FC Director's Choice | Parinda | Jio MAMI 2015 

How can you discuss parinda without nana patekar?

Parinda is surely one of the finest films ever made in India.It's a masterpiece of Indian Cinema, which should not be only limited to be given a cult classic status, but it deserves much more than that, bcoz of absolutely magical direction,brilliant screenplay, perfect editing, superb cinematography,hard-hitting dialogues with power-packed performances, and the fact which is most striking is immaculate sound effect which was something new for the movies made in that era, and which actually started a trend to give the movie a seriously realistic effect.So,basically Parinda was a complete package and probably one of the first movies which gave equal weightage to both the commercial and parallel aspect of cinema.

vidhu vinod chopra from bombay, and mani ratnam from madras: true gems of the 80s/90s.

All are living legends for me, I would love to go and watch these guys talk for hours. Anurag is so inquisitive, just like a child, learning from a teacher, that's the reason he's such a great film maker.

This is far much better than koffee with Karan... Absolutely love such candid conversation..wonder who didn't like this and why ?

Parinda is one of the Finest Hindi film ever made...exceptional movie. Loved it

Finally a channel that is interested in Hindi Cinema filmmaking and Bollywood artists. Great job!

Jaggu Dada is one heck of a character.. he is so funny and natural...

Candid discussion from all the participants. Especially Jackie Shroff. He's priceless.

Anupama, you should do Satya with RGV, Anurag Kashyap, Manoj Bajpai and Kallu Maaaaaaaaaaamaaaa :)

Jackie shroff is bad ass. Love this guys attitude ☺️

I have not seen a movie like Parinda. It was ahead of its time. It started the trend of film noir with main cast in grey shade( Jackie sir) here.

Parinda, one of the finest film of the Hindi cinema. Love it it every time I watch it. Enjoyed every bit of this conversation, never wanted it to end.

Essential viewing for any cinema-lover!

I wish this was longer! So entertaining, and so much to learn! Wish Jackie could speak more on the last scene of "Parinda". But I guess things like great acting cannot be explained, or analyzed! It happens in the moment. Jackie Shroff was so powerful in the climax.

So heart warming listening to these stories and incidents from the past.. I love this approach where it's informal and a chatting session than the usual 'rapid fire' or 'never have I ever' type interviews.. Well done team!

love this interview, respect for all - Anurag, Vidhu, Anil, Jackie!

This was extremely interesting..... I hope more of such interviews, rather than those absurd 'who is your favorite Khan' kinda star interviews !!

Jokes apart, how fascinating to relive the struggles and laugh at it.

Parinda yet again :) Nana Patekar and Madhuri Dixit are missed. The film was hard hitting..emotionally raw. I believe Jackie Shroff won a firmware for his role. :)

It is funny how nostalgia makes you like actors you didn't like as a youngster.

It is apparent that all 3 share a great bond even today :)..another exception in today's world of films.

Outstanding conversation on films. Vidhu v chopra Jackie shroff Anil kapoor Anurag kashyap 👍

As a 17 year old watched PARINDA four times in the cinema theatre. What a film !!!

Parinda is brilliant ParIndia mein Jayaadaa Chalna Chaiye thaa

It was awesome seeing Jackie Shroff and Anil Kapoor together love you guys

What a film 📽️ hat's off to Vidhu vinod Chopra..

I wish it was longer!

Bloody brilliant! Thankyou for sharing these insightful discussions with us.... Looking forward to more

Its amazing that you have not just stuck to reviewing films and have actually gone a step further. I love movies and would watch any discussion based on the Hindi movies,so this seems to be a very apt channel for me :) Keep the videos coming!

i still watch the re runs till today. what a story this is and what a film parinda is

Thank you Film Companion for bringing inside stories about such classics. Wanna see more of such sorts.

This session confirms the notion that the finest movies made in India are made on shoestring budget and always difficult to sell. Look at Khamosh

Thank you, Film Companion! More of these once in a while. Off to watch Parinda now. :)

Thank you for these gems!

I come here once a month to listen to VVC :).. That Parinda first line bit.. always kills me!!

What a history to remember.

I just want to say the movie - PARINDA uff kya bolu it's a one and only movie of BOLLYWOOD aisa picture aur nahi ban sakta yaar ek ek scene , music background music uff , character of two brothers , feeling of both the brothers pretending - caring -loving aggressive - mind blowing every dialogue of both the brothers uff Jacky was amazing in the role elder brother n anil was fantastic in younger brother , when Jacky says laake de mera bachpan screaming n shouting omg what a scene it's a true feelings which I feel when I was fighting with my brother . I salute you Mr. Vinod n all ur team 🙏

Thanks a lot for the golden memories of this masterpiece.

Mr. Nana Patekar is a beyond personality !! Good he didn't come !! He doesn't belong here !! God bless you sir . . You are an inspiration to us . . Not just as an artiste , but as human being as well . . Thank you for being there . . Love . .

It's so much to learn from the big stars ,I wish u guys made much longer videos

this is so good..we get to hear so many great things about how films were made earlier and now...more videos should come like this.

Anil sir is the soul of parinda movie

This is a awesome interview to watch and to hear about wonderful behind stories of wonderful movies from these awesome actors and a artistic director, which are made and portrayed by them and they share their experience.

Even few film old at the time of Parinda Mr. Nana Patekar delivered outstanding exllent performance by everyone is praising. What a strength man.

Very nice. Loved hearing Vidhu Vinod Chopra.

1:57 listen what Chopra has said.... That's why Anand L Rai once said "There're no bad actors ; only bad directors" 👏🙏

Jackie is such a genuine person...and Vidhu trusted him with such an emotionally draining role!

I love anil sir and jackie shroff soooooo Nice voice eyes everthing good b f

One of the masterpiece in the history of Bollywood. Hats off for vvc

Why is Nana Patekar missing. Parinda would never have been a masterpiece without him.

Great video.. Want to watch more videos like this..

Jaggu speaks so fluent english

I jus enjoyed my 20 mnts jus smile on face too good to see all these wonderful ppl😊😊

Parinda briliant scene ..when madhu n anil killed n jackie walk so weakly returning nana banglow wow wow

Gr8 legend Nana should have been in this discussion

Thank you for sharing this. Really. This was very entertaining. I enjoy learning about how movies are produced/ distributed and most importantly the intricate filmmaking process. Lots of respect.

Actual Jackie speaks very good English ! But because he has seen it all he doesn’t bother to pretend and be a classy guy ! But he must be a real gentleman!

Parinda and many other film in which nana work belongs to NANA sir his acting and dialogues delivery are the highlights of the film.🙏🏻😷

This movie I have seen in my colleague days after bunk lecter with friends and at after we discussed only that last scene of Madhuri and Anil because we were first time seen such scene, But after some time when I was alone then realising the impact of every performance not only from actor but also form technician sound direction pace of movie everything... Hats of you Vinod sir. Great work done.

A movie with anil. Jackie and sanjay would be epic

Watched this gem of a movie today on Prime, and searched for some reunion videos... 😊

thank you anupama mam for making videos like this....these are very very informative videos for film students

Great work comes out with lot of hard work. Its very easy to refused and negative marking abt cinema but they put lots of efforts to bring it out .

Anurag kashyap and Javed Akhtar are very precious jewels of Bollywood/Hindi film industry

Parinda....one of the master piece by Vinod Chopra......

If only Jaggu Dada could be like this in his films . He starts acting there 😢

Love you Anil kapoor sir.... The real superstar.....

I imagine that last time when Jackie Shroff spoke in a proper Hindi language without using any tapori word like bhidu Bawa

Jaggu Dada love you...!!!

Thanks Vinod for making a film for an angsty teen to go to as a warm bed in cold November night.

Seriously man.... Awesome

I love jaky sir ....😂 Grt gardish, parinda, angaar

Bhai aisi movies abb kyu nhi aati I miss tht 90s brotherhood.. The direction and characterization Story and acting was outstanding Even the negative role was simply The best🙏🌺💯🌻🌾 Soo natural close to life

Parinda is the heck of a movie...specially the emotional intensity it has...the acting is top notch....

We need more filmmakers like Vidhu right now in Bollywood

Beautiful interview !! All The Best

Good for times when media and critics were not after the actors

It’s hard to imagine anyone other than Jackie Shroff in the role of Kishen but then again Naseeruddin Shah would have been electric.

i am fan of Vidhu Vinod Chopra .......great film maker and person...........

Very Rarely I have seen Anurag Kashyap just sitting back and LISTENING rather than ranting about his own...

jaggoo added life !!!

two of my fav Hindi movies are by anil Kapoor- Lamhe and Parinda

Anupama, I miss your weekly videos! With Front row, there was one every friday, but now there are barely any uploads... why ? I dont live in India so your channel is my sole touch with Bollywood movies right now. Also thanks for including Jackie Shroff in this interview, he is a class act. BTW I have not watched Parinda (was not born then) but I realllly do want to watch it now!

cool guys 🌹 love too

My favourite director too. Here after his comeback film 12th fail, film of the year again

if Jackie Shroff says "Mereko acting wacting nahi aata, tu sambhal lena". He is so humble and down to earth.

VC & jaggu dada were hilarious

The bestest come together for a riot ... smashing... Anupama Chopra u r jus osssummm

too much talent in one frame.

Parinda is the masterpiece of Indian cinema

Anil Kapoor is smart and fashionable.

Nana Patekar sir, in PARINDA like 🔥🙌🏻

Lovely chat ❤ Jaggu Dada is effortlessly funny.😂🔥

superb !

the Legend Vidhu Vinod Chopra

Karan johar should learn a thing from anupama about how the chat shows should be. This is such an interesting stuff and people would definitely want to hear it, getting to know how much effort goes into the film-making process. Rather karan keeps asking bullshit question on whose dating who which even the celebs dont want to answer!

loved vidhu sir's muviz it is really film fix fr me.... and a request to post some same kind of interviews with some grt directors sharing their experience....... a Request

You know the legends are talking when they are referring Sanjay Bhansali like a kid on the set 🎉

Few things warm heart more than seeing the company of Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff, Anupam Kher, Madhuri Dixit, Sanjay Dutt, Vidhu Vinod Chopra, Shekhar Kapur, the early Subhash Ghai. The 80s' hindi cinema was and is unnecessarily called the worst of the decades. They were mainstream, they were such stars but they were so delightful to see on screen. Maybe the fringe of the mainstream. Very, very likeable. They made such solid, believable, mainstream dramas. Characters could be seen for who they were, and one didn't have to worry about the fucking subtexts, thematic extrapolations. Unlike the shitty, pretentious mainstream in the fringe today that includes the man interviewing Vidhu, Anil, and Jackie in this video!
