John Abraham Is Keen On Producing A Commercial Entertainer
Actor John Abraham, who once stated that he won’t produced a regular Bollywood masala film, seems open to the idea now.
In his recent interview, John revealed that he is keen on producing a massy entertainer.
He said, “I would love to produce a big masala film, and I will make sure that you are genuinely entertained by it.”
John even believes that it’s actually good for an actor to do some hardcore commercial entertainer films.
“It’s important to be a part of commercial films and to entertain people. At the end of the day, people want to laugh and enjoy,” he told.
However, John assures that he will keep producing sensible films like ‘Vicky Donor’ and ‘Madras Cafe’. He also admits that even if he produces an out-and-out commercial film, it needs to have a string story line.
John’s production house’s next film is going to be ‘Hamara Bajaj’. The film featuring Ayushmann Khurrana will be directed by Shoojit Sircar.

An Actor Should Be ‘Besharam’ In Front Of The Camera : Ranbir Kapoor
Ranbir Kapoor is right now busy with the promotional campaign of his latest film ‘Besharam’. Certainly, he is playing a shameless character in the film directed by Abhinav Kashyap.
However, Ranbir insists that being a ‘Besharam’ here is about following your heart and not to think about what others speak about you.
He says, ” ‘Besharam’ is an attitude. It’s where you listen to your heart and follow it. The tagline of this film means Babli isn’t afraid of getting insulted and he is not looking for respect.”
Also Ranbir informs that he is actually a very opposite person in real life and is quite reserved. But admits that an actor should be shameless in front of the camera and play his character without any inhibition.
“It’s very important for an actor to be ‘Besharam’ in front of the camera, unless you express yourself fully you can’t connect with them,” Ranbir states.
In ‘Besharam’, Ranbir is acting alongside his parents Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Kapoor for the first time in his career. The film featuring newcomer Pallavi Sharda as the female lead is going to be released on October 2.

SPOILT FOR CHOICE: SHAH RUKH CAN’T DECIDE WHICH FILM TO DO NEXT
Shah Rukh Khan is having trouble making up his mind over which of the half a dozen directors he wants to work with. He begins shooting for Farah Khan’s film within a fortnight but at the same time, he is also deliberating on his next project. King Khan has yet to make up his mind on what to sign post Farah’s Happy New Year.
Farhan Akhtar
As many as six directors – Anurag Basu, Anurag Kashyap, R Balki, Ashutosh Gowarikar, Maneesh Sharma and Farhan Akhtar – have given him a script hearing.
A source says, `For a while now, Shah Rukh has been busy with Chennai Express. But he has met some directors and is trying to figure out which offer to take on. He is also keen to start a couple of productions under his banner and will take a decision on it too soon. `
Anurag Kashyap
Shah Rukh Khan confirms, `Yes, I have been listening to scripts. I have met Anurag Basu and Anurag Kashyap. I heard a story from Maneesh who had made Band Baaja Baraat, Ashu (Ashutosh Gowarikar) as well as Balki.
Anurag Basu
I have also heard a story from Farhan (Akhtar). He has three scripts for me, the remaining two I will hear soon. Happy New Year will take at least six months to complete, so I will greenlight one of them. This will give the filmmaker six to eight months to prepare as well. `
Ashutosh Gowarikar
Speaking about his film production plans, he adds, `Abhi kuch hai nahi but I would like to do it. I have had no time to sit and figure it out. My next film might not be from my production house.
Maneesh Sharma
I have time in November as I don’t think we would be shooting that month for Happy New Year. This is when I will decide what to produce next. I want to make some films now. I hope that Chennai Express chal jaye so that thoda paisa mujhe mil jaye.’
MOVIE REVIEW PAY MADRAS CAFE A VISIT
Rating : * * * 1/2
Well this is not for the first time that some politico-thriller drama pertaining to counter-terrorism has made it to the silver screen. Hitherto we the Indian masses have only witnessed the kind of cine-chronicles, where the mention of ISI had been a must.
But very much in compliance to his legacy of “juggling with unconventional themes in an unconventional manner” ace director Shoojit Sircar, after movies like “Yahaan” and “Vicky Donor” has tossed out a novel cine theme pertaining to political unrest prevailing in the South Asia of 80s and 90s, the era which witnessed the assassination of one of the leading leaders of South Asia and Sri Lankan civil-war, initiated by the rebels demanding for the rights of Sri Lankan Tamils.
May be some the cine Conceptualizers in the past may have tried to explore the theme, but not in the manner Shoojit has done in “Madras Cafe”. The movie featuring John Abraham, Nargis Fakhri, Rashi Khanna, Siddharth Basu, Ajay Rathnam showcases the Sri Lankan unrest and it’s association with Indian political system. “Madras Cafe” opened with an occupancy of 35% percent at the multiplexes.
As soon as it begins, the narrative of “Madras Cafe” showcase the civil-war like situation prevailing in Sri Lanka, and the concerns of Indian Politico-bureaucratic system over the issue.
With frames rolling ahead, with an intention abrogating the rebel group of Sri Lanka and its leader Anna Bhaskaran (Ajay Ratnam) an Indian intelligence officer Vikram Singh (John Abraham) is deployed to take on a covert operation to abrogate, Anna and his man and create a scenario favorable for provincial election, which occupied the topmost slot in the priority list of Indian government and the Prime minister leading it.
While on his way to arena of unrest, Vikram meets a London based war correspondent Jaya (Nargis Fakhri). Although till landing in Jaffna, Vikram had a sole agenda of vandalizing the rebellious threats, but what follows next is a rendezvous with an unpleasant intention of the rebels or rather self proclaimed revolutionaries, of killing the former Indian Prime Minister. So, what happens next to find out watch this marvelous creation of Shoojit.
Every time when Shoojit has geared up for painting something on celluloid, most of the times he has picked up the subject matters which had been unconventional in nature. Be it, “Yahaan, Vicky Donor”, or “Madras Cafe” every time Shoojit has handpicked the plots which without complicating the spirit of the tale, ends up leaving a grand impact on the audience.
If we talk about “Madras Cafe” then despite being an amalgam of facts and fiction the story-line of “Madras Cafe” brings to life the Sri Lankan civil-war of 90s, which many of us would have only heard off, in an absolute unbiased manner. And on top of it the plot of “Madras Cafe” never tries to be preachy and just remains well within the confines of its intentions i.e. of entertaining those who have entered the cine arena.
There is no denying the fact that whenever it’s about painting the bygone era on celluloid, it had not been an easy task for any of the cine conceptualizer, but for hard task masters like Shoojit Sircar, this whole affair seems to be as easy as cake walk.
Even while handling “Madras Cafe”, Shoojit seems to be at his best, and despite Madras Cafe’s subject matter being too sensitive to handle, he along with his screenplay experts, Somnath Dey and Shubhendu Bhattachary, has tailored screenplay of “Madras Cafe” with so much conviction that it literally kept every vent well-plugged, from where melodrama could have poked in.
And besides that the best part about Madras Cafe’s screenplay is that, be it portraying the Sri Lankan civil war, depicting India’s stance on the whole affair or portraying Indian politico-bureaucratic system of that era, every thing is presented in an absolute unbiased manner which thoroughly adds on to the credibility of the onscreen offerings.
Being exposed to some of the larger than life counter-terrorism cine delights a sect of cine enthusiasts may have started fostering a notion that any politico-thriller, especially the ones dealing with something like counter-terrorism, should be full of numerous “on the edge of the seat moments” but, even on that front Shoojit has tried to keep everything well-proportionate in order to maintain the basic spirit of the movie alive.
“Madras Cafe” never gets arty or gets out of its levee. No over the top action, no unwanted patriotism-obsession it only tries to offer the entire tale in a realistic manner. First half of Madras Cafe establishes a firm base for the the upcoming cine proceedings and by the time loo break arrives you are possessed by the spell of the onscreen offerings. Besides, screenplay is well supplemented by the background score of Shantanu Moitra and sharp edged editing of Chandrashekhar Prajapati.
While being in director’s chair, Shoojit has once again proved that he is the man of conviction and knows the art of keeping everything well within the purview of his directional dexterity. Be it about creating the milieu of civil-war ridden Sri Lanka, utilizing the cine resources or extracting the best out of his protagonists, Shoojit certainly masters every art. Being Madras Cafe’s a political thriller pertaining to something which has happened in the past Shoojit could have easily added some melodramatic condiments in it in order to make it more of a commercial movie, but the adroit cine-intellectual never did it and presented it in as realistic manner it could have been. So kudos for this gem of Bollywood.
In the music department, “Madras Cafe” has nothing to offer except “Sun Raha Hai” song, but this dearth of carol dose nowhere hampers the over all appeal of the movie, which by the time of its culmination, succeeds in sending across the message it intends to.
Well as far as performances are concerned then as Major Vikram Singh in “Madras Cafe”, John has once again proved that he is director’s actor, and can conveniently slip under the skin of his character. So far some sects of cine junkies use to believe that, John is only good for the characters which involve a good amount of muscle flexing and is wooden faced when it comes to expressions, but by his performance in the movie this handsome hunk of Bollywood has proved that he has got ample amount of acting potency to do justice to any and every kind of cine character offered to him.
After “Rockstar” this had been the second cine outing for Nargis Fakhri, who played the character of a war journalist (the role apparently inspired from real life journo Anita Pratap), but unlike her previous cine performance this time, Nargis has looked more confident and appealing.
As far as performance of supporting cast of “Madras Cafe” comprising Rashi Khanna, Siddharth Basu, Ajay Rathnam et al is concerned, then each one of them looked quite apprised with the their respective characters and conveniently managed to perform their respective roles.
Probably no one can deny the fact that, only those movies are not the great ones which jolt the BO and end up reaping a grand moolah, because the real spirit of movie making lies in the fact that whatever you offer it should touch the heart of the masses.
So in the case of “Madras Cafe” which is thoroughly unconventional and up-till an extent lacks those obtruded garnishing, there are ample possibilities that despite being a magnum opus of a kind it may not succeed in setting up the grand earning benchmarks and end up being an above average BO grosser.
The final word, “Madras Cafe” is certainly chef-d’oeuvre which has tried to explore a novel subject-matter and at the same time well exhibits the honest efforts of its makers. And if we endorse the words of makers of “Madras Cafe” then probably it will be liked by a particular sect of audience, but at the same time there are ample chances that even others will love to have a look at this insightful experience. So pay ‘Madras Cafe’ a visit.
B. A PASS PASSES OTHERS FAIL WAS IT THE SEX THAT DID IT?
Belying all expectations one of the films released in the pre-Eid week actually managed to get some solid attention. Was it the sex that did it for B. A Pass? Or was it the very impressive reviews? The film by first-time director Ajay Bahl opened to expectedly low numbers but picked up with subsequent shows.
Most impressive for a film that features no major stars in the cast and is a dark brooding study of Delhi’s underbelly.
Director Ajay Bahl who went through a period of unbearable financial and emotional struggle to get the film in theatres sounds like a relieved man. ‘I almost gave up at one time. Glad I hung on. The appreciation has been very reassuring. It proves I am on the right track.’
Chennai Express coming Friday would no doubt put a brake on B A Pass. Ajay Bahl is prepared for that. ‘We knew all along we were coming close to a juggernaut that could mow us down. But now that the film’s collections have shown a jump of 35-40 percent, we are hoping audiences would want to see something else too along with Chennai Express.’
As expected the other films released this week are unimitigated disasters. Rajesh’s interestingly scripted Chor Chor Super Chor never stood a chance.
Amrit Sagar’s Rabba Main Kya Karoon is a setback for debutant Akash Chopra who comes from an impressive lineage (he is the well-known filmmaker and television producer Ramanand Sagar’s grandson).
Akash is the second star-son in two weeks after Rati Agnihotri’s son Tanuj Virwani last week to face a flop debut.
But both the newcomers are confident, spirited and optimistic. In fact Akash Chopra is also a musician. He has composed two of the songs in Rabba Main Kya Karoon and had done the entire background music for his brother Amrit Sagar’s previous directorial vehicle the war saga 1971.
All these films have Chennai Express to deal with next week. Plus Bhaag Milkha Bhaag with a tax exemption in many states has got a new lease of life.
