After LSD, Neha Chauhan back with another hard-hitting film

7 years ago

Those of you who were wondering where Neha Chauhan, the girl-next-door, had disappeared after LSD – Love Sex aur Dhokha, well she is very much around. Just that she wanted to take up a script that she absolutely loved. And she got it with ‘G Kutta Se’ where she plays a girl from a Haryana village, who falls in love with a boy of her own village, supposed to be a strict taboo in rural parts of the state as every boy and girl in a village are considered brother and sister. The film premiered at the MAMI festival recently and there was a melee for invites outside the theatre while inside the auditorium people were standing in the aisles to watch it. It seems the wait after all was worth it for Neha.

So I’m clean, but I do behave like you saw like a 21-year-old in my movies. Yeah, I do that. I sell dreams, and I peddle love to millions of people back home in India who assume that I’m the best lover in the world. If you don’t tell anyone, I’m going to tell you I’m not, but I never let that assumption go away. I’ve also been made to understand there are lots of you here who haven’t seen my work, and I feel really sad for you.

‘Bahubali 2: The Conclusion’ is a once-in-a-lifetime film. A box office phenomenon like the S.S. Rajamouli film happens only once in a decade or two. The last time a film pushed the level of film business to an altogether different level was Sooraj Barjatya’s ‘Hum Aapke Hain Kaun’ and before that we’d probably have to go back as far as Ramesh Sippy’s ‘Sholay’. But a box office storm like ‘Bahubali 2’, a film that has shattered records across the country, has both advantages and disadvantages.

Trendspotting In Hindi Films!

It has happened so often that key themes, plots or storylines of a successful movie has been suitably incorporated in subsequent movies to mirror the box office performance of the first one. What is even more intriguing is the repeat success of the above method on many occasions attaining the status of a formula at times. Back in the 70s, Megastar Amitabh Bachchan’s “angry young man” image in the initial days was started by the super-hit run of Zanjeer (1973) which ran all the way till vigilante film Shahenshah in 1988. The action blended with drama in movies in the 1970s had ‘deteriorated’ to violence in late 1980s thus keeping the family audience away from theaters at the height of home video and film piracy. This is evident from the box office results of that era which had peaked at 15 crores (Sholay) in 1975 itself but remained stagnant for the coming two decades with some of the biggest movies of the 80s like Kranti, Naseeb and Coolie grossing a below par figure of 10 crores. Towards the turn of the decade Maine Pyar Kiya (1989) came close to Sholay but the trend changed for good only in the 1990s.
