A Movie, That I Will Direct Will Be Something Like Something…



Title of the movie, I don’ know. I haven’t figured it out yet. A rock band, a fruit, a folk dress of Andalusia, a xylophone, a spaceship, extinct species, sound of sharks, the process of making wines, a nursery rhyme, a popular painting, a word from dictionary, billionaire’s son’s name or just a cap of a designer pen, could be the basis to decide a name of the movie. Or it could be one not mentioned in the list.

Cut to, the casting. Woah! Excited. Quite a few names are already popping up in my mind. But. But it is legends versus the aspiring and struggling actors. The stars of silver screen versus the stars in their peer group. My own favorites versus the opportunists.

But I want to make a super hit flick. One that will break all records. Completes all silver, golden, diamond, titanium jubilees et al. That’s for sure.

Now comes the indispensable part of the movie. How it will be? What will be the plot or the story? And yes, I have numerous options for it too. Some record breaking and award winning ideas. Some truly novel ideas. Some autobiographies. Remakes. Historical identities. Science fictions. Action-horror-comedy-thriller, not necessarily in the same order. And yes the blogs, the real life stories garnished with some masala, tadka, latkas and jhatkas. Or simply an online script-writing contest.

 I think that sounds good.

Tan-tan-la-la-hey-hey-ho-ho. No. I have not got insane. But just thinking about the music. The melodious tracks. The lyrics. The rhythms. And of course, striking the right chord. Because, I believe, it’s the music that an audience enjoys in a movie the most. It’s a way to reach to their pocket. Don’t take me wrong. I meant, the driving force to pull them to the theatres. And let me tell you one secret . Because I’m little nervous. Music is also my back-up plan. A hit music.

Actually, it gave me another idea. If my movie, god forbids, doesn’t work then I can make a music video. Using the same music for a music video. Recycling in a real sense. As we know that music is a universal language. So it will be a musical film.

I have suddenly started feeling busy. I am already up for my second project.

Now, I don’t know how to end this blog. Should I say THE END. Or TO BE CONTINUED… ( with other aspects of the movie like location, time duration, sets et al). Or A Movie, That I Will Direct Will Be Something Like Something 2…
