Naaz Cinema Building in South Mumbai was the address for the film distribution and exhibition trade in the city, besides all the peripheral businesses that served and survived on these trades. The cinema itself had seen some glorious days with a number of great hits screened there and the building above it was where just about every major film distributor and exhibitor worked from. Whether it was a first-time film producer, or a regular maker, a visit to Naaz was a must to sell his film.
I remember two such stories about unsold films, though there may be many more.
Producer K C Bokadia had made ‘Pyar Jhukta Nahin’ with Mithun Chakraborty and Padmini Kolhapure. Those days, when it came to a Mithun film, the distributors were spoilt for choice; they had flooded the market.
Bokadia took the proposal to the office of a distributor and got an offer which he did not like.

Actress Kriti Sanon is all praise for Ashutosh Gowariker, her director in the upcoming film, "Panipat". She says the filmmaker "cannot see his women weak", a reason his female characters are always strong and powerful.
In "Panipat", the actress plays Maratha warrior Sadashiv Rao Bhau's wife Parvati Bai. Talking about how Gowariker has imagined Parvati Bai as a very strong person, Kriti said: "Ashu sir, I feel, is someone who cannot see his women weak. He has this thing."

With the spine tingling themes of haunted abandoned havelis (mansions), reincarnation, revenge of the dead and wandering lost spirits – who said that Bollywood only told romantic tales?

Yes – this was the the first time Bollywood truly met the “horror” genre through Kamal Amrohi’s box office smash hit, Mahal (1949). Starring Ashok Kumar and Madhubala in the lead, Mahal was the very first Hindi film to explore the theme of re-incarnation. In the style of a thriller, Mahal pioneered the way for Gothic Indian fiction.

Director: Rajkumar Santoshi; Screenwriter: Rajkumar Santoshi; Starring: Shahid Kapoor, Ileana D'Cruz, Padmini Kolhapure, Sanjay Mishra, Saurabh Shukla; Running time: 147 mins; Certificate: 12A
Credited with directing one of Indian cinema's most successful comedies Andaaz Apna Apna, you'd think you were in safe hands in a Raj Kumar Santoshi film. Tragically for Shahid Kapoor, the director seems to be stuck in the past with this clumsy homily to escapist '80s comedy, the likes of which should never see the light of day.
While Vishwas Rao (Shahid Kapoor) dreams of becoming a movie star like his idol Salman Khan, his mother (Padmini Kolhapure) has aspirations of making him a respected police officer. Under the ruse of joining the Mumbai police academy, Vishwas heads for the bright lights of Bollywood to pursue his acting ambitions. When social worker 'Complaint Kajal' (Ileana D' Cruz) confuses him for a real police officer, Vishwas hits upon...

Rajkumar Santoshi’s comedies are mostly about ‘anything goes’ and his latest Phata Poster Nikhla Hero (Ppnh) is no different. Once again he creates a madcap world which may seem more authentic in an animation film than a real one. Shouldering the responsibility of bringing Santoshi’s vision alive on screen is Shahid Kapoor who uses this as an opportunity to showcase his versatility.
Vishwas (Shahid) dreams of becoming an actor but his single mother Savitri (Padmini Kolhapure) wants to see him as an honest police officer. He moves to Mumbai to try his hand at films and comes across the overenthusiastic social worker Kajal (Ileana D’Souza) who mistakes him for a real cop. Helping her earns him an enemy Gundappa (Saurabh Shukla), an underworld Don. More trouble follows in the form of his mother who lands up in Mumbai with the misconception that he has finally become a police officer.

Film: "Phata Poster Nikla Hero"; Cast: Shahid Kapoor, Ileana D'Cruz and Padmini Kolhapure; Writer-Director: Rajkumar Santoshi; Rating: **1/2
Let's get one thing straight. This isn't what you want to see a super-gifted filmmaker like Rajkumar Santoshi do when he gets together with a talented star-actor like Shahid Kapoor.
But what to do? Everyone wants a good laugh! It makes us forget about the troubles outside. Never mind the trouble that humour seems to encounter on screen each time someone makes a comedy.
To his credit, Santoshi deftly delivers the dynamics of drollery. No two ways about it. Unlike last week's lewd laughter in "Grand Masti", "Phata Poster Nikla Hero" (Ppnh) avoids vulgarity like the plague.
Dirty.
