About my Blog

But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give you a complete account of the system, and expound the actual teachings of the great explorer of the truth, the master-builder of human happiness. No one rejects, dislikes, or avoids pleasure itself, because it is pleasure, but because those who do not know how to pursue pleasure rationally encounter consequences that are extremely painful. Nor again is there anyone who loves or pursues or desires to obtain pain

Deewar

I dont know how many more movies would be named as Deewaar, but there will be only one real DEEWAAR and that would be the one made by Yash Chopra. How many ever times I watch this movie and however by heart I know these dialogues, I still anticipate them in the rich baritone of Mr.Bachchan.

Probably this was the golden era of hindi movies when dialogues were powerful and garnered whistles and claps from audience. Salim-Javed will remain probably the best scriptwriting duo of Indian cinema. Till date these scenes and dialogues from Deewaar have been spoofed numerous times and it lingers into public memory as fresh as ever.

I hope no one dares to remake and kill this movie :(
