People would laugh at you if you speak 'proper english' in real life and i am talking about hindi speaking people. They will call you a weirdo. lol

Same with Urdu and other languages including even English, in normal life you never speak 'properly'.

Good point.

You`re effectively back to the middle ages/early 1900s if you wanna speak proper English, Hindi, Urdu.

Im pretty sure that none of Tamil, Gujrati or other languages are "proper" anymore since you`ll always find borrowed words from other languages,cultures.

 

[IgnitedMind]

what the hell...how is bollywood Indian cinema...when you have equally good industries in tamil/telugu and malyalam...and a rich bengali cinema and growing punjabi and kannada...being united does not mean not celebrating diversities...remember by saying bollwood is indian cinema...you are ignoring the industry that has given Rahman,Ilayaraja,Kamal Haasan, Mohan lal...sridevi ..maniratnam...Sp balasubrahmanyam...yesudas...even aishwarya...Ram gopal varma...raajev menon...list of legends is endless.So please...

 

[Bhaijaan]

They have all moved over to the Indian film industry from the regional cinema so respect to them.

If im not wrong then many of them worked in bollywood as well as in their regional film industry at the same time?

 

[IgnitedMind]

really...none haven't...all are doing movies in regional cinema...google my friend!!!

 

[Bhaijaan]

You are mixing up regional cinema with national Navroks. How many Punjabi movies does a Tamil watch and vice versa?

But they ALL watch Bollywood. Is it because Bollywood is the best? Or is it because Bollywood is basically our Indian film industry?

 

[Ambi]

Wikipedia.

You surely are funny. No no don't stop, carry on.

Provide some facts to prove me wrong other wise i will keep on

Its because Bollywood is the place were all the stars unites.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Bro, there is no way of doing this in which regional bias comes out on top. Fact of the matter is Hindi cinema/Hindi news/ Hindi being the official language of the government apart from English all point out one thing.


One thing that wikipedia and constitution won't tell because people out there have been fed too much political crap.

 

[Bhaijaan]

Its because Bollywood is the place were all the stars unites.

There are FAR better artists in regional film industries bro. Ask Navroks!

Bollywood probably has the worst talent pool, as far as acting is concerned.

 

[Pakistaniboy]

Quick question,

Are all Sharmas punjabis?

Surely not?

 

[IgnitedMind]

really? google market of Hindi movies in south india..it is not that high...large number of people do not watch dem!!! yes they are popular because more people know hindi than tamil and telugu...because both indistries confine to one state...does not mean you ignore them in " indian cinema"....they are as big as bollywood...with one state they collect close to 100 crores...do you can understand the impact on the audience...unlike bollywood on precentage who watch it in the audience it appeals to is far less..

 

[shan]

If proper hindi is the same as that spoken in Ramayan tv series then its very difficult to understand many things even though u get the plot.

Agreed, its quite easy to understand what they are saying if you know urdu or punjabi. Used to watch Ramayan series when i was kid.

 

[Bhaijaan]

you are ignoring the industry that has given Rahman,Ilayaraja,Kamal Haasan, Mohan lal...sridevi ..maniratnam...Sp balasubrahmanyam...yesudas...even aishwarya...Ram gopal varma...raajev menon...list of legends is endless.

Getting it completely wrong. Have you thought for a moment why all those 'GREAT & 'INDIAN' stars went to Bollywood? Do they look at it as another 'REGIONAL' film industry?

 

[Pakistaniboy]

Navroks,

Are you Malyallam?(sorry if I spelled it wrong)

Obviously not. Are all Khans Mongol? lol

Those were the times man. Watched a lot of thos Ramayan, Mahabharat.

Was reading an article on TOI and there was a comment(Rated 14+) that all Sharmas was Punjabis

And I was like wth, surely not.

If you're smart, you can understand dutch or german as an Englishman.

Point is, we're not talking about you, we're talking about our Friend Ambi who, despite knowing Hindi, needs a dictionary to understand Bollywood movies. Not even some cinema d'auteur with complexe themes and, maybe, long speeches.

except RGV in the 2000s ...none of the above have left..while sridevi was doing lamhe...she was also doing kshanakahanam with RGV/jagadeka veerudu in telugu.,.maniratnam makea tamil or bilinguals...rahman works in many south films...ash has worked in quite a few south movies...some great movies...mohan lal still works in malayalam...spb stopped singing on bollywood pretty much after hum aapke jain kaun... none have left man!!!

Its not much but its a lot. Google market of Tamil cinema in Punjab, you wont even get a result. This very thread is the living proof of whatever we are discussing.

Bollywood is synonymous with Indian cinema across the globe.

nothing wrong in moving to earn more..it is not because they think bollywood is some national cinema so we must try our talent there...it is because of monetary reasons..even bollywood actors try their hand at other industries..sonu nigam, katrina, udit narayan they have worked in other industries too.

 

[endymion248]

Obviously not. Are all Khans Mongol? lol

One thing I find interesting is that some rural Punjabis (mostly the gujjar ones), who have nothing to do with Pashtoos, are named Khan too. But it's pronounced differently without the ''n''. Wonder why it is so...

Are Punjabis Mongol too?

ofcourse...nothing wrong!! shreya goshal is a queen in south too ..she sings as many in south as in hindi... as you said sonu nigam sings many songs in kannada...adnan sami sings many telugu songs...point is many big wigs work on both indistries at the same time..which means south cinema is as important in indian cinema...we cannot just say bollywood is indian cinema...as FC is saying

[Bhaijaan]

There are certain things which are just happily accepted without beating the drum. Certain issues are never addressed as aggressively as a random forumer like me would do, governments would just make little compromises here and there to keep everyone happy in their regions. Unfortunately people are giving in to British divide & rule policy and as a result regional forces are getting stronger.

How much do you know about National awards? There are categories in there for each language from the 8th schedule and even from outside of it. Another classy ploy from the founders of the nation to keep all regions happy.

 

[endymion248]

It would however be hard to see how a Masali can relate to Hunic ascendance (not in a pejorative manner, it just historical interest), it concerns specific casts of people and even those have mixed up with locals, therefor making it impossible to state ''Punjabis are Mongols'', same for Pashtuns.

you and f_c are both partially right. National film awards have one award for all languages...and they also have categories for each language.. so the most prestigious is the one which has films for all languages contending for it.

 

[endymion248]

They had little to do with Indian SC actually, not bragging just saying.

What I read suggests otherwise. If you're a Sikh for example, it's probable that you have more blood from Turco-Mongol tribes than Indo-aryan blood (if we consider most Sikhs to be Jutts) from 2 thousand years ago, which is represented by the local field workers in Punjab we usually call Masalis.

Then again, there is nothing proven about these matters and members who have read more about these issues than me (like Akher probably) must be able to give a more definite answer than me.

I do not think there is a national award for best actor in Telugu...that does not make sense!!! atleast I have not heard of it..

ones that are always mentioned are the one is the one for all languages combined..when they say PRakash raj is a 2 time national award winnger or kamal is a 4 time winner...I think they are talking about all the languages ....no?

yes, there is no such award..but there is a category of best feature film in telugu.. the best actor awards etc are chosen from all over and not from a language based category.

People may not agree...but I think Lata Mangeshkar is over rated...atleast after getting old.

she has spoiled few amazing songs with her Squeaky kind of voice...for example... Lukka Chuppi From Rang De basanti...it is still an amazing song...but I think it would have been more awesome if it was sung by any other...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5qhBM3KJY8

 

[GentleMan]

okay..that makes sense!!!

i think that is sensible to do..because while kamal hasan or mammoty etc will win the best actor award, other not so well developed industries like assamese, bhojpuri etc need some encouragement..for them there is language based categories.. just shows that these awards are TRULY national..awarding the best actor in whole of india, and also encouraging every industry, small or big.

That generalization is just not true. To say Bengalis are generally artistic would be like saying nigz are usually dumb. If its racist in a negative way, its also racist if you put it in a positive way for any community as simply put its all about an individual's inclination towards education, arts etc. More to do with the family.

you seldom agree with me, but i am not like you..and i agree 100%.. she might be good in her youth but since she made her comeback with DDLJ, she has ruined many songs with her squeaky and sugar syrup voice...i can barely tolerate her voice.

Came across this video in related...I have watched this before...Just sharing it with people

Ilaiyaraja creates a whole song on just three notes( Sa ri ga )...and SP Balasubrahmanyam and Shreya Goshal sing it.....SPB/Ilaiyaraja in Tamil and Shreya sings the telugu version...along with whole orchestra in 3 notes.....Great stuff from Legend Ilaiyaraja !!!!

It's not all about the quality of the voice, over time people also form some kind of association with certain voices. Lata ji's voice has a certain impact on people who have been listening to her for so long. She is iconic and whatever she sings becomes special, 50% because the great lady herself graced the song with her legendary voice.



I can't imagine anyone else singing 'Luka Chhupi' and 'Vande Mataram' apart from Lata Mangeshkar. Luka Chhupi in particularly being a motherly song, you can't have a 30 year old sister singing it. Lata ji pours all her affection and mother like feeling into it.

Same with Vande Mataram, that's your Mother India right there singing the patriotic song.

Where was the general bengali stress on art and education when Eden Garden mob used to be the worst in the country?

i dont have to convince you.. but your comparison is wrong.. there is nothing racial about it, i never said it is because of bengali genes.. but it is all cultural. bengali parents put a lot of stress on their children to learn some kind of art.. this is a fact, whether you like or not. chinese and japanese parents send their kids to learn violin and piano from childhood..you will see most violin prodigies from these countries.. back in india, most ias officers are biharis..because their families put a lot of stress for these jobs.. many communities have some chosen field where they like to do well..so stop making a social phenomena as something racist.

regarding eden gardens, who said that art and education can make you peaceloving, and how do you know those who did the violence were taught some art?? you are just trying too hard but come with something better!!

anyway......back to bollywood discussion...the music of race 2 is quite disapointing.......badly missing katrina's ''touch me touch me ,kiss me kiss me''

To have Lata Mangeshkar singing Vande Mataram instead of Shreya Ghoshyal is like Tendulkar hitting the winning run instead of a Yuvraj slog sweep six. Understand the feel behind it.

haha..I said before man...I agree with you in many things !!! and I am glad we are on same page on this...many people feel almost blasphemous whem I criticize Bharata Ratna Lata Mangeshkar...Sure was an incredible singer in youth..no doubt !!! but lately..last decade or so..she has spoilt many songs....

Not disagreeing with the emotion ...I guess you are right !!! but for somebody who is not associated with Lata Ji's songs ...that was my opinion !!! if you put it this way ..you are right !!! she is ofcourse one of our biggest musical legends.....

anyway......back to bollywood discussion...the music of race 2 is quite disapointing.......badly missing katrina's ''touch me touch me ,kiss me kiss me''

Lat Lag gaye is strangely addicting....I like Be Intehan also...

Allah Dullai..the old version was better...

Part on my mind is meh...

Race album was awesome....Pehli Nazar...zara zara..Race sanson ki....Kwab Dekhe...Zara Zara..are all the songs which I still hear !!! not listening Race 2 after a month..except Lat lag gaye...

No hopes on the movie too...strangely not enough promotion either!!!!
