Sun, 29 May 2011 02:02:57 +0000 http://samratsharma.com/words/?p=242#comment-101261 Hai, great list! I just saw the greatness that is Razak Khan in 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan' and was looking up on him when I stumbled on to this pahe. I'm a 50s-70s guy myself, so I'm only really familiar with Sudhir from this list though I know Sharat Saxena. My favorite other guy is Moolchand, the perennial fat guy in 50s-70s movies; And the assorted lot of sometime Sudhir's friends (at least back in the 70s) like Habib, MacMohan, Hiralal, Dev Kumar, Yusuf Khan, Raj Kishore, Hercules, etc. Hai, great list!

Many of the things you say here (or allude to) really resonated (or should I say lent themselves well to my own interpretation)... like the characters bleeding into one another...colors splashed on canvas... the (often dicey) interactions between artists and their muse... the forever-silent neighbor being the stand in for the audience to the creation of art ("they do not share in the creative process, and yet enjoy the naked emotions of the artist laid bare in front of them" -- I loved this way of looking at it!)... one person (i.e. Munna) playing different roles ("that satisfy different needs. He is the dhobi, the rat killer, the muse, the confidante, the guide, the drug supplier, the boy toy, and ultimately the [singular] enabler of emotional catharsis for Shai"). And the point you make about this being the anti-OLLO... I'm able to clearly visualize how that might be. Even without having watched DG, I'm able to see what it is to <i>be</i> Mumbai...to be <i>in</i> Mumbai. On a lighter note, Jade cinema? Beach Road? I'm green with envy now! :) Samrat, this one of the most moving essays I’ve read on this film (I have yet to watch it though).
