“My next film may be a comedy,”
said Onir at the Press Conference to mark the acquisition of
his film ‘Bas Ek Pal’ by Sahara One Motion Pictures at the
eleventh hour. “I have Hamlet on my mind too, but not now,
maybe later,” the director added. The Press Conference was
attended by some of the cast members Urmila Matondkar,
Sanjay Suri, director Onir, Producer Shailesh and CEO,
Sahara Motion Pictures Shantanu Aditya (Jimmy Shergil, Juhi
Chawla and Rehan Engineer were conspicuous by their
absence). On being asked if this acquisition has taken place
because Urmila is doing the ‘Superstars’ show at Sahara One,
Mr Shantanu Aditya conceded to it partly, but quickly added
that ‘Bas Ek Pal’ is an interesting project and that Sahara
would like to be associated with Onir in the future as well.
‘Bas Ek Pal’ is releasing on
September 15th and the reports of the film are very
positive. The cast including Sanjay Suri, Urmila Matnodkar,
Jimmy Shergil, Juhi Chawla and Rehaan Engineer are engrossed
in complex relationships highlighting urban sensibilities.
The music of the film is on top of the charts and is easily
one of the best scores to have come out this year. A special
mention for lyricist Amitabh Verma, who has written some
quality lines throughout the album. Watch out for this dude.
In fact Urmila loves the music so much that she has three
CDs (One for car, one for bedroom and one for the living
room). Ask her about her forthcoming films, she waves her
hands and in a poetic manner poetic manner she replies:
“Let’s not talk about anything else….Abhi Ke Liye…Bas Ek
Pal.” |
