Ойын-сауық

A year after the release of his blockbuster Padmaavat starring Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone and Shahid Kapoor, reclusive filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali speaks exclusively to Anupama Chopra about the trauma he underwent leading up to the film’s release and why no filmmaker in the world should have to endure what he did. The filmmaker does a deep dive into his process of filmmaking, how he creates music while having a shower and how he leaves scope for spontaneity in his frames. We also get a peek into what Bhansali is working on next.

    And Deepika. She had successful movies before and she was doing well but Deepika was taken as a serious actor only after Ramleela. That movie plus Bajirao Mastani and Padmaavat completely transformed her career and catapulted her to the number 1 spot no doubt.

Aditya Chopra signed Sushant and Parineeti for three films to launch them as YRF's next superstars. Just like what YRF did with Ranveer and Anushka. Just like what Dharma did with Varun, Alia and Sidhharth. Sushant came into the movies because of Aditya Chopra, you and I know Sushant only because Aditya Chopra decided to cast him in YRF movies.

    After 'Lootera' Ranveer Singh didn't have much to do. Then came 'Ram Leela', 'Bajirao Mastani' and 'Padmavat', movies that shaped his career and established him as an actor par excellence. He's indebted for life to Mr. Bhansali. If it was not these movies I don't know if other directors would have imagined him in movies like 'Gully boys' and '83'.

    Sanjay Sir's Khamoshi is one of the best movies I have seen. I loved Nana and Manisha in it. There is a scene where an angry Manisha is trying to reason out with her deaf-mute father Nana, using hand language. While she is frantically arguing with Nana, he slams the door shut on her. Manisha continues arguing, her fingers flaying about in desperation, making mute conversation with Nana and all along Nana is behind the closed door out of her sight. Brilliant acting.

    @@norahoti1950 You are so true.. Mainly the names you have mentioned have really a lot of tolerance.. Specially Aishwarya, Abhishek and nowadays SRK..🙏🙏.. May be because of such power only despite of having no Film background Aishwarya,Deepika,SRK, Priyanka etc are bigger names than their contemporaries, mainly in West.

    @@sidhartha8444 and the main reason they are so big is bc they're actually really talented, not like some of those who are in the industry bc of their privilige 👀 like Alia. She's not that bad but neither is she that good and without her father and Karan she would probably only have small supporting roles. The rest of the world doesn't care about actors family backround, we care about their talent and those I mentioned are really the most talented. Also, I'd say Katrina Anushka and Ranbir are very talented, but not as talented as those I mentioned at first.

    Such a great interview , we get such an insight into this filmmakers mind , I mean how beautiful is it he said I was deprived of that beauty all my life so I created it in my films , from not having money to painting a wall , to having money to paint as much as he wanted , some people might say he is out , he lives in his own world but that's the beauty of it all he has created his own world where everything is so beautiful and perfect all that he has craved all his life , all that he wanted but never got , he is living through his films , I salute you sir and I hope I can be like you

    Bro a national award is not given to mediocre films. 2.0 and 'I' are the 2 big budget south films that i can recall besides the bahubali series. And you cant compare the two with Bhansali's films. Youve gotta respect his vision for historicals. Manikarnika looks jack shit in front of padmaavat from what ive gathered from the trailer. Ashutosh gowariker lost his touch. Hes the last maestro in that bracket whos still relevant
