Mr. Prankster ... Down Down Well a carefully designed ploy started today in a guile of a prank, satire whatever you name it...the point of ridicule is the presence of so many Tollywood stars both new & old beside stalwarts like Mr. Bachan, SRK & Dr. Hassan at the Calcutta International Film Festival Dias.. My counter ridicule is as follows: • Prosenjit was Posenjit for the better part of his career, so ideally he should not have been on the stage too • Mr. Bachan & SRK are icons of mainstream cinema, according to previous benchmarks ( which limited festivals to the elitist elite only) they should not have been there either • If the current generation is not given an opportunity to rub shoulders with stalwarts, how would you expect them to improve and become stalwarts for the future generation • The entire film fraternity which was present should have been replaced by the white hair, thoughtful intellectuals I believe a film festival is organized mainly for the following reasons: • To promote raw talent (budding artists, directors, producers, technicians) who gets to showcase their work and get a platform • To learn from the happenings of the world of cinema • To create a platform to interact • To create a platform to attract audiences , after all without them the show stops For the above reasons, I think its best suited that my young generation takes on the center stage than the grey haired oldies who anyways have lived their life and would retire from this world anytime soon, what’s the point of enlightening a soon to be dead enlightened soul.. On the contrary it’s imperative that we encourage our youngsters... That’s exactly what was done yesterday by getting the Subhasree, Dev and Jeets’ on the stage Mr. RJ Prankster ; I hope you did not mind? After all what I did was just a prank...Something you do always, and better than us... P.S: I guess you were not on the stage Mr. RJ Prankster..was that an issue? Remember for some enlightenment is just not possible....Ha ha ha
