Deeply honoured: Kiran Rao on Laapataa Ladies being selected as India’s official Oscars entry

<p>Kiran Rao's critically acclaimed film<em> Laapataa Ladies</em> is India's official entry to Oscars 2024 in the Best International Film category. Released on March 1, 2024, It marked the film debut of actors Nitanshi Goel, Pratibha Ranta, and Sparsh Shrivastava and featured Chhaya Kadam and Ravi Kishan in key roles. But before Kishan, a well-known face in Hindi and Bhojpuri cinema, was cast as the cop in the film, Rao's ex-husband and producer of the film, Aamir Khan had expressed keenness to play the role.&nbsp;</p>

<p>During an interview, Rao revealed that Aamir had even auditioned for the role.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
“Aamir loved the character and auditioned for it as well. But I felt that since he is a star, there would be more expectations from the character if he were to essay that role. Aamir was bringing a star baggage to the character. So, we wanted someone so fit for the role that you cannot make out what he does next. Ravi Kishan is amazing, I felt there could not be a better 'Manohar' than him.”<br />
<br />
She also added, “In a way, Aamir helped a lot because he supported the idea of having fresh actors so that the viewers are pleasantly surprised and find some new things in the character and what Ravi Kishan brings to it. When you see stars, you understand that this is a hero and that is a villain. However, we had to keep the suspense till the end."&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Based on an original story by Biplab Goswami and adapted to the screen by Sneha Desai,<em> Laapataa Ladies</em> tells the story of two young newly-wed brides who get exchanged during a train ride to their husband's homes. The film takes a humorous approach to talk about women's rights, societal conditioning and empowerment of women among other things.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Aamir Khan recently sat down with Rhea Chakraborty for an episode of her Chapter 2 podcast. During the candid conversation, the actor expressed his disappointment over <em>Laal Singh Chaddha's </em>failure at the box office.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The actor also blamed his own performance for the film's debacle. He said, "My performance in Laal Singh Chaddha was pitched too high, unlike the original that had a great performance by Tom Hanks, who brought everyone in with it. My performance let Laal Singh Chaddha down, according to my reading. I think I might do better in my next film."</p>

<p>When Rhea said that she liked his performance in <em>Laal Singh Chaddha</em> and it didn't need any improvement, Aamir said in Hindi, “As a creative person, I feel what we had intended to create, we reached very close to it (in Laal Singh Chaddha). So this was one of those films that some people really loved, it was their favourite film, while most people could not connect with it. And the reason why they could not connect was because my performance was weak... look when you make a mistake or you fail or you are weak, it can be an opportunity. You have to be very honest why the film did not work. I loved working in Sitaare Zameen Par after Laal Singh Chaddha despite saying I will not work in films. It (Sitaare Zameen Par) is a great film.”</p>

<p>Reacting to the podcast, a fan wrote, "You always need the guts to accept the truth.. Respect Aamir Khan."

Laapataa Ladies screened at Supreme Court, Kiran Rao says she's 'over the moon'

<p>Wimbledon season is back! To attend the nail-biting matches, celebrities from around the world are currently in London. Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan is also in the city for the tennis tournament, where he&nbsp;shared his special affection for the game.</p>

<p>Recalling his childhood days, Aamir revealed that he was a very good player in tennis. However, he chose to leave it.&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>Aamir's Connection With Tennis</strong></h2>

<p>At Wimbledon 2024, Aamir interacted with former tennis player and commentator Vijay Amritraj. During his chat, the<em> Taare Zameen Par </em>actor revealed that he used to play the game at a young age. “I don’t think I could have ever made it to any significant level but I really enjoyed the game so I had a lot of fun while playing it,'' he said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Further, he revealed that he stopped playing the game after his father Tahir Hussain asked him to quit the sport.&nbsp;</p>

<p>''And then one fine day, my dad decided that I should stop playing so I stopped,” said Khan, adding, “Well, I think I am very happy where I am so yeah and good for tennis that I didn’t continue.”</p>

<p>This was Aamir's second time at Wimbledon. In 2023, he attended the Men’s Final with his children Junaid, Ira Khan and Azad. Calling it a ''wonderful experience'', he said, “Well, to be honest, I've been here only once to actually watch it live which was last year. I came with my kids and it was a wonderful experience, really wonderful experience and as I was saying earlier, up until now, I've watched it on television through Star Sports. And but when you watch it live, you realize just how fast the game is and how amazing the players are and the whole atmosphere, the excitement of watching it live is something else.”&nbsp;</p>

<h2><strong>What Aamir Khan is doing now?</strong></h2>

<p>After Khan's last release<em>&nbsp;Laal Singh Chaddha</em> failed to earn numbers at the box office, the actor took a break from acting. However, the acting powerhouse is back to work. He will next be seen in <em>Sitaare Zameen Par.&nbsp;</em></p>

Did you know Aamir Khan was 'very good tennis player' but had to quit?

<p>Aamir Khan's son Junaid Khan, who recently made his acting debut in the Netflix film <em>Maharaj</em>, recently revealed that he auditioned for his father's <em>Laal Singh Chaddha</em>, however, it "didn't work out". The Advait Chandan directorial was a remake of the 1994 American film <em>Forrest Gump</em> and also starred&nbsp;Kareena Kapoor Khan, Naga Chaitanya and Mona Singh.&nbsp;</p>

<p>In a candid conversation with ETimes, Junaid said, "I had actually auditioned for Laal Singh Chaddha which Papa has talked about publicly, but it didn't work out. Papa (Aamir Khan) was very keen that I do the film."&nbsp;</p>

<p>The <em>Maharaj</em> director Siddharth P Malhotra added that Junaid auditioned for the role of protagonist, Laal Singh Chaddha. “It was this audition that Adi ( Aditya Chopra) and I saw, and what an audition that was… it was outstanding and if that clip can be released at some point in time, it would be great,” the director said.</p>

<p>Junaid played the role of Karsandas Mulji in <em>Maharaj</em>. The film revolves around the historic 1862 Maharaj Libel Case. Directed by Sidharth P Malhotra and produced by Yash Raj Films (YRF) Entertainment, the film also features Jaideep Ahlawat and Shalini Pandey.</p>

<p>WION's review of Maharaj reads, "Debutant Junaid Khan gets an impressive character to play but is very average throughout the film. Even if one ignores the fact that he is the son of one of the most formidable actors of our generation, Khan never manages to leave a defining impact with his role. There are certain moments in the film where the young actor shows promise, especially a scene outside JJ's Haveli (a sacred temple area) where he places a photo of Lord Krishna under a tree and urges people to continue with their prayers even if JJ has shut doors and access to the main sanctum area. But overall, Junaid's performance, much like the film's implementation is strictly passable."

To standing next to, learning from, admiring and working with THE Aamir Sir. God has been extremely kind and generous. So so much to learn from sir on so many fronts. “But above all... How to be an amazing human being... Full of love, passion, absolute humility... Unending curiosity and learning zeal... A terrific leader, an extraordinary creative culture builder... Constantly empowering those around him... Extremely trusting... And a protector,” Prasanna wrote in his post. Sitaare Zameen Par, also produced by Aamir under his Aamir Khan Productions banner, also features Genelia Deshmukh. “What an absolute delight of a human. You are a treasure my friend,” the director wrote alongside his photo with Genelia on his Instagram Story. Sitaare Zameen Par will also mark Aamir’s return to the silver screen after 2022’s Laal Singh Chaddha. Recently, Aamir co-produced Laapataa Ladies with its director and his former wife Kiran Rao. His next production is Rajkumar Santoshi’s Lahore 1947, starring Sunny Deol and Preity Zinta.

Director RS Prasanna announces wrap on Aamir Khan-starrer Sitaare Zameen Par

<p>Aamir Khan's son Junaid Khan's debut film <em>Maharaj</em> was all set to release on an OTT platform on Friday, June 14. The film's release, however, has been stayed by the Gujarat High Court following a plea by a Hindu group, which claimed that the film can potentially incite communal violence.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
Helmed by Siddharth P Malhotra, <em>Maharaj</em> also stars Jaideep Ahlawat and Shalini Pandey in key roles and is a period film.</p>

<p><strong>The controversy surrounding Maharaj</strong><br />
<br />
According to reports, the “stay order was issued on a petition filed on behalf of devotees of Lord Krishna and followers of Vallabhacharya, which is the Pushtimarg sect.”&nbsp;<br />
<br />
The film, which revolves around the Maharaj Libel Case of 1862, could potentially cause a rupture in public order and even incite violence against the followers of the sect.<br />
<br />
The Maharaj Libel Case of 1862 was a legal battle between a reformer and journalist who had made allegations against a prominent religious leader of misconduct. The petition points out that the case was ruled over by the English Judges of the Supreme Court of Bombay.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
It makes “seriously blasphemous comments against Lord Krishna as well as devotional songs and hymns.”</p>

<p>Meanwhile, the complaint also points out that the film has been planned to be released without sufficient promotional materials, including a trailer, so that there is limited access to the story. That could cause serious hurt to the sentiments. On these grounds, Justice Sangeeta Vishen of the Gujarat High Court passed an interim order staying the release of the movie in any manner whatsoever.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The matter has been now scheduled for a hearing on June 18.</p>

<p><strong>About <em>Maharaj </em>the film</strong><br />
<br />
Netflix, on which the film is set to release, has not given out much details about the film. As per the synopsis, the film is set in 1862.<br />
<br />
"A time when there were only three universities in India, Rabindranath Tagore is a year old and the Sepoy Mutiny of 1857 continues to fan the flames of independence. Against all odds, one man takes a courageous stand in a landmark legal battle, a true story that’s now come to light in Maharaj — more than 160 years later," reads the synopsis of the film.&nbsp;<br />
<br />
“Karsandas Mulji, a journalist and social reformer, was a pioneering advocate for women’s rights and social reform. A student at Elphinstone College in Mumbai and a protégé of the scholar-leader Dadabhai Naoroji, he wrote on widow remarriage, stood up for the oppressed, and sowed the seeds of reform in society. It all came to a head in the Maharaj Libel Case of 1862, which was ignited by allegations of misconduct by a prominent figure, the case garnered widespread attention and scrutiny, setting the stage for what many consider to be one of the most significant legal battles of all time,” it added.<br />

<p>British actor Jason Shah has been all over the headlines, thanks to his performance in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's <em>Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar</em>. For his role as British cop Alastair Cartwright, he has been garnering a lot of praise.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Jason Shah has been raving about&nbsp;his experience of being part of&nbsp;SLB's magnum opus and has now also opened up on working with other&nbsp;Bollywood stars. Recently, the actor recalled working with actor Aamir Khan in the movie <em>Thugs Of Hindostan.</em></p>

<p><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/general-hospital-actor-johnny-wactor-shot-and-killed-in-suspected-theft-725747">General Hospital actor Johnny Wactor shot and killed in suspected theft</a></p>

<p>During his recent interview with Zoom, the actor shared, “It was a fantastic experience for me because I got to sit opposite him all day long. This is Aamir Khan, not just another actor you meet.”</p>

<p>Talking about Aamir's perfectionist side, Jason shared an incident from the set when he kept on asking for another shot until he got the perfect shot.</p>

<p>He said, “It was wonderful to see him so immersed in his character. I don’t think I was in his space. He was just miles away from everyone. And his perfectionist side… I remember this one shot: I was looking through an eyeglass and he kept asking the director for one more retake. Even though the director said, ‘I think we got the shot,’ he kept asking for ‘one more’. Aamir being Aamir."</p>

<p>Shah has also worked with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan&nbsp;and actress Katrina Kaif, among others.&nbsp;</p>

British actor Jason Shah has been all over the headlines, thanks to his performance in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Heeramandi: The Diamond Bazaar. For his role as British cop Alastair Cartwright, he has been garnering a lot of praise. Jason Shah has been raving about his experience of being part of SLB's magnum opus and has now also opened up on working with other Bollywood stars. Recently, the actor recalled working with actor Aamir Khan in the movie Thugs Of Hindostan. General Hospital actor Johnny Wactor shot and killed in suspected theft During his recent interview with Zoom, the actor shared, “It was a fantastic experience for me because I got to sit opposite him all day long. This is Aamir Khan, not just another actor you meet.” Talking about Aamir's perfectionist side, Jason shared an incident from the set when he kept on asking for another shot until he got the perfect shot. He said, “It was wonderful to see him so immersed in his character. I don’t think I was in his space. He was just miles away from everyone. And his perfectionist side… I remember this one shot: I was looking through an eyeglass and he kept asking the director for one more retake. Even though the director said, ‘I think we got the shot,’ he kept asking for ‘one more’. Aamir being Aamir." Shah has also worked with Bollywood superstar Salman Khan and actress Katrina Kaif, among others. In another interview with Entertainment Live, Shah shared it was after working with Salman that he decided to pursue acting. Recalling his brief time with Khan on the movie Partner, he shared, ''I started modelling when I was 17–18. I did a small scene in the song 'Dupatta Tera Nau Rang Da' in Partner. That’s where I was bitten by the acting bug. I wanted to live this amazing life.” The actor added that Salman Khan arrived on set at 3 in the afternoon on his motorbike and nobody was doing any work. At 4:30, the producer requested him for just one shot. "I loved it. It looked like a relaxed life.” You can watch Jason Shah in SLB's Heeramandi. The show is streaming on Netflix.

<p>Kiran Rao and Aamir Khan might not be together but they continue to remain friends. The former couple recently collaborated on their film <em>Laapata Ladies</em> which turned out to be a massive hit.&nbsp;</p>

<p>When prodded on their chemistry even after breaking up romantically, she revealed in an interview with She The People that they in fact got married because of parental pressure.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Kiran Rao said, “I've always felt that (marriage as an institution is up for a rethink). Aamir and I lived together for a year before we got married honestly, we did it more because parents and you know… all the rest of it and even at that time we knew that it’s a great institution if you can function as individuals as well as a couple within that institution.”</p>

<h2><strong>Kiran Rao on their separation</strong></h2>

<p>On their separation, the director added, “The thing we don't talk about enough is how marriage tends to stifle, especially women. How you could find perhaps a way to be yourself within the institution. That's something up for debate and discussion. Esther Perel (American psychologist) has written an amazing book on it, and it's very interesting. As apes, we were living together. This nuclear family setup is a pressure, and it's a pressure especially on women.”</p>

<p>“There's so much responsibility on the women to run the house, keep the family together. In fact, women are expected to keep in touch with the in-laws, to be in touch with your husband's family. That's a lot of expectation,” she added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Aamir said, "Three days before my theatre play, there was a Maharashtra bandh across the state. Due to this, I couldn't make it to the rehearsals. The director asked me to leave the show. I was in tears because they threw me out just two days before the play! I couldn't get into intercollege. Just then, two guys came along. They offered me a diploma film at the Pune Institute. I immediately boarded the bus and finished shooting. Another student, who was working as an editor there, saw that film. Impressed by my work, he offered me a film. After seeing those two films, director Ketan Mehta cast me in <em>Holi</em> (1984). After watching Holi, Mansoor and Nasir Sahab said, 'Let's make a film with him.' That's where they got the idea of making a film with me because I was a good actor, and that's how <em>Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak</em>&nbsp;happened. So, if it wasn't Maharashtra Bandh that day, maybe I wouldn't have become a star."<br />
<br />
Aamir Khan made his debut in Holi and subsequently became a lead actor in <em>Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak</em> which made him a star. In his career spanning over three decades, Aamir has delivered several iconic films including <em>Dangal, Dil, Lagaan, 3 Idiots, PK</em> and many more.&nbsp;<br />

Aamir Khan recently backed the much popular film <em>Laapataa Ladies</em> which was directed by Kiran Rao. The actor is currently shooting for <em>Sitare Zameen Par</em>, which is set for a Christmas 2024 release.</p>

Did you know Maharashtra Bandh led to Aamir Khan’s acting debut? 

<p>Filmmaker Kiran Rao's new film <em>Laapataa Ladies </em>delivers pertinent messages on equality, education, and women empowerment - all wrapped in humour. The film starring newcomers Pratibha Ranta, Nitanshi Goel, Sparsh Shrivastava and Ravi Kishan could have gone either way. Considering it touches upon subjects of feminism it could have been preachy, instead, writers Sneha Desai&nbsp;and Divyanidhi take you into the beautiful world of Nirmal Pradesh and narrate the year's most heartwarming story.</p>

<p>The plot seems simple. Dinesh Kumar (Srivastava) is on his way back home after marrying Phool Kumari (Goel). The journey involves multiple modes of transportation and numerous changes- varying from a scooter ride to a bus ride to a final train journey.</p>

<p>When he reaches his home in the dead of the night, his friends and family are eagerly waiting to welcome the new bride. Veiled until then, the new bride's face leaves everyone stunned. Turns out there has been a swap in the train and Deepak has brought along Pushpa (Ranta) instead of Phool, who meanwhile is stranded at another station, clueless as to how to reach her husband.&nbsp;</p>

<p>While Deepak tries to look for his bride and find the whereabouts of Pushpa's family, it is Pushpa's mysterious and dubious nature that leaves the local cop (Ravi Kishan) suspicious of her.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The story may be set in fictitious locations but the problems are real. The beauty lies in the brilliant screenplay by Desai and Divyanidhi who adapt the story from writer Biplab Goswami and manage to put a smile on the face with little details. As she waits for her husband to come back looking for her, Phool befriends a beggar, a street vendor, and a chai <em>wali </em>at the station. The four form an unusual bond with Phool learning a thing or two on feminism from the elderly lady who gets work at her shop.&nbsp;</p>

There is so much that the film touches upon. Female bonding, equality, the importance of education, being self-reliant, the unnecessary customs and diktats that women are subjected to. Almost every scene drives home a point and yet at no point does it feel like a lecture. The writing and stupendous performances make<em> Laapataa Ladies</em> such a breezy watch.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>The brilliant cast of <em>Laapata Ladies</em></strong></p>

<p>Kishan, who has been a veteran in cinema, is almost reborn with his performance as the slippery cop. His comic timing is perfect in the film, and amid mostly unknown faces, he looms large with his character yet never overstepping the leads. It’s a layered performance for a role that one could have easily hammed but Kishan manages to make it memorable.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The newcomers are splendid. Who would have thought an influencer (Goel) could have given so much depth to her character? Or was I too quick to judge her by looking at her posts on Instagram? Nitanshi Goel brings in the right amount of innocence to her role. Phool has learnt to follow the rulebook by the T but is not rigid enough to unlearn things. She is called naïve for her optimism but eventually makes everyone believe in her belief.&nbsp;</p>

<p>A stark difference to Phool’s character is Pushpa (Ranta) who is a tad cynical but also spirited. While she plays her cards carefully, she also teaches the women in Deepak’s family multiple things- forges friendships, encourages women to find a voice and even wants to help Deepak find Phool but not before her purpose is served. Ranta is stunning as Pushpa- a role that is complex to play for its background but Ranta delivers a restrained performance- never overstepping what the character’s intentions are.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Giving the ladies company is Sparsh Srivastava. Last seen in the Netflix show <em>Jamtara, </em>Srivastav is the kind of leading man that one wants to see more on the Hindi screen. Srivastav plays the miserable and guilty Deepak so well that it's difficult to distinguish the actor from the character. The way he fumbles, yet proud of his English, the way he misses Phool but also is responsible about Pushpa and her whereabouts- it’s a well-written character, played equally well.&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>The writing and direction are top-notch</strong></p>

<p><em>Laapata Ladies </em>barely slips. It lifts the veil from so many societal issues but gently with humour, with subtlety and that’s why it feels like a giant warm hug. A story that speaks to you, makes you think and makes you smile at the same time.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Rao’s first film - <em>Dhobi Ghaat&nbsp;</em>- spoke about loneliness among other things in a city like Mumbai. A well-crafted and well-shot film, Rao’s work was appreciated for speaking to the audience in such a subtle manner. The beauty of <em>Laapataa Ladies</em> is that even though the film is feminist in its approach it never makes the men look bad nor does it whitewash them. Rao creates a stunning world where everyone and everything is <em>nirmal </em>(gentle) much like the film’s treatment and the place it's set in.&nbsp;</p>

Laapataa Ladies review: Kiran Rao's film feels like a giant warm hug

<p>Rancho from <em>3 Idiots </em>is probably one of the most-loved characters of Aamir Khan's career. However, did you know that Khan was a little sceptical&nbsp;before he said yes to playing the role of an engineering student?&nbsp;</p>

<p>Khan, known as Mr Perfectionist, recently appeared on the recent episode of The Great Indian Kapil Show, where he shared a lot about his professional life, the projects that he has been part of, his personal life, kids and a lot more.&nbsp;</p>

<p>During his conversation with comedian Kapil Sharma, Aamir recalled how he was not interested in playing the 18-year-old boy Ranchhoddas Shamaldas Chanchad aka Rancho in Rajkumar Hirani’s 3 Idiots.</p>

<p>“I wasn’t even doing 3 Idiots because I thought the public would laugh at me as I was turning 44 and I am playing the role of an 18-year-old boy. It would be weird,'' he said.&nbsp;</p>

<p>However, it was director Rajkumar Hirani who made Aamir say yes to the role.&nbsp;</p>

<p>''I told Raju to take three youngsters but he was after me. I hadn’t worked with Raju till then. I was a big fan but the story he brought me, I was like how will I play this young character,” Khan added.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Rajkumar Hirani's 2009 coming-of-age drama is one of Aamir's biggest hits of his career. The movie made around Rs 400 crore&nbsp;(Rs 4 billion) at the worldwide box office.</p>

<p><strong>Why Aamir Khan Said No To Bhagat Singh</strong></p>

<p>During his conversation, Aamir also went on to answer why he refused to play the role of freedom fighter Bhagat Singh.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Sharing his views, Aamir said, “Bhagat Singh ji is a very important historical figure. He was a unique human being. What he did at the age of 22-23, we can’t even think about it. His courage. He was fearless. That’s a very rare quality. Its beauty was that you see a young 23-year-old on the witness stand, whose mustache has not sprouted, making such big statements. If I stood there, I was already turning 40 at the time, it wouldn’t have looked good. That quality of a young guy saying such things won’t come to me. That’s why I didn’t do it.”</p>

<p>Aamir Khan went down memory lane and spoke about his debut film<em> Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak</em> during an event in Mumbai on Monday.

Singer Udit Narayan was also part of the event on Monday where Aamir recalled how Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak's cast and crew were all new.&nbsp;<br />

It's Eid and like every year, the Khan trio made public appearances to wish fans on the special occasion. Thousand gathered outside Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan's homes in Mumbai on Thursday evening to catch a glimpse of their favourite actors. Earlier in the day, Aamir posed with his two sons Junaid and Azad for the shutterbugs at his residence. For Eid, all the three Khans were seen dressed in pristine white. Around 6.30 pm, Shah Rukh appeared at the raised platform constructed in the compound of his Bandra bungalow Mannat to wave at the huge gathering outside. The 58-year-old star, who was dressed in a white Pathani suit, greeted fans with a 'namaste', a 'salaam', and a thumbs-up, and also blew kisses to the cheering masses that had left the road facing his house chock-a-block. He also recreated his signature open arms pose. SRK later shared a minute-long video on his social media page of him greeting his fans. In the video, SRK can also be seen gesturing to the teeming crowd to move back and maintain law and order when several of them tried to breach the police barricades. "Eid Mubarak everyone… and thank you for making my day so special. May Allah bless us all with love, happiness and prosperity," the Pathaan star wrote on X.

<p>Ambassador of Turkey to India Firat Sunel is a fan of Bollywood movies, especially the Aamir Khan-starrer<em> Laal Singh Chaddha,</em> a film the diplomat says he has watched at least four times.<br />
<br />
<em>Laal Singh Chaddha,</em> which was an authorised remake of the Hollywood classic<em> Forrest Gump</em>, was "more successful" than the 1994 original movie starring Tom Hanks, according to Sunel.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The 2022 film received mixed to negative reviews amid boycott calls on social media, something which appeared to have had an impact on its box office business.</p>

<p><a href="https://www.wionews.com/entertainment/bollywood/news-karan-johar-reveals-reema-maya-will-helm-student-of-the-year-3-she-made-it-her-own-series-706379">Karan Johar reveals Reema Maya will helm Student of the Year 3: 'She made it her own series'</a></p>

<p>"I am a fan of Bollywood movies and my favourite actor is Aamir Khan<em>. Laal Singh Chaddha,</em> I have watched this movie at least four times. It is an adaptation of Forrest Gump'. But this movie, for me, is more successful than the original one," Sunel told PTI in an interview here.</p>

<p>"When you watch Bollywood movies, you also see the Indian lifestyle and background. You learn so much about India and Indian people, so that's why Bollywood is getting more and more successful," he added.</p>

<p>The diplomat said <em>Laal Singh Chaddha, </em>which was also shot in Turkiye, made him realise the many similarities between Indian and Turkish culture.</p>

<p>To explain his point, Sunel talked about the opening scene of the movie where the titular hero, played by Khan, travelling in a train is seen offering golgappas to fellow passengers before having it himself.</p>

<p>"This (the scene) is normal for you and me, because it is a tradition. In Turkiye, we also offer food to people who are in proximity before we eat. But when somebody in America watches this movie, they wouldn't understand it.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>"They would think because 'He is not a smart boy, that's why he offered the food to other people'. Maybe because I catch so many similarities between our societies is that I feel so interested about the movies here," he added.</p>

<p>Also a bestselling author, Sunel views adaptations as a "risky" business because it comes with a fair share of challenges for the creator who wants to ensure nothing is lost in translation.</p>

<p>"When you write a novel, thousands or tens of thousands people will read it. But if it is adapted into a series or film, then the number increases to millions and even tens of millions.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"To be able to reach out to more people, it is important that your novel is adapted to a series or movie. But there are losses or changes (in book to screen translations)" he explained.&nbsp;</p>

<p>That's why the 58-year-old diplomat said he wasn't "100 per cent" satisfied with the Turkish TV series<em> The Great Exile Caucasia</em>, which was inspired by his novel<em> In the Shade of the Weeping Willows</em>&nbsp;(Turkish title<em> Salkim Sogutlerin Golgesinde</em>).</p>

<p>"As an author, if you are not ready to accept all the changes, I would suggest you to not do this. When the filmmaker comes on board, your duty (as an author) ends," he added.</p>

<p>Even then, Sunel said he wants The Lighthouse Family,<em> </em>the recently released English translation of his Turkish novel Sarpincik Feneri<em>,</em> to be adapted into a movie.</p>

<p>"'The Lighthouse Family' could be an adaptation even in India. The book relates to Indian families as well. They would like it, this would make for an emotional movie.&nbsp;</p>

<p>"Indian audiences, like Turkish audiences, like books or movies when they make them cry and this is one such book. It can be adapted in any country, in India or Western countries. So, if somebody is interested, why not?" he added.</p>

<p>The Lighthouse Family&nbsp;is a heartrending tale set in the backdrop of the Second World War. The beautifully told historical fiction centres around a loving family living in an isolated lighthouse in Turkiye's westernmost tip and ripped apart by the consequences of a war that was not even theirs.&nbsp;</p>
