Thank you, Himeshji!

He may be the most happening musician today, but Himesh Reshammiya hasn’t lost the ground beneath him. The composer recently referred his friend, actor Vatsal Seth (of ‘Tarzan’ fame) to National award winning writer and director Bharathiraja for his Hindi project, ‘Cinema’. “I know Himesh bhai really well. Despite being such a big name today, he has no airs. He was the one who introduced me to Bharathi sir. ” Adds Himesh, “Vatsal is extremely talented and I have full faith in him as an actor.”

A major schedule of ‘Cinema’ has just been shot in Malaysia. It is, incidentally, Bharathiraja’s return to Hindi films. He last made ‘Red Rose’ with Rajesh Khanna in 1980. The film also stars Nana Patekar and is set against the backdrop of the South Indian film industry (Tollywood), making it the first such Hindi project.

In the past, films like Guru Dutt’s ‘Kagaz Ke Phool’ (Guru Dutt), Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s ‘Guddi’ and more recently Ram Gopal Varma’s ‘Rangeela’ and ‘Naach’ had scripts based on Bollywood. ‘Cinema’ is a thriller, with Patekar playing a film director, while Seth essays an actor.

    Such a nice article…even though the movie Tarzan – the wonder car didn’t do very well, the actor Vatsal Seth is still v.appreciative of Himeshji for giving him the break =D Jem
