      “I, sincerely request all cinema lovers to watch this Video to know the thought process and mind of one of the greatest film maker of India..”

      I second this. You articulated it so well.

      Please please do watch this interview in full. It is a very rare interview and if you love cinema or have ever loved any movie, scene or song from a Raj Kapoor directed movie please do watch it.

    1. I have seen Mera Naam Joker. The movie has like 3 parts or love stories at 3 different phases. The first two are very good while the third one is bad. After that the movie just goes on and on. Its way too long and self indulgent.

      1. RK will be remembered for many things, being 1st entrepreneur( if I can use Word) of Hindi cinema, for being Showman, great Music, some grt movies, bringing teenage romance in shape of Bobby, bringing Erotica in Hindi cinema but his Piece-de-resistance or say Pinnacle will always be “Awaara”…

  3. Updated the post with the official video. The previous video that I had posted had been removed from youtube. Thanks to Bobby Singh (@BobbyTalksCinema) for the new link.

  4. Fantastic video. Thanks for sharing.
    The way he describes his relationships with heroines I liked that part. I think he was one of very few film directors who had excellent sense of music.

    1. You are welcome.

      Agree with you that he had an excellent sense of music and he knew how to get great music out of his composers. And I think he also was able to get Lata to sing at her best in his movies.
