Now,
the Indian cinema has reached the new level and a revolution of sorts has
happened in terms of defining glamour, entertainment, commercial values,
budgeting, marketing and box office reports. Today Indian Cinema
,especially, Hindi cinema is not only popular in India but in parts of the
Middle East, Pakistan, UK and every other place where Indians live. Major
global studios such as 20th Century Fox, Sony Pictures, and Warner Bros are
investing in Indian cinema because of which Indian cinema has reached to Global
level but at the start of the year 2000 it was a different ball game
altogether.
The
star I gave a hint about in my last blog is Mr. Amitabh Bachchan (Big B), after
being a superstar for almost 2 decades it was a shocker for him to see his
stardom sway away and go bankrupt. Trying his luck in production Big B failed
miserably and strived to revive his acting career but apart from Suryavansham
in 1999 no other film worked. Hoping the year2000 would bring back his fortune
soon tables turned when Aditya Chopra’s Mohabbatein hit the theatres and became
an instant hit.
Followed
with more hits Big B’s career revived and experimented with many of his
characters. Now it was time for some fresh talent to enter and sooner arrived
Hrithik Roshan with his director dad Rakesh Roshan launched him in a cult hit
Kaho Na Pyaar Hai opposite Ameesha Patel. A classy romantic tale starring a
handsome hunk quickly established a bond with the audience and it became the
highest grossing film of the year 2000 with as many awards.
The
twenty-first century has brought a major change in films. Let’s talk about in
the next episode.
