Young guns with Aamir ! |
By Saurabh Rathore
Sometimes countless numbers do not provide
justification as few figures do. star's value is
credited by the quantity of films he does in a year with
the hits achieved. What if the, a star plays, beyond the
number game and achieves the zenith while treading on a
path of perfect filmmaking. As I have used the word
"perfect" it would be quite easy to figure out the
person in frame- Aamir khan. Aamir Khan has proved it
right in recent years that it takes lot of gumption
reaching glory with amateur drivers. These years
industry has seen a lot of impending actors but behind
the camera if we look, there is a crop of directors also
being growing simultaneously. But sometimes directors
have to compromise with their portrayal of story as they
are not able to fill in the pockets of superstars. But
what if directors get stars like Amitabh, Hrithik,
Shahrukh and Aamir to work in their films, they are
bound to succeed. But this had not been the case when it
comes to other against Aamir. An analysis shows that new
directors have been more successsful with Aamir than
equally talented and successful superstars. It has been
a true win-win situation for Aamir. If things have not
yet sorted out in your minds, let's begin with the
analysis.
Ashutosh Gowarikar came with handful of flops signing
Aamir in Lagaan and the rest is history- after a long
time Indian movie got an Oscar nomination. After this
prideful achievement, he comes back with ' Swades', with
King Khan; the film got a run for hitting gold at the
box-office. Ashutosh wouldn't have understood the reason
the failure till now. John Mattew Matthan brought a
relavant idea of that time when terrorism intruded in so
much even maligning the administration of country in
which Aamir Khan proved himself as stalwart to fight
against the menacing crime. John had anticipated similar
success with his second film much awaited Shikhar. But
it didn't bring the laurels with the brilliance of Ajay
Devgan supported by latest youth sensation Shahid Kapur.
Aks too fell in the same collapse giving no
consideration to the fact that it was being starred by
great Amitabh Bachchan. Rakeysh Mehra, director of the
movie tried to console himself by saying that it is a
new spice to India and people will take time connecting
in to such idea. May be earlier failure provided him the
requisite determination to make a masterpiece like Rang
De Basanti. This new ideates also used Aamir Khan as a
tool to bring the audiences to the theatre. But people
didn't just see the film, they came out awakened senses
and flushing out the deepest grudges against the
ruthless and inefficient government.
Farhaan Akhthar too had a graet responsibility on his
shoulders being son of Javed Akhthar who had been one
from the successful scriptwriters. Who better person
than Aamir would Farhaan have for portraying the
character of Aaakash in Dil Chahta Hai. The character of
Aakash easily ethhed into the viewers mind and lasted
for long; serving the purpose of making the movie a hit.
But with very next movie of Farhaan, Lakshya with latest
superstar on the block Hrithik Roshan, did failed to
disseminate the idea to the misguided youth of the
country.
What if these movies didn't have Aamir Khan? It would be
incorrect to come to a decision that these would have
been flopped. The films are even beyond the viewer's
mind to think upon. Scriptwriting playes pivotal role as
it's a backbone to any film. Initially, the script makes
stars to sign the film then afterwards provides the
necessary flow to the story of the film. But audience
has the power of even discarding off the well scripted
film. If they don't find any connection with the subject
and characters they will wipe out the film immediately.
Very important thing for them is to find relevance
whether movie is according to set theories or defying
the regular routine. Even the most routine story would
bring in appreciation of people if executed correctly.
Luck could be given a point in this game of winning and
losing. Something works on intangible forces. Even the
smallest push of talent by actors and crew can make the
difference and difference in no small inches but in
non-measuring heights as in Aamir's film. |
