I too have the DVD of Chupke Chupke. Hrishi Da in my mind remains the greatest director Bollywood has ever produced. I have lost count of the number of times I cried watching Anand as a teenager. My favorite Bollywood movie till date.​

Yeah he is my fav director as well, no one takes me back to bollywood like he or Yash Chopra

I have seen many movies of Hrishikesh including his worst work Jhoot bole Kaua kaate which too seems a movie better than what gets passed as comedy nowadays.

He surprisingly incorporated many Bengali novels into movies.

Jhooth Bole Kauwa Kaate was actually planned by Hrishi Da back in the 80's, where he wanted to cast Utpal Dutt and Amol Palekar. Somehow it didn't materialise, and he had to make the movie way later casting Amrish Puri and Anil Kapoor. Utpal Dutt was no more back then and Amol Palekar was too old for the role.​

I think part 2 of Golmaal is Naram Garam. It's a movie made on an extremely small budget.

Actor Govinda Hospitalised After Falling Unconscious At Home​

Actor Govinda has been admitted to the CritiCare Hospital in suburban Juhu after he fell unconscious on Tuesday night. The 61-year-old actor fainted late last night at home due to disorientation, his friend and legal advisor Lalit Bindal told NDTV.

The actor was given medicine upon telephonic consultation before being rushed to the hospital.

"He was given medicine after consulting a doctor and was admitted to the hospital in emergency at 1 am," Bindal confirmed it to NDTV.

Bindal did not divulge into more details about Govinda's condition.

"He has undergone several tests and is now awaiting the reports," he added.

Last year, in October, Govinda suffered a bullet injury in his leg after he misfired his licensed revolver. The actor was rushed to Criticare Hospital near his Juhu home with a wound under his knee and admitted to the Intensive Care Unit. The bullet was extracted after an hour-long surgery.

According to his manager, Govinda was keeping his licensed revolver inside a cupboard when he dropped the weapon and it went off.

"I was leaving for a show in Kolkata and it was early morning around 5... woh giri aur chal padi (it fell and misfired)... I was stunned and then I saw a fountain of blood coming out," recalled Govinda after getting discharged from the hospital.

He said that his doctor accompanied him to the hospital.

After long long time Bollywood produce a blockbuster movie- Dhurandhar.

A must watch movies for india expect Anti india elements. :inti :kp
 
I stopped watching Bollywood after meeting Indians on this forum and seeing how much hate there is toward Pakistan. After that, I just can’t bring myself to watch these idiots on the screen.
 
Heard good things about Homebound, acting and Neeraj’s last is one of my fav , will catch this soon.

I wish the movie was named Hazaron Khwaishein Aisi , it gives similar vibe.
 
I have only watched 2 Bollywood movies in my whole life. One was in 1999 (Border) and another was in 2004 (Koi Mil Gaya).

Koi Mil Gaya was an alien movie. It was okay.

I haven't watched any desi movie since 2004. :inti

Watch Anand released in 1970, if you can get over your hate for anything Indian. If you have a heart, it will make you cry, just like it made me and pretty much everyone cry.​

Just googled. It is from 1971. Not 1970. :inti

I saw a 1950's Kolkata movie about 2 decades ago. It was called "Jibon Theke Neya"; Kolkata Bengali movie. It was alright.

I don't mind old movies. Old is gold. :inti

Movies generally do not make me cry. Only movie that made me emotional was "Saving Private Ryan". A WW2 movie with a very emotional ending.

Anyway, I mostly watch Hollywood movies nowadays. I have probably watched around 250 movies in the last 6 years.
 
@Hitman if you read books there is an author whose books to me seem like a Western Hrishikesh Mukherjee flavors.

Fredrikbakman -

You can watch a movie of Tom Hanks :A Man called otto (based on his book).

But i really think Anxious people book is just like Hrishikesh Mukherjee movies
 
Some of my favourite Bollywood movies

Dil se
Satya
Company
Ab Tak Chappan
Kal ho na ho
Dil chahta hai
Andaz apna apna

Will have to think hard to name a good one from last 15 years.
 
I watched 2 Jab we Met and 3 Idiots after that I have'nt watched any and now watch Hollywood movies from time to time although tbh both have declined nowadays

I will not hear a word against Andaaz Apna Apna. After the Hrishikesh Mukherjee movies of the seventies, this and Jaane Bhi Do Yaron were the two greatest movies made in Bollywood!

Satya's solid as well. Tail end of Ramgopal Verma's purple patch.

Dil Chahta Hai and Ab Tak Chappan are fine. Not earthshaking but definitely worth a watch.

LOL! Nope.

I don't watch Bollywood anymore. I only watched 2 in my life (both over 15 years ago).

I'm probably not a good judge of Bollywood films and its nuances because I haven't seen much and mostly just check out the music. I defer to your wisdom. I remember Andaaz Apna Apna was a decent slapstick comedy in mid 90s, particularly one scene that stuck with me was Amir Khan pelting everyone around him with eggs.

A late-night chaos erupted in the Bollywood actor Shilpa Shetty-owned Bastian pub in Bengaluru. The CCTV footage of the scuffle soon went viral on social media.

The viral footage showed that around 1.30 am, two groups of patrons suddenly engaged in a conflict, which involved a heated exchange of words and brief heckling. However, no serious incident of physical altercation has been reported in this case.

The Bastian Pub was founded by Bastian Hospitality, an organisation owned by businessman Ranjit Bindra. Shetty invested in the pub in 2019 and acquired a 50% stake.

The Bollywood actor, along with her businessman husband Raj Kundra, recently approached the Bombay High Court seeking the dismissal of a Rs 60-crore fraud case. The couple is accused of diverting nearly Rs 60 crore from Kundra's Best Deal TV for personal use.

“The petitioner has always been a law-abiding citizen and has no other criminal antecedents, bearing the criminal proceedings which have been initiated recently, one after another, including the present FIR, which is the subject matter of the petition. The petitioner seeks appropriate relief in view of the gross miscarriage of justice and violation of fundamental rights," the plea said.

The couple filed the petition through senior advocate Prashant Pati.

Telugu actor Sivaji ignited massive controversy over his unsolisted advise to actresses on appropriate dressing. With growing backlash over his remark, the actor now issue apology on his social media handle.​


Telugu actor Sivaji has left everyone severely furious with his recent remarks dictating women's clothing. While speaking at the pre-release event of Dhandora on Monday, he openly made misogynistic comments and urged actresses and “women of today” to wear “fully covered” outfits such as sarees. Videos of his unsolicited monologue about female attire began doing the rounds on social media, with netizens and Tollywood celebs intensely berating him. He has now issued a public apology and described his remarks as a result of using “unparliamentary words.

https://twitter.com/x/status/2003445418160787592

(I sincerely apologise for my words during the Dhandoraa pre-release event last night.)


Taking to X, Sivaji shared a video message in which he expressed regret over the remarks he made at an event on Monday. In his post, he wrote, “I sincerely apologise for my words during the Dhandoraa pre-release event last night.” Speaking in Telugu, he said, “I should not have used unparliamentary words. I was not speaking about all women. I only said maybe actresses wouldn't be made to feel uncomfortable if they dressed carefully. The intention wasn't to demean anyone, but because I used such words, I sincerely apologise.”


What did Sivaji say about women's dressing?​

Speaking at the pre-release event of an upcoming movie, the actor appreciated the host of the event for donning a saree. In Telugu, he said, “I request all heroines not to wear revealing outfits. Please wear sarees or dresses that cover the body fully. Beauty lies in complete attire or a saree, not in displaying physical assets.” He used derogatory words for women who dress otherwise and claimed that even though people compliment them to their face, they are insulted behind their backs.

He then added, "A woman is like nature. When nature is beautiful, we respect it. A woman is like my mother, whom I hold close to my heart." He gave examples of yesteryear actresses and Rashmika Mandanna sharing that they are respected because of their work, and they dress modestly. He concluded, "Freedom is precious—don’t lose it. People will respect you based on your conduct. Glamour should have limits; it should not cross a certain line." Sivaji's remarks have left the internet in shock.




Disgusting comment to make.

The speaker criticizes the ruling party in Tamil Nadu, claiming that 'DMK's blood has the DNA of DMK's corruption'. The remarks highlight allegations of non-performance and manipulation over the last four and a half years. The speaker also targets a prominent actor's political entry, accusing him of having an 'anti-Hindu mindset' and neglecting key issues like the Tiruparankundram controversy. The statement further questions the actor's foreign visit while allegedly ignoring victims of a local tragedy, asserting that the new political entrant is merely 'toeing the same line' as the current government.




Seem like corruption is really high in India:

Forensic findings fail to confirm drug use by actor Shine Tom Chacko

www.thenewsminute.com www.thenewsminute.com



The police have suffered a major setback in the high-profile narcotics case involving actor Shine Tom Chacko, after a forensic report failed to establish that he had consumed drugs, significantly weakening the prosecution’s claims in a case that triggered widespread public debate across Kerala.

The forensic findings, which came out on Monday, December 22, morning, could not confirm drug use by the actor, contradicting the police’s earlier assertions that Shine Tom Chacko and a friend had consumed narcotic substances after checking into a hotel room in Kochi.

The case had gained prominence following dramatic visuals and reports of the actor allegedly fleeing the hotel room during a surprise inspection by the District Anti-Narcotic Special Action Force (DANSAF).

The incident, which occurred in April as part of the police’s Operation D-Hunt, had created a political and social stir, with intense media scrutiny and public discussion around drug abuse in the film industry.

Acting on a tip-off that narcotics were being used in the actor’s room, a DANSAF team reached a private hotel in Ernakulam North. Police later claimed that Shine Tom Chacko escaped by jumping through a window from his third-floor room after learning of the team’s arrival.

Following the incident, the actor was questioned for several hours by the police.

However, the latest forensic report now casts serious doubt on the core allegation of drug consumption, dealing a blow to the case narrative built by the investigators.

Shine Tom Chacko had earlier also been linked to the hybrid cannabis case in Alappuzha, but the Excise Department later clarified that he had no direct connection with the seizure.

He was summoned only to clarify financial transactions with Taslima, the woman arrested in that case.

During questioning, Shine stated that he does not use hybrid cannabis and admitted to having previously used methamphetamine.

He also told officials that he had voluntarily sought treatment at a de-addiction centre, even postponing film shoots as part of his rehabilitation.

The actor was subsequently shifted to a de-addiction centre under the Excise Department’s de-addiction programme.

He has consistently denied having any drug-related dealings with Taslima, a claim he reiterated during multiple rounds of questioning.

With the forensic report now failing to support the police’s central allegation, the case is expected to face closer legal scrutiny in the days ahead, even as questions are raised over investigative lapses in a matter that attracted enormous public attention.

Tired of online attacks and slut shaming, Kerala actor who was assaulted says ‘let me live’

www.thenewsminute.com www.thenewsminute.com


“My mistake was this– when an act of violence was committed against me, I immediately filed a complaint with the police and moved forward demanding legal action,” the survivor wrote.

The survivor in the 2017 Kerala actor assault case has shared a pointed message after a video by the second accused resurfaced on social media. The video, which features Martin Antony, who drove her car on the night of the assault, was widely shared, triggering fresh waves of online abuse and derogatory comments against her.

On Friday, December 19, the survivor reflected on her decision to approach the police immediately after the assault, writing: “My mistake was this– when an act of violence was committed against me, I immediately filed a complaint with the police and moved forward demanding legal action.”

She spoke about the relentless scrutiny survivors face when old material is circulated again online.

“I should have accepted everything that happened that day as fate, stayed silent without telling anyone, and later, when that video surfaces, I should have killed myself because I wouldn’t know what to say to those who would ask, ‘Why didn’t you file a police complaint back then?’” she wrote.

Referring to the video allegedly recorded by Martin Antony before he went to jail, the survivor said, “In that video, he might as well have said I am the one who took the nude video.”

Addressing those who spread what she described as perverse statements, she wrote, “To those who make such perverse statements and to those who spread them, I can only say, may neither you nor anyone in your family ever have to face such a situation.”

She ended her post with a request: “Not a victim, not a survivor, just a simple human being!! let me live.”

The Kerala Police registered a case against Martin Antony on December 18 through the Thrissur City Police for revealing the survivor’s identity and defaming her through the video. Police have also said legal action will be initiated against those who shared or circulated the content.

The video, allegedly recorded earlier when Martin Antony was out on bail, resurfaced after the sentencing in the case.

It was on December 8 that the District and Principal Sessions Court in Kochi convicted six accused — Pulsar Suni, Martin Antony, B Manikandan, Vijeesh VP, Salim H alias Vadival Salim, and Pradeep, for abducting and sexually assaulting the actor in February 2017, sentencing them to 20 years of rigorous imprisonment. Malayalam actor Dileep, the eighth accused, on trial for masterminding the assault, was acquitted citing lack of evidence.
