Sridevi: Remembering the Iconic Bollywood Actress

Sridevi, an epitome of grace, talent, and beauty, remains one of the most celebrated and beloved actresses in the history of Indian cinema. Born on August 13, 1963, in Sivakasi, Tamil Nadu, she began her acting career at a young age and soon became a prominent figure in the Indian film industry. Her journey in the film world started as a child artist, and she made her debut in lead roles with the Tamil film "Moondru Mudichu" in 1976. Her natural acting prowess and charismatic screen presence quickly garnered attention, leading to roles in various Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam films. However, it was her foray into Bollywood that catapulted Sridevi to superstardom. Her performance in the 1983 film "Himmatwala" opposite Jeetendra marked her Bollywood debut and initiated her journey towards becoming an iconic figure in Indian cinema. The success of the film established her as a bankable leading lady and paved the way for her subsequent blockbuster films. Sridevi's ability to seamlessly transition between various genres and portray diverse characters set her apart. From romantic dramas like "Chandni" to intense roles in films like "Sadma," she showcased her versatility and left an indelible impact on the audience. Her pairing with leading actors of the time, including Amitabh Bachchan and Anil Kapoor, resulted in several memorable on-screen moments. The '80s and '90s were dominated by Sridevi's performances that left a lasting impression. She charmed audiences with her comic timing in films like "Mr. India" and "ChaalBaaz." Her dance moves, especially in the iconic song "Hawa Hawai," became a cultural phenomenon and added to her immense popularity. Sridevi's contributions to Indian cinema were not limited to Hindi films. She continued to excel in regional cinema, garnering critical acclaim for her roles in Tamil, Telugu, and Malayalam movies. Her dedication to her craft and her ability to connect with audiences across language barriers solidified her status as a pan-Indian star. After a brief hiatus, Sridevi made a triumphant return to the silver screen with the critically acclaimed film "English Vinglish" in 2012. Her portrayal of a middle-aged woman's journey of self-discovery resonated with audiences and critics alike, reaffirming her unparalleled acting prowess. Tragically, Sridevi's life was cut short when she passed away on February 24, 2018, leaving behind a legacy that continues to shine brightly. Her sudden demise was met with shock and grief from fans, fellow actors, and the entire film fraternity. Sridevi's impact on Bollywood and the larger entertainment industry remains unmatched. Her body of work, spanning over four decades, showcases her ability to embody a wide range of characters and emotions. She received numerous awards for her contributions, including several Filmfare Awards, and was posthumously honored with the National Film Award for Best Actress for her role in "Mom." As fans and admirers remember Sridevi, her films, songs, and memorable moments continue to be cherished. Her legacy serves as an inspiration for aspiring actors and artists, reminding us of her extraordinary journey from a child artist to an eternal screen legend. Read the full article

Evolution of a Legend - Part -1

Anand”,”Abhim

This is an analysis of Leading Actors of the Hindi film in pre-Amitabh Bachchan era and what Amitabh Bachchan brought into the industry.

If we start with the arrivals of the first three superstars ( if we do not consider Ashok Kumar) of the Hindi film industry , Dev Anand , Dilip Kumar and Raj Kapoor all of who started in the late 40s , we basically remember what they brought in with them –

Dev Anand brought in Style ,fashion and portrayed role of happy-go-lucky flamboyant loveable characters with the assistance of great music. We cannot forget him in “Kaala Pani”,”Paying Guest”, “Tere Ghar Ke Samne”, “Jab Pyar Kisi Se Hota Hai”, “Taxi driver” etc. Although later he gave a commendable performance in “Guide” , he mainly focused on care-free happy-go-lucky roles.

Raj Kapoor brought in serious topics into movies – although similar kind of movies had already arrived with Ashok Kumar like “Achhyut Kanya”, “Kismat” etc , Raj Kapoor started directing the movies.His movies had a different form of story telling , very elegant romance and drama. All his movies, be it “Shree 420″,”Anari”,”Aag” ,”Aah",” Mera Naam Joker” etc all had strong and different portrayal of romance. And of course songs were so integral part of the romance. However, he was not very disciplined and always reached very late on the sets.

Dilip Kumar , the strongest ACTOR of the three, brought in pathos , under-playing character and sophistication. Most of the roles he enacted were played with subtlety , “therao” and so my underpaying. Although he had music , but it was secondary to his acting ability. He could easily mold himself to a villager in films like “Naya Daur” or “Ganga Januma” with proper accent and gestures, royals in “Kohinoor” and “Mughul-E-Azam” , fun in “Ram-aur-Shyam” and intense dramas like “Devdas”, “Aadmi” etc.

After them, there came the next generation of actors – Rajendra Kumar, Manoj Kumar,Sunil Dutt, Dharmendra , Raj Kumar, Shammi Kapoor, Sashi Kapoor, Jeetendra from mid-fifties to mid-sixties.

Each of these actors played mainly played light hearted romantic roles in their own styles.

Sunil Dutt was intense and angry (the first angry young man) , who can forget “Mother India”, “Mujhe Jeene Do”,”Insaan Jaag Utha”.

Rajendra Kumar was mainly romantic lead and very dramatic. However , no one can deny his performance in “Gora Aur Kala”.

Manoj Kumar , although did couple of romantic movies like “Patthar Ke Sanam” focused mainly on patriotic movies starting from “Saheed”.

Dharmendra , was mainly a mixture of romance and intensity – “Patthar ke Phool” , “Anupama”, “Satyakam” were fabulous.

Raj Kumar was all dialogues and style – “Waqt”, “Heer Ranjha” , “Neel Kamal”.

Shashi Kapoor , started with a very off-the-path role in “Dharmputra” , did some good romantic movies like “Sharmilee”,”Jab Jab Phool Khile”.

Shammi Kapoor and Jeetendra(called Jumping Jack) initiated dancing ( if we can call them) , with great style and some good music. Who can forget “Caravan” , “Farz” and later Himmatwala,Mawali of Jeetendra . Simliarly Shammi Kapoor gave us huge musical blockbuster like “Teesri Manzil”,”Di Deke Dekho”,”Junglee”.”Janwar” etc.

Next evolved Rajesh Khanna , the so called 1st superstar of Hindi Film Industry with fanatic fanfare and 3 years of all blockbuster movies. He came with style , melodrama and some great great music.He tried with some successful subtle performances with “Anand” , “Amar Prem” , “Aavishkaar”, etc , but he started getting monotonous. His discipline was questionable and he never reaches the sets in time.Also, the sudden success got to his head and he misused it.

What we know less about these actors are :-

a> Discipline

b> Professionalism

c> Method acting ( Dilip Kumar stands out)

d> Compete commitment

e> Use of Voice

f> Use of singing ability and lip syncing ( Dev Anand was perfect in lip- syncing)

g> Dance

Amitabh Bachchan came with all of these.

Amitabh Bachchan started in 1969 with “Saat Hindustani” , had only 1 hit movie (thanks to Rajesh Khanna) called Anand and a stray of simultaneous flops till “Zanjeer” (his 13th film) and “Abhimaan” (14th Film) both in 1973 , we see 2 sides of his acting skills – intense, angry no-nonsense in Zanjeer and an intense role in Abhimaan.

However, we should understand how Amitabh Bachchan arrived.

Not going very far into his background, we know that he is the son of legendary Hindi poet Dr Harivash Rai Bachchan and Teji Bachchan who came from noble family.

His upbringing was a mix of intellectualism and fighting attitude.

He worked for a company in Kolkata for a couple of years and came to Mumbai to be in films.

When he started working in films , he did a film called Pyar Ki Kahani in 1971. There was a scene in the movie where he was to kill the veteran actor Shri OmPrakash ji. After the killing shot , Om Prakashji told the unit that he very surprisingly saw in him British way of method acting and said to all that Amitabh would go very far.

Simliarly, Pran ji also recommended him to film writers Salim-Javed (who wrote films like Andaaz,Hathi Mere Sathi,Zanjeer,Deewar,Sholay,Kala Patther,Trishul,Shakti,Arjun,Mr India,Naam etc) the writer duo ,who went to see him in film Bombay-to-Goa and selected him watching an action scene in the movie.

Hrishikesh Mukherjee, the legendary film-maker cast him in Guddi (Jaya’s first film – a women oriented movie) saw his talent , removed him from Guddi and cast him with a very powerful role in Anand. Although , Rajesh Khanna took away all the accolades in the movie, Amitabh was recognised and he received his first filmfare award for best supporting actor role. Hrishikesh Mukherjee and Amitabh worked in classics like “ Anand”,”Abhimaan”,”Mili”,”Namak Haram”,”Chupke Chupke”,”Jurmana”,”Bemisaal”,”Alaap”.

During his struggling days, Amitabh had no money and hence, started working even as junior-artist. Sashi Kapoor in those days was acting in a Merchant-Ivory production film called Shakespearwala. Amitabh , to earn his living participated in a crowd sequence( a funeral scene) ,where Sashi Kapoor saw him , called him out and said that such roles were not for him – he should wait and he will get good roles. Sashi Kapoor even edited the scene where Amitabh was present , so that no one even had a glimpse of him.

So even when Amitabh was giving flops one after the other , his talent got noticed.

★ Why Salman Khan Is Unstoppable!

28 JUNE 2018 GIRIDHAR JHA

Salman Khan is running no race, he’s riding high on pure stardom. Content be damned.

#Law and order under the Modi government has gone for a toss. I put two tickets of Race 3 in my car. Some idiots broke the window and left two more.

A surfeit of tweets—some hilarious, others acerbic—has swamped social media of late, cocking a snook at Salman Khan’s latest outing, Race 3, as ‘the biggest bore of the decade’ and ‘a sure-shot cure for the insomniacs’. This year’s much-vaunted Eid release has been mauled just as savagely by film critics, a few of them trashing it as simply insufferable.

Worse still, the film has made it to the IMDb list of ‘lowest-rated movies’ where it shares the dubious distinction with the likes of Ram Gopal Varma Ki Aag (2007), The Legend of Drona (2008), Tees Maar Khan (2010), Himmatwala (2013), Humshakals (2014) and Kya Kool Hain Hum 3(2016)—all unmitigated disasters of our times.

In fact, some of Salman’s die-hard followers appear to be so disappointed with this movie that they have, for once, asked him not to take them for granted. ““Bhai,, don’t do films like Race 3,” a distraught fan tweeted in anguish after seeing the film. “It is not up to your standard.”

Under the best of circumstances, such reactions ought to have set off the alarm bells for a lesser star, but not the reigning monarch of B-town. Far from it, Bhai, as Salman is affectionately called, is having the last chuckle—he’s laughing out loud all the way to the bank. Remo D’Souza’s directorial venture has already crossed a commercial milestone, having notched up more than Rs 160 crore in India and Rs 250 crore worldwide in just about ten days. Quite an achievement for a film pilloried for its tacky plot, sloppy direction and deadpan acting!

But then, in an industry where stars are made and maimed every Friday, nothing matters more than what a movie ultimately earns at the ticket window. Race 3 may have been dismissed as a veritable affront to the aesthetic sense and sensibility by many a connoisseur of good cinema, but its box-office figures have only underlined the enduring mass appeal of the 52-year-old warhorse, who remains a darling of the dress circle regardless of his receding hairline and protracted court cases.

But why is a star with unexceptional histrionic prowess still so popular with the masses? What are the factors that have sustained him as an alchemist at the cash counters? Ali Abbas Zafar, director of two of Salman’s recent blockbusters, Sultan (2016) and Tiger Zinda Hai (2017), puts it conclusively: “It is very important for a superstar to connect, communicate and maintain a relationship with his audiences through his films. I think the audiences see absolute honesty in the way he leads his personal life, as also in the way he portrays his roles,” Zafar tells Outlook. “It invariably touches a chord with the audiences who flock to the theatres to watch his films over and over again. It’s a factor that simply cannot be defined.”

Zafar, now at the helm of Salman’s next, Bharat, believes every movie has its own journey and destiny as far as commercial success is concerned. “We cannot measure it against the superstardom of an actor. While making a movie, nobody knows whether it will click or not,” he says. “It is something indescribable.”

The young auteur thinks that he is fortunate to have worked with as big a superstar as Salman at the outset of his career. “As a director, it is absolutely essential to highlight the USP of a big star in the best possible way,” he says. “You have to develop the character in sync with the superstardom.”

Zafar avers that the audiences are disappointed only when they find a star’s stardom putting his character in the shade. “But if the character and the stardom complement each other, as they did in Sultan, Tiger Zinda Hai and Bajrangi Bhaijaan (2015), then it creates pure magic,” he states.

Noted scriptwriter Rajat Arora considers Salman’s loyal fan base to be the biggest factor behind his success. “What is remarkable is that people from all age groups, from kids to elderly people, like him. In fact, the release of his movie is a celebration of sorts of the star, idolised by his legions of followers.”

Arora, who scripted the Salman blockbuster Kick (2014), says that is why nine of his movies have done business of more than Rs 100 crore while four others crossed the Rs 200-300-crore mark. “He has really worked hard over the years to maintain his stardom. He simply gives to his audiences what they really like to see.”

Figures, of course, don’t lie. Salman has had an unparalleled run in the past decade or so. Since Dabangg (2010), his 13 consecutive movies have minted more than Rs 100 crore, a figure considered to be the benchmark for a Bollywood blockbuster. Only a couple of them, such as Jai Ho (2014) and Tubelight (2017), are considered flops. But that is because of their high production costs; otherwise they too made it to the elite 100 crore club effortlessly.

Curiously, all this has happened despite Salman’s apparently cavalier attitude towards his career. At a time when his illustrious contemporaries—Aamir Khan and Shahrukh Khan, the other two of the holy tinsel town trinity—are constantly striving for content-driven cinema, commensurate with their expertise and experience, the youngest of the three 1965-born Khans functions within his own world, relying more on his popularity than the script of his movie. More often than not, he takes up a project purely for emotional reasons and shows no qualms in helping out his family members and friends in bolstering their careers. From Sonakshi Sinha in Dabangg to Athiya Shetty and Suraj Pancholi in Hero (2015), many star kids owe their launches to him. As for Race 3, he has gone a step further, as its entire cast, save Anil Kapoor, appears to be piggybacking on his charisma. High on his success, Salman seems to care too little for the criticism that he turns a movie into an extended family enterprise these days.

Critics, however, believe that the Midas touch may not last for long. “He’s not serious about picking good subjects. I thought Salman had turned a new leaf with Bajrangi Bhaijaan and Sultan but Race 3 demolished my hopes,” rues film writer Deepak Dua. “The film has too many non-actors who are in it primarily because of their close ties with him.”

Dua says Salman probably knows his range as an actor and that’s why he restricts himself to his comfort zone of masala entertainers, unlike Shahrukh and Aamir. “Let alone Aamir, even Shahrukh has been trying to do things differently since the days of Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani(2000) and Asoka (2001),” he says. “It’s an altogether different matter that he has not been successful in that.”

Dua fears that Salman, at this juncture of his career, may end up committing the same blunder as yesteryear star Dharmendra. “Dharmendra did many eminently forgettable action flicks like Baghavat (1982) and Hukumat (1987),” he says. “I am afraid Salman is veering towards the same rut, playing a he-man over and over again. Race 3 is yet another pointer to that, ” he adds.

Race 3’s success, Dua points out, is the outcome of a number of factors. “The film benefited from the brand name of the Race franchise, besides Salman’s superstardom,” he says. “Also, it was released on Eid, an occasion when even his really bad movies have done well. But it has to be borne in mind that the success of a bad movie like Race 3 will only spawn films of similar or worse quality.”

The audiences see absolute honesty in the way he leads his real and reel lives,” says Sultan director Ali Abbas Zafar.

Trade pundits, however, see the success of Race 3, in spite of the trenchant criticism, as yet another confirmation of the saleability of Brand Salman. “Jaako raakhe Salman, maar sake naa critics (No critic can harm a Salman project,)” says veteran film trade expert Atul Mohan, twisting a popular adage used by the actor in Race 3.

Mohan, the editor of Complete Cinema, further says that Salman has never been serious about film scripts and yet he has been consistently delivering what the audiences like. “Without the audience’s support, it would not have been possible for Race 3 to earn Rs 160 crore in the first ten days of its release,” he elaborates.

Mohan even goes to the extent of saying that the criticism against and the potshots at Race 3 on social media are part of a ‘sinister campaign’ by a few people who are acting with vested interests. “When somebody becomes popular, certain people try to bring him down,” he says. “In the case of Race 3, social media was used by many as a tool to harm the prospects of Salman’s movie. But people are still flocking to theatres, despite all the trolling.”

That probably sums up the prolonged magic that Salman has cast on the audiences in recent years. Even though most of his movies are bereft of the nous of an Aamir-starrer or the purpose of a Shahrukh project, he remains the ultimate talisman at the box office—somebody who wears his X-factor like armour and lives by what his character says in the film Kick; “Dil mein aata hoon, samajh mein nahin (I come into the heart, not the mind.)”

Akshay Kumar "Didn't Get Too Much Work" Initially. Because, Chunky Panday

Chunky Panday shared this photo. (Image courtesy: chunkypanday)Highlights- Chunky Panday and Akshay graduated from the same dance school - "When I was graduating, Akshay was just joining the school," said Chunky - "So, I used to teach him some dance moves," he addedNew Delhi: Did you know that Chunky Panday and Akshay Kumar graduated from the same dance school and that Chunky Panday taught Akshay acting and dancing back then? Yes, it's true. In an interview with comedian-actor Cyrus Broacha, Chunky Panday shared this story and hilariously added that Akshay Kumar stills jokingly blames him for not getting "too much work" in the entertainment industry initially. Talking to Cyrus Broacha, Chunky Panday shared that he "used to teach" Akshay Kumar "dance moves and some dialogue delivery" when they were in the same dancing school and added that the latter "still laughs" about it. Chunky Panday said: "He (Akshay Kumar) really makes me laugh about it. I graduated from a school called Madhumati's Dancing School. So, when I was graduating... Akshay's much younger than me, four-five years younger than me. Akshay was just joining the school. You know how it is, when you just join, the teachers don't teach you, the senior students teach you.""So, I used to teach him some dance moves, and some dialogue delivery. He still laughs and jokes about it. That's why he says in the initial part of his career he didn't get too much work or awards, because of the acting I taught him. He had to undo what I taught him and become a better actor, and that's why he's become Akshay Kumar," he added.Chunky Panday and Akshay Kumar, who is now one of the top actors in Bollywood, are co-stars of several films like Housefull movie series, De Dana Dan and Tees Maar Khan.

Bollywood’s Sridevi drowned in bathtub after losing consciousness: Dubai police

DUBAI (Reuters) – Indian actress Sridevi died from drowning in her hotel room bathtub, police in Dubai said on Monday following a post-mortem.

Media reports had earlier said the 54-year-old, who had been in Dubai for a family wedding, had died of cardiac arrest on Saturday.

“Following the completion of post-mortem analysis, Dubai Police today stated that the death of Indian actress Sridevi occurred due to drowning in her hotel apartment’s bathtub following loss of consciousness,” Dubai Police said on their Twitter account.

“Dubai Police has transferred the case to Dubai Public Prosecution, which will carry out regular legal procedures followed in such cases,” it added, without elaborating.

In a career spanning five decades, Sridevi acted in 300 films and was awarded the Padma Shri, India’s fourth-highest civilian honor in 2013.

Actress Sridevi Kapoor arrives for the gala presentation of “English Vinglish” at the 37th Toronto International Film Festival, September 14, 2012. REUTERS/Mark Blinch

Born Shree Amma Yanger Ayyapan in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, she started acting at the age of four, appearing in several Tamil-language films in the 1960s and 1970s, and eventually dropping out of school for a career in the movies.

Sridevi made her Bollywood debut in 1979 with “Solva Sawan” (16th spring), but it was in 1983, with Balu Mahendra’s “Sadma” (Shock) that she made her mark in the Hindi film industry.

That year, she also acted with Jeetendra in K. Raghavendra Rao’s blockbuster “Himmatwala” (The Courageous One), cementing her place as one of Bollywood’s top actresses.

Sridevi was known for her on-screen vivacity and energy, playing memorable characters in films such as “Chaalbaaz” (Trickster) and Shekhar Kapur’s “Mr India” in the 80s and 90s. She charmed audiences in female-centric hits at a time when the Indian film industry relied on male actors for box-office success.

Sridevi took a break from films soon after she married producer Boney Kapoor in 1996. She made a successful return to the big screen 15 years later in Gauri Shinde’s “English Vinglish” (2012), playing a housewife taking English-language lessons. Her last screen appearance was in “Mom” (2017), as a mother avenging her daughter’s rape.

Sridevi’s death triggered an outpouring of tributes from Bollywood luminaries and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
