The End of "A Film love..."

Now, Indian cinema facing a major challenge as the change seems appearing in the audience regarding "what deemed to be the "True subject" for a Film to be screened. here ,I want to share that for this major credit goes to the Globalization, which made open everything easy on finger tips as to say that "Realities" are no more the matters of hide or manipulation in a "Glossy” mediums ;here we can take Film so, to alienate the majority of audience from getting their 'Realities."

For this we can take so many recent Flops of the movies either in Bollywood or Telugu regional movies. Now, such movies are running well which made of 1/4 of budget of flop movies with Superstars and high technical values but no "True subject" or in general terms "Story”. For Example, we take the low budget movie” HYDERABAD NAWAABS" with untrained, unknown artists and with technical crew who came into field to prove their mere-skills just by an 'opportunity' came in. It was celebrating 150 days function in Hyderabad city itself; which was a mirage for so many Producers, Directors and Superstars in recent past.

After ONE MONTH, the Superstar films, i.e. Chiranjeevi's Stalin and Nagarjunas's Boss were released but relegated to three theatres.Nawabs,which was released in just two theatres , had been spread across not only the Andhra Pradesh but also to Karnataka and Maharastra by sustaining stiff competition from big star films which, generally, said to have had the high technical standards.

Here interesting point is that Nawabs story was based on real life Experiences, Observations usually occurs at bottom of the society; particularly in Hyderabad old city; mixed with typical accent and multi flavored cultures and tastes. If we compare with "mainstream Film love story”, and finds no way... Even to think of. Though it has given a big shock to the Film Industry, was acclaimed and revered by the audience which manifested in the growth of screening theatres.later, It was ready to sustain the storms called "DON" and "JAAN-E-MANN" of both Sharukh and Salman khans. Here what we have to observe is, what made this mere film to have had sustained even with low technical standards compared to Bollywod and Tollywood movies.

Being this: Can't it be interesting to know as which latent Filmic elements and its theoretical approaches made this film into (Hyderabadnawabs)...A great success?

In my next articles,I'd try to find out and interpret the visual grammar involved in the Films and the way it would deal with "Realities" and also with concerned Film theories usually represented by in the film...
