10 Beautiful Frames From Indian Cinema Of The Past 10 Years: www.filmcompanion.in/fc-lists/10-beautiful-frames-from-indian-cinema-of-the-past-10-years/
The most overrated film of this decade... other than music everything is so overhyped... be it Ranbirs overacting.... or pathetic n stolen story line... who likes cheesy romantic flick these days.??
@@shashnksharma2840 do u know anything about acting kid? If u don't know cinema then don't comment
Why do they have to suck blood of young talents like SSR by posting blind articles like the one put on by the 'Salt and Pepper' guy about Sushant being a rap*st? These same reviewers get the support of others, who has such a similar blind mentality and can't accept a person's success, if they build a career of their own. These same women talk about feminism but no one were supporting Kangana all these years. She may not be right 100%. But, there is certainly some truth about what she speaks and no one supports her for that. Where are these feminists then? sleeping or getting stuff from the biggies? If a random girl speaks about sexual abuse, no one really cares if what she is speaking is genuine. But, these hypocrites respond to such stuff saying them as 'Brave, Good job etc etc'. But where are these so called feminists when Kangana speaks about Mukesh Bhatt throwing chappal at her or the abuse that she has to take for exposing the bollywood mafia? So called critics take the first place in sucking the blood of the film industry by being the parasites.
mam plzz bring or make online conversations with 'bengali' actors/directors 🔥💓
love and respect 💝
The spiritual brilliance that Ranbir achieved in this film was just remarkable.l've not seen any of his contemporaries achieve it yet. RANBIR KAPOOR is arguably the best actor of our generation.
what do you mean by spiritual brilliance , can you elaborate
@@anubhavsharma38 carefully watch his performance in kun faya kun song , you will understand what i meant , he totally surrendered himself in that song.
@@anubhavsharma38 Watch him in Phir Se Udd Chala, how he surrenders his body to the crowd. And then later, when he is successful, he won't let his screaming fans touch his body, and keeps walking on.
Watch him in his college days, strutting in his tight jeans and 'manly' walk. And then watch him in Dhingra's office, hopping and swinging without a care, tearing up contracts and shackles.
I agree!
@@4mevrywhr2evrywhr it's the brilliance of director and writing! he just did what Imtiaz ali asked him to do! He created that character with two different spectrum, almost like a walking contradiction!
Okay. I have to comment here like an idiot/religious fan of this movie. Anupama saying the transition to saadda haq was just put in to make it look cool explains the exact point nearly everyone missed about Rockstar. The direction style was so fresh that most mediocre film critics like Anupama missed the effect he wanted to produce. Imtiaz used a masterful timeline progression to show how Jordan gets to different pivotal points in his journey, through the use of montages. Before the point where he goes to Prague, he has seen basic levels of hardships: homelessness and breakup. He is portrayed as this lost and angry person. At this point, he is living his dream to be a singer, but he still doesn't know what is going on with his mind. He looks at Heer's window, looks with empty eyes at the sky, till he finds out that he has a chance to meet Heer. His path to darkness kindda begins there. He meets her, and falls into the next depth of love, only to be chucked off of her life again. She herself has to throw him out because of society, rules and prestige. He returns to India to enter his next level of darkness: the rebel. He hates people, his fans and the society at its existence. That's where saadda haq comes in. The song's remenassance with people fighting for freedom all around the country shows the sheer suffocation the emotion of love and purity has to face in this society. This here ends the address to your confusion of his character arc. But to complete my rant, I want to proceed further. After that point, Jordan reunites with Heer only to find out that she is about to die. He immediately decides to get into that bubble and tries to become happy again. This time around, he finds out that as they dig one level deeper into their love, nature itself rebels against their love and kills her. He now is pushed into the last level of darkness where he is existing: to eventually die. He sings to allmighty: take away my physical being, but no matter what dont take away my hope to reunite. The movie then ends with them living peacefully in their after lives signifying the field that Jordan asks her to wait at at the start of the movie. Rockstar always will be one of the best directed movies from india for it is the form of direction that is adept enough to amalgamate fimmaking with the core emotion behind the story.
The best thing in the internet in a decade.
I felt the same,Rockstar is something else.....
I am glad somebody resonates my take from this outstanding movie. It’s alright if Imtiaz Ali movies are not hit or have huge fan following. Like not every book is for all readers, so it be with Imtiaz movies. His movies are food for soul, n entertainment.
Thanks for saying it
Bro to be frank I didn't read what u wrote but u wrote that much big para that means u have great patience level hats off
I think you are one of the people who was so connected to Ranbir's character that you were imagining things that the film doesn't even try to say. It happened to me in 'Tamasha' as well.
Ranbir kapoor’s movies age like wine. Idc what shit ppl talk about him. He’s the best we have.
I always felt Ranbir in Rockstar was the best I had ever seen in an Indian commercial movie and that there are no current actors who could match that level until I saw Faahad Fasil's acting in Trance.
People who haven't watched it yet definitely should give it a watch.
I request Imtiaz Ali to go back to Ranbir. Only Ranbir has that ability to sense your actual emotions from the script.
Try to watch Laila Majnu written by Imtiaz Ali .Avinash tiwary was brilliant in it
Fahadh is one hell of an actor.. MONSTER🔥
Film companion said about Rahman sir in the beginning being one of the biggest highlights of the film ... Agreed ... But here I feel one shud not forget Mr Irshad kamil sahab ... And his impeccable lyrics ... He brings so much more depth to the songs and adds to the beauty of the film
Even this happened with Jab Harry Met Sejal ... Safar the song bought so much depth ... Hawayein song made people intrigued and inquisitive But we didn't find that flavour in the film and hence felt let down
So round of applause for Mr Kamil ... He is worth mentioning ... @film companion
So true 👌
Even I expected a bit of an appreciation for Irshad Kamil sir in this interview
Also Mohit Chauhan.. He was passionate too.. Each and every song he sung perfectly 💯
POV: Heer in Rockstar, Tara in Tamasha and Mahabir in Highway are actually a part of the leads respectively. They are not actual beings but the personification of the feelings of the protagonists.
Heer is the peace Jordan needed to calm down and get his head out of the things he was feeling. Therefore, when he is actually at peace, Heer fades away to his soul(which is represented as death). Tum Ho by Mohit Chauhan tells the need of peace and Kun Faya Kun also tells the surrendering to the God.
Tara is the heart of Ved which he ignored as he made decisions with his mind. Agar Tum Saath Ho beautifully captures the arguments between the brain(Ved-Male part-Cream colored dress) and the heart(Tara-Female part-Red colored dress).
Mahabir is the actually neither the heart nor the soul of Veera but the urge to travel. The urge to break free and to breathe without any suffocation. She first doesn’t accept the decision to go out(a problem of introverts) but finally comes to terms with it and enjoys. Maahi Ve tells the story of acceptance of the happiness of travelling by Veera.
I think, Ranbir is the embodiment of art and the artist in one and Heer is the individual engaging with art in society.
They both need each other, desperately. The individual is stuck amidst the freedom and freshness of art and the constraints of society. Heer wants to break free and she needs art, otherwise she dies.
Similarly art( and the artist) needs the individual to have any meaning. Janardhan can derive no meaning from his life without Heer. Symbolically, it is Heer who names him Jordan.
I am glad that he made 2 of his superior films with ARR...I am a fan
3
Rockstar, Highway, and Tamaasha.
@@faizhamza3537 and now four Masterpieces with ARR, adding movie chamkila to the list.
For me ‘Aur Ho’ remains the benchmark song of the album, unparalleled composition and singing
totally
Can you guys do this for 'LOOTERA ' for me it was a fine piece of art ! And job done by Amit Trivedi and vikramditya motwane is commendable .
The story line , performances , cinematography and man MUSIC ❤️.. I have no words to describe these !
Thank you for this Truly .....I am someone who hated Tamasha & Rockstar the first time I saw it in the theatre ....& have absolutely Fallen in Love the Second time I rediscovered them in 2022 .....I feel some films cannot be appreciated in a theatre with an audience, they need to be absorbed alone at home at night with yourself (for me most films are that way ) Imtiaz Ali Films especially Tamasha is that Film a true cinematic masterpiece from Bollywood......& RANBIR KAPOOR.
Here's the thing: both Ae Dil and Rockstar feature a first half that I assume is a version of a true story that took place, and the second half features things that people fantasize about after a heartbreak: becoming a rockstar or a famous celebrity, the girl having an unsuccessful marriage, her cheating on her husband, her dying, the guy dating literally the hottest woman in the world (Aishwariya Rai), I could go on. It's like I wrote the screenplay for those movies. I didn't think successful movie directors fantasized about the same things. And that's part of the problem: fantasies like those are fun for the guy fantasizing but they are not fun to watch for anyone else. Heartbreaks are relatable and are coming from a very real place, but the events that follow are inauthentic, self-indulgent, and are not something the writers of these movies have experienced or can credibly write about. And that kind of break from reality is noticeable.
In which world are you living? I have seen a real life example in my life, my friend He was such a chomu guy, he used to play video games till 26. He was a loser in a mediocre job. Some of his married male colleagues whom he used to have drinks made fun of him that he's Virgin, he has No gf. There are two of beautiful girls in office. They incited him to develop friendship with them n woo one of them n then marry them. This guy took it seriously n tried wooing them. It started with taking their number, slowly he developed friendship. He was pretty awkward n used to ask me what to chat, how to chat etc. I told him to not propose n just have fun, don't take it seriously. But the boy messed up he proposed with both of them n got rejected. To his worse both ladies got to know that he was after both of them. So it was very bad impression. Guy was heartbroken, embarrassed he felt like a total loser. He then started focusing on a ugly female colleague n going out with her. Made good friendship with her. Then after 2 months a new beautiful colleague joined their office. This colleague was room mate of this ugly colleague. So few times she joined their outing. Now this guy, groomed up now from past debacle started hitting on her with fresh approach. This girl was very beautiful, even more beautiful than previous girl. This girl started giving him positive response n eventually accepted his proposal. The guy dated her n did everything. The other two girls were jealous. He then even hooked up with them as well. It sound like a filmy story but it's the real story of this chomu guy who had heartbreak. So such stories exist bro.
Well put, never thought about this common aspect in both these films !!
@@adityasen2281 dats d first thing comes to ur mind wen Anushka says dil toota hua nai hai.. jab toote tab gaalena etc
When it comes to acting, no one comes close to Ranbir in this generation.
Ssr better...kuch bhi matlab kuch bh
@Truth Seeker yeah just bcoz he is no more doesn't make him a better actor than ranbir. Yeah he was much better than most of the actors but nowhere close to ranbir. Sorry.
😅 that's funny !
Ye nakli ssr ki Jay band Karo
Itne years Tak to koi kuch Nahi bola
@Truth Seeker In all respects to ssr but ranbir kapoor's talent is way above everyone
Rockstar was a film that I liked and I couldn't understand why. It just spoke to me on an emotional level. And this was despite the toxic masculinity, man-child protagonist and weak female characterization that usually puts me off. This discussion helped me look at the film from different perspectives and get closer to understanding why.
It is a flawed film, sure. But when it comes to the themes of music, heartbreak love and pain, very few contemporary films spoke to me like Rockstar did. ADHDM and Aashiqui 2, which had similar themes, probably had more coherent storylines, but they lacked the soul and depth, and hence the emotional impact of a film like Rockstar.
I don't think rockstar originated toxic masculinity genre.Devdas was the original toxic manchild
The women in Devdas had an existence other than their relationship and its effect on the hero unlike Rockstar
@@AtulSingh-uu9vt nahh the women were running to devdas all the time even when he treated them like shit. I dont even know why chanda fell in love with Devdas in the first place.
@@Lazymath007_ their feelings for dev were as significantly shown in the as Dev's love. While in Rockstar heer is simply an object of jordan's love
The most overrated film of this decade... other than music everything is so overhyped... be it Ranbirs overacting.... or pathetic n stolen story line... who likes cheesy romantic flick these days.??
Interestingly enough, I never watched Devdas. Nor remember Rockstar. One would want to hear about Devdas from a Bengali. They abhor the Bollywood version.
Few years down the line film companion team will revisit the FC Retake and rename it as Ranbir Kapoor Retake ❤️
Rahul actually talked some insightful shit while making a point while undermining his own point. That we find deeper meaning in art which artist didn't actually meant. This point could work on Rockstar and Tamasha.
I think Rockstar is one of the only movie I have seen like more then 300 times and still it makes me energetic and keeps me going on cuz of songs like kun faya kun and how luck behaves towards your destiny to achieve your target. Truly a masterpiece in the history of south Asian cinema
"Rockstar" its still one of my favourite and it will be one of my favourite..i will make my kids watch this film "chahe zabardsti" so that they can encouter and love this gem..❤️❤️
Ranbir kapoor is the best Actor we have. In this time where there is debate of Outsider vs insider. Nepotism debate after Sushant's tragic demise, We can't deny that Ranbir Kapoor is the best product of nepotism. He is even better than so called outsiders.
True that 👍
I second that
U should start watching more movies.
He is good but not even closer to raj kumar and nawaz.
@@physicsKa14 Full respect to Nawaz and Raj Kumar but Ranbir is not lesser than them.
@@stifler4eva1 No way! Rajkumar is way ahead when it comes to acting but hasnt got that number of films that Ranbir has got because of his last name. Thats where nepotism exists!
Can you’ll please do the ‘My Movie Milestone’ segment with Ranbir Kapoor on Rockstar. Please
The bestest thing coming out of FC !!!!!!!! Bigfan of FC , Rockstar , Imitiaz Ali , Anupama and all of it together is a blesssing !!!!!!
Don't forget Rahul Desai
HUGE fan of RD
While Rahul Desai talks like a true film critic whose perspective you are fascinated to hear, Anupama's speciality is the simple cinephile vibe that she exhibits, making her very likeable and relatable.
This needed to be longer! It is so good to listen to you discuss movies and having Imtiaz in was the icing. Could listen to Imtiaz talk about his films all day long.
How many thumbs up for our Boy ?
Oh God missing Ranbir 😍Imtiaz convo ... 😍😍😍 #Rockstar over any movie any day on repeat mode.... Love this gem of Indian cinema
ROCKSTAR & TAMASHA are indeed one of the best films of Bollywood.
My favrt ranbir movie is rocketsingh nd wake up sid. Both movies r so underrated
It's a good sign. Why? Ranbir has made better choices.
This is why retakes or retros start making sense.
Exactly...on the other hand this one is the most overrated film of this decade... other than music everything is so overhyped... be it Ranbirs overacting.... or pathetic n stolen story line... who likes cheesy romantic flick these days.??
@@shashnksharma2840 i Will partially agree with u. Coz rockstar ko release ke waqt appreciation Nhi Milla. So ab cult banke zyada appreciation mil Rha hai... Romantic flicks Nhi psnd mjhe Bhi.. But i liked laila majnu. Thats 1 i Will recommend.. I like rajneeti of ranbir as well
Skip to 16:20 for Imtiaz Ali
This is just too valuable.. Thank you FC, such a good one! Thanks Rahul Desai for the way you look at cinema..
I can so relate to Imtiaz Sir. I struggle to understand what it means to be commercial, to be liked for one's vanity. Though there is no joy other than making and creating ones own version. I happened to meet him years back when Tamasha was released and I was intrigued by how ' normal' he is. Thank you Sir, for sharing your favorite moment from the film.
Ohhh my gooshhhh!!! This is awesomeee. Rockstar!!!!! My favourite film forever.
AR Rahman is real ROCKSTAR of the film🔥🔥🔥🔥
Tamasha is the better film. Still, Rockstar will always be my favourite amongst all that Imitiaz Ali has created.
Here is a thought: what if Rockstar was narrated from the point of view of Ranbir cousin sister whom he calls "chotu". And what if he was like Hariyanvi Bob Dylan who is anti establishment in his songs yet when questioned replies that he didn't intend them that way. Its people making their own interpretations
I have found new respect for ladies and gentlemen who grow their hair long during this lockdown, because I thought I would go insane when my hair got long during lockdown, I am feeling 6-7 kg light after haircut
We want rockstar movie pls imtiaz sir pls make part 2 ..i know there is no need 2nd part but I want back my rockstar days
Loving this series FC Retake. The idea of bringing in the director of the film being dissected is fascinating to see. Keep them coming!
Do a retake on DevD
What I like about that movie that both paro and chandramukhi have agencies and also it shows throughout all the devdas stories it is the paro and chandramukhi who actually knows what love is and not Devdas, This movie compelled me to watch all the adaptations of the same but this interpretation is simply mindblowing.
I can't thank enough Anurag to give chandramukhi a back story
I need an episode to deconstruct the song, "Agar tum Saath ho." Not the scenes from the film but the song. I have a lot to say about it, I want to know the creators' point of view. It is more than just a regular love song.
It was already covered by imitiaz in one of the FC interviews
You are so right. This song is so one with one's vulnerability and loveness that it to me is almost a synonym of pain. Thanks for noticing that. Cheers.
Rahman saab told that in a interview that he did not have any plan to mix arijit voices in two octaves. It was a happy accident
Thank you for this, going to watch Rockstar now, for the nth time!
This movie is cult ..this movie is emotion...a masterpiece
I love Film Companion interviews ! Great, Engaging and total fun ! Thanks
It's beautiful poetic movie beyond imagination. 😍😍 I was 11 when this movie came I did not feel it that time also I couldn't understand it but now have watched it again and it's just beautiful.
One for "Laila Majnu" please
My humble request to Imtiaz sir: please take good actors in your next movie. Your characters are layered and complex so it demands real talents not cuty pies like Karthik Aaryan and Sara Ali khan.
Yah yah plzz
I liked Rockstar because of its music and Ranbir's acting.. Heroine (or her role in the movie)was its minus. Completely agree with Anupama's take on this. Had the heroine's character was strong this movie would have become more successful and believable.
Exactly how i felt too.
I cannot compare these two films. They are different people. There will always be politics when two subjects and people are involved. When any piece of craft generates from pain it becomes Art And to me him being a rockstar was also a metaphor for the journey one just endure to reach that level of inner self.
Yo!! Yoo guys spoke about the editing something I always discussed way too much about. Loved this
Hey FC Retake
Please continue with this edition. It has been a long time.
It was a frickin piece of art.
An experience. What I would not give to see it in a theatre for the first time.
Omg the first 11 minutes and this guy Rahul has described the movie in a way that is just perfect.
Saw the title, hit Like before I even started watching
Imtiaz Ali.... He's some other level.
Rahul Desai explained the concept of the film pretty well.
Ppl need to go back to Imtiaz ali films... It's often too ahead of its times and ppl wd always end up understanding it and liking it more the 2nd time u see...
Imtiaz ali world is not for everyone... You need an extremely high Emotional quotient to comprehend it.
You said it man! I really feel he is not for everyone.But if his films are your cup of tea...then you are not leaving that cup forever! He is just something else....
So true about the EQ part. Without the EQ it is very tough for people to get Imtiaz Ali films !!
Imtiaz Ali also made Love Aj Kal 2. No idea how and why
@@shailyrohini3802 love aaj kal wasn't a bad movie v honestly... His movies are about moments.. In such a case it gets v important to choose an extraordinary actor... I feel only ranbir/ deepika/ randeep hooda could get the pulse of the Imtiaz world... Not every actor gets that world
On top of that love aaj kal 2 didn't have actors of that calibre yet ( acc to me)... A scene can be changed by an actor... I can't imagine anyone else doing a scene of ved in tamasha other than Ranbir..
Similarly, ' the andar wali zoe' scene wasn't done justice to by the actor... The scene in the dinner table in love aaj kal 2 was a disaster cos of the actress..
Imtiaz Ali films are culmination of moments and if the actor isn't great... It will not work
😀
@@amritaoxymoron1944 I ain't leaving the tea cup either😀
Rahul has a raabta with Ranbir/Imtiaz, he understands them like no one else :)
First thing first m a huge fan of u imitiaz sir, and i have seen rockstar like more than 100times, i was in first my year when this movie came, it left huge impact on me i exactly felt the rebellion of jordan, cos I was also from well to do family and had no conflict in my life since I want to be writter i was looking for one, and dats the crux of the film, so many other people whom I made to watch movie didn't liked it but for me it was the best thing available at that time, aur ho... When this song come in movie I get goosebumps even now, and please dont do over analysis , it is like dat feeling which is so wrong but felt so good, ranbir, Rahman, imitiaz u guys are simply awesome and last but not least please make sequel I want to see how jordan manages to live after heer, I want to see even darker version, by d way m not someone who comments regularly but i have to do this cos this film plays so important role in making me what m today thanku @filmcompanion for doing this, love ur work guys🤟🤟
What is rockstar without irshad Kamil lyrics, Mohit Chauhan voice and ar Rehman music ... Of course Ranbir is just wow in movie but again it's the team lead by director imitiaz ali that matters...
All members are involve in this movie are awesome ...
Pure cinema talk!!! Loved it.
Imtaiz Ali movies are ahead for it's time like tamasha, rockstar we should encourage this genius filmaker then only we can get more good movies from him
One of my fav movie Rockstar...thanks to retake n discussion on this movie
Hey since we are talking about the importance of a good edit in this film.. can we please have a conversation with some film editors?? Especially Aarti Bajaj.
This is the most insightful and informative review of this film. Although I always admired this movie, but thanks to FC team I watched Meri Pyari bindu, a hidden gem. Request you to review Dedh Ishqiya or Lootera both have a music as a character
Also, very very important roles like Chautala Bhai and Record Label Owner played by Kumud Mishra and Piyush Mishra respectively need to be given the due credits more often as they are not only filling up those story patches but characterizing who Janardan was and what Jordan became. Remember, that till the end of the very film, the frenzy of Jordan's mind is only understood and accepted by his muse Heer and the fatherly figure Chautala Bhai.
I loved the movie then..I love it now😍😍
Rockstar toxic masculinity???? Depressed drinking is toxic masculinity?? What these 2 talk about I'll never get! 🙄🙄
Right ... They're too woke.
Love the interview!!
It's not only men who liked this movie, women too liked it. I liked it. It was brilliant ❣️
This movie has my heart ❤️
Wot a amazing movies i almost watch that movie more that 20 time and i really want him to make sequal of rockstar with same cast
I could've listened to this for hours
Love Imtiaz Ali and all his movies (apart from Jab Harry Met Sejal).
Brilliant Editing by Aarti bajaj and the non-linear screenplay is awesome
Dear Rahul, you can romanticize as much as you wish BUT! Nargis was a miscast, had they signed a better actor instead it would have been a great movie.
No.. She was beautiful nd new face... Haan acting weak toh thaa
Completely agree! Miscasting the female lead was one of the biggest reasons for my disliking the film.
@@maitreyeekarambelkar9450 no look from frsh face perspective itni buri nahi thii Haan acting aur role bhi kam likha thaa
Is there a spotify podcast series of filmcompanion ? If not there should be one.
Rahul is absolutely amazing. He enjoyed the whole movie , he felt every bit of it. Whatever he spoke was so true and relatable. On the other hand , Ms.Anupama Chopra is so biased. And idk he is not at all devoted to the spiritual thing of the movie. So based.
I'm only here to see Imtiaz Ali.
And Rahul , thanks for being our voice in this interview ❤️
No matter how much I Talk About Imtiaz Ali sir and His Movies.. Its always Gonna Be Less. I would Rather take some time to Appreciate Film Companion to Representing this video Perfectly.. Also For giving Credits to Aarti Bajaj.
what is the intro theme..can anyone share please..
you have a problem with heer's character in this movie but not with margot robbie's character in Once upon a time in hollywood..though they were used in the same way....interesting.
Nargis acting suck. Margo was natural. Nargis looked very forced and in some parts cringey.
The intro theme of the FC Rektake, it is from the movie October
It boils down to - Acting. Nargis, I am sorry, but was terrible. Especially the poor dubbing
Margot was supposed to represent a bygone era of Hollywood and the life/persona of Sharon Tate, heer was simply an object for Jordan to love, desire and get mad about
Thank you for making ROCKSTAR, the best romantic movie ever made
Irshad Kamil also made a complete story arc in his songs
Loved it, Thanks Anupama ma’am!
Thnx for this I badly needed ...
Just thanks Fc
The world needed this
Please do a retake of Dear Zindagi. I think that film didn't get enough appreciation in its time, especially from you Anupama.
You guys should have got AR rahman sir
Have been putting up questions for 2 years and not even once has any of my question been asked to FC guests. 😞
Can you review Tamil Movie Maryam (2013) - one of the finest made by Bharatbala and Dhanush.
Now this is something worth appreciating.
We also have to appreciate Mohit Chauhan for the rockstar, he is fabulous in all songs...🙌
Oh my! Finally ROCKSTAR! Thank you FC.
Dear Imtiaz, i love you.
Most welcome!
Great Anupama.. You guys do this more often.. Retake with director or actor to get the insight more❤❤
Whr can I see it 2day?
Imtiyaz Ali is a magician man
Best art is born when the artiste explores the depths of his/her inner self. Forget abt the moral police infested in this society. Explore yr truth and the gold will b uneathed. Let them criticise. U say yr truth.
Although I love Rockstar very much, but I never thought of it in the way Rahul has explained 😇
Rockstar is very layered
I find Rockstar very disturbing because it critically navigates the birth and growth of an artist. And that is a difficult narrative to make and watch. And it is exceptionally done masha Allah. Kudos to Mr Ali for pulling it off and Mr Kapoor for essaying a character so intense with such integrity.
Eagerly waiting for samshera & bramhastra
C'mon guys, in your exuberance to discuss/dissect the film, you forgot to give even one unalloyed compliment to this fine filmmaker Imtiaz Ali. He is not a divisive film maker . . . He is loved very widely, and most of his film age gracefully.
Love these kind of videos 😘😍😊
Please do a retake on Befikre. For a film which Rahul has liked less unlike all the other episodes. It would be interesting to see!
