‘Bhed Chaal’ is a Hindi proverb very much used in relation to the Hindi film industry. It means that one huge success is followed by numerous other attempts. Original ideas are at a premium in the Hindi film industry. The makers either depend on a foreign film, or a novel, or a South Indian film for a subject.
Filmmakers always want to play safe because the risk factor is always high. The distributor, while being wined and dined, gets a sales pitch, like “Zanjeer se kam nahi hamari picture…” and such. Many smaller-budget imitations of ‘Sholay’, ‘Zanjeer’, ‘Deewaar’ and other such films flooded the market. That is to say, if one action film worked, many more were certain to follow.
With the introduction of the video format followed by CDs, the trend changed to copying Hollywood films. A star was sent two videos or discs to watch, and they were...

Veteran actress and politician Jaya Prada recalled how megastar Amitabh Bachchan, in spite of being injured, completed the shooting for a song from the 1984 film ‘Sharaabi’. She added how Big B helped her during the shoot and played ghungroo on his hand despite the injured.
She said: “I remember right before we shot for this ‘Mujhe Naulakha Manga De Re’ song, Amit ji happened to injure his hand during Diwali. In a part of the song, he was playing ghungroo (ankle bells), but because he was in pain and already injured, he used to end up bleeding every time he shot for the scene. Regardless, by keeping his hand in the ice box back and forth, he finished shooting the scene. His commitment and focus are an example for every artist to learn from. I have learned so much from him.”
Jaya is known for working in Telugu and Hindi cinema.

But he stood out in his maiden film – in the crowd of six other actors jostling for screen space in the pacey thriller themed on the Goa Liberation – with the sole female revolutionary – Shahnaz Vahanvati (daughter of the comedian Agha), gunning to free the west Indian territory from Portuguese clutches.

On screen they are both blurry, moving to a sad title song, introducing the two as actors making their debuts as grownups.

Kunchacko Boban, the hero of the film, had only one role as a child that he barely remembered. He was therefore introduced in big block letters in Aniyathipravu, a movie that would be celebrated as a romantic classic in the late 90s.

Flix FlashbackDirector Blessy’s 2011 film starring Mohanlal, Jaya Prada and Anupam Kher is complex, intense and often messy, but tugs at our heartstrings.Neelima MenonFacebook/ BlessyRomance is a genre that has not been explored to its full potential in Malayalam cinema. We have had very few films that delved deep into love, romance and lust. Mostly Malayalam cinema has paid obeisance to the culmination of romance before legalising it. The aftermath of love in marriages, or more specifically how it evolves as a couple ages, has been fleetingly explored in Oru Cheru Punchiri and Minnaminginte Nurungu Vettam. They were more sterile and tender depictions that left a warm glow and hope in our hearts. But in Pranayam (2011), director Blessy goes deeper into marriage, love and desire, and attempts to understand how couples manifest heartbreak, second chances, and old age in the long run. Blessy places his narrative in the backdrop...

Veteran actress Jaya Prada, last seen in Atanu Bose’s Bengali film 'Atmajaa', is all set to make her debut on Indian television with the fiction show, 'Perfect Pati'. She will play the lead actor’s mother, Pramila Rathod, who has many shades to her character. An expressive, confident and righteous modern woman, she shows her mettle when she has to choose between right and wrong. The actress says, “Like all firsts, I’m sure it’s going to be formidable, yet a special experience. The medium of television is immensely powerful and it’s refreshing to know that such evolved and strong characters, and women-oriented stories are being written on this medium. Pramila will uniquely challenge and at the same time beautifully present the relationship of a mother with her son and daughter-in-law.” Jaya Prada insists that her character will be a complete breakaway from the saas of most Indian soaps.

KollywoodThe film tries to address every issue imaginable, not giving enough time for any of them to develop sufficiently.Rakesh MeharHaving just lost her husband in a tragic set of circumstances, Indira (Jaya Prada) returns to his ancestral home in the village of Puliyanmalai to find a way to rebuild her life. But fate has more in store, as the desperately drought-stricken village on the Tamil Nadu-Kerala border has only one possible source of drinking water – an old well on Indira’s property. In a cruel twist, however, a resurvey has transferred a portion of the land with the well to the neighbouring village. As the village residents struggle without water, there is a cabal of politicians waiting to drive them out and take over the land for profit. Indira has to fight powerful forces to give her fellow residents a chance at life. In summary, the plot of the Tamil-Malayalam bilingual Keni sounds powerful and moving, a timely and hard-hitting drama. Unfortunately, writer and director Ma Nishad, takes a strong plot backed by an amazing set of actors, including Revathy, Nasser, Parthiban, Anu Hassan and Rekha, and delivers a flat film that never quite gets off the ground. One of the biggest problems for Keni is that it wants to have its say about virtually every issue imaginable. So there are men falsely accused of terrorism and arrested under the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (Uapa), women who face sexual harassment from cops, corrupt politicians, water wars, poverty, debates about journalistic ethics and a whole lot more. By the time Nishad has delivered his sermons on all of these, there’s little time left for any of these issues to develop into any kind of dramatic conflict. The film also struggles to throw up a powerful heroine in Indira, and loses the chance to put on centre stage the important issues it is trying to deal with. So you hear nearly every other cast member talk about how man’s greed creates drought, and how the compassion of a woman helps sustain life and create an agricultural utopia in the village. But, as Indira’s story unfolds, you’re left wondering just what the revolution is that she heralds. The film also finds itself burdened by a weak performance by Jaya Prada, who adeptly conveys the vulnerability of a woman whose life is initially turned upside down, but never rises up to deliver the heroic punch the script demands of her. The rest of the cast is fairly wasted, since they are only required to appear at regular intervals with sage sermons about the hardships caused by the human propensity to draw artificially dividing lines in the ground. That doesn’t mean that there isn’t anything enjoyable in Keni. Pleasing visuals in an aesthetically captivating landscape and lilting melodies provide agreeable distractions in the film. Even the plotting shows the seeds of dramatic possibilities, with devices such as three journalists who come by different routes to the same story of Indira’s struggle. But all of these are sapped by sluggish storytelling. In the end, Keni is much like the bilingual song “Ayya Saami”, sung by Kj Yesudas and Sp Balasubrahmanyam at the start of the film. Genial and overflowing with old-fashioned platitudes, but lacking any real commitment to deal with the grainy details of reality.

It happened at a pub named Lazy Dog on a not so lazy Monday evening, when the two biggest rival queens of Bollywood Sridevi and Jaya Prada met and made up, all thanks to politician and master mediator Amar Singh. For those came in late, Jaya Prada and Sridevi, both queens from South India, who entered Hindi cinema at about the same time, were at loggerheads for more than 25 years. When they worked together in Tohfa and Maqsad in 1984 they didn't speak a word to one another on the sets. During Maqsad the film's leading men Rajesh Khanna and Jeetendra locked the two ladies together in one makeup room. When the door was opened an hour later the two ladies sat in two extreme corners staring in opposite directions. For more than two decades, let alone sharing screen space, they refused to acknowledge one another's presence in public. Until the...
