B-2 : Why Indians Need to Watch Frank Capra’s Movies?

If you're a fan of Old Hollywood, you can realize the significance of Frank Capra (1897-1991) in the American Film Industry. An Italian by origin, he spent 89 years in the United States. His life story was that of a "rags to riches" one - an ideal example of achieving the American Dream. He also served in the United States Army during the Second World War - and made several war documentaries. One can learn about it in the Netflix series Five Came Back - with Guillermo del Toro narrating his story. Capra has influenced many directors of the post-World War II era (from Indian directors like Satyajit Ray & Raj Kapoor to foreign directors like Akira Kurosawa, Steven Spielberg, & Francois Truffaut). But what is it that makes Capra's work evergreen?

Before I start, I wish to talk about my rendezvous with Capra. I first heard about him when he attended the 1972 Oscars to co-present the Best Director Award with Natalie Wood (to William Friedkin for The French Connection). I watched six of Capra's movies between December 2021 and July 2022. They are:

It Happened One Night (1934)

Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936)

You Can't Take It with You (1938)

Mr. Smith s Goes to Washington (1939)

Meet John Doe (1941)

It’s A Wonderful Life (1946)

Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert in It Happened One Night (1934)

Raj Kapoor and Nargis in Chori Chori (1956)

I loved every single picture. While watching It Happened One Night, I found it similar to the 1956 Raj Kapoor-Nargis starrer Chori Chori (not to mention their final collaboration). The screwball comedy got remade in several Indian languages - even the 1991 movie Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin (with Aamir Khan and Pooja Bhatt). The key themes the movie exhibits are the class and socio-economic differences between the two lead characters - along with love, freedom, poverty, unemployment, etcetera.

It would also be interesting to know that It Happened One Night was the first of the three movies to win the "Big Five" awards at the Oscars: Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay. The other two movies are One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (1975) and Silence of The Lambs (1991).

Gary Cooper and Jean Arthur in Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936)

Claude Rains and James Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington (1939)

Mr. Deeds and Mr. Smith grabbed my attention because of the themes discussed in the two (like corruption, misuse of power, beliefs in democracy, patriotism, etcetera). The most significant element is the depiction of the ideal 'American Hero' - which one can see in Gary Cooper and James Stewart, respectively. However, the hero is something that every nation wishes to have - including ours. Mr. Deeds Goes to Town got remade in Bengali (Raja-Saja of 1960 with Uttam Kumar) and Tamil (Nallathambi of 1949 with S. Krishnan). Whereas Mr. Smith Goes to Washington did not have an Indian adaptation.

However, Mr. Smith reminded me of how the English tried to suppress such movements during the freedom struggle. Scenes like 'young boys printing newspapers and citizens launching movements to prove a man's innocence & bureaucrats and politicians trying to stop it' remind us of such events. One must remember that it got released less than three years before Gandhiji launched the Quit India movement of 1942. Even after independence, now and then, we come across news headlines featuring similar happenings.

Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck in Meet John Doe (1941)

Amitabh Bachchan and Shabana Azmi in Main Azaad Hoon (1989)

Meet John Doe is about a "grassroots" political campaign created unwittingly by a newspaper columnist with the involvement of a hired homeless man and pursued by the paper's wealthy owner. The renowned Indian adaptation of the film is the Amitabh Bachchan-Shabana Azmi starrer Main Azaad Hoon (1989). It's one of the rarest movies where Bachchan has not fought the corrupt violently.

Although John Doe survives in the end, Azaad kills himself to stay true to the words of the reporter's fictional character. Azaad could have avoided it - but he did not do it so that the people's anger and urge to fight the corrupt system never cool down. Azaad also leaves a message for his supporters and appeals that Azaad should evolve in them. Capra claimed that he never found a satisfying ending for Meet John Doe. However, Main Azaad Hoon provides a finale that suits the main character's commonality and mythic stature.

(5) Lionel Barrymore, James Stewart, Jean Arthur, and Edward Arnold in You Can’t Take It with You    

And finally, You Can't Take It with You (for which he won his third Directing and second Best Picture Oscar) has a similar theme to It Happened One Night. It's a love story of a successful banker's son and his stenographer. In several Bollywood movies, we see romances between a rich boy and a poor girl (and vice versa) - but they are not like the romances between Capra's characters.  

(6) Donna Reed, Stewart, and Karolyn Grimes in It’s A Wonderful Life

This article would be incomplete without talking about It's a Wonderful Life (his first movie after leaving the Army) - which gives an important lesson about the significance and beauty of human life. It teaches us that our work can impact the people we come across - and those with friends are never lonely.

But that's not all!

We live in his world. It is the "Capra Universe" - where demons of society have surrounded us - and all we need is a "hero" to fight against them. Indeed, there are various Indian movies with similar themes (and distinct from Capra's plots). However, one can the difference only after watching them. Capra has taught us that you can be a rebel or an "angry young man" - without having a gun or a weapon to fight the system and beating up the bad guys. All you must do is to believe in yourself and the moral principles of society. He gave complex social and economic problems a human face - showing unemployment and vast concentrations of economic power.

Elaborating on the themes expressed in Capra's most famous works, two of the most reoccurring subjects are selflessness and a familial sense of community. That's why there is always strong support for the lead characters.

The only difference between Capra's movies and the Indian versions is the inclusion of songs - a standard Indian Cinema formula.

With themes depicted in them and the problems we see around us, Indians must watch some of Capra's movies. There have been directors who have remade them in the Indian context (and there will be in the future, no doubt). However, they won't have the exact authenticity as those of Capra's movies.

★ Salman Khan and Sooraj Barjatya return to celebrate 'Prem' on Diwali 2024; WIP for EID 2024!

Mar 13, 2023

It has been a while since Salman Khan has made a new film announcement. Over the last 2 years, the superstar has been busy working on his Eid 2023 and Diwali 2023 release, Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan and Tiger 3. But that’s not all, SK has been flooded with offers from filmmakers across genres and it seems that he has gotten back to his original roots.

Prem Ki Shaadi will be targeting a Diwali 2024 release in cinema halls across the globe and will proceed to the casting stage soon. “Sooraj Barjatya will get into the process of locking the female lead and key ensemble cast of Prem Ki Shaadi in a couple of months.

Salman Khan and Sooraj Barjatya soft block Diwali 2024

He is talking to all stakeholders, apart from developing a couple of in-house films under his banner, Salman Khan Films. He will take a call on his Eid 2024 offing hopefully by April, as the idea is to start a new film by June 2023,” the source informed.

Throwback: When a section of the industry speculated that Hrithik Roshan’s Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai and Aamir Khan’s Mann were based on Titanic

The much-loved Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai completed 24 years yesterday. It was released in cinemas on January 14, 2000, and was the biggest hit of that year. Debutant Hrithik Roshan became a superstar overnight and continues to rule even today. Though the actress opposite him, Ameesha Patel, was also a newcomer, the film was in the news even before its release. In fact, more than 25 years ago, there were even rumours that the Rakesh Roshan-directorial is based on the Hollywood blockbuster, Titanic (1997)!

This interesting bit of information was mentioned in Komal Nahta’s magazine Film Information dated June 27, 1998. It mentioned that as per rumours in the film industry, not just Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai but also Aamir Khan-Manisha Koirala starrer Mann (1999) was Titanic’s remake. The article debunked the myth and also said that the only similarity between the Hindi films and Titanic was that they were being shot aboard a ship. Since Titanic was also set on a ship, probably some people put two and two together and spread the speculation. A major section of Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai was set on a ship in the first half. The film was the story of Rohit (Hrithik Roshan) and Sonia (Ameesha Patel) who meet in Mumbai and later on a cruise ship. Due to an interesting turn of events, both are stranded on an island where they fall in love. In an interview to Komal Nahta’s Film Information magazine dated December 5, 1998, Rakesh Roshan spoke in detail about why he chose the Star Clipper ship of the USA and the challenges he faced in shooting on board and taking the aerial shots mid-sea. Bollywood Hungama published excerpts of this interview on January 14.

Mann, meanwhile, directed by Indra Kumar was about Dev (Aamir Khan) and Priya (Manisha Koirala). Both meet each other on a cruise and though they were engaged to their respective partners, sparks flew between them. The musical entertainer was shot on Sun Cruises in Singapore.

As for Titanic, it was directed by James Cameron and told the story of Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio), a poor artist and his love affair with Rose (Kate Winslet) aboard an ill-fated ship in 1912. It was based on accounts of the sinking of RMS Titanic though it was also extensively fictionalized. The disaster film was a blockbuster across the world. In India, it stunned one and all as it did exceedingly well despite not being dubbed in Hindi for almost a year. As per the Film Information issue dated August 22, 1998, Titanic was the first ever English film to have completed 25 weeks in more than 10 centres in India. It recorded footfalls of nearly 2.5 crores which is higher than many of the big hits of today. The report stated, “It has also been the first English film to have run to full houses for its first 10 weeks. What is more remarkable is the fact that Titanic achieved such a huge success despite having only 86 prints in circulation, and all in the original (English) version! In fact, the collections of Titanic in India are the fourth highest in the whole of Asia, after Japan, South Korea and Taiwan.”

Why Indians Need to Watch Frank Capra’s Movies? - July 20, 2022

If you're a fan of Old Hollywood, you can realize the significance of Frank Capra (1897-1991) in the American Film Industry. An Italian by origin, he spent 89 years in the United States. His life story was that of a "rags to riches" one - an ideal example of achieving the American Dream. He also served in the United States Army during the Second World War - and made several war documentaries. One can learn about it in the Netflix series Five Came Back - with Guillermo del Toro narrating his story. Capra has influenced many directors of the post-World War II era (from Indian directors like Satyajit Ray & Raj Kapoor to foreign directors like Akira Kurosawa, Steven Spielberg, & Francois Truffaut). But what is it that makes Capra's work evergreen?

Before I start, I wish to talk about my rendezvous with Capra. I first heard about him when he attended the 1972 Oscars to co-present the Best Director Award with Natalie Wood (to William Friedkin for The French Connection). I watched six of Capra's movies between December 2021 and July 2022. They are:

It Happened One Night (1934)

Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936)

You Can't Take It with You (1938)

Mr. Smith s Goes to Washington (1939)

Meet John Doe (1941)

It’s A Wonderful Life (1946)

(1) Clark Gable and Claudette Colbert in It Happened One Night

(2) Raj Kapoor and Nargis in Chori Chori

I loved every single picture. While watching It Happened One Night, I found it similar to the 1956 Raj Kapoor-Nargis starrer Chori Chori (not to mention their final collaboration). The screwball comedy got remade in several Indian languages - even the 1991 movie Dil Hai Ki Manta Nahin (with Aamir Khan and Pooja Bhatt). The key themes the movie exhibits are the class and socio-economic differences between the two lead characters - along with love, freedom, poverty, unemployment, etcetera.

It would also be interesting to know that It Happened One Night was the first of the three movies to win the "Big Five" awards at the Oscars: Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay. The other two movies are One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest (1975) and Silence of The Lambs (1991).

Below are the heroes of Capra:

(1) Gary Cooper in Mr. Deeds Goes to Town

(2) James Stewart in Mr. Smith Goes to Washington

Mr. Deeds and Mr. Smith grabbed my attention because of the themes discussed in the two (like corruption, misuse of power, beliefs in democracy, patriotism, etcetera). The most significant element is the depiction of the ideal 'American Hero' - which one can see in Gary Cooper and James Stewart, respectively. However, the hero is something that every nation wishes to have - including ours. Mr. Deeds Goes to Town got remade in Bengali (Raja-Saja of 1960 with Uttam Kumar) and Tamil (Nallathambi of 1949 with S. Krishnan). Whereas Mr. Smith Goes to Washington did not have an Indian adaptation.

However, Mr. Smith reminded me of how the English tried to suppress such movements during the freedom struggle. Scenes like 'young boys printing newspapers and citizens launching movements to prove a man's innocence & bureaucrats and politicians trying to stop it' remind us of such events. One must remember that it got released less than three years before Gandhiji launched the Quit India movement of 1942. Even after independence, now and then, we come across news headlines featuring similar happenings.

(3) Gary Cooper and Barbara Stanwyck in Meet John Doe

(4) Amitabh Bachchan and Shabana Azmi in Main Azaad Hoon

Meet John Doe is about a "grassroots" political campaign created unwittingly by a newspaper columnist with the involvement of a hired homeless man and pursued by the paper's wealthy owner. The renowned Indian adaptation of the film is the Amitabh Bachchan-Shabana Azmi starrer Main Azaad Hoon (1989). It's one of the rarest movies where Bachchan has not fought the corrupt violently.

Although John Doe survives in the end, Azaad kills himself to stay true to the words of the reporter's fictional character. Azaad could have avoided it - but he did not do it so that the people's anger and urge to fight the corrupt system never cool down. Azaad also leaves a message for his supporters and appeals that Azaad should evolve in them. Capra claimed that he never found a satisfying ending for Meet John Doe. However, Main Azaad Hoon provides a finale that suits the main character's commonality and mythic stature.

(5)  Lionel Barrymore, James Stewart, Jean Arthur, and Edward Arnold in You Can’t Take It with You

And finally, You Can't Take It with You (for which he won his third Directing and second Best Picture Oscar) has a similar theme to It Happened One Night. It's a love story of a successful banker's son and his stenographer. In several Bollywood movies, we see romances between a rich boy and a poor girl (and vice versa) - but they are not like the romances between Capra's characters.

(6) Donna Reed, Stewart, and Karolyn Grimes in It’s A Wonderful Life

This article would be incomplete without talking about It's a Wonderful Life (his first movie after leaving the Army) - which gives an important lesson about the significance and beauty of human life. It teaches us that our work can impact the people we come across - and those with friends are never lonely.

But that's not all!

We live in his world. It is the "Capra Universe" - where demons of society have surrounded us - and all we need is a "hero" to fight against them. Indeed, there are various Indian movies with similar themes (and distinct from Capra's plots). However, one can the difference only after watching them. Capra has taught us that you can be a rebel or an "angry young man" - without having a gun or a weapon to fight the system and beating up the bad guys. All you must do is to believe in yourself and the moral principles of society. He gave complex social and economic problems a human face - showing unemployment and vast concentrations of economic power.

Elaborating on the themes expressed in Capra's most famous works, two of the most reoccurring subjects are selflessness and a familial sense of community. That's why there is always strong support for the lead characters.

The only difference between Capra's movies and the Indian versions is the inclusion of songs - a standard Indian Cinema formula.

With themes depicted in them and the problems we see around us, Indians must watch some of Capra's movies. There have been directors who have remade them in the Indian context (and there will be in the future, no doubt). However, they won't have the exact authenticity as those of Capra's movies.

★ Salman Khan allots ONE FULL DAY to Aamir Khan to shoot for his cameo in Laal Singh Chaddha!

Dec 12, 2020

After ruling the industry for 30 years, the Three Khan’s – Shah Rukh, Salman and Aamir – will be seen together for the first time in Aamir Khan’s Laal Singh Chaddha, which is the official adaptation of Hollywood Classic, Forrest Gump starring Tom Hanks in lead. It was recently revealed that Shah Rukh Khan’s cameo is a character back in the time of Raj set around the DDLJ era, whereas Salman Khan will be seen in his Prem avatar for this social comedy. Bollywood Hungama has exclusively discovered that while Shah Rukh Khan has already shot for his cameo in Delhi for 2 to 3 days, Salman Khan on the other hand has allotted one entire day to Aamir Khan from his choco-blocked schedule.

“Salman couldn't say a no to Aamir and instantly agreed to come on board. He reworked on his shooting calendar and alloted time to Aamir to shoot the cameo as per his convenience, in a manner that it doesn't disturb either of the two's shoot schedule. Salman's track revisits Prem from the Maine Pyaar Kiya days and he has allotted just one day to Aamir to shoot for his cameo in the film. He will be shooting the entire day with Aamir at a studio soon, and finish his part of a 3 to 4 minute cameo playing the much loved character of Prem.

Aamir, who is on a journey of self-discovery, happens to meet him at a film studio,” a source told Bollywood Hungama.

The cameo of Salman will be shot either around December 20 or a month later around January 20, once he finishes shooting for the Aayush Sharma starrer Antim: The Final Truth. “Contrary to the general belief, the three Khan’s won’t be seen together in the same frame. It’s rather, Aamir’s character of Laal Singh Chaddha, meeting them in different phases of his life in a span of 5 to 6 years,” the source further told us.

Laal Singh Chaddha also features Kareena Kapoor as the female lead and the film is all confirmed to release during the Christmas 2021 weekend.

The trailer of this series seems promising and It'll be interesting to see these celebrities together in But not too many folks saw Sameer, where Ayyub's personality infiltrates a suspected Islamic terrorist business.  The film was badly dispersed also, Ayyub pointed out.

"I understood it was a severe political movie not very likely to make the audience go crazy," he remembered.  "Along with also the question of feeling awful does not arise as it did not even get a proper release" Ayyub's most up-to-date job has fared considerably better.   As Manish, a loser who isn't simply confused for a contract killer but also bungles his very first mission, Ayyub shows the complete selection of his acting ability.

Manish is"a jumpy personality whose mindset changes with each scene," Ayyub observed.  "There are colors to his personality chart.  It is not something I'd played , which got me excited." ... Saddled with personality roles for many years, Ayyub has mastered the ability to be noticed.   Ayyub memorably played with a character modelled on Manu Sharma, who had been detained for murdering model Jessica Lal at Delhi in 1999.

Naxalbari 2020 Season 1 Google Drive Free Download

Ayyub returned in Rai's Tanu Weds Manu Returns because the protagonist's most wily admirer. Ayyub had earned the right to be cast as the leading man's crucial sidekick -- an honor usually relied on trained professionals never known to possess the celebrity value required to take a job.  He infused his characters with sufficient detailing to make a line or 2 in testimonials.

It had been Ayyub's thought to take a gamcha round his neck in any way times in Raanjhanaa, as was whispering"Die previously, pandit.  Why are you alive?"  Into the near-dead Kundan (Dhanush) at the last scene.

Though Raanjhanaa was a surprise strike, Ayyub had grown tired of another unexciting and badly composed characters he was being supplied.   When he eventually returned to the collections, it had been for Raees, Rahul Dholakia's crime drama starring Shah Rukh Khan as a bootlegger at Gujarat.

"There was a present in him passed me through.  Seeing him so spent in his job made me decide not to stop and keep functioning, make good decisions, say no to that which I do not like."

Raees has been followed closely by Kabir Khan's war play Tubelight, where Ayyub got to bully the protagonist played by Salman Khan.  Sameer arrived and moved in a jiffy.  2018 saw the launch of this mega-budget duds Thugs of Hindostan and Zero, where Ayyub was again the number-one buddy to Aamir Khan and Shah Rukh Khan respectively.

Ayyub was cast as Nishad, who's much like the real life activists who've inspired Ayyub because his theater days in Delhi at the 2000s.  Produced in Delhi to theater artists, 37-year-old Ayyub graduated from the National School of Drama at 2006 and functioned together with the Leftist theater group Jana Natya Manch, Amongst Others.

Ayyub would really like to play with a few modern-day revolutionaries.  If anyone is thinking about a biopic about the student chief Chandrashekhar Prasad, who had been murdered allegedly on the orders of Bihar strongman Mohammad Shahabuddin in 1997, Ayyub is the guy.

Ayyub will jump at the chance to depict Hashmi, who had been fatally injured by Congress-led goons at 1989.

Ayyub would also like to play with a person"whose politics I do not know, like Sanjay Gandhi".  Ayyub is awaiting a feature version of Dharamvir Bharti's seminal novel Gunahon Ka Devta, about an idealistic student's connection with his upper-caste professor's kid.

Contrary to other celebrities, Ayyub was forthright in expressing his political beliefs, particularly when the Bharatiya Janata Party-led authorities rolled from the Citizenship Amendment Act and National Register of Citizens.

Like his Raanjhanaa co-star Swara Bhasker, Ayyub has not hesitated to speak his thoughts on policies which are famous for targeting and disenfranchising Muslims in India.

Ayyub has been a highly visible presence at protests at Delhi, Mumbai, and Kolkata.  He celebrated December 31, 2019, together with the protesters in Shaheen Bagh in Delhi.
