00:00Mr. Salim Javed, 6-8 weeks before the release of the film,
00:05he wrote in the film information,
00:08that we have nothing in Kranti.
00:10Whatever has been done, has been done by Mr. Manoj Kumar.
00:13I even called him jokingly.
00:15If I have done it, then return the payment that I have made.
00:19Mr. Jaleel is so great for me that I don't call him by any name.
00:24I call him Haji in the language of a frontier.
00:28My wife is my biggest critic.
00:31She says that the good thing is good,
00:33but she catches the bad thing and kills it.
00:37Where did those words go?
00:39Where did those compliments go?
00:41Where did those tunes go,
00:43which used to shake the strings of the heart?
00:46Hai, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha.
00:51When I was researching and writing the film,
00:57Kanuji Angre, who is known as the first naval admiral,
01:06used to stop the British ships in the sea,
01:18used to snatch their ammunition,
01:21used to kill them.
01:24So there was a lot of this character.
01:27Then I thought that in our country,
01:31there were kings, emperors, Nawabs.
01:35This mass movement, how did all the people wake up?
01:41If the people woke up, it would have been a farmer.
01:45Because our country belongs to the farmers.
01:47The kings and emperors fought some,
01:49some surrendered.
01:55So I was making a film, Naya Bharat.
01:59So I had to make it quickly.
02:01Indira ji had asked me to make the film in an emergency.
02:04So I signed with Salim Javed.
02:07I told him to write the story on the screen,
02:09and I would write the dialogue.
02:11So during that time, our association and friendship grew a lot.
02:14I have known Salim since 1958.
02:17He is not just someone I know,
02:20or someone who is related to my profession,
02:25he is not just a close friend of mine,
02:28he is more than a brother to me.
02:34So then in an emergency,
02:39whatever I had to say,
02:42whatever I had to listen to,
02:44whatever I had to read,
02:46whatever bad things happened,
02:48that film got dropped.
02:51So I said, this is it.
02:55So, okay, we would sit.
03:00Then I would write the scene,
03:06or I would tell Salim on the phone,
03:10or I would go to Javed's house and tell him.
03:15But I was so emotionally close to him,
03:23that I named him after him.
03:27Although,
03:31Salim Javed worked very clearly,
03:38that 6-8 weeks before the release of the film,
03:42he wrote in the film information,
03:46that we have nothing in Kranti,
03:49whatever has been done,
03:50has been done by Mr. Manoj Kumar.
03:53I even called him jokingly.
03:55If I have done it,
03:56then return the payment that I have made.
04:00Anyway,
04:01when the idea of the story came up,
04:04I called Mr. Duleep.
04:06Mr. Duleep is so great for me,
04:08that I don't call him by any name.
04:11I am a language of the frontier,
04:13I call him yes.
04:15I said, yes.
04:17He said, tell me, Dr.
04:19I said, this is a very bogus story,
04:22a very bogus role,
04:23and I think you are very fit for it.
04:26He started laughing.
04:27He said, let's do it.
04:29I said, anyway,
04:30I keep talking to you on the telephone,
04:33but I will not call for this work.
04:35He said, don't do it.
04:37When the idea of the story came up,
04:40that the story starts from here,
04:42it happens here,
04:43and the end is like this.
04:45I told him,
04:46and he said, come tomorrow.
04:49I reached at 5 o'clock.
04:50We were sitting on the terrace.
04:52We were drinking tea.
04:54How are you?
04:56How is Shashi?
04:58How are the children?
04:59How is your father?
05:01We had a very deep relationship.
05:07He said, man,
05:09it is difficult today.
05:11His elder brother,
05:13Mr. Noor,
05:14he said,
05:15Noor Lala is very unwell.
05:17He is in the hospital.
05:19It will take three hours for the story.
05:22I said,
05:23I am a child in front of him,
05:26and I behave like a child.
05:29I said,
05:30Mr. Noor,
05:32the story that takes three hours to narrate,
05:35is not a story.
05:36A story is one that can be narrated in two to three minutes.
05:42Did you understand?
05:44Did you hear?
05:47Not two to three minutes,
05:49it must have taken five, seven, ten minutes.
05:52After listening, he kept looking at me.
05:56He said,
05:58the land is good.
06:01The land is very good.
06:03I said,
06:04if we manage it,
06:06the farming will also be good.
06:09I said,
06:10I have worked with him in film Admi,
06:13that people bother Mr. Dalip,
06:16but he did not bother me.
06:19He said,
06:20I will come at 11.15,
06:22he used to come.
06:24And even if there was no work,
06:26he never complained,
06:28being such a senior and great artist,
06:31that today my work is not good.
06:34I said,
06:35I will come at 11.30,
06:37he said,
06:38today my work is not good,
06:40my day is wasted.
06:41Never.
06:44That's it.
06:45I made the film with love.
06:48Sir, you have worked with Hema Mali
06:50in three films,
06:51Das Tambri ki Praan,
06:52Sania Si Geet.
06:53What was your experience working with her?
06:58Hema is a very good person.
07:05I have seen her relationship with her father,
07:12with her mother,
07:15with her aunt,
07:17with her brothers,
07:19and with fellow artists.
07:23She is very committed.
07:26And this is God's gift to her.
07:29The main thing is,
07:30maybe the education she got from her childhood,
07:34that switch off, switch on.
07:37From one shooting to another,
07:39which I could never do.
07:41I did not double shift.
07:42I did double shift only for two days.
07:44There was a problem with Hema Ji,
07:46that there were cuts in a film's censor.
07:51And,
07:53I think,
07:55she has worked in countless good and hit films.
08:01I don't think any producer has any complaint
08:05that Hema Ji has troubled us.
08:09And,
08:12whatever she is doing in the future,
08:14she is doing well in politics too.
08:19Her family life is also fine.
08:22Sir, you…
08:23Patanjali, you must have received some help from the film industry.
08:27Absolutely, absolutely.
08:29My wife is my biggest critic.
08:33She says the good things are good,
08:36but she catches hold of the bad things.
08:40Which…
08:42If I have got a little success,
08:46it is in her hands.
08:50Otherwise, wives keep praising,
08:52that this is my husband, this is my husband.
08:55No.
08:56She says, why this? Why this?
08:58He does this shot more.
09:00I say, no, man,
09:01understand a little,
09:03if there is background music in this, it will be fine.
09:06So, sometimes what she says is right,
09:09sometimes it is wrong.
09:11But,
09:13in her suggestion,
09:17there is no selfishness.
09:20Whatever she says is for my own good.
09:28Sir, what difference do you see
09:30between today's background music
09:32and the background music of the past?
09:36The difference between today's society
09:38and the society of the past,
09:40that is the difference.
09:45That…
09:48Where did the words go?
09:50Where did those upma go?
09:53Where did those tunes go,
09:55which used to stir the strings of the heart?
10:00Hai, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha, tha.
10:04Yes.
10:05Some good songs came in between.
10:07Piya Basanti Re.
10:12The melody in which
10:14music is a combination of thoughts and music.
10:19In which thoughts and music will be there,
10:22it will touch the heart.
10:24Yes.
10:25Today,
10:26I will say something rackety,
10:28that the sale of music is not happening.
10:32The recording of music has become very expensive.
10:35Promoting music has become very expensive.
10:40The more we spend on it,
10:43the less we get back.
10:45But it is important that
10:47if the music is good,
10:49it makes the film double.
