AAJ-KAL KA MANORANJAN

First of all my sincere tribute to Steve Jobs(1955-2011) and Jagjit Singh (1941-2011)

a tribute to the most wonderful ghazal singers of all time.
One of my fav. Jagjit Singh ghazal





Seriously what is happening to the Indian movie scene? Ek ke baad ek South movies ke "remakes". Damn Salman Khan for starting this fad. Right from his Wanted to Force. Even the music director of Force didnt tried to create fresh tunes for the remake, he just got the lyricist to write hindi lyrics on his already made tamil tunes and got some Hindi singers to croon out.

Dude take a example from A.R.Rahman, he actually took pains to write some original score for Hindi version of Ghajini.

Aur aage....in filmo ka action bhi english movies se copied hai yaar. Dabangg action in opening sequence is shot to shot copy from Jason Statham`s Transporter, Wanted copied from Ong Bak.
Yaar hadd hoti hai copy karne ki bhi.

Pehle movie tab hit hoti thi jab theatres mein kam se kam 15 hafte chalti thi..... aaj 5 din chal jaye toh hit declare kar dete hai....

It is said ki RA.One has made up 90% of its production cost already, and it will be released on Diwali.
Here is the most viewed song of the movie by Akon. CHAMMAK CHALLO




Anyways, there are only handful of filmmakers making meaningful or watchable cinema right now. Some of them are Vishal Bharadwaj, Raju Hirani, Sudhir Misra etc.

Now to the idiot Box. Yaar yeh toh poora ka poora bigad gaya hai. Iss desh ke culture ke thekedaar vaise toh bahut shor machate hai, par Bigg Boss, emotional Atyachar jaise bakwaas programs ke against koi kuch kyun nahi bolta.

BTW, it also shows the same lack of originality in TV world also. ek baar kisine koi Reality show dekh liye kisi desh ka toh bass, jaldi se uski copy maaro, chahe wo apne logon mein fit baithe na baithe....par copy zaroor karo....

Late night slot mein ek show aata hai Maaryada, jiske plot mein homosexuality, extra marital affair, sab kuch hai jo apna desh accept nahi karta...par chatkare leke log dkehte zarur hain...

Well extramarital affair pe Ekta Kapoor ka Balaji Telefilms ki neev padi hai, Hum Paanch jaise show ke bawjood... Ekta Kapoor ko pehchaan mili Kyunki Saas bhi kabhi bahu thi aur Kasuati se...jismein yeh sab masala jam ke tha.

Par apna samaz itna hippocrite hai ki ek taraf din mein uske against bayan baazi hoti hai aur raat mein wahi log ghar jaake serial dekhte hain....

God I miss the old days....Dekh Bhai Dekh...Shriman Shrimati, Khichdi,Nukkad, etc...
Chitrahaar, Potli baba ki, Jungle book, Tom and Jerry, Talespin yeh sab cartoon the.... aaj kal ke jaapanese cartoon...cartoon kam, merchandise bechne ke natak zyada hai....

Even WWE was good in those days... ;-)


Baaki agle time likhuga.....jaane se pehle meri sabse zyada favorite ghazal for you people...
R.I.P Jagjit Sahab...
