avant garde blogging
bloggers meet director is avant garde in bollywood blogging.
today i am very happy for my debut film "PRAAN JAYE PAR SHAAN NA JAYE" as it is going to be a part of such a wonderful idea.
my struggle of six years to become a film director in bollywood is a story in itself,and making of my debut film is another.it wasn't smooth.
also film recieved very strong and critical reviews from bollywood critics when it was released in may 2003.
when i got introduced to blogging and discovered bollywood among bloggers,i decided to be a part of this new world and make new friends.
and when i requested my blogger friend michael to review the film he pleasantly surprised me by taking such an initiative.
now i am looking forward to some fresh reviews.
this initiative will add a new page to the biography of the film.
cheers!!!

This seems like quite an interesting idea if the effort is sustained over a period of time, to give the idea time to grow and become popular... would be a good interaction I suppose..
Hi Boss

Sanjay
I am yet to see your movie, and I would be glad to write on it once I get to see it. And its sad that i missed the screening of STRINGS at Trivandrum. I could even have got to meet u!!
:(
Another time, maybe!
:)
nameste velu.
my film can be available in your town,you may try.
dvd of strings will be released very soon,and i will expect your reviews on it.
missed to wish you happy onam...
cheers.
jhaji.
Sure Sanjay!
I shall see if I can grab a copy soon.
:)
interesting!...I've never met a film person who blogs...a first for me...I hope everything about your craft works well and that you find the same "thrill" i did in blogosphere!...there's nothing quite like it!..
Hey Jha,
Well...wat do i say?? Mr.Director?? Anyways first things first , thanx for dropping into my blog n leaving a comment too....:-)
About this movie....i havent seen it yet...but then if u have anything to do with it then am game for some popcorn n this pic....will surely watch it n let u know wat i think....am sure my hubby wud love to watch it coz of the "Mahesh Manjrekar" factor!!!
But as of now...just a question....why are the movie names so long these days??? Any particular reason for it? U know u shud take some lite topics like this n rite on that, that wud make a fun read....so wish u all the best in life....
Cheers!!! Amigos!!!
Hey, are you connected to Prakash Jha by any chance?? Anyways, all the best.
U sure r into some interesting stuff here...Know how u would feel now after the long and hard work is gng to come alive...I read the story line I am impressed..It is very much a day to day matter n it is nice to see such movies being made rather than the typical or lets say oh way too familiar hero singing around and the movie being more self centered n being made more for the songs than the movie in its enterity...This has a strong presence n all the best for the same! :)
Just to say hello to you.
There used to be an old movie called Pran jaaye par vachan na jaaye. Jo bhi jaaye , film flop na jaaye.

Dear Sanjay,
Via another blog I landed in your domain this night. I am a non-desi Bollywood fan who is always looking for new films, new directors and new actors. Reading the intruiging reviews on your film makes me very curious and I'd love to see it. However, as I am not living in India, and won't be visiting India for the next six months probably, I was wondering whether I could order a VCD/DVD copy online somewhere.
Good luck with Blogging. Love your About Me-text :)
Love, Sanne
