Published by Webster

Actor Juhi Babbar says she was offered the lead role in the 2003 drama Pinjar, based on Amrita Pritam`s novel of the same name, but was replaced in the end as the makers were keen to cast a “bigger” actress. The film, directed by Chandraprakash Dwivedi, is about the struggles faced by Hindus and Muslims during the Partition of India. The movie featured Urmila Matondkar in the lead role of Puro alongside Manoj Bajpayee and Sanjay Suri. “There was a film called Pinjar, I was going to play the role that Urmila Matondkar played. I would not blame Dr Chandraprakash Dwivedi for it; he appreciates the work I do. He was starting off then, and he had said, `Whenever I make Pinjar, you will act in it,` but then a huge producer came on board, and they wanted a bigger actor,” Juhi told PTI in an interview. The director then offered her the role of Laajo, but she said no to it. The role was finally played by Sandali Sinha of Tum Bin fame. “I …

Both traditions, he said, share a deep respect for heritage and the teacher-disciple lineage. Observing that Bharatanatyam had gained wide appreciation in Japan, Mr. Muneo said many Japanese students had travelled to India to learn the dance form, while several renowned Indian dancers …

Ahmed Khan’s breakthrough as a choreographer happened with Ram Gopal Varma’s 1995 blockbuster romantic film Rangeela. One of his most memorable songs from the film was “Hai Rama,” filmed on Jackie Shroff and Urmila Matondkar.

But the way he held her, he got Urmila in one or two places. We were shooting their catfight sequence in Mehboob Studio. He had to turn and spin her. He really spun her because that’s the moment we wanted her to take a full pivot. That’s when she got a bruise on her arm,” recalls Ahmed on the inaugural edition of SCREEN Spotlight. “Jaggu da told me, ‘Bhedu, tu tension mat le. Main sab sambhal loonga.’ And I was very young to tell him to hold the girl passionately. How would a 19-year-old teach it, that too to Jaggu da? I still remember Jaggu …
