Harman Baweja, the handsome hunk who has already become a star due to his girlfriend Priyanka Chopra, is attending Suresh Sharma’s Institute of Memory to improve his dialogue delivery in his films. Harman finds it hard to memorize the long passages of dialogues of his film and this institute specializes in providing ‘instant record system’ to help memorize the needed stuff.

David Dhawan, affectionately called the "King of comedy", is probably one of the most commercially successful directors of today. With an enviable record of having the highest number of box-office successes, he is a hot favourite with the filmi janta. His films are unpretentious, and made with the sole purpose of entertainment.
David Dhawan, a product of FTII , Pune, directed Ankhen, a film that had a stupendous stint at the box-office, with a record that almost challenged the earlier blockbuster, Maine Pyar Kiya (1989). Ankhen, witnessed the revival of popular cinema in the 1990s. This was followed by another box-office smash, Shola Aur Shabnam.
For David Dhawan uses fun, family and nation as a formula for success. The tomfoolery, the slapstick, the preponderance of catchy songs, dance, bonhomie and the simple one-line story, all seem to be a quintessential part of a David Dhawan Film.
David doesn't believe in a grand narrative in Shola aur Shabnam a bunch of worthless collegiates are the main protagonists, while in Raja Babu, a yokel saves a family from falling apart. Coolie No 1, shows a commoner crossing class barriers, while Hero No 1 (1997) depicts a rich hero's escapades as a cook to win over his girlfriend's family. In Bade Miyan Chhote Miyan (1998) two small-time tricksters from a village pre-empt two look-alike cops who are protecting a key witness. The romantic plot, family feuds and mistaken identities, all have that special David Dhawan touch of comedy.
David Dhawan's cinema carries forward the mode of popular story telling. He weaves escapist yarns, which are a welcome respite from all the violence and melodrama of the other movies. The audience always knows what he is going to get from a David Dhawan film – pure, unadulterated entertainment and total paisa vasool.

Rishi Kapoor (born September 4, 1952 in Mumbai) is a famous Indian Bollywood actor.His pet name is Chintu.He is the second son of famous film director and star Raj Kapoor. His brothers are well-known actors: Randhir Kapoor and Rajiv Kapoor. Rishi is the paternal uncle of today's actresses Karisma Kapoor and Kareena Kapoor. Rishi married actress Neetu Singh, with whom he had several hit movies, in 1980. They have two children named Ranbir Kapoor and Ridhima Kapoor. His son Ranbir Kapoor is going to make his debut with Sonam Kapoor(Anil Kapoor's Daughter) in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Saawariya releasing in 2007.Chintu, as Rishi is fondly addressed, was always passionate about acting. His bedroom mirror was his earliest confidante and he would try out various expressions in front of it.Rishi first debuted in his father's 1970 film "Mera Naam Joker" playing his father's role as a child.Rishi Kapoor.When elder brother Randhir grew too old to play the role, a chubby Chintu stepped into the hallowed portals of RK Studios to play the young joker in his dad's mega movie, "Mera Naam Joker". Chintu's performance as a plump adolescent Raju, whose senses are stirred by his attractive teacher Mary (Simi Garewal), and who struggles to come to terms with his ensuing guilt, was so mature, it belied his age.Rishi won a National Award when he was barely 18 for his sensitive portrayal of a teenager's first crush in the movie.Thrilled by the adulation, a barely-out-of-his-teens Chintu hankered for the lead role in his father's next production, Bobby. But he knew he stood a slim chance to bag it if he did not shed the extra kilos. A determined Chintu stayed away from steak (his favourite dish) and cut himself down to half his size.His efforts were successful and Rishi Kapoor had his first lead role, opposite Dimple Kapadia, in the popular 1973 film "Bobby" which became an instant hit with youngsters.Rishi won heady stardom playing Raja, a disenchanted, affection-deprived teenager who falls headlong for the beauteous and well-endowed Bobby (Dimple Kapadia), the daughter of a fun-loving fisherman (Premnath). The young actor became catnip to college girls at 21.If Dimple in the title role of Bobby sent hearts spiralling out of control, Chintu with his freshly sprouted moustache and lovelorn eyes did not lag far behind. He may have lost Dimple to reigning superstar Rajesh Khanna, but Khanna lost a sizeable chunk of his young fans to Rishi.Rishi then provided a launch pad to a legion of fledgling heroines: Dimple (Bobby), Kajal Kiron (Hum Kisise Kum Nahin), Shoma Anand (Barood), Bhavna (Naya Daur), Jaya Prada (Sargam), Naseem (Kabhi Kabhie), Sonam (Vijay) and Divya Bharti (Deewana).When Dimple quit the industry, Rishi found new heroines. In frolicsome entertainers like Rafoo Chakkar, Khel Khel Mein and Amar Akbar Anthony, the nattily dressed Neetu Singh complemented him beautifully. Soon after they played a couple whose marriage is coming apart at the seams in the underrated Doosra Aadmi, they married in real life too. Rishi's success coincided with Amitabh's ascent and the prince of romance had a difficult time stepping out of the tall shadow cast by the angry young man.Rishi Kapoor could always be counted on to wear the most outrageous outfits. Whether it was the head to toe white sequence leisure suit in "Hum Kisise Kum Naheen" to the incredibly large sunglasses in "Bobby" Rishi was the male kitsch fashion plate of 70s Bollywood. His use of over the top clothes were a way for him to really get into his characters.He was nicknamed "Lover Boy" and Rishi was the major teen heartthrob of 70s Bollywood entertainers. He was the dashing singing and dancing kid chasing romance in light hearted films as opposed to the 'Angry Young Man' social drama/action films that featured actors like Amitabh Bachchan.Even if he unapologetically worked in commercial films, believability was his calling card and he worked hard to achieve it. In Amar Akbar Anthony, Rishi wore a double-knit fabric trouser, a netted see-through shirt and chewed paan to get a feel of his character. To lend throb to the Dafliwala in "Sargam", Rishi shrugged his shoulders before playing the dafli, a trait he picked up from a father-son duo of dafli players. It led to an impressed Amitabh Bachchan complimenting Rishi on his ability to dance, sing and play the dafli simultaneously.Sporadically, Rishi made valiant attempts to conform to the trend and star in vitriolic dramas like "Zehreela Insaan" and "Gunehgar", but the audience shunned them, preferring to patronise his romances like "Laila Majnu" and "Hum Kisise Kum Nahin". The deft dafliwala of "Sargam" (1979), the pop singer who wants to avenge his own murder in "Karz" (1980), the love-obsessed rebel who proposes to a widow in "Prem Rog" (1982) reinforced one's belief in Rishi Kapoor as a sensitive actor with golden toes.His films fuelled his lover boy-for-all-seasons image and Rishi became its prisoner. Besides, his early marriage seemed to disappoint his female fans. In the mid-1980s, Rishi's penchant for his evening quota of drinks manifested in a well-rounded physique. A seen-there-done-that lassitude set in.Still, Rishi acted his way back with Sridevi in Nagin. The hitherto choosy star signed a spate of films.One of them was Yash Chopra's "Chandni". Rishi played a man who shuns his love when he is crippled in an accident. The star delivered a perceptive performance capturing the anger, cynicism, self-loathing and the desire for sacrifice that stems from his helplessness.The success of his home-production Henna, directed by brother Randhir, and the cacophonous David Dhawan comedy, Bol Radha Bol, delayed Rishi's fade-out but his widening girth resulted in a thinning out of roles. He played the lead role romancing young heroines till the year 2000 with the delayed release of "Karobaar: The Business of Love". He then attempted his hand at direction, but "Aa Ab Laut Chalen", starring Akshaye Khanna and Aishwarya Rai, made under the RK banner, flopped at the box office.Today, Rishi occasionally lends sparkle to lacklustre fare like "Raju Chacha", "Kuchh Khatti Kuchh Meethi" and "Kucch To Hai"; but a youth-centric industry can offer few roles that do not waste this fine actor's talents.He did a few more supporting roles with Hum Tum (2004) and Fanaa (2006).Recently he appeared in "Namaste London" and an English-language film titled "Don't Stop Dreaming" which was directed by his cousin Aditya Raj Kapoor (son of Rishi's uncle Shammi Kapoor).






Ram Gopal Varma (born April 7, 1962) is an Indian film director, writer and film producer from Andhra Pradesh. He is popular for his slick, grisly films and his penchant for horror and gangster films. He owns a production house which churns out a large number of small budget bollywood indies every year, with great success. He has a cult like fan following in India and abroad. His most successful films include Shiva, Rangeela, Satya, Company and Sarkar.Ram Gopal Varma was born to Krishnam Raju and Suryamma. He was a dropout from Siddhartha Engineering College in Vijayawada before taking up a career initially as the owner of a video shop and then became one of India's leading film directors. He was not a regular at classes, but was known more as a big movie buff during his college days and used to analytically watch both American and Indian films through repeat viewings. He and his uncle were crazy about movies and would often skip classes to watch them in spite of beatings from his mother. He used to get very excited each time he saw the ‘Directed by’ and ‘A Film by’ title card and had the same passion when he saw his own name on the title card of his debut Shiva. There was no support from his family and even his uncle thought he was crazy.Ram Gopal Varma believes that there is currently much more talent in Mumbai than in the southern film cities like Chennai and Hyderabad. He is a great admirer of directors Shyam Benegal, Govind Nihlani, Basu Chaterjee, Gulzar and the Ramsay brothers. He considers Kalyug, Ardh Satya, Rajnigandha, Mere Apne, Angoor and Do Gaz Zameen Ke Neeche as the greatest Indian films of all time. He however has his own style, and doesn’t have any influences. He doesn’t bother with reviews and says, “Why should I worry about what the faceless reviewer thinks about my film? If he doesn’t like it, there is nothing that I could do about it.” Varma also does not respect any film awards and never attends award functions, regardless of whether he is nominated.Ram Gopal Varma started his film career in the Hyderabad film industry as an assistant director for the films Raogarillu and Collectorgari Abbai produced by S.S.Creations. Ram Gopal Varma made a huge mark in the telugu industry with his debut film Shiva , a violent stylized crime drama with a college backdrop. At the age of 28, with no film background and training, he was able to convince Nagarjuna, then a young telugu star to do his debut movie. Nagarjuna liked the narration of the script and energy displayed by Varma, and produced the movie himself. Shiva became a landmark film for the telugu industry and was later remade by Varma in Hindi, but was not able to repeat the same commercial success as that of the original.His next bilingual (Telugu/Hindi) film Kshana Kshanam (starring Venkatesh and Sridevi in the lead) was loosely based on a Hollywood flick Romancing the Stone and was another huge blockbuster for the young Varma. Raatri (a bilingual horror flick with Revathi in the lead),Antham (a hard hitting bilingual crime drama with Nagarjuna and Urmila Matondkar in the lead, all failed to repeat the commercial success of his first two films.Govinda (with Nagarjuna and Sridevi in the lead) became controversial because the villain of the film steals the diamond studded crown from the sacred Lord Venkateshwara idol. Despite it being purely fiction, the scene was considered sacrilegious. Indian censor boards asked Varma to delete this scene and the movie became a dud at the box-office.His next release Gaayam with newcomer Jagapati Babu and Urmila Matondkar was a violent underworld epic. The screenplay was provided by popular Tamil film director Mani Ratnam, and Ratnam wrote the script based on The Godfather. It became a huge success and put Varma back on top. He would go on to repeat the casting of Urmila Matondkar as the female lead in many of his films as the two would share a long and close relationship, with the couple even rumored to have gotten married on several occasions.He would then start his own production banner Varma corporation limited and produced Telugu films such as Money, Money Money, Gulabi, Wife of Mr. Vara Prasad, Anaganaga oka roju, Deyyam (with the last two directed by Varma himself). His assistant directors Krishna Vamsi, Shiva Naageshwar Rao and Teja who worked as a cinematographer for his movies, later became big names in the telugu industry.While popular Indian Cinema was either over the top action films or glamorous love stories, his movies were more deep and realistic. Though Indian Cinema has always produced ace movie-makers who reveled in the portrayal of realism, he is credited for bringing realistic films into the mainstream and creating his own niche as a maker of stylish yet realistic commercial cinema.His first success in Bollywood started with the commercial blockbuster Rangeela, a romantic drama. Urmila Matondkar became a big Bollywood star overnight. A. R. Rahman also became a star in Bollywood with this film. Attempting to recreate the success of Rangeela, Varma followed Rangeela with Daud, a romantic adventure, and was a huge dud.Varma decided to switch tracks and released the ground breaking film Satya, a violent epic based on the Mumbai underworld. The film was brutally realistic as Varma did extensive research on Mumbai organized crime and shot the film documentary style along Mumbai slums, chawls and streets. Made with a shoe string budget and non-stars, this film made famous actors like Manoj Bajpai, J.D Chakravarthy, and writers like Saurabh Shukla and Anurag Kashyap and music composers like Sandeep Chowta and Vishal Bharadwaj. The film was widely considered Varma’s first true masterwork, and with the film Varma single-handedly created a genre which would be popularly known as the ‘Mumbai-noir’. Some critics bashed Varma for his glorification of Mumbai hoodlums, causing Varma to add a cautionary message during the end credits of the film. Varma decided afterwards to only direct films in Bollywood from then onwards. The mega blockbuster film spawned many imitations in Bollywood, but all were largely inferior.Another hard hitting masterpiece followed shortly after with ‘Shool’, written and produced by Varma. The film looked into the life of a police officer, in the harsh rural setting of Bihar. The film repeated Varma favorite Manoj Bajpai and was a commercial and critical success.With movies like Kaun, Bhoot and his award winning masterpiece Company he cut out song and dance sequences commonplace in Bollywood films, so as not to interrupt the flow of the narration. He is also known to be very particular about the background scores and for a long time collaborated with composers Sandeep Chowta and Vishal Bharadwaj.Ram Gopal Varma often criticises the popular Bollywood film fraternity. He does so with sarcastic humor. His films almost always deal with the contemporary and urban. The scheme is mostly set in the city of Mumbai, however, the scope is allowed to expand as per the story. He is also known for introducing new actors and technicians in his films, rather than using established actors and technicians. He often uses Indian stage actors in his films rather than Bollywood stars. Critics say his movies don't just sketch a macro perspective but go deeper into the minds of the protagonists attempting to uncover their motivations.His recent release Naach, which Ram Gopal Varma called his best film yet, was a self reflective piece and was an intense drama about the relationship between an idealistic choreographer who wants to revolutionize the film world and an ambitious actor who just wants to become rich and famous. The film did not do well commercially but was a critical success. In a recent interview with the Indian Express newspaper the filmmaker criticized Indian audiences saying "I gave Ayn Rand to a Municipal School."His next film as a director was Sarkar and released in June 2005. The film had the father-son Bollywood superstar duo Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan playing a father-son role in the film. Varma had said that Sarkar was a mix of Marlon Brando from the The Godfather, and the real life tale of respected Mumbai politico Bal Thackeray. Amitabh Bachchan played the character of Sarkar who is a self righteous and powerful politician. This film was a moderate commercial success yet a critical failure. Varma later admitted he made the film simply to cash in on the star power of the superstar cast.He spends most of his time these days producing small budget films for his production house Varma Corp, for most of which he often is the ‘ghost director’. He produces films at a fast speed that is unfamiliar to the Indian Film Industry. He has had many successes including Ab Tak Chhappan - based on the life of infamous Mumbai police officer Daya Nayak, 'D' - a prequel to his earlier hit "Company" based on real life Mumbai ganglord Dawood Ibrahim and Ek Hasina Thi. Also with the Darna series, 'Darna Mana Hai' and 'Darna Zaroori Hai', he created an innovative path breaking Bollywood horror series but unfortunately both met with critical and commercial failure. Varma is still primarily known for his 'Mumbai noirs'. His Production company - popularly known as "Factory" recently started making a remake of legendary hindi movie (King of all remakes) - Sholay starring Amitabh Bachchan (for the role of Gabbar Singh) and many other Bollywood stars.

He received his first Filmfare nomination for the best actor in a lead role, for the film Saajan. However his breakthrough role came in Subhash Ghai's Khalnayak (1993), which became a huge hit and gave his career a boost. He received a filmfare nomination for the film.The release of "Khalnayak" happened to coincide with Dutt's arrest in connection with the 1993 Mumbai Bombings. The hype surrounding the event and his convincing portrayal of the villainous role in the film gave his career a much needed boost and a filmfare nomination for best actor.

Despite getting into trouble with the law, Dutt has maintained his huge fan following, Perhaps the two main reasons that fans love this troubled star is his ability to survive and fight through the deepest tragedies of his life, and the exemplary respect that the common man in India has for both of his parents. After every setback he has managed to survive. Every time he has gone to the brink of absolute destruction, he has miraculously and sometimes unbelievably managed to claw back.While he was still in high school, Sanjay Dutt became a drug addict, probably as he was unable to handle the pressure of being the child of two celebrities. His drug problems worsened his mother's health, who was already diagnosed with cancer. Nargis Dutt died a few weeks before Sanjay Dutt's first film, Rocky, was to be released. A heartbroken Dutt took to doing more drugs. His father sent him to a rehab center in Texas. After attending a rehabilitation program in the United States, a sober Dutt started working in films again.But that was not the end of his tragedies, now it was the turn of his wife. Sanjay Dutt married Richa Sharma in 1987 (a small-time actress discovered by Dev Anand) who had nursed him back from a lung injury. A year later, the couple had a baby girl, Trishala. Just two months after Trishala's birth, Risha was diagnosed with cancer and the couple separated. Richa moved to United States with her daughter to live with her parents while Dutt pursued his career in Bollywood. After his wife succumbed to brain tumor in 1996, a bitter custody battle between Dutt and his in-laws over the custody of his only daughter ensued, which Dutt lost. After resurrecting his career with the mega hit "Saajan" and his first Filmfare nomination for the best actor in a lead role, Charges were filed against the actor for his alleged involvement in the 1993 Mumbai bombings.

His father Sunil Dutt, died in May 2005. Sunil Dutt was the sports minister of India at the time of his death.On November 28, 2006, A special TADA court found actor Sanjay Dutt guilty under the Arms Act of possessing an illegal weapon. He was cleared, however, of the charges of terrorism and conspiracy.Dutt's bail has been extended a number of times since the ruling and is still in progress.While Sanjay was cleared of terrorism charges namely the TADA Act, one of his friends who transported the AK-56 guns for Sanjay namely Baba Chouhan was found guilty under TADA Act.On 31 July 2007, Sanjay Dutt was sentenced to a jail term of 6 years for illegal possession of firearms acquired from terrorist acquaintances, who were responsible for the 1993 Mumbai bomb blasts.
