan has been working hard to come back with a bang in Bollywood. Hope he makes an impact soon again.

After making a strong impact in Bollywood he has stepped to various film industries all over the world. He is also known for his works in British Indian films, Hollywood ventures along with South Indian movies.

n important figure in Indian film and television since the early 1990s, actor Irrfan Khan brought complexity and depth to lead and supporting roles in Bollywood films like “The Warrior” (2001), “Rog” (2005) and “Billu” (2007) before making the leap to Western entertainment with memorable supporting roles in “A Mighty Heart” (2007), “Slumdog Millionaire” (2008) and the HBO series “In Treatment” (2008-2010). For over a decade, Khan toiled as a character actor on television series and in independent features, essaying men whose intense emotions often contrasted sharply with their reserved outer shells. After his breakthrough as a feudal mercenary who suffers a crisis of conscience in the award-winning “Warrior,” he moved into more significant parts, eventually making the leap to leading man with the noir-influenced “Rog” (2005). His unconventional looks and heartfelt performances, which won critical notices around the globe, made an impact on the leading men of the day, who began to move away from the traditional Bollywood fluff and focus on grittier work to reap the same rewards. Khan’s consistently solid performances also earned the attention of the West, and his turns as flinty men of authority and gravitas in “Heart,” the Oscar-winning “Slumdog,” and “In Treatment” made him one of his native country’s most accomplished cultural exports. He had a strong foundation in Bollywood with his movies like The Warrior, Maqbool, Haasil, Charas: A Joint Effort, Paan Singh Tomar, Knock Out, Gunday, The Lunchbox, and Rog. All the movies performed exceptionally well and he received terrific response for his performance. His list of Hollywood films include The Namesake, New York, I Love You, A Mighty Heart, The Darjeeling Limited, Slumdog Millionaire, The Amazing SpiderMan, and Life of Pi, and he has been seen in the HBO series In Treatment.

Ganga spends his days working with his mother as a servant in the home of the zamindar’s obnoxious family. While Jumna, a promising student, focuses on his schoolwork.

After her employer, Hariram, accuses Govindi of theft, their house is searched, evidence is found, she is arrested, the entire village bails her out, but the shock kills her.

The film was a trendsetter for movies like Deewaar, Trishul, Amar Akbar Anthony which had similar themes of two brothers on the opposite sides of law.

The adult Ganga (Dilip Kumar) is a spirited and hardworking fellow, unafraid to take on the zamindar when necessary, while his brother Jumna (Nasir Khan) is more measured and cautious. Ganga sends Jumna to the city to study, and supports him with funds that he earns driving an oxcart and making deliveries for the zamindar. But things get complicated when Ganga saves a local girl, Dhanno (Vyjayanthimala), from the zamindar’s lecherous assault. The zamindar (Anwar Hussain) gets his revenge by trumping up a robbery charge against Ganga, landing him in prison. Upon his release, Ganga learns that his brother has become destitute, and attacks and robs the zamindar in a rage. Soon Ganga finds himself an outlaw, and, with Dhanno at his side, he joins a gang of bandits camping out in the wilderness. In the meantime, Jumna meets a fatherly police officer (Nazir Hussain) and becomes a police officer himself. It isn’t long before Jumna’s professional wanderings take him back to the village of his birth, where he must square off against his outlaw brother, in a showdown between duty and family.This film has the best performance of Dilip Kumar MAY 2015 | WWW.CINESPRINT.COM

GEMINI

Wait for May 8 and Venus arrival in your sign to see your love life get much better. If you are single, love is around the corner, say yes to any invitation even from your sister or brother.

VIRGO

SAGITTARIUS

Lilith in your sign opens your eyes about what you want in life. You may take some important decisions this month, moving out, changing job or breaking up with your loved one or some old friends who are too different from you now, you may catch up later with them but for now you need some distance. You will act very efficiently, always organized. You control your emotions when it could hurt. People may not understand your need for self-protection, you know very well how to create a shield, and you don’t show your sensitiveness to everyone.

SCORPIO Love is romantic this month and you find many ways to enrich the relationship, having fun and playing sexy games, you get words of love and flowers too. The more you give, the more you get from your partner, especially if he or she is Leo or Pisces or Aries. Work is less crazy this month than previously but still it is pretty fast as a rhythm. But this is a kind of pressure that you can put up with. Some Scorpios are waiting for an important signature and it will happen mid-May. Mind the details. You want to change you attitude about administrative papers.

This month is really busy professionally, expect to see piles of work coming every day on your desk. You may have the feeling that it is endless. Until the 14th it is hard and then it becomes a little lighter. Love is complicated as you don’t know exactly what you want in the relationship. Up and down in your mood, you are going to drive your loved one crazy. Aries or Leo will be ok with those shift but Taurus and Scorpios will not be patient with you. You prepare a trip and it puts you in a better mood after the 28th.

LIBRA

North node in Libra encourages you to sort your priorities in life. And it may not be easy to know what comes first, love or career and you may change your mind all the time. It is complicated to really choose. Take it day by day. You don’t want to give up your career and your independence but you also want to have a private life and maybe a child and time for a quiet life. Venus gives good vibes in your work, women are treating you nicely and if your boss is a woman, she trusts you and wants you to progress. Listen to her advice.

AQUARIUS Everyone knows you as the person most likely to make a difference in other people’s lives, but is that enough? Probably not! Your need to feel socially useful trumps all else on the 4th and 5th, so finding a charity event to attend or a cause to sponsor is your number one priority. You’re determined to throw off all of the limitations that are placed on you on the 10th, 11th, and 12th, and if anyone can succeed despite the incredible odds stacked against them, it’s you. Throw caution to the wind and carry on despite the people who are telling you you can’t do it. You’re a pioneer, an explorer.

CAPRICORN Love is passionate until the 14th, you spend all your evenings together, never having enough of each other. Complicity and tenderness are also important as much as sensuality and passion. Work is gratifying, and you spend extra hours after May 22nd. Your boss will be happy with the quality of work you provide, everything is done on time and well. You are sometimes too perfectionist and it slows you down. Let go of some details. A new coworker is bringing some competition, thanks to Mars in Gemini, you will speed up to win, a healthy competition.

PISCES Listen to your intuition it is crystal clear and it is helping you to make the best choices. Friends or work, you know exactly what you should do and what you should avoid. If you are fed up with a friendship you don’t need to force yourself to keep the relationship. Love is complex because of you, good mood, bad mood, you don’t control it. You take some words very seriously and you react strongly even when he or she is just joking. Relax and put yourself to the same level. You need to sleep more and to take some vitamins to keep a mood that could be more even.
