Peepli Live produced by Aamir Khan and directed by Anusha Rizvi is a film that talks about the innumerable suicides of farmers in rural India.

From the preview, the movie sounds very interesting. Read on.

Peepli Live Movie Preview

On the eve of national elections in the village of Peepli, two poor farmers, Natha and Budhia, face losing their land over an unpaid government loan. Desperate, they seek help from an apathetic local politician, who suggests they commit suicide to benefit from a government program that aids the families of indebted deceased farmers. When a journalist overhears Budhia urge Natha to “do what needs to be done” for the sake of their families, a media frenzy ignites around whether or not Natha will commit suicide. Soon Natha becomes a cause célèbre, who draws out the true character and motivations of those who cross his path.

Anusha Rizvi’s auspicious first feature, Peepli Live, is a fresh and intelligently spun satire of the real life epidemic of farmer suicides that have plagued India for the past decade. With a deft hand, Rizvi infuses humor and buoyancy in depicting this tragic predicament, illuminating the true colors of many corridors of Indian society.

THE 4TH IDIOT arrives

The movie THE 4TH IDIOT starts where the block buster movie 3 IDIOTS ends i.e. at the school of Phunsuk Wangdu. It gives an insight that if Phunsuk Wangdu was the school principal than what will that school be like?

It is the story of a boy, Pappu who, by using the techniques taught by Ranchordas Chanchar in 3 IDIOTS achieved his otherwise seemingly unachievable goals like getting 1st position in school, winning his dream girl and even going to the moon. With two melodious songs and narration by Chatur Ramalingam of 3 IDIOTS (Omi Vaidya), it is not only entertaining but also a journey to our brain to understand its hidden potential. In the process of watching the movie the audience will learn important life skills. Omi Vaidya has not only anchored the movie THE 4TH IDIOT but also sung a song.

It is produced and directed by Guinness world record holder for strong memory and maximum push-ups, Biswaroop Roy Chowdhury. It’s an animated movie with the budget of Rs.2 Crore to be screened in World Unity Convention Center in Lucknow. The premiere event will showcase the movie to about 1 lakh students from May 9th 2010. Omi Vaidya (Chatur of 3 IDIOTS), Biswaroop Roy Chowdhury and the complete team of THE 4TH IDIOT will be present on the occasion of the World premiere.

Chetan Bhagat is hungry for publicity: Aamir Khan

Noida, Jan 1 (IANS) Actor Aamir Khan Friday said author Chetan Bhagat was ‘hungry for publicity’ and denied claims that the film ‘3 Idiots’ was 70 percent based on Bhagat’s bestseller ‘Five Point Someone’.

‘Three months earlier he (Bhagat) was saying something else and now he is saying something else as the movie is a huge hit now,’ Aamir told reporters at a press conference at Big Cinemas here.

‘While we were shooting at IIM (Indian Institute of Management) Bangalore, Chetan had come to meet us. So when I told him that I haven’t read your book, he replied that there was no need to do so as I have read the script and it is different from the book… So no need to read it,’ the actor said.

‘Now he is telling everyone that our movie is 70 percent on the book. It all shows that we are being used, you (media) are being used. This clearly shows that he is hungry for publicity,’ Aamir said.

He added that Bhagat was trying to take away credit from Abhijat Joshi, the writer of the film that has grossed over Rs.100 crore in its first four days.

‘Did you know about the writer before the movie was released?’ he asked.

‘Abhijat and Raju (director Rajkumar Hirani) have worked on this script for three years. Chetan is a big writer but Abhijat was the other guy who was working on the script. Full credit is given to him and he is not their (producers or directors) brother. But he deserved it,’ Aamir said.

‘All Chetan is trying to do right now is taking away credit from these people who deserve it. Let’s not encourage someone who is hungry for publicity,’ he added.

Directed by Hirani, ‘3 Idiots’ stars Aamir, R.Madhavan, Sharman Joshi and Kareena Kapoor.

Reliance BIG Entertainment, distributor of the film, released about 2,000 prints across 40 countries.

And, the nominations go to… ‘3 Idiots’

Movie features in 21 categories of Star Screen Awards

It’s that time of the year again. Bollywood’s annual award nights are all set to roll and quite understandably, “3 Idiots” is poised to dominate.

Up first is the Star Screen Awards and “3 Idiots” has secured a nomination in 21 categories! In fact, the movie has already won the distinction of earning the highest number of nominations in the 16 years since the Screen Awards started.

Aamir Khan has famously boycotted all popular awards, year after year, and we wonder whether he’ll show up at any of these events now.

Traditionally, Shah Rukh Khan has featured prominently at these awards nights, but as this year he had no release except “Billu”, SRK has got no nomination.

However, King Khan still holds the record for maximum nominations (17) across categories at Star Screen Awards. Aamir is the next closest competitor with 12 nominations.

Another heavy weight this year is Katrina Kaif who has topped the Screen survey of the Most Paisa Vasool Multiplex Star and has got the maximum votes for an actor who represents the changing face of Bollywood.

Katrina has also for the first time won herself a nomination in Best Actress category for “New York”.

'3 Idiots' accused of glorifying ragging

NGO complains to Supreme Court

A voluntary organisation working against ragging in India has complained to the Supreme Court appointed anti-ragging committee about the menace being glorified in Bollywood film '3 Idiots'.

"We have written to the R.K. Raghavan committee about the ragging scene in the film.

Raghavan has assured us to take appropriate action," Harsh Agarwal, head of the Coalition to Uproot Ragging from Education (CURE), told IANS.

"... recently released movie 3 Idiots has a scene on ragging, shown in a lighter sense. This is director Raj Kumar Hirani's second film, first being Munnabhai MBBS, where ragging has been used as a theme to make the audience laugh," Agarwal has written in his complaint to Raghavan.

"This not only shows the insensitivity towards the issue but more importantly such acts significantly add to the confusion already existing in the society vis-a-vis ragging. Millions of people, who don't know anything about ragging but have watched Munnabhai MBBS, till today remember the scene from this film and believe that ragging is all about dance and fun," the complaint adds.

Agarwal said instead of creating awareness against ragging, "the movie is glorifying it. Treating it as a subject of fun. This must end as hundreds of students across India suffer a lot due to ragging."

According to a study by CURE, the number of ragging cases reported (from July 2008-June 2009) are 88, number of ragging deaths are 12 and number of attempted suicides (due to ragging) are five.
