Rangeela Re by Tanmay Dubey Pdf

Life is colorful isn’t it? It feels like the arrival of multiple moods, various emotions, umpteen thoughts, countless assumptions and thoughtless situations occur out of nowhere, each representing a different shade of colour. But we never realise the importance of that colour. For us, it’s only a situation. Similarly, every colour has its own significance but mind you….it can be a boon or a curse at the same time. Rangeela Re depicts the story about these colourful situations in the life of our main protagonist Mayank Mathur, aka ‘Mickey,’. An above-average looking young unmarried man in his early thirties, who works in a Media house and comes across seven exciting characters and circumstances. Just like the ‘vibgyor’ colours are interconnected, these incidences and characters too are connected with Mickey’s life radically and irrationally. Every character in these stories has two perspectives, just like a coin with two sides. Will these colors prove to be a boon or a curse for Mickey? Will his past pay him a visit in the present and destroy his future? Let us see what happens…

S.D. Burman by Anirudha Bhattacharjee,Balaji Vittal Pdf

SD, or Sachin Dev Burman, the man who gave Hindi film music its grammar, is perhaps the most enigmatic figure in Indian cine history. As the young scion of the Tripura royal family, SD struck out into the world of cinema and popular music. The early years were difficult, professionally and personally. His unconventional choice of profession and marriage to a 'commoner' caused his family to ostracize him, and his formal training was not enough to stave off rejections. This well-researched biography is both a tribute to a great artist, and a deep inquiry into what made his music great. Going well beyond merely listing his greatest songs, it explores hitherto unknown stories about the creation of each gem: 'Mera sundar sapna beet gaya' (Do Bhai, 1948); 'Thandi hawaein' (Naujawan, 1951); 'Yeh raat yeh chandni' (Jaal, 1952); 'Babu samjho ishaare' (Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi, 1958); 'Meet na mila re mann ka' (Abhiman, 1973), and more. The book is packed with insights into SD's life, work and his astute understanding of Hindi cinema. Despite the fact that he was an outsider who spoke little Hindi or Urdu, SD was the man who introduced Sahir Ludhianvi to the world, and the one who gave Kishore Kumar's musical brilliance its due. His readiness to adapt to modern sounds and techniques, his unwavering faith in Lata Mangeshkar's virtuosity, his closeness to Dev Anand that was seen as nepotism, charges of plagiarism-S.D. Burman: The Prince-Musician provides unmatched insight into both the genius of one of India's most significant composers and a crucial aspect of its glorious cinematic history. An essential addition to every film music aficionado's library.

The Dev Anand Story by Dr. Govind Sharma IAS Retd. Pdf

A must-read for Dev Anand fans and students of film history “A broken nose sometimes makes a great boxer,” said the evergreen Bollywood star Dev Anand after his movie Ishq Ishq Ishq did not work at the box office. In his sixty-five years of unchallenged dominance as the most-loved Hindi film star, Dev Anand gave us several memorable hits like Guide, Taxi Driver, Hum Dono, Johny Mera Naam, and Hare Rama Hare Krishna. He was not only an exceptionally handsome and stylish hero. His ‘man of the future’ philosophy is worth emulating by persons of all generations. He neither celebrated his successes nor lamented over his failures. A Karma Yogi, in the true sense of the term, he produced, directed, and acted in a lead role in a movie at the age of eighty-eight, which is without parallel in the history of Bollywood. The book attempts to analyse why his philosophy of life is a source of inspiration for all. It also gives a detailed filmography from Hum Ek Hain to Charge Sheet, with a separate chapter on Guide, and a special write-up on his genius brother Vijay Anand.

Talking especially of Aamir films when we talk about Jo Jeeta Vo Sikandar; Lagaan; 3 Idiots; Tare Zameen Par; Rang De Basanti; PK; Dangal and of course how can we forget the popular TV Series Satyamev Jayate; Aamir picked up those sensitive issues which remained usually untouched or unexplored before the society in terms of cinema and he dealt with those social issues in his TV program Satyamev Jayate which is already present in our society and our homes long back and still survive. His program on such critical issues gave light of awareness and when youth saw these true stories; victims; conditions and consequences; they came to know directly or indirectly that it is happening in our homes too. How Aamir grew his struggles and experiences that he has seen thus far; and how he has evolved into an actor; person and how his films create awareness among the people of society and create an impact too remain all about the scripting of this book. This book is not about the person; it is about the way of thinking and urge to serve something to society and take those brave steps which can be lethal too for an actor.
