CAMAAL MUSTAFA SIKANDER, BOLLYWOOD SATIRIST CREATES WAVES WITH POLITICS

Maverick Bollywood Satirist Camaal Mustafa Sikander along with his “cronies in crime and satire” – as he terms his associates, are working on a Photo Series on the Great Indian Election Circus. CMS - as he is known amongst his friends, along with actor Rajkumar Kanojiya, ballroom dance trainer Daniel Ibess Clifford and writer Sanjeev Rajat are seen here working for a series of Photo Cartoons on various political characters depicting the ongoing election campaigning in India.

Says Camaal Mustafa Sikander explaining his passion, “It was my childhood dream to become a singer and actor but due to stage-fright and other circumstances I did not make it. However, I have found solace in a new passion and now I create spoofs of various Bollywood actors, movies, songs including all times greats like Dilip Kumar, Dev Anand, Amitabh Bachchan to name a few. With the help of well-known Bollywood photographer Raju Asrani who snaps the action very creatively, I create posters and photo cartoons based on that. I have evolved a particular style for this piece of satire and though I am still trying to identify a unique name for it, ‘Har Fun Maula – Jack of All Master of Fun’ is a self-given tagline.”

Professionally Camaal is a creative consultant for print, web and OOH and has helped design the creative branding for various events, brands, artistes and his clients range from Mohammed Rafi Academy, Immortal Memories (GV Films) and many others. His former clients include Asit Modi of Neela Telefilms, Vipul Shah of Optimystix, the late Pran Saab, Javed Akhtar and Shabana Azmi, writer Javed Siddiqui and many others.

Two Music companies come together for HEROPANTI

Given the music scenario in the industry, we see a surprising thing happening with the music of Tiger Shroff's debut film, Heropanti.

We see two different music companies coming together with their music for the film.

The first song of Heropanti, Whistle Baja which was recently launched amidst flute sellers is owned by Sa Re Ga Ma music company for years now as it was Jackie Shroff's tune from his film Hero.

While all the other songs of the film are owned by T-series.

This is an exceptional case we see in the industry for Tiger Shroff.

Whistle Baja has a different version of his father's Hero tune which is a huge cult even today..

Sabbir Khan says, 


Yes its unusual and I guess the first of its kind when two giant music companies like T. Series and Saregama have collaborated for one film... We have got great feedback about the music for Heropanti and it reaffirms our faith in the creative content.

You will have an educational experience of excellence, with Scandar Copti a tutor who developed his very own method of directing actors, with enormous success, granting him the Golden Camera in Cannes and an Oscar Nomination. Scandar’s method of directing actor´s without them being aware is impressive making his film is a work of fiction which shows “real” people acting in situations that are orchestrated by the directors, but very “real” to the performers, resulting in the actors projecting emotions on camera that they actually experienced at the time.

ABOUT SCANDAR COPTI
Copti is an Oscar-nominated Palestinian filmmaker born and raised in Yafa. In 2009, his first full-length feature film “Ajami” won the Camera d’Or Special Mention at the Cannes Film Festival. His film was also nominated for the 82nd Academy Awards in the Best Foreign Film category and won more than 15 awards worldwide. Formerly a mechanical engineer, he has also written, directed and edited several fiction, documentary and experimental short films. Copti was on the jury of the Tribeca film festival as well as at the Thessaloniki film festival in 2010 and President of the Human Rights Award in the Istanbul International film festival 2011. Copti was part of the team that launched the Doha Tribeca Film Festival and the Doha Film Institute (DFI) and he headed the DFI’s education department until November 2011. Currently Copti is developing his next feature film project.

Workshop info:
Filmmakers often use the element of surprise to direct actors for certain scenes to get authentic emotional responses.
The directors of AJAMI based their film entirely on this principal. Unlike other forays into improvisation, AJAMI had a very precise screenplay and a well-constructed plot that demanded precise emotional responses from its actors.
The actors ended up acting out a story, without being aware that they were being directed according to a pre-written script. The film is a work of fiction which shows “real” people acting in situations that are orchestrated by the directors, but very “real” to the performers, resulting in the actors projecting emotions on camera that they actually experienced at the time.
This was achieved over specialized workshops, in which the actors were brought to each character’s emotional and psychological state as written in the script.
In these workshops, the participants didn’t learn about text, goals, mise-en-scene or acting tricks. The focus was on the psychological journey of the characters through dramatic role-playing. Eventually, each actor deeply identified with his or her character as though the character was an extension of their own personality.
When the cameras started rolling, something magical happened – the actors forgot that they were in a fictional situation and their minds believed that what was happening was real.
Throughout the 2 days-workshop, participants will learn and experience the technique that Scandar uses during the preparations of his actors as well as during the shoot.   

PROFILE OF PARTICIPANT
The workshop is designed to Directors, Film Students, Casting Directors.

16 hours
Dates: 2-3 August 2014
Location: Hong Kong
Price: 5500 HKD
Vacancies: 25

agnee-logo2The film is a political satire set against the backdrop of rural India. A multi-layered film, it is based on the complex belief systems that prevail in Indian society and the conflicts that ensue thereon. Keeping in mind the theme and relevance of the film, Mohan from Agnee said, “ Yeh Hai Bakrapur has a serious message but the film speaks about it in a fun way. When Janaki Vishwanathan approached us for the music of the film, the first reaction we had was to want to associate ourselves with this project… right after we said “Wow.” It’s truly a fun and sweet film and a project we’re proud to be associated with. Hence immediately decided to do this pro bono. “Koco added, “While Agnee agreed to do the music pro bono, what we didn’t expect was for our featuring artists to show the same solidarity and join us in our endeavour. We’re super excited that Amit Kilam and Rahul Ram from Indian Ocean, Keerthi Sagathia, Raghu Ram, Abbas Tyrewala and Panchhi Jalonvi have joined us and have truly made this experience super fun and super memorable.”

“Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba is revered the world over by believers and non-believers alike. His devotees regard Him as the Avatar of the Age- their Divine Master who has shown them the Path of Love manifested as selfless service which subscribes to the unique philosophy that both the ‘serving’ and the 'served' are embodiments of the same Divinity, by whatever name called” said Sri Pandya.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba has spent His entire life in an unparalleled continuous endeavor to elevate man to the highest degrees of human excellence. His Universal message of human values and His  astonishing  models  of  EDUcare,  MEDIcare  and  SOCIOcare  inspire  faith  by  proving  the
action ability’ of Divine Love.  These models have stunned the most advanced economies of the world with the sheer magnitude of their work and magnificence of their philosophy.

Educare offers the most advanced education complete with contemporary academics, world renowned faculty and state-of-the-art facilities to students from all religious and economic backgrounds. The system is designed to not only elevate the students’ intellects but also to offer a deep spiritual anchor that equips them with resolute self confidence and character such that knowledge  is  used  only  for  the  benefit  of  mankind  at  large.  All  education,  from kindergarten to postgraduate studies is absolutely free of cost to students, each of whom is admitted solely on the basis of merit.

The Sri Sathya Sai Medicare Projects embody a harmonious blend of the ‘Philosophy of Healing’ with the ‘Science of Love.’ Here every doctor though distinguished in his field and equipped with state-of-the-art healthcare facilities second to none in the world, regards every patient, as an embodiment of the Divine. This is why all treatment including advanced cardiac and neurological surgeries are done completely free of cost for one and all.

In the Sri Sathya Sai Sociocare, Baba has initiated and implemented multimillion dollar Drinking Water Schemes with no government aid whatsoever, alleviating the sufferings of millions of rural Indians. He has taught people all over the world that service is not an act of philanthropy but it is a means to connect with the Divine Life Force which exists within every speck of creation. It is as much an aid for the ‘benefactor as much it is for the ‘beneficiary’

Together, Baba’s work and message signify the resoluteness of positive endeavor based on the strength of character and right action to usher the world into a new era of peace and joy. No other spiritual leader ever has had such a wide reaching, global influence which has not only shattered all barriers of religion, caste, economic status, race and nationality but also continues to inspire millions even three years after His having left His Physical Frame.
