Suprabh’s Take on Jab Tak Hai Jaan

Prolog

Bhoora, Gora Gaye bazaar, wahan se laaye Bomb ka achaar
Bhoora Bola Mai Fussunga, Gora Bola Mai fussunga
Gore ne diya bhaav
Bhoora bola, assi major saab

Review

Bhagwaan Ke liye mujhe ChHod Do
please Bhagwaan ke liye mujhe chHod do

These are legendary lines that have been spoken by various actresses throughout the time line of Hindi Cinema. Here’s finally a movie that justifies these words and makes you believe that everything happens for a reason.
Jab Tak Hai Jaan- the title could not have been more apt. It literally asks its viewers to bear it while their life and the sanity inside it can hold off from exploding like a bomb. Jab Tak Hai Jaan tells a tale of how God works in mysterious ways- Jab miya biwi raazi toh kaand karega paparazzi. Jab Tak Hain Jaan begins its love cum lust tale of Army Jawans and the reason why they are called jawaans. It tells you that discovery reporters’s short chaddis are the reason why they are still in the army and why they allow any 21 year old to call them by their first name as if she was their class buddy. It shows that we have so supremely talented guitar strumming poetry churning, and confident Bomb diffusing men in the army that they would allow a trainee reporter to swing her ass right next to the bomb while filming and chit chatting.

To me this is what a film and a performance being liked really means…

Your husband is reticent to the point of being self-evasive. You are an incorrigible extrovert. How does it work so well between the two of you?

That old Physics law of attraction of opposites! Besides, I need to have a listener, and Murthy is the perfect listener. I realised early on that he is a man of few words, and that I should make my peace with it. Marriage works well if you don’t have grand expectations from each other. I talk, he listens, and it works. Murthy may be economical with words, but he’s a very giving person.

But you like going out for movies, and he’s certainly not one for that…

I take my sister with me. But recently, and it took some doing (the fact that the hall was very close to home helped), I made him watch English Vinglish with me. He liked it. I think it was a brilliant movie, and many middle-class women in India will be able to relate to the subject. Sridevi was a delight to watch.

Bollywood High on ACTION Films

Come 2013, and Bollywood is going to be where all the action is —
literally. While actors like Akshay Kumar, John Abraham and Ajay
Devgn have adopted this as their preferred genre, other stars better
known for romantic films are also on board the action bandwagon.

Reigning kings of Action :

Akshay Kumar & Salman Khan are arguably the biggest action heroes in
Bollywood. It’s hardly surprising then that Salman stars in Sajid
Nadiadwala’s directional debut, Kick (a remake of a 2009 Telugu hit
film). Nadiadwala says, “Salman’s last three action films have all
crossed Rs. 150 crore. With other action films like Krrish 3 and
Dhoom:3, I’ll need to take Kick to a different level.” Salman is also rumoured to be starring in another remake of a Telugu film called
Brundavanam (2010).
Akshay also has multiple action films lined up — Neeraj Pandey’s
Special Chhabis, AR Murugadoss’s Thuppakki remake, the remake of
Ramana (2002; Tamil), and the Hindi version of Pokkiri Raja (2010;
Malayalam). The remake run continues with Ajay Devgn’s Himmatwala (the 1983 original). Sajid Khan, who is directing the film, says, “Mindless
action doesn’t work. It requires the right emotions.”
