What makes me cry is we will never even know exactly what we lost from Indian film history because unlike Hollywood guilds & MPAA, there is no serious record keeping. Our idea of a Bollywood historian is Anupama Chopra, who is a good film reporter but NOT a historian. FTII is emaciated.
(Junglee, 1961)
(I cannot find this with subtitles anywhere online and, because I have definitely seen this with subtitles but do not own a DVD, this is a reminder that companies can and do take away our access to things we love.)

I've only made an effort to see 3 Hindi films in theatres (outside of film festivals) this entire year. Shoojit's latest film will make it 4. This just shows my faith (or lack of it) in contemporary mainstream Hindi cinema. Most of it is barely cinema, just a smorgasbord of scenes stitched at random
RIP Hindi cinema and industry (1913-2017~)
(I know this isn't exactly new to us; lots of us have been saying this since a few years, but I think this is the first time someone from within the Hindi film industry is acknowledging it) #filmsky #desiwatch

Never work 70 hours a week for anyone whose grandchildren will never have to do a day's work. Never work 70 hours a week for someone else's business or for a job that doesn't pay overtime. Working insane hours for low paying job isn't nation building & don't let boomer uncles convince you otherwise
