DESAM


i have few questions to the readers before they read this article.

1. do u think about your country and its growth

2. why you people celebrate independece day and republic day and i bet many of our indian are still not clear about the two adtes AUGUST 15TH AND JAN 26TH.
3. as the world knowzs indians stay outside india in places like US,UK,EUROPE even in antarcitica but they dont like india, then why they present themselves as indians and i dont find any reason why they attend to indian associations and parties in states and in other countries.

remebering the native place for date of birth proof and remember the nation name to fill the nationality block in your job applications and many people remember their expiry date of the visa but they never try to recollect the history of india.

i dont ask them or request them to think about the country or to serve but i expect them not to pretend that they are serving the country and INDIA now is not in a state to be served.

when i was in seventh i read in my english text book that INDIA IS A DEVELOPING COUNTRY and when i passed 10th my teacher gave a lecture starting with the slogan INDIA IS A DEVELOPING COUNTRY and few days back i found an indan settled in london saying " you know india is still developing " and he laughed as if INDIA never develope unless he goes to the country.

very few know that it's developed and far better than many countries in the world.
according to me IT,SOFTWARE ect etc took peolpe to a state where they think they are the most intelligent people in the world.

DESAM my title of the article will suit for a MANI RATNAM'S film than for my lecture.

very few films take the oportunity to select the country to be the main subject.
RANG DE BASANTHI
LAGAAN
SWADESH

3 hours of film will makie popele get very excited and till they come out of the theater they are indians and after having a fag and a cup of tea they are still indians. many film producers think twice when they are asked to invest on a subject about country or freedom struggle or to describe the history of india. i dont see any mistake in those producers stepping back to invest money because WE THE PEOPLE show intrest and will be more excited about the dress color of MALLIKA or some other film actress than about the constitution of india. these days we need a love story in a film like ASHOKA or MANGAL PANDEY to desribe about the great kings of our country. i dont say any one to care about india and i pleed them to stay back there because life is worst if they come out of himalayas.i found many communities and many social organisations surving in the name of INDIA and according to them india is an underdeveloped country and now they are the people who are developing it.

the world feels pround to have a country like INDIA which has many religions, states, languages but we quarell each other and fight for their own religious rights with board written HUMAN RIGHTS. i have a question, what would be the position if A RIGHT TO KILL was written in our constitution or A GUN was given to a farmer.
a farmer kills his land lord with gun and a land lord kills the head of the village from there it continues till INDA is dead after that a film will be realesed and this time its sharukhs turn, RED CHILLIES ENT "REBIRTH OF INDIA" and a software engineer will watch the film on his so called friday night corporate show and a doctor watches the film in his day off and a layer on his court holiday.


i think people who read this still remember INDIA and if they forget and try to recollect i request them to forget.


i promiss, i will make "DESAM" on the big screen which makes people to see the MAP OF INDIA after going home and this time you will see a slogan DEVELOPED INDIA.

MY EXPERIENCE WITH AN ACTOR


Mr.PRANEETH is my close friend and in a very short time we became very close which made to make "SUFFERING SAINT" my first short film.

without having any knowledge how to make a film, myself and my friend SAI PRAKASH (producer and cinematographer for the film) took a big step of making a film.
SAI sent few pics of PRANEETH to my mail and i was just thinking what reply should i give and i relied him that i recieved the pics and will call him in the evening.
the first time i saw him i thought he doenst suit the charecter in the film but his body language exactly suited the charecter. i observed him for an hour when we had a coffe and the way he spoke to me about his life and personal feelings, i was impressed by his behaviour and i kept all other aspects or the qualities that an actor should have and decided to make a film for him.
now its my dudty to make him act and praneeth was not infront of the camera till that time. so its a big task for me to describe him the story and it took me many hours to confirm that he understood the story, still i have a doubt whether he got my points or he made the film because he is close to me.
we had many trials and day by day he got confidence and it helped me to put 100% effort to make the film.
when i saw him infront of the camera he looked very handsome and i saw the enjoyment in him while he ws in the set. he was very convinced by my way of narrating the story and i think he liked the heroine as well, he did a good job.
then i understood that any one can become an actor and how important the role of a director in the film is. the way the director narrates the story and the charecter so that the actor or actress understands it clearly and she or he plays the exact role which the filmaker thinks in his mind.
then i thought it was good for me to take him in the film which helped me to learn how to relate a person beside me to the charecter in my mind.

it was a good experience for me and as well as for him, i hope i will make another film with him and this time espicially for him.

u can find the links of the film at the end of the site and even the film story as well.

OM SHANTHI OM


i never speak about any film and i never write anything against a film because i think i am not the right person to judge a film.
yest i saw the most awaited film of the year "OM SHANTHI OM".I might have enjoyed the film if i would have seen it in INDIA but i had a very bad experience with Shah Rukh Khan's OM SHANTHI OM in LONDON.before the film i had lots of expectations on the film before its screening and the crowd in the theater made me more curious but the film became a disaster and a worst film i have ever seen. its all about a film which starts its making in 1970's and stops and SRK was a junior artist in that film and as the story goes onn heroine dies,SRK dies and he is again born in a film stars family and becomes a hero and recollects his past and you all can expect the film.
he again starts the shooting of the old film and releases in 2007 it is titled as
OM SHANTHI OM.
There is no fault in the storyline and the producer of the film GOWRI KHAN never compramised in the making.
i would be very happy if it was another KARAN ARJUN but we cant compare this flick with any other film.
Shah Rukh Khan can make better film if he comes out of the so called family in the bollywood.people got bored seeing RANI,KAJOL,TABU,AKSHAY KUMAR,SHILPA SHETTY in a song and it has become a ritual in SRK films, dancing with all the heroines of his old films. it looks good and the screen will be full of lights only once or twice but every time makes a boring song in the film. the director showed many good points in the film about the industry and kapoors family business but at last she made fun of bollywood and tollywood by showing how they make film. i felt it as a big draw back for the film. an actor should respect another and a director should respect other films irrespective of the money those films make.
if there is no SRK in this film i can sign in a blank cheque that there is no OM SHANTHI OM.

the film started very well as a recollection of the past then it slowly became a boring one and as the time passed it became funny at last the climax of the film made it a flop.

a dance director should do her job, a singer should sing, a dancer should dance and an actor should act all the above roles should be directed by a person who has grip in the story and screen play.
i think OM SHANTHI OM is not taken seriously by the actor and the producer and even the director.

INTERVAL!!!!!


15 min of interval in indian films, i think we can make another good short film or a documentry in that time.
why we need an intervalfor our films and i had a very bad experience in that break.
how a director decides when to give a break for the audience and what he expects the public to do in the break.
think about his film and if so do any one really bother abput the first half and wait for the second half, i dont think so.

first half and second half with an interval and i think now a days telugu film directors are very eager for the interval and if they don't have any continuty with the story the just write this on the screen.
i saw many people waiting for the interval to have a fag and a cup of tea, i saw few who are trying to run away from the theater in the gap.

and even coming to the point of directors, if the have two different stories ie one with village backdrop and the other in UK or US they mix both short film with this interval and call it as a big film.

S.S.Rajamouli is very famous for his intervals and he makes people very eager before 20 minutes of the break and he background music in his films before interval irritates many and makes some eefect on the mind and even i think he writes the story as if nothing is told before interval and many chareters are involed before 5 minutes of interval and according to mr.mouli and evevn many directors in south india think that they are creating a suspense for the public but they doesn't know that they are creating head ace for the people.
cant we make a 1 hr 30min film?
i think we can make another film in the break?
most of the film success talks come out in the break adn if any one says that the film is flop then no one can change the destiny of the film.

gates of the theaters open and people running to getinto the "q" for tickets and very eager to see the film and the same time many people running out of theaters from the back door.
