Sanjay Leela Bhansali
:
Count Back : Black,
Devsas, Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, Khamoshi.
The auteur of the moment - Sanjay Leela
Bhansali - has the country dewy-eyed over his latest. Black
is said to be a shadow of all his past films - specifically, Khamoshi.
The film is tough, ably narrated and nuanced. Bhansali has taken
the poignancy of drama and shaped it with grandeur and supple
performance. Word has it that he mirrors his own familial angst
in such creative outputs, telling it more effectively than it
really is. No matter the source, the competency of the craftsman
cannot go quickly. Bhansali has become a genre. It’s a foregone
conclusion, this year all the awards go to him. |
