What is the name of the Hindi movie that featured the song "Neele Neele Ambar Par"? Who was the singer of that song?

 The above mentioned song is from the movie Kalaakar(1983). It was an official Hindi remake of Tamil hit film Payanangal Mudivathillai (1982).

Despite being a box-office dissapointment the film gave Bollywood one of its most immortal romantic songs.

Neele Neele Ambar Par is rendered by Kishore Kumar and composed by Kalyanji-Anandji. Kishore Kumar’s soft whispering vocals perfectly mimics the gentle breeze and the nocturnal setting of the track.

The soothing guitar solo is played by veteran musician Sunil Kaushik. Indeevar, who is the lyricist of the song has used rich metaphors comparing natural elements such as mountains, sea and blue sky to symbolise profound romantic longing and a desire for a soulmate. There is also a female version of the song which is rendered by Sadhana Sargam.

The film starred Manoj Kumar’s son Kunal Goswami and Sridevi. It was a failed debut for Kunal Goswami. During the pre-trial itself Manoj Kumar felt that the film will not connect with the audience and suggested to change some scenes. However his suggestion was not taken seriously and he did not want to bother the director.

The tragedy-romance film was a box-office failure but the song remains an iconic cultural touchstone in Indian Cinema.

Why did Nasiruddin Shah never watch his own acted Bollywood movie "Karma"?

 As an actor Naseerudin Shah is known for intense and art-driven cinema. He has always been critical for mainstream cinema and often showed lack of interest for the same.

Karma released in 1986 and in the late 80s Naseer was balancing between high-octane commercial films and parallel cinema.

However, he stated that he never watched Karma despite starring in it as it was too long and he couldn't sit through the entire movie.

Besides this, there was also a fallout between him and director Subhash Ghai. Naseer agreed to do the film after being promised significant screen-time alongside Dilip Kumar.

However during production, he was upset to find out that many of his scenes with Dilip Kumar were filmed separately using stand-ins.

Karma is the only film directed by Subhash Ghai with Naseerudin Shah as the part of the starcast.

Which movie character is very famous but unknown?

 This woman only appears for 18 seconds in each film. If you've ever seen a Columbia film, you've probably seen her. If you're a fan of her films, I'm sure you recognize her face well.

What are some awesome movie facts & details?

 The Black hole in Interstellar wasn't just good CGI. The VFX team accidentally created real science that even physicists had never seen before.

We all know how obsessed Christopher Nolan is when it comes down to accuracy in his movies. For the Black hole scene in Interstellar, he brought in Kip Thorne a world renowned physicist who would go on to win the Nobel prize in 2017.

To make the scene as realistic as possible, Thorne got to work and sent the VFX team equations about how light bends around a spinning black hole. They created a new software called DNGR to run the simulation. The process was so complex that each single IMAX frame took over 100 hours to render.

When it was complete, Thorne revealed that even he was seeing a fast spinning black hole in ultra high definition for the very first time.

The VFX team had accidentally made a major contribution to astrophysics. Their simulation revealed spacetime warping into shapes nobody had ever seen before.Their findings were so significant that they were published in two peer reviewed scientific journals. They also won the Oscar for Best visual effects that year.

What is your review of the trailer of the Bollywood movie Marjaavaan?

 From the makers of the iconic film Gunda,

Comes their next film Marjaavan.

Wait! What?

Both movies aren’t related?

Sorry, those brilliant dialogues gave me the impression that it was from the makers of Gunda.

Let me restart it.

---

He’s our hero.

He’s too good, too strong, too angry and too Bhojpuri.

Wait! It’s not a Bhojpuri movie?

Sorry. Those fights made me think that it is a Bhojpuri movie.

The hero is so strong that the goons start flying even without him touching them.

Bhagawat ke liye ijaazat ki zarurat nahi......Rok sake sher ko utni toh kutton mein taqat nahi.

- Siddharth Malhotra, 2019

So he punches the goons while delivering punch dialogues. And then, he sees trouble, I meant the heroine.

And there’s instant love, just like that?

Oh! And a song too.

Jaan toh vo bhi leta ha, aur khud hi marham ban jata hai. Ishq hai main marjaavaan!

- Tara Sutaria, 2019

And every movie has villain, this too.

Enters Riteish Deshmukh. He’s a midget, with poor graphics.

Pata hai kameenepan ki height kya hai? Teen foot

- Riteish Deshmukh, 2019

It is 2019, and Bollywood is unable to get midgets right.

That should make you wonder how Kamal Haasan got it right 30 years ago.

Anyways, moving ahead.

Now the fight between the hero and the villain begins, while delivering dialogues.

Main badla nahi lunga sir, main inteqaam lunga

-Siddharth Malhotra, 2019

So they fight… while defying gravity.

Enters Abhishek Bachchan:

What? He’s not Abhishek?

Sorry again!

Enters Rakul Preet Singh:

Sher ke muh mein gardan dalega na, no nahi bach payega.

- Rakul Preet Singh, 2019

Main maaroonga mar jaayega dubaara janam lene se daar jaayega.

-Siddharth Malhotra, 2019

Aaand….that’s it. That is the end of the trailer.

Oh! And he kills the heroine too.

Starring:

• Riteish Deshmukh, who can act.
• Siddharth Malhotra, who still can’t act.
• Tara Sutaria, who just can’t act.
• Rakul Preet Singh, who also can’t act.

• Javed Akhtar, renowned poet from the 18th century
• Navjot Singh Sidhu, ex-cricket, part-time politician, part-time laugh enthusiast and a full-time shaayar
