पिछले कुछ दिनों से, कंगना रनौत के हंसल मेहता की फिल्म 'सिमरन' में मुख्य भूमिका करने की चर्चा थी। अब इस फिल्म की शूटिंग जून से एटलांटा, सैन फ्रांसिस्को, सैन जौस और लॉस वेगस में शुरू होने की खबर है । हंसल मेहता रियल लाइफ चरित्रों पर फ़िल्में बनाने के लिए मशहूर हैं। सिमरन भी एक रियल महिला डकैत संदीप कौर पर आधारित है। संदीप कौर सात साल की उम्र में पंजाब से कैलिफ़ोर्निया चली गई थी। १९ साल की उम्र में वह लाईसेंसी नर्स बन गई। उसकी ज़िन्दगी में आपराधिक बदलाव तब आया, जब वह लॉस वेगस गई। लॉस वेगस में उसे जुए की लत लग गई। जुए में वह अपनी कमाई तो हारी ही, भारी क़र्ज़ में भी फंस गई। वह अपनी हारी रकम वापस लेने के लिए कितनी बेताब थी कि वह भारी ब्याज दर पर क़र्ज़ लेकर कैसिनो में १६-१६ घंटे जुआ खेलती थी। इसके बावजूद वह लगातार हारती चली गई। अब हुआ यह कि जिन लोगों से उसने क़र्ज़ लिया था, वह उसके पीछे लग गए। इस पर उसे लॉस वेगस छोड़ना पड़ा। लेकिन, सूदखोरों ने उसका पीछा नहीं छोड़ा। उसने क़र्ज़ से मुक्ति पाने के लिए बैंक डकैती डालने का इरादा किये। वह पूरे ग्लैमरस वेशभूषा में बैंक पहुंचती थी। केशियर को एक पर्ची देती, जिसमे लिखा होता- टिक टॉक, आई हैव अ बॉम्ब । पहले ही प्रयास में उसे २१, २०० डॉलर हाथ लगे। पर यह पर्याप्त नहीं थे। इस प्रकार से उसने चार बैंक लुटे। उसे 'बॉम्बशेल बैंडिट' का खिताब दे दिया गया। लेकिन, आखिरी डकैती ने उसे जेल पहुंचा दिया। ६ जुलाई २०१४ को उसने बैंक ऑफ़ द वेस्ट में डाका डाला। केशियर ने पुलिस को सूचना दे दी। पुलिस ने उसे ६५ मील, तीन राज्यों और दो टाइम जोन की १३० मील प्रति घंटा की भाग दौड़ के बाद पकड़ लिया। उसे ६६ महीने की सज़ा हुई। इसी करैक्टर पर कंगना रनौत की फिल्म है। लेकिन, सिमरन पंजाबी नहीं गुजराती होगी। इस करैक्टर के लिए कंगना गुजराती नाटक देख रही है, गुजराती भाषा और उच्चारण पर काम कर रही है। हंसल मेहता और कंगना अहमदाबाद में कुछ दिन गुजार भी चुके हैं। उन्होंने गुजराती एनआरआई पर ख़ास ध्यान दिया। ज़ाहिर है कि महिला बैंक डकैत की यह कहानी रोचक है। थ्रिल से भरी है। कंगना रनौत जैसी अभिनेत्री के लिए यह करैक्टर इंटरेस्टिंग होना ही। बहरहाल, कंगना रनौत की निखिल अडवाणी के साथ एक एक्शन थ्रिलर फिल्म फिलहाल के लिए बंद कर दी गई है। इस फिल्म में कंगना रनौत एक सीरियल किलर के पीछे लगी महिला पुलिस अधिकारी की भूमिका कर रही थी।

Y-Films’ new series, LADIES ROOM, presents its wildest duo in its wackiest series
Since Bhai-fever is firmly in the air with Sultan, keeping with its batty tradition, Y-Films brings you two Behens to feverishly follow! The wackiest Indian series to premiere on the internet, Ladies Room will have two of the wildest YRF characters, the bffs (Best Friends Forever) Dingo and Khanna, setting the internet on fire with their crazy antics. Two episodes from the series are now out on the Y-Films YouTube channel for free, and a new episode will follow every Tuesday.
WATCH EPISODES 1 & 2 HERE:
Starring two actresses from the YRF talent roster in its
lead, the talented Saba Azad, last seen in Y-Film’s Mujhse Fraaandship Karoge
and more recently ‘The Big Date’ on Love Shots and an electrifying new find,
Shreya Dhanwanthary, the two soul sisters, or, err, dil-se-behens, behave - and
misbehave - in a way you’ve never seen in Bollywood so far. These girls are
mad, bad and completely unapologetic about it!
The series shows two modern young ‘girl bros’ struggling to grow up even as they grow
old, as we follow their mental adventures in six loos. Episode one of the
series has the two girls getting caught by a cop in a train loo with some
unlawful maal while episode two follows the behens as they have a loo disaster
in the apartment where Dingo’s been living illegally.
In the next four episodes of the six episode series, the
show will tackle issues ranging from unwanted pregnancy to unwanted d**k pics,
and boldly go where no man has gone before, living up to its tagline in more
ways than one!
The series is directed by Ashima Chibber, whose
directorial debut was the hilarious critical and commercial hit, Mere Dad Ki
Maruti. The comedy features the writing of Ratnabali Bhattacharjee and Neha
Kaul Mehra and holds the singular feat of never showing men in their entirety.
Ladies Room is the third Y-Films original series after
the hugely success Bang Baaja Baaraat, which was recently nominated at the
Series Mania Festival in France, and Man’s World, which was made in association
with the United Nations’ Global Goals for Sustainable Development. The two
series have garnered over 20 million views on YouTube so far and Ladies Room
promises to follow in their footsteps!
The first two episodes of Ladies Room are OUT NOW on
www.youtube.com/yfilms. Mia By Tanishq is the presenting sponsor of the series.
Says Ashish Patil, Head of Y-Films, Producer, Ladies
Room, “The women’s washroom is a sacred space, where shit happens – literally
& otherwise. A place where girls groom, gossip, laugh, cry, bitch & more.
Women will find it completely relatable and guys will hopefully get the answer
to the question that’s been troubling mankind forever – why do women go to the
loo in groups! We’re thrilled to have a partner like Mia from Tanishq on board
who help us make the girls and the show even cooler than it already is! ;) Just
like Dingo would pick up Khanna if she falls – right after she finishes
laughing at her – we’re glad they’re on board to watch our backs!”

Its raining money in SAB TV’s Chidiyaghar
Babuji (Rajendra Gupta) goes to watch a movie with his
entire family and on returning, they find a lot of money kept in their house,
catching all the family members by surprise and unaware.
Meanwhile, they hear a minister giving a speech about
‘black money’. Suspecting a connection between the two, the family members go
to the minister and let him know about the money.
Meanwhile the family members of Chidiyaghar are very
ecstatic about finding a huge amount of money and find unique ways to spend it.
Balwan and Girbal who are taking a stroll in the market find Koyal (Aditi
Sajwan) and Mayuri (ShafaqNaaz) shopping and donating 1000 rupees to a beggar
and find their behavior suspicious. The two then try to steal the money, but
the minister arrives there in the nick of time and stops them from doing so.
Aditi Sajwan who plays Koyal in SAB TV’s Chidiyaghar
said,"The members of Chidiyaghar find a huge amount of money in their
house when they return from a movie outing. The entire family is now trying to
solve the puzzle as to who has left the money there. Meanwhile, the bahus of
the house who have been complaining about the persistent money issues are
spending the money the way they want to and in the process raising many
eyebrows in the mohalla. The whole moholla gets involved in solving this
mystery .They end up saving the money from getting spoiled in rains, from local
goons and even from larger forces. It is actually a story that tests the
morality and character of all living in chidiyaghar when money in such a
humongous amount is at their disposal. Will they keep the money or will they
send it back to where it belongs remains the question.”
Will Babuji and the members of Chidiyaghar be able to
find the rightful owner of the money?

~Season 2 premieres June 4 at 8 p.m.~
After a successful
run of its first season, India’s most sought-after lawyer KD Pathak is all set
to make a comeback with season 2 of Adaalat starting June 4 at 8 p.m.
In today’s day and age where people have easy access to
information, trial by media and public in general is at an all-time high.
Verdicts are passed too soon and rarely is there an effort to look beyond what
appears. Hence this season, Adaalat intends to reiterate the role of the court
of law. It will emphasize on the thought ‘Raay rakhne ka adhikaar sabko hai par
nyaay karne ka sirf Adaalat ko’ which means while everyone is entitled to
his/her opinion, only the judicial system has the right to pass a verdict and thereby deliver justice.Produced by Contiloe Pictures, Adaalat -2 will feature
gripping stories where the verdict is given basis facts and after thorough
investigation. Always walking on the path of justice, KD Pathak, has an eye for
detail and this season we will see the suave and witty lawyer fearlessly
solving intriguing legal cases and continuing with his mission of ensuring that
justice prevails While the talented Ronit Roy dons the avatar of KD
Pathak, the show will also see popular actors play crucial roles. Tisca Chopra,
Rakshanda Khan, Amit Tandon, Samir Dharmadhikari, Anand Goradia amongst others
will be seen playing public prosecutors fighting against Ronit.
Comments:
Danish Khan, EVP and Business Head, Sony Entertainment
Television
“Adaalat underlines the important role that judiciary
plays in our society. Through KD Pathak, it celebrates an ideal practitioner of
law. KD is unpredictable, sharp and witty but always on the right side of the
law. Ronit Roy as KD will enthrall our viewers. Episodic stories will be reflective
of the times we live in.”
Abhimanyu Singh, CEO Contiloe Pictures:
"In our endeavor to deliver quality content, we are
happy to bring a new season of Adaalat. The show promises thriller episodes
which resonate with our viewers."
Ronit Roy aka KD Pathak:
“I am glad to join hands with Sony Entertainment
Television once again for Adaalat - 2 as the show and my character of KD Pathak
are extremely close to my heart. While the last season was a great success,
Season 2 will see me a whole new avatar as the thought, the treatment and the
story is all new. All in all, it will be an exciting new season and I hope
viewers enjoy the show.”

Kay Kay Menon's next film is based on 1975 emergency
Madhur Bhandarkar recently announced that he is all set
to make his most ambitious project which will be based during the era of 1975
emergency.
Whereas on one hand where Madhur's project is still in
pre-production stage Pehle Aap Motion Pictures is all set to release their
Maiden project San Pachattar, which is based on the era of Emergency.
" Emergency period lasted from June 1975 to March
1977 and is one of the darkest period of Indian History. We learn true lessons
of life only from history and I decided to make a film based on some unknown
and uncovered events during the period of emergency. It's a fun film and is
entertaining and stimulating at the same time. Its not preachy and heavy like
most films have been on the supposed unfortunate event of our recent memories.
The style of editing and background score makes it edgy. It is a very well
balanced film keeping both entertainment and sensibilities in place and will
teleport you instantly to the 70's. It's sensible yet is entertaining and rambles
us into a trip. It will infuse some innovative freshness to our spectrum of
movies and is the way forward. I remember The great Neil Armstrong quoted - a
small step of man on moon and a giant leap for mankind. I would say it's just
ballsy. To do real justice to the role,
who better than Kay Kay Menon.. He is probably the best we have and is a true
artist in all senses. I am delighted and blessed that he agreed to take on the
challenge yet again and this time he has surpassed the apogee of performance ever being achieved in Indian
celluloid. He reinvented it and made the character more dynamic by adding his
style and nuances. We are gonna witness some awesomeness" says the
producer Kabir Lovee. P. S. Kay Kay will devour us!!!
" The film is absolutely a visual and audio
symphony. It is the first true Political Period Thriller of Indian Cinema. I am happy I am a part of this film and
played the most layered and myriad character of my career till date. It took me nearly six
months to get into the skin and psyche of the character and to get the crasis
right. Says Kay Kay Menon.
San' Pachattar is a stepping stone into the genre of
Period Thriller, which has never been explored and carries a huge youth
connect. The film’s plot revolves around a deal of the first mobile phone
(prototype) being brought in India with emergency in the background.

Gear up to see Nargis Fakhri in a never seen before
avatar in Banjo! The actress will be seen wearing a nauvari sari, a typical

imagines her as his wife. Costume designer Divya Gambhir designed Nargis’s
nauvari look and it took her over two hours to get ready. The actress plays the

carry the image of Maharashtra in my cinema and in Banjo too, one shall get to
see many elements of the Maharashtrian culture. I personally believe and feel
that Nargis looks extremely beautiful and elegant in the sari.”

Ravi Jadhav starring Riteish Deshmukh and Nargis Fakhri releases on 23rd

"What does it feel like being the top animation studio in India?" The Global Analyst Asked Rajiv Chilaka
"I must admit I'm pleasantly surprised,"
replied India’s answer to Walt Disney who will visit San Francisco and receive
an Honorary Doctorate from his alma mater, Academy of Art University, on May
23, 2016.
(May 29th, 2016, San Francisco) President of Academy of
Art University, Dr. Elisa Stephens honors alumnus Rajiv Chilaka of Green Gold
Animation TV Pvt. Ltd, based in Hyderabad, India. Chilaka, known as “the
animation poster boy of India,” has been acclaimed for his ground-breaking
contribution to the Indian animation industry. India, with a population of 1.3
billion, includes 50% of that number under the age of 25, resulting in a large
audience, ripe for Chilaka’s adventurous and morally appealing cartoon
characters.
As an honored guest of the Academy, Chilaka is attending
the University’s annual Spring Show to review Animation students' work. He will
also interview candidates interested in joining Green Gold Animation Pvt. Ltd,
the animation studio best known for Chilaka’s famed character, Chhota Bheem.
Launched in 2008, Bheem is the most popular character to
come out of the “Green Gold” stable. Bheem was created because, “There weren’t
many Indian cartoons that catered to the Indian audience below the age of 14
years, so we decided to come up with an ideal character that could teach good
values to children,” says Chilaka. The loveable character Bheem, watched by 40
million children weekly, appeals to young and old alike, with some of the
highest consistent television ratings across India.
Chilaka credits his success to his time at Academy of Art
University. He was inspired by Walt Disney’s success, even visiting the places
in Kansas City where Disney used to live and work. With expertise gained at the
Academy, Chilaka returned to India in 2000 to realize his dream. Today his
studio employs over 400 animators and has created a successful franchise of 25

Riteish gets mucky for Banjo!
Riteish Deshmukh is not letting anything come in the way
of his performance in Banjo, National award-winning film maker Ravi Jadhav's
Bollywood debut. The actor who is ready to give it his best for the film
recently shot in a sewer for the introductory sequence.
“Banjo artists have been a part of Mumbai's landscape for
the last 100 years but they have never gained respect for their art. It's a
tough job as they usually start playing from morning and go on till midnight
without much rest. We wanted to portray how our hero, a Banjo player from the
slums, rises with his art. Most heroes arrive on the screen on bikes, cars or
horses, mine will emerge from a gutter, “says Ravi. Riteish who is currently
busy promoting Houseful 3 with co-stars Akshay Kumar, Jacqueline Fernandez,
Abhishek Bachchan and Lisa Haydon spent days learning the instrument before
hitting the sets. Was he sceptical about getting down and dirty in a sewer? “I
believe in shooting at real locations. It lends authenticity to a film. Banjo
is no different. Riteish was onboard ever since I shared the idea with him, and
had no reservations about shooting it either. The entire sequence, shot in
Worli, was wrapped up in two hours, “adds Ravi who is now busy with the post
production of the film, produced by Eros International.
According to Ravi, precautions were taken before the
final shot. “While we have a doctor on the sets at all times, Riteish was
smeared in oil so the grime would come off easily. He has worked really hard on
the film, “he asserts.
Banjo, produced by Eros International and directed by
Ravi Jadhav starring Riteish Deshmukh and Nargis Fakhri releases on 23rd
September.

चला गया 'नुक्कड़' का 'दुखिया'
नुक्कड़ के दुखिया नहीं रहे। सईद मिर्ज़ा, अज़ीज़ मिर्ज़ा और कुंदन शाह की तिकड़ी के सीरियल नुक्कड़ में दुखिया का किरदार करने वाले अभिनेता सुरेश चटवाल का आज लम्बी बिमारी के बाद निधन हो गया। सुरेश को नुक्कड़ के दुखिया के रूप में घर घर पहचाना जाने लगा था। लेकिन, बड़े परदे पर इस सीरियल से कहीं पहले पहचाने जाने लगे थे। उन्होंने नुक्कड़ से डेढ़ दशक पहले ही हिंदी फिल्म राखी राखी (१९६९) से अभिनय के क्षेत्र में कदम रख दिया था। लेकिन, उन्हें पहचान मिली फिल्म प्यासी शाम में फ़िरोज़ खान के दोस्त के किरदार से। सुरेश चटवाल ने ज़्यादातर ऎसी ही भूमिकाएं की। भूमिकाएं चाहे कितनी छोटी रही हों, उन्होंने दर्शकों का ध्यान खींचा। नुक्कड़ से पहले तक उनके खाते में उपहार, पिया का घर, मेरे भैया, कुंवारा बदन, आइना, प्राण जाये पर वचन न जाये, मिली, तुम्हारे लिए, सितारा, आहिस्ता आहिस्ता, नरम गरम, यह तो कमाल हो गया, सारांश, आदि फ़िल्में दर्ज़ हो गई थी। नुक्कड़ के ख़त्म होने के बाद १९८७ से वह फिर फिल्मों में व्यस्त हो गए। उन्होंने आवाम, आज, शिव शक्ति, थानेदार, इंद्रजीत, लम्बू दादा, फूल और कांटे, जान से प्यारा, धरतीपुत्र, बेताज बादशाह, करण अर्जुन, कोयला, मुन्नाभाई एमएमबीएस, आदि सहित कुल ९६ फिल्मों में विभिन्न भूमिकाएं की। कोई दो साल पहले वह टीवी सीरीज एफआईआर और उससे पहले अदालत में नज़र आये। उनकी आखरी कुछ फ़िल्में अतिथि तुम कब जाओगे, कुछ करिये, द कैंप और नक्षत्र २०१० में रिलीज़ हुई थी। उन्हें श्रद्धांजलि।
कभी राम कभी दशरथ, कभी सिकन्दर कभी पोरस बने पृथ्वीराज
यह पृथ्वीराज जैसे जोड़ के अभिनेता के बस की ही बात हो सकती है। मूक फिल्म बे धारी तलवार, शेर-ए- अरब, प्रिंस विजयकुमार और सिनेमा गर्ल जैसी मूक फिल्मों के अभिनेता पृथ्वीराज ने पहली बोलती फिल्म आलमआरा में कुमारपुर राज्य के मुख्य मंत्री का किरदार किया था। इस की बेटी आलमआरा यानि ज़ुबैदा थी। मास्टर विट्ठल ने राजकुमार की भूमिका की थी। इस कॉस्ट्यम ड्रामा फिल्म से अपने सवाक फिल्म करियर की शुरुआत करने वाले अभिनेता पृथ्वीराज कपूर ने ऐतिहासिक, धार्मिक और सामाजिक किरदार किये। धार्मिक- पौराणिक फिल्मों में वह राम भी बने और दशरथ भी। वह सेलुलाइड के अर्जुन भी थे और कर्ण भी। आलमआरा के बाद अगली फिल्म द्रौपदी (१९३१) में वह अर्जुन बने थे। लेकिन, महारथी कर्ण (१९४४) में वह अर्जुन के प्रतिद्वंद्वी कर्ण बने । वह शायद इकलौते ऐसी अभिनेता थे, जिसने रामायण के रचयिता वाल्मीकि की भूमिका भी की और वाल्मीकि रामायण के राम और राम के पिता दशरथ भी बने। १९३४ की सीता में वह राम की भूमिका में थे। वाल्मीकि (१९४६) में महाकवि वाल्मीकि बने थे। ३१ साल बाद उन्होंने श्री राम भरत मिलाप (१९६५) में दशरथ की भूमिका की थी। १९४१ की फिल्म सिकन्दर में सिकन्दर महान का किरदार करने वाले पृथ्वीराज कपूर १९६५ में सिकन्दर बने दारा सिंह के सामने फिल्म सिकन्दर ए आज़म में पोरस बने खड़े थे। के आसिफ की फिल्म मुग़ल ए आज़म में अकबर की भूमिका करने के बाद पृथ्वीराज कपूर ने फिल्म जहाँ आरा (१९६४) में अकबर के पोते शाहजहां का किरदार किया था। इप्टा के स्थाई सदस्य पृथ्वीराज कपूर ने १९४४ में पृथ्वी थिएटर की स्थापना की और १६ सालों में २६०० शो किये। एक स्थापित और प्रतिष्ठित अभिनेता होने के बावजूद पृथ्वीराज कपूर ने दारा सिंह की बी ग्रेड स्टंट फिल्मों से भी परहेज़ नहीं किया। उन्होंने दारा सिंह के साथ सिकन्दर ए आज़म, लुटेरा, इन्साफ और डाकू मंगल सिंह जैसी फ़िल्में की। दारा सिंह की बतौर डायरेक्टर पहली फिल्म नानक दुखिया सब संसार (१९७०) में वह ज्ञानी की भूमिका में थे। ख्वाजा अहमद अब्बास की एक बर्बाद हो चुके नवाब आसमान की ज़िन्दगी पर फिल्म आसमान महल में नवाब आसमान का किरदार पृथ्वीराज कर रहे थे। इस फिल्म की शूटिंग के दौरान पृथ्वीराज कैंसर से बुरी तरह से प्रभावित थे। उस कैंसर की पीड़ा फिल्म में उनके किरदार के चेहरे पर साफ़ झलकती है। उन्हें संवाद बोलने में काफी तकलीफ होती थी। आसमान महल में नवाब के बेटे सलीम का किरदार करने वाले अभिनेता दिलीप राज के पिता जय राज के साथ पृथ्वीराज कपूर ने १९५७ में रिलीज़ फिल्म परदेसी की थी। वह ऐसे अभिनेता थे, जिसने अपने पिता, बेटों और पोतों के साथ फ़िल्में की। बेटे राजकपूर के निर्देशन में फिल्म आवारा में जहाँ खुद पृथ्वीराज ने अपने बेटे राजकपूर के पिता का रोल किया, वहीँ उनके पिता दीवान बशेश्वरनाथ उनके रील लाइफ पिता भी बने थे। पृथ्वीराज कपूर ने आनंद मठ में गीता बाली के साथ अभिनय किया, जो बाद में उनके बेटे शम्मी कपूर की पत्नी बनी। राजकपूर के साले प्रेम नाथ ने रुस्तम सोहराब फिल्म में रुस्तम यानि पृथ्वीराज के बेटे सोहराब का किरदार किया था। उन्होंने शम्मी कपूर के साथ राजकुमार और जानवर जैसी फ़िल्में की। पोते रणधीर कपूर के निर्देशन में फिल्म कल आज और कल में वह बेटे राजकपूर और पोते रणधीर कपूर के साथ साथ होने वाली बहू बबिता और दूसरे साले नरेंद्र नाथ के साथ भी अभिनय कर रहे थे। २९ मई १९७२ को उनका देहांत हो गया। उनकी मृत्यु के १५ दिनों के अंदर उनकी पत्नी का भी स्वर्गवास हो गया।

th June, 2016एक डॉक्टर की मौत को जीवंत करने वाले पंकज कपूर
सालों की मेहनत और पारिवारिक ज़िन्दगी को दांव पर लगा कर डॉक्टर दीपंकर रॉय लेप्रोसी की वैक्सीन खोज लेते हैं। यह खबर आग की तरह चैनलों के माध्यम से फ़ैल जाती हैं। एक अंजाना सा जूनियर डॉक्टर वर्ल्ड फेम हो जाता है। इसके साथ ही डॉक्टर रॉय को प्रताड़ित करने का सिलसिला शुरू हो जाता है। उससे स्पष्टीकरण पूछा जाता है कि लेप्रोसी वैक्सीन की खबर मीडिया में लीक कैसे हो गई। उसे प्रशासन से लेकर शासन के उच्च स्तर से फटकार मिलती है। साथ के डॉक्टर उसे अपमानित करने की कोशिश करते हैं। उसे दिल का दौरा पड़ता है। डॉक्टर का एक दूरस्थ गाँव में तबादला कर दिया जाता है। ऐसे समय में उसका साथ उसकी पत्नी और दो दोस्त ही देते हैं। तभी खबर आती है कि लेप्रोसी वैक्सीन की खोज अमेरिकी वैज्ञानिकों ने कर ली है। इसके साथ ही एक डॉक्टर की मौत हो जाती है। यह कहानी है बांगला फिल्म डायरेक्टर तपन सिन्हा की १९९० में रिलीज़ फिल्म एक डॉक्टर की मौत की। यह फिल्म रामपद चौधरी की कहानी अभिमन्यु पर रामपद और तपन सिन्हा द्वारा लिखी गई थी। यह फिल्म नौकरशाही की तिकड़मों, सिस्टम द्वारा प्रतिभा को प्रताड़ित करने और मान्यता न देने की है। लेकिन, डॉक्टर की मौत तब भी नहीं होती। फिल्म एक डॉक्टर की मौत मानवता की जीवंतता की कहानी है। फिल्म के ख़त्म होते होते डॉक्टर रॉय को जॉन एंडरसन फाउंडेशन का एक खत मिलता है, जिसमे उसे दूसरे प्रतिष्ठित वैज्ञानिकों के साथ अन्य दूसरी बीमारियों की दवाएं खोजने का न्योता मिलता है। डॉक्टर रॉय अनुभव करते हैं कि उनकी मेहनत बेकार नहीं गई थी। वह इस न्योते को स्वीकार करने का मन बनाते हैं, क्योंकि वह मानव कल्याण के लिए काम करते रहना चाहते हैं। इस फिल्म में डॉक्टर रॉय की बीवी का किरदार शबाना आज़मी ने किया था। साथी डॉक्टर कुंडू का किरदार बांगला फिल्म अभिनेता अनिल चटर्जी कर रहे थे। आज के विश्व प्रसिद्ध बॉलीवुड एक्टर इरफ़ान खान ने डॉक्टर रॉय के दूसरे दोस्त का किरदार किया था। यह इरफ़ान के करियर की तीसरी फिल्म थी। फिल्म में डॉक्टर दीपंकर रॉय का किरदार अभिनेता पंकज कपूर ने किया था। पंकज कपूर का आज जन्मदिन (२९ मई १९६४) है।
अंधे और लंगड़े लड़कों की 'दोस्ती'
६ नवंबर १९६४ को राजश्री प्रोडक्शन्स से एक फिल्म दोस्ती रिलीज़ हुई थी। सत्येन बोस निर्देशित यह फिल्म एक बांगला फिल्म 'ललू-भुलु' का हिंदी रीमेक थी। इस फिल्म से दो नए चहरे सुधीर कुमार और सुशील कुमार का हिंदी दर्शकों से परिचय हुआ था। सुधीर कुमार ने अंधे लडके मोहन की भूमिका की थी, जो सडकों पर गीत गा कर अपने लंगड़े दोस्त रामू को पढ़ाना चाहता है। रामू की भूमिका सुशील कुमार ने की थी। दोस्ती अभिनेता संजय खान की डेब्यू फिल्म थी। फिल्म में मोहन की नर्स बहन और संजय खान की प्रेमिका की भूमिका करने वाली मराठी एक्ट्रेस उमा राव की भी यह पहली फिल्म थी। बेबी फरीदा ने एक बीमार बच्ची और रामू और मोहन की दोस्त का किरदार किया था। बेबी फरीदा अब बड़ी हो कर दादी बन गई हैं। उन्हें टीवी और फिल्मों में आज भी देखा जा सकता है। लेकिन, सबसे ज़्यादा दिलचस्प है दोनों अंधे और लंगड़े लड़कों का किरदार करने वाले लड़कों के बारे में। जब फिल्म रिलीज़ हुई और बड़ी हिट साबित हुई तो उस समय यह अफवाह उडी की इन दोनों का किसी बड़े एक्टर ने खुन्नस में मर्डर करवा दिया, क्योंकि यह उससे ज़्यादा लोकप्रिय हो गए थे। यह भी अफवाह थी कि यह सड़क दुर्घटना में मारे गए। लेकिन, यह सब अफवाहे थी। अलबत्ता इन दोनों का करियर लंबा नहीं चल सका। सुशील कुमार को फिल्मों से मोह-भंग हो गया था। क्योंकि, फिल्म निर्माता इन दोनों का स्क्रीन टेस्ट लेते। पर फाइनल कभी नहीं कर पाते। राजश्री के ताराचंद बड़जात्या इन दोनों को लेकर अगली फिल्म बनाना चाहते थे। इन माहवार तनख्वाह भी दी जा रही थी। लेकिन, तभी सुधीर कुमार को एवीएम की फिल्म लाडला का ऑफर मिला। सुधीर ने इस फिल्म को राजश्री प्रोडक्शन के साथ कॉन्ट्रैक्ट के बावजूद स्वीकार कर लिया। इसके लिए सुधीर को हर्जाना भी देना पड़ा। इससे नाराज़ हो कर ताराचंद बड़जात्या ने वह प्रोजेक्ट ही ख़त्म कर दिया। हालाँकि, सुधीर कुमार ने बाद में संत ज्ञानेश्वर, लाडला, जीने की राह, आदि फ़िल्में की। लेकिन, तब तक सुशील कुमार का फिल्मों से मोह भंग हो गया। उन्होंने एयरलाइन्स ज्वाइन कर ली। दुखद घटना हुई सुधीर कुमार के साथ। हुआ यह कि १९९३ के बॉम्बे बम ब्लास्ट के बाद बॉम्बे में कर्फ्यू लगा हुआ था। सुधीर कुमार मुर्गा खा रहे थे कि एक हड्डी उनके गले में फंस गई। उनका गला बुरी तरह से घायल हो गया। कर्फ्यू लगा होने के कारण उन्हें इलाज भी नहीं मिल पाया। कुछ दिनों बाद उनकी मृत्यु हो गई। सुशील कुमार ज़रूर स्वस्थ एवं सानन्द अपनी रिटायरमेंट की ज़िंदगी जी रहे हैं।

नर्गिस को मदर इंडिया बनाने वाले महबूब खान
महबूब खान के बैनर महबूब प्रोडक्शन्स का हंसिया और हथौड़ा इस बात का गवाह था कि वह सोशलिस्ट विचारधारा के थे। ऐसा स्वाभाविक भी था। गुजरात के गाँव बिल्मोरा के रमज़ान खान ने बॉलीवुड का महबूब खान बनने के सफर में फिल्म निर्माता और घोडा सप्लायर के अस्तबल में घोड़ों की नाल ठीक करने का काम करने से लेकर फिल्म अलीबाबा चालीस चोर के चालीस चोरो में से एक चोर की भूमिका की। उनकी फिल्मों में गरीबी, संघर्ष, शोषण, ज़मींदार, आदि ताकतवर और कमज़ोर चरित्रों का पॉजिटिव चित्रण मिलता है। मेरी जान, दिलावर और ज़रीना जैसी फिल्मों में अभिनय के बाद महबूब खान ने फिल्म अल हिलाल उर्फ़ जजमेंट ऑफ़ अल्लाह (१९३५) से बतौर निर्देशक कदम रखा। महबूब खान ,नमाज़ी आदमी थे। लेकिन, उनकी फिल्मों में कभी भी धार्मिक तनाव या थोथे उपदेश नज़र नहीं आये। उनकी फ़िल्में या तो ठेठ सामाजिक होती थी या फिर रोमांस से भीगी। उन्होंने जागीरदार, वतन और एक ही रास्ता जैसी लीक से अलग सफल फ़िल्में बनाई। लेकिन, उन्हें ख़ास सराहना मिली पर्ल एस बक के उपन्यास मदर पर आधारित फिल्म औरत से। इस फिल्म में उन्होंने एक सूदखोर साहुकार के अत्याचारों से तंग आकर गाँव छोड़ कर चले गए किसान की अकेली औरत के संघर्ष को दिखाया था। इस फिल्म को सराहना के साथ साथ बड़ी सफलता भी मिली। लेकिन, महबूब को अंतर्राष्ट्रीय ख्याति मिली औरत के रीमेक मदर इंडिया (१९५७) से। इस फिल्म को ऑस्कर पुरस्कारों में नामांकन मिला। महबूब को श्रेष्ठ फिल्म का राष्ट्रीय फिल्म पुरस्कार भी मिला। उन्होंने म्यूजिकल मनमोहन और जागीरदार बनाई तो ज़मींदार के अत्याचार पर रोटी भी बनाई। दो पुरुषों के एक स्त्री से प्रेम की कहानी अंदाज़ समय से काफी पहले की फिल्म थी। इस फिल्म ने हिंदी सिनेमा को त्रिकोण फ़िल्में बनाने का फार्मूला दिया। हलके फुल्के रोमांस वाली फिल्म अनमोल घड़ी बड़ी हिट फिल्म साबित हुई। दिलीप कुमार, नादिरा और निम्मी अभिनीत फिल्म आन देश की पहली टैक्नीकलर फिल्म थी। महबूब खान एक साफ़ दिल आदमी थे। राजकपूर के साथ रोमांस के कारण नर्गिस फिल्म आन को बीच रास्ते छोड़ कर चली गई थी, लेकिन, इसके बावजूद महबूब खान ने मदर इंडिया की राधा नर्गिस को ही बनाया। उन्होंने ऐतराज़ करने पर दिलीप कुमार को हटा कर सुनील दत्त को बिरजू बना दिया। लेकिन, दिलीप कुमार का दबाव सहन नहीं किया। यहाँ उल्लेखनीय है कि नर्गिस को तक़दीर फिल्म से नायिका बनाने वाले महबूब खान ही थे। उन्होंने ही फातिमा को नर्गिस नाम दिया था। कैसी विडम्बना है कि लगातार हिट फिल्म देने वाले महबूब खान की आखिरी फिल्म सन ऑफ़ इंडिया (१९६२) फ्लॉप हो गई । इस फिल्म की रिलीज़ के दो साल के अंदर महबूब खान का भारत के पहले प्रधान मंत्री पंडित जवाहर लाल नेहरू की मृत्यु के एक दिन बाद २८ मई १९५७ को निधन हो गया। उनकी सौंवी जन्मतिथि पर भारत सरकार के डाक विभाग ने डाक टिकट जारी किया था।
