'Maine Gandhi Ko...' likely to bag
special jury award
By Subhash K. Jha, Indo-Asian News Service
Mumbai, Aug 27 (IANS) Though it's not official yet, Jahnu
Baruah's highly acclaimed "Maine Gandhi Ko Nahin Mara" with
Anupam Kher in a pivotal role has reportedly won
the special jury National Award.
Anupam, who has also produced the film, is delighted.
"I haven't had official intimation on the matter. But I've heard
that my film has won the special award, which is very
prestigious. It's a delightful honour. I'm glad the film
continues to make an impact a year after release."
"Maine Gandhi..." is the story of a retired professor who
suffers from frequent bouts of forgetfulness which gets worse
and eventually he starts blaming himself for Mahatma
Gandhi's 1948 assassination.
Anupam is now looking forward to
the release of "Khosla Ka Ghosla" next month.
"It's a small but very significant film. And I hope it finds the
audience it deserves."
Anupam is happy for his wife Kirron, who is part of another new
hit.
"Yes! She is in 'Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna'. And it is a success.
I'm aware they call her the lucky mascot. They used to call me
that. Chalo, it's her now."
About this week's release "Aap Ki Khatir", Anupam says: "Dharmesh
Darshan will surprise you in 'Aap Ki Khatir'. It takes him into
a totally unexpected style."
