Book excerpt: ‘साहब बीबी गुलाम’ कलकत्ता शहर के बसने, बढ़ने और फैलने का दिलचस्प आख्यान है। इस उपन्यास के रूप में बँगला कथाकार विमल मित्रा ने एक ऐसी कृति प्रस्तुत की है जो अपने आपमें कथाशिल्प का स्थापत्य है। इसमें कलकत्ता के बहुरंगी अतीत को उसके विकासशील वर्तमान से जोड़ने का एक सुंदर और कलात्मक प्रयोग किया गया है। इस कृति में कथाकार ने उन राजा-रईसों के वैभव-विलास और आमोद-प्रमोद का चित्राण किया है जो कभी आलीशान महलों में बड़ी शान-ओ-शौकत से रहा करते थे। साथ ही इसमें उनके निरीह सेवकों-गुलामों की विवशता का भी हृदयस्पर्शी चित्राण है जो दिन-रात उनकी सेवा में लगे रहते हैं। सामंती परिवार का वह भीतरी परिवेश इसमें पूरे प्रभाव के साथ उभरा है जिसमें अपरिमित सुखों के बीच अलग-अलग तरह के दुख पलते रहते हैं। पूरी कथा ओवरसियर भूतनाथ की जुबानी सामने आती है जो वर्तमान का संवाहक होकर भी अतीत की यादों में खोया रहता है। अंतःपुरवासिनी ‘छोटी बहू’ उसके ही मन पर नहीं, पाठकों के मन पर भी छायी रहती है।

Download or read book Guru Dutt: An Unfinished Story written by Yasser Usman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2021-01-07 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guru Dutt’s filmography has some names which have long been considered as some of the best films to have ever been made in India. His masterpiece Pyaasa (1957) was featured in TIME magazine's All-Time 100 Movies list in 2005. His films are still celebrated and revered by viewers, critics and students of cinema the world over, not only for their technical brilliance but also for the eternal romanticism and their profound take on the emptiness of life and the shallowness of material success. He was Indian cinema’s Don Juan and Nietzsche rolled into one. But while much has been said and written on the film-maker and his art, little is known about his life behind the screens. This richly layered account takes a deep dive into the journey of a lonesome, troubled genius who was endlessly being pulled in contrary directions throughout his life. A child prodigy, who actually began as a dancer learning from the great Uday Shankar, an unconventional film-maker who desired commercial success without ever compromising on artistic satisfaction, a self-made entrepreneur who hated numbers yet single-handedly ran a film studio juggling the roles of a producer, director, actor, financier — all this while struggling silently with a deeply troubled personal life, at the centre of which was his tumultuous marriage with Geeta Dutt. Guru had it all — love, family, money, fame and validation from his audience. His untimely death by suicide, that too after multiple failed attempts, had shocked the entire film industry. But what led to that fateful night when he tipped his hat and said his final goodbye? Best-selling Bollywood biographer Yasser Usman explores the man and the myth Guru Dutt in this definitive biography of a nonconformist star, uncovering the extraordinary lives of the rich and the famous as well the incredible toll it takes on the emotional and mental health of a human being. With cameos from close friends and colleagues Dev Anand, Waheeda Rehman, Johnny Walker, S.D. Burman and most significantly Dutt’s sister, noted painter Lalitha Lajmi, a short but compassionate, ambitious and ultimately tragic life reveals itself in the pages of this book. This is a gripping, meticulously researched and moving portrait of an unfinished life — a tale of unrequited love, unresolved relationships and unmatched cinematic talent.

He Followed It Up With Mr And Mrs &Rsquo;55, Pyaasa And Kaagaz Ke Phool&Mdash;All Veritable Treatises On The Art Of Scriptwriting&Mdash;Before Donning The Director&Rsquo;S Mantle With Great Success In Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam.

Download or read book Conversations with Mani Ratnam written by Baradwaj Rangan and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2013-12-10 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mani Ratnam’s Nayakan is among Time’s ‘100 Best Movies Ever’; and Roja launched A.R. Rahman. This book, unique to Indian cinema, illuminates the genius of the man behind these and eighteen other masterly films. For the first time ever, Mani Ratnam opens up here, to Baradwaj Rangan, about his art, as well as his life before films. In these freewheeling conversations—candid, witty, pensive, and sometimes combative—many aspects of his films are explored. Ratnam elaborates in a personal vein on his choice of themes, from the knottiness in urban relationships (Agni Natchatiram) to the rents in the national fabric (Bombay); his directing of children (Anjali); his artful use of songs; his innovative use of lighting; as also his making of films in Hindi and other languages. There are fond recollections of collaborations with stalwarts like Balu Mahendra, P.C. Sreeram, Thotta Tharrani and Gulzar, among many others. And delectable behind-the-scenes stories—from the contrasting working styles of the legendary composer Ilaiyaraaja and Rahman to the unexpected dimensions Kamal Haasan brought to the filming of Nayakan to what Raavan was like when originally conceived. In short, like Mani Ratnam’s films, Conversations surprises, entertains and stimulates. With Rangan’s personal and impassioned introduction setting the Tamil and national context of the films, and with posters, script pages and numerous stills, this book is a sumptuous treat for serious lovers of cinema as well as the casual moviegoer looking for a peek behind the process.
