Aishwarya

Four Superhits In A Month

In July 1999, Bachchan was named the "Greatest Star of stage or screen of the Millennium" by BBC online poll where he defeated many Hollywood legends such as 



Kasme Vaade1978Amit / Shankar[a]Ramesh Behl
Trishul1978Vijay KumarYash Chopra
Don1978Don / VijayChandra Barot
Muqaddar Ka Sikandar1978SikandarPrakash Mehra

There is no doubt that megastar of the millennium, Amitabh Bachchan , at 74, is one of the top three names on the wishlist of all filmmakers. And why not... there was a time when the superstar delivered as many as four superhits in one month. Yes, you read that right! While today’s actors celebrate short-term successes, Big B delivered four commercial successes in a row in October 1978. In one of his recent interviews, Bachchan revealed how the audience doesn’t mind watching four films of the same actor in the same month as long as the film delivers good content and entertainment. The films that released back-to-back and went on to become superhits were ‘Muqaddar Ka Sikander,’ ‘Kasme Vaade,’ ‘Don’ and ‘Trishul.’ Interestingly, two of these four films – ‘Kasme Vaade’ and ‘Don’ – saw Amitabh in a double role. Another intriguing fact is that barring ‘Don,’ three other films saw Rakhee as the female lead opposite Bachchan. What’s commendable is that all four films were directed by four different filmmakers, had drastically different stories and saw Bachchan essaying diametrically opposite characters.

Censor

Given the content of the film, were you skeptical about Censor Board's reaction?

Vir: I think Milap knew that some things would be cut so we had shot 150 per cent so we could retain 100 per cent in the film.

Shoe String Budget

The Ramsays were originally the Ramsinghanis, who ran an electronics shop in Karachi and Lahore. After Partition, Fatehchand U. Ramsay (F.U. Ramsay) along with his seven sons, moved to Mumbai and set up an electronics shop at Lamington Road.

Soon, lured by the glamour of Hindi cinema, he got into show business with films such as

  1. Shaheed-e-Azam Bhagat Singh (1954), 
  2. Rustam Sohrab (1963) and 
  3. Ek Nanhi Munni Ladki Thi (1970). 
The films flopped and the Ramsays were reeling under huge debts when inspiration struck. In a scene in Ek Nanhi Munni Ladki Thi, Prithviraj Kapoor wears a devil’s mask to carry out a robbery and terrifies Mumtaz. The film didn’t work but the “monster” sequence did, 

Do Gaz Zameen Ke Neeche 

Encouraging the Ramsays to experiment with Do Gaz Zameen Ke Neeche (1971). The film was advertised in a half-hour, late-night show on radio which helped it get the “Houseful” board up when it was released. Its success sparked a trend of shoe-string budget movies that were wrapped up in a month with a crew of 15.  Their first film Do Gaz Zameen Ke Neeche proved a milestone for them and for Indian horror film industry. At a time when the

  1. Average Hindi film took about a year and 50 lakhs to complete, 
  2. Do Gaz Zameen Ke Neeche was shot in 40 days on a budget of Rs 3.5 lakhs. 

All the seven Ramsey brothers boarded buses with small-time actors, a sparse film crew, their wives and their mother and father and drove to a government guesthouse in Mahabaleshwar that cost Rs 12 a room – they took eight rooms. 
  1. They didn’t spend on sets because they shot on location. 
  2. They didn’t spend on costumes because these were picked out of actors’ wardrobes. 
  3. The cameras were all borrowed. 
  4. All the departments for making the film was taken care by the seven brothers. 
The film ran to full houses in the first week after its release. It made Rs 45 lakhs.


Films 

The Ramsay Brothers have made more than 30 horror films in India, which epitomise the lower depths of 1980s Bollywood

  1. sleaze and 
  2. gore, 
but which have secured their place in Hindi cinema’s hall of fame as the pioneers of horror.They are 
  1. producers, 
  2. directors and 
  3. editors 
for many famous Hindi horror movies such as 
  1. Veerana, 
  2. Purana Mandir, 
  3. Purani Haveli and 
  4. Bandh Darwaza, 
and the TV series "Zee Horror Show".

ZeroBudget

Today Bollywood is going through a phase when film makers go out of their way to spend an enormous amount of money to make their movie bigger than the rest. And there are those who have shot films on a shoestring budget. So, when a struggling yet determined movie maker like Tejas Padia completed a full-fledged feature film on zero budget, the news was strong enough to make headlines.
Tejas, who debuted in the film making circuit with ‘Ek Shukravaar’ in 2006, is going to release his film titled ‘Lo! Ho Gai Party: Some parties lead to mess’ in January.
The film is about events that unfold one night when four friends celebrate the fact that one of them has bought a secondhand car. Apparently, the movie was shot with a borrowed camera in a record 21-day period. The film features newcomers as well as industry veterans like Manoj Joshi and Satish Kaushik. And all the actors did their job for free!
“Everything from stationery to the location of for the film was borrowed,” says Tejas Padia. Nearly 60 percent of the film was shot in Tejas’ friend’s posh house in Ghatkopar. The rest of the portions were shot in Bandra and Jogeshwari in Mumbai.
The movie will release online and can be watched free of cost. Kudos to the entire cast and crew of ‘Lo Ho Gayi Party’ for making a remarkable and inspiring effort!
