When the doyen of Indian documentary filmmaking, Anand Patwardhan, who has been making films for half a century now, says casually that he has not “evolved”, it can be quite a shocker.
For someone, who has made internationally acclaimed documentaries including ‘Bombay: Our City’ (‘Hamara Shahar’) (1985), ‘In Memory of Friends’ (1990), ‘In the Name of God'(‘Ram ke Nam’) (1992),’Father, Son, and Holy War'(1995), ‘A Narmada Diary'(1995), ‘War and Peace’ (2002), ‘Jai Bhim Comrade’ (2011), and ‘Reason’,with virtually all his filmsfacing censorship, and eventually being cleared after legal action, it can be said that they are relevant even today.

Check under most any post relating to the recently released trailer for Luc Besson’s “Dogman,” and you’ll find one, if not several responses riffing, to various degrees of enthusiasm, on the theme of “Omg, what if ‘Joker’ but with dogs?” That rhetorical question can now be answered, following this numbskulled nonsense movie’s inexplicable Venice Competition premiere, with a resounding “If only.” The bludgeoningly obvious, creatively inert, deathly dull tale of a cross-dressing misfit in a wheelchair who favors canine company over that of humans, it is scarcely fit to lap from the same water bowl as Todd Phillips’ controversial Golden Lion winner. Even those who didn’t much like “Joker” have to admit that it did not actively treat its audience as if they were so brain-dead that everyone left feeling about 30 Iq points dumber than when they went in.

For Priyadarshi, In The Name Of God is undoubtedly a large vehicle. It allows him to scream, puke, mouth curse words, and break away from the hero’s friend stereotype in one go, but it’s not entirely a vehicle that has all of its parts in place. And its brakes don’t work.

Prolific documentarian Anand Patwardhan’s 1992 work “In The Name of God” is undoubtedly one of the most important films in the history of Indian cinema. Although it is the recipient of several national and international accolades like the National Film Award for Best Investigative Documentary, Patwardhan’s masterpiece has been routinely censored by specific religious organisations and the government.
“In The Name of God” is a scathing indictment of the machinations of communal hatred in India, documenting the irreverent carnage that such sentiments usually leave behind. It follows the events leading up to the 1992 demolition of the Babri Masjid in Ayodhya by a terrorist group of Hindu nationalists. Patwardhan interrogates the indoctrinated, bloodthirsty mobs as well as the terrified, helpless onlookers who are caught in the crossfire of a meaningless ideological battle. The documentary systematically unravels the laughable myth of the “secular” Indian state by depicting instances of state-sanctioned genocide and violence against marginalised communities.

Mumbai, Dec 20: Seasoned Indian actor Naseeruddin Shah says "we are too happy with ourselves" but the future belongs to Saarc nations like Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal and Sri Lanka in terms of good cinema.
Naseer, who has been part of Pakistani director Shoaib Mansoor and director duo Meenu Gaur and Farjad Nabi's "Khuda Kay Liye" and "Zinda Bhaag", respectively, says the political relations between the two neighbouring nations may not be ideal, but the commoners on the other side of the border are "curious about us (Indians)" and "look at us with admiration".

New Delhi, Feb 13: Pakistani singer Mustafa Zahid says his song "Hum jee lenge" was initially a break-up song "Kaise jiye", which had a connection to his personal life.
The 30-year-old, who did songs like "To phir aao", "Khuda kay liye" and "Teri yaadon se", never wanted to complete "Hum jee lenge", which now features in Vishesh Bhatt's directorial debut "Murder 3".
"The story of the song is not something that I planned," said the singer who wrote the song for someone, "then I could not complete it," Zahid told Ians.

"It felt like a movie" was both a sickening and apt descriptor for the September 11, 2001, attacks. The apocalyptic scene was pegged to a part of our consciousness that isn't supposed to intersect with reality, one that's safely tucked away in a world where the human appetite for destruction can be indulged free of any qualms. The collision of these two worlds rippled our cultural fabric, and over the last decade, we've accounted for it.
Here enters our compendium of how ours and other cultures have responded to 9/11. It's meant to be a snapshot, not a comprehensive study. But though the forums are unrelated, its a strangely fluent cross-section of human reaction, from Bollywood's surprisingly lengthy 9/11 film history to the depths of Urban Dictionary.
The colors on the graphic denote what level of alert our country was on at the time, providing a sense of a nation guided by voices of fear.

New Delhi, Sep 9: It's been a decade since the attack on New York's World Trade Centre took the world by storm, and filmmakers and documentary-drama makers have since then churned out about 40 works. Of them, Pakistani filmmaker Shoaib Mansoor's 'Khuda Kay Liye' and the documentary 'Fahrenheit 9/11' seem to have earned maximum appreciation.
A multi-layered film, Mansoor's 'Khuda Kay Liye' highlighted the clash between moderate Muslims and the fundamentalists in Pakistan. It also showed how Muslims are viewed with increasing suspicion in the West after 9/11. The well-made film,.

“You cannot really reprehend mediocrity, you can only regret it. But you can and must condemn the gifted filmmaker who has it in him to combine artistic integrity with a consciousness of dual responsibility to the viewing public and to the man who backs him but who yet keeps postponing the great film ….and yet compromise just this little , just this once” –Satyajit Ray
Stating the obvious, not many Pakistani films get to be exhibited on silver screens in India. Stating the even more obvious, these are bad times for local cinema in Pakistan.
