If you have time, and nothing worthwhile to do, you can watch these 2 movies – (I watched both of them last month). Another equally irritsting movie is FARISHTAY - with dharmendra and Vinod Khanna.
Tehelka – A 1980’s film directed by ANIL Sharma (the same person who directed GADAR and VEER). An atrocious film - out-of-the-world dialogues - Indian army officers (Shammi Kapoor, Mukesh Khanna, Aditya Panchsoli, Naseerudding Shah, Dharmendra trying to bring down a dictator from a Kashmir type country/state ruled by evil Amrish Puri. The guns used in the movie are iron pipes, painted black, and welded together. Even a kid can tell that those are FAKE guns. I guess the first movie which showed “real” hardware being used was Roza.
Hum Saath Saath Hai – A not-so-successful film from the Barjatya’s – very character is not only named – “something”-Babu, but also uses the Babu suffix in every dialogue, not only referring to the character in 3rd person, but in face to face talk as well.
While on the topic “Babu” – lot of Gulti film stars are “babu” - Aditya “Babu”, Naga “Babu”etc. I can’t imagine why would a film start want to be called “Babu”.
Imagine Shahrukh “Babu”!!!!! or Hrithik “Babu” on the credits!!
Trivia –
One thing in the gulti movies – if a star is famous by a particular screen name or epithet – he HAS to be introduced in all movies with the same name – the junta will cause a riot in the theatre if a different name is used. So Cheeranjeevi has an unique epithet, Nagarjuna has one for him and so on..
This was told to me by one of my friends – I will need to verify by watching a gulti movie in the theatre.
