With Great Family Comes Great Responsibility! Bollywood Celebs You Might Not Know About

By Arka Maity | 632 |

If there was ever a business that thrived on nepotism, it would be Bollywood. When we talk about Bollywood star kids, the first thing that comes to our mind, is envy. We believe they're extremely lucky to be born with a silver spoon in such a family. But what we fail to understand, is that the scenario is completely different right now. Having born in a filmy background doesn't ensure a successful career. While many of them have touched the stars, found stardom overnight, and continue to rule the Industry, there are those who could not even see the daylight of their career. Despite several attempts, they could not resurrect their diminished career. Here are those people whom we're talking about.

Talk With Flag Bearers Of Hindi Cinema: The Directors

By Meghna Yadav | 634 |

By all accounts, 2016 was no great year for Hindi films, particularly if measured in terms of box office or footfalls. What was impossible to overlook however, is sheer variety of cinema that was an offer. The result of an often singular vision of directors, who boldly dared to go where few had gone before. From rousing biopics of rousing public figures to progressive thought-provoking dramas that hammered their message. From compelling recreations of true events, to engaging works of fiction. Some of the year's most interesting films reflected the passion and the commitment of the directors who did not hold back from the fear of failing. Ram Madhvani skillfully evoked the mounting tension within a hijacked flight cabin, literally transporting the viewers to the scene of the harrowing tragedy in Neerja . Nitesh Tiwari took the true story of a has-been wrestler and his two daughters and crafted an epic saga of sport, family and girl power in Dangal. Abhishek Chaubey maintained a tight grip on multiple narratives in Udta Punjab. Creating a powerful portrait of a landscape, marred by drugs. Shakun Batra minds genuine laughs especially tears from the simple premise of a family reunion, delivering an authentic portrait of human frailty in Kapoor and Sons . Ali Abbas Zafar fashioned a moving love-story, at the heart of a sport's film, shrewdly harnessing his superstar's leading man's charisma to carve a flesh and blood character in Sultan . And Karan Johar employed all the trappings of Hindi cinema, including chartbusting songs and heart-throb stars to deliver a fresh perspective on the messy business of unrequited love in ऐ दिल है मुश्किल . Between them, they made some of the best most successful or simply the most talked about films of 2016. The six film makers opened up about the steps they took, to win their actor's trust, the fears they are often crippled by and their cynicism about where the industry is headed, when they assembled to share their thoughts and perspective.
