00:09Your welcome in this new update
00:12So let's go on an amazing journey today.
00:16Whenever it comes to the glorious career of India's most legendary director Ramesh Sippy
00:22So what comes to your mind first?
00:24The question is, what is his greatest cinematic achievement?
00:28If we ask anyone, then perhaps without any hesitation, only one answer comes to mind.
00:33A blockbuster that truly changed the world
00:36But no, we are not talking about Sholay here.
00:40Arguably, this 1975 film is his biggest identity.
00:44There is no doubt in this
00:46But the surprising thing is that many critics and cinema lovers
00:50His true critical masterpiece is considered to be another film.
00:54And the reason behind this is really interesting.
00:57If we look at their journey
00:59So this is really nothing less than magic.
01:01Just imagine, at the age of 25, he got his first hit film.
01:04From guessing to darting
01:06More than one in different tens
01:08The journey to creating a masterpiece
01:10He not only changed himself with time
01:12Always try something new
01:14chose a new path
01:15So that great masterpiece we mentioned
01:19That is the 1982 classic film Shakti.
01:22Now this was no ordinary auction or show-off film.
01:26The script was written with such precision and depth.
01:29what to say
01:30It is a part of Salim Javed's famous Vijay Trilogy.
01:33The third important part is considered
01:35There was such a moral dilemma in this story.
01:38Such a morality tale
01:40The rest that makes you think
01:42And this was the life of the film.
01:44Clash of Bab and Son
01:45This match is actually a perfect one.
01:48Aesthetic fees were
01:49On one side, the king of acting Dilip Kumar
01:52who likes principles and
01:54Playing the role of a fundamentalist father
01:56and in front of them
01:57Amitabh Bachal's strong personality
01:59who rebel against those principles
02:02a silent and stern
02:04stood as a son
02:05Both these acting giants
02:07Balancing on a scrim together
02:09Oh, this was no small task.
02:11But listen
02:13The most important point here is this
02:15that power lies only between these two titans
02:17There was no mash of kabaddi
02:18It was woven with utmost care
02:21In the film, women are shown only as shoemakers.
02:24Not shown
02:25Like Sameeta Patil's character Roma
02:27An independent, self-reliant woman
02:29who has left a strong mark on the story.
02:31His acting was extremely controlled.
02:34And that last scene will be memorable.
02:36That awesome look on the airport runway
02:38Stylish and energetic climax
02:40It is still fresh in people's minds.
02:42Well, now away from the glamour of the big screen
02:46Let's move a little towards the world of television.
02:48There is a small number
02:50105 And it has a different date of its own.
02:53After working his magic on cinema
02:55what did Ramesh Sippy do
02:57He continued for 105 episodes.
02:59Keeping the entire community awake in anticipation of his next big project
03:03And this was a historic project.
03:05The 1986 cult series Buniyaad
03:07This series is written by Manohar Sham Joshi.
03:10laid such a foundation on DD National
03:12Which really turned Indian television on its head.
03:16This wasn't just any ordinary TV show.
03:18Rather, it was a living testimony to an entire era.
03:20Buniyaad actually faced the hardships of the Partition of 1947.
03:24And the human effects of that great migration were captured.
03:28Master Havilah through the family of Ram and Lajjo
03:31The pain of displacement and changing family values
03:33presented so deeply
03:35that people could really feel it.
03:37It is also said that
03:39that when this show was on
03:41So at the time of broadcast, like Lohar
03:43Even the streets of the cities used to become deserted.
03:45This was the work of a great artist.
03:46The true power of storytelling
03:48Well, this great journey is here.
03:50Where fears never end
03:53This isn't just an interesting phrase
03:55Balke Ramesh Sipi
03:56Academy of Cinema and Entertainment
03:58That is, of RSCSE
04:00The basic purpose is
04:02After giving more than 40 years to the industry
04:04This Padmashree awardee thought
04:06Why not your beautiful
04:08Legacy and experience to the next generation
04:11be postponed until
04:12And the teaching style of this academy
04:14Very powerful and
04:16Practical with University of Mumbai
04:19Together they developed a special formula
04:20Made here 75%
04:23The focus is on practical work
04:24And only 25% on theory
04:26The purpose is quite clear
04:28For upcoming media professionals
04:30Don't limit yourself to books only
04:32Rather, give them direct hands-on
04:48Provide industry experience
04:53And we get a chance to take guidance from them.
04:55This legendary artist brings to life his years of experience
04:58and your strategies
04:59Giving it directly to upcoming new storytellers
05:02Which is really an amazing thing
05:04Okay, now let's turn the wheel of time a little faster and come to the present day.
05:09There's a huge heated debate going on in pop culture these days.
05:12People often compare Ramesh Sippy's 1975 classic Sholay to
05:16Adhithyadhar's new blockbuster franchise with Durandar
05:20If we are a little neutral and understand the business models of both the parties
05:25So the difference is quite clear
05:27What was the standard of success in the 1970s?
05:29It was seen how many months or years the film ran in the cinema.
05:33How deep were his characters and how much impact did the emotions have?
05:37But today's model has completely changed.
05:39Today is a high stakes environment.
05:41Where Everything Happens Global Massive Opening Weekend
05:44Built on a very large scale and cutting edge technology
05:46Both models are good in their own way.
05:49The scale of work has completely changed.
05:51On all these debates and changing trends
05:54Ramesh Sippy's own perspective is really beautiful.
05:57He simply believes that every period is according to its needs and mood.
06:02produces its own cinema
06:03Yes, technology has changed.
06:05The screens and mediums have changed.
06:07But the true spirit of cinema remains the same.
06:10After all, no matter what the era
06:12The fundamental purpose of cinema is to tell a compelling and powerful story.
06:16So, in the end, we are left with an interesting question.
06:20As the film industry is changing day by day with new technology
06:24So, is Mustaqbal's blockbuster remembered only for its amazing visual effects and glamour?
06:29will go
06:30Or will the same ever-present emotional depth and strong story make them legendary?
06:35This is a question that really makes us think about the times to come and the future of cinema.
06:40forces it to
06:41Thank you so much for coming on this journey with us.
