"Piddly si baatein…!!" :)

Piddly si baatein……

The Television was on….I was walking by….when something hit me…..

 The words, The song….The voice…and…ahem…The Location!! :)

….The Words….catchy, uncommon, evoking curiosity….

….The Song….softly foot tapping music, one that you can sing along with, better than raw rap, soothing to senses I must say :)…

….The Voice…that is one in a billion and can be recognized by any Indian anywhere on the globe. Of course, of course, belonging to who other than the Bollywud Yugpurush, Amitabh Bacchchan. :)

….The Location- ye sabse khatarnaak ha bhailog…Amitji is sitting on The Seat [aasaan bhaasha me…err..Commode!!!]….yes that’s exactly where he is…singing this song, using the Hand-shower as Mike!!! :))))

Lo bolo…hai naa khatarnaak!!!! :)

Amitji says, its this very auspicious seat, ye wo mahaan singhasan hai, that when we sit on, we get all the goodh-gyaaan ki baatein and all sorts of introspections, retrospections etc etc etc coming clearly to our heads………..oh dear!!! :) fir kya bol sakte hain :))))

Bas fir kyat tha, meri restless page-3 aatma se nikal aaya ye [P]review….:)

[P]review, because the movie is yet to be released…on the 6^th of Feb ie…but, yu ki,  sochne wali baat ye hai ki, tab tak rukti toh pet me dard naa hone lagta bhalaa? :))))

Ab aap poochhoge, ki ye Piddly Piddly kya hai, ye Piddly Piddly?

Haan haan poochho poochho…bindaas!! :)

See there are two schools of thought going for the meaning of this slang ;)-

-According to our Amit ji, it means ‘susu jaane ka urge’, haan bhai, he himself said it!! :)

-According to the writer-director R Balki it means trivial, common-place, aiwayi…. :)….maslan, “Piddly see baatein manje, chhoti-moti baatein…”

Chaliye ab zaraa song se hat kar Movie per se pe concentrate karte hain!!

This song belongs to the upcoming R Balki’s,

AMITABH Bacchan-REKHA,

Southie superstar and RAJANI SAAR’s Damaad, DHANUSH,

Kamaal Haasan’s daughter, AKSHARA [who is debuting with this high voltage movie] starrer… “Shamitabh”!!

Ab bolo bhalaa…. Amitabh Bachchan, REKHA!! Rajanikanth, Kamaal Haasan, Dhanush [of Kolaveri fame hereabouts]….Soooo many biggies…associated with one movie!!! Gazzab naa?!! :)

Ab ek aur mazedaar baat batau?...the music in this movie is given by none other than the legendary Ilayaraja saar!!! See I don’t blame you Bollywoodies, if you do not know the greatness of this great person….I’ll let you into the league…he is revered down south as a maestro…

Recently, at the trailer launch the team celebrated and felicitated him for completing no less than…100 aur ek aur zero….ie 1000 movies down south!!!!!

….Kamaal haasan n Rajani Saar declared to have done more than 100 movies with Ilayaraja sir!! Kamaal haasan went on to say how he snatched the event as an opportunity to ‘hug’ Ilayaraja sir, while felicitating him….and how Ilayaraja sir had converted all the songs of one of Kamaal Haasan’s movies that were very ordinary into sure shot hits just by changing the music of them all with absolutely no rerecording. ab samjhe? :)

Pataa hai kya, the gorgeous multitalented Shruti Haasan [kyu naa ho…akhir Shruti jo hai!! ;) ]has done the playback on a peppy, quirky, trendy song for the movie….is song ki ek khaasiyat ye bhi hai, ki it has a female voice playing at the back, Dhanush the Hero performing in it….and so very unlikely for Bollywood…he doesn’t lip-sing, sacchi!!!!! :)…..its really Stereophonic Sannata going all strong there. :)))

Ab wo baat, jiske liye you must all be waiting restlessly…I mentioned the name of none other than Rekha, twice earlier….YES, she IS in the movie!! Though not paired with Amitabh sadly, she’s in a cameo role there and that too with Dhanush!!....siiigh :((

Fir bhi hum toh isi me khush hain ki dono ek hi movie me hain toh kum se kum….ab dekhiye naa, if you ask either, “kya aap Shamitabh me kaam kar rahe ain?” toh dono kaa answer sau fee sadi “Haan”hi aayega, nai kya? ;)

Aur batau…..

Ek minute….kahi aap bore toh nahi ho rahe naa?....nahi hona pleeease….kyuki mai jab tak poori gaathaa bol nai lungi, mere pet me dard hota rahega….aur abhi toh picture release hogi….uske baad fir pet dukha toh? :)

Haan toh mai keh rahi thi ki, thoda newbie cutie pie Akshara ke bare me bhi…while the movie was being made, Balki says he chanced upon her he says he weaved a character around her and she became the Third ‘Hero’ of the movie!!!!!!

She is cute, a bit tomboyish and I get a fair impression why Balki took her for that particular role and I am very sure she’ll be exceptional in it….aur picture release hone ke baad mai pakka bolungi…“Dekkhaa, mai naa keti thi?!!” :)

Akshara says she’s a huge fan of Shahrukh!! Lo bolo Amitji ke saath picture kisi ko mile and she goes gaga over SRK!! Hey Prabhu, ajab teri duniya…gazab tere khel!! :) 

Waise pata hai kya, Akshara ke dil ki hote hote reh gayi!! The role of Dhanush was first offered to SRK himself, but he had qualms about the screen space that he would get in the [omni]presence of Amitabh himself. Sahi bhi hai…at least mai toh srk ki taraf dekhtitch bhi nahi!! :)))

When asked about Kolaveri D and him being a vocalist, Dhanush says he is no singer nor does he want to pursue it professionally. Kolaveri D was an accident and could happen to anyone. Luckily it happened to me. :)

He has copied his Sasurji Rajni Saar’s mannerisms in the movie though that he says we’ll understand after seeing it first hand. Aise vishaalkaay sasurji hone se toh mannerisms apne aap hi aa jaate honge, nai kya? ;)

Aur pata hai…even before the starting of its shooting, Balki and Amitabh did the sound recording of the entire movie….and then after the shooting was over, they did the whole recording all over again!!! Such is the consistence, dedication and resilience of great people!! :)

Talking about the story…the title itself tells it all…..

‘dhanuSHAMITABHbachchan’!!!! :)

Dhanush is Backed by Amitabh Bachchan!! :)

R Balki says he was on his way to Amitji’s house on his birthday when he got stuck in traffic, and in that one hour he conceived this story…so instead of a formal gift he whispered tis story to Big B’s ears and thus Shamitabh came into being!! Kaash sabko traffic me fase fase aise gazab ke khayaalaat aate!!:):)

In it, Dhanush plays a vocally-challenged guy, who is given the voice of Amitabh Bachchan making him a superstar. The stars shine till they are and work together and hell breaks loose when they get caught in ego clashes. Bole toh… “mai hi mai hu…mai hi mai hu…doosaraa koi nahi!” pulls them down.

This story goes on to prove, alone we are nothing…its with the help of many that we achieve what we do…hence we should always be grounded and never forget what others have done and are doing for us to help us stand where we are today!! Jai ho!! :)

Chalo bhai log, bol bol ke thak gayi….now toh I am waiting…haath maste huye…the release of Shamitabh…and what does it have to offer us Bollywood lovers!!

Aap sab bhi dekhna zaroor and then we’ll meet again…

Till then, bye-bye, tata, Ram-Ram, take care, cheerio….from me here at Page-3!!

Keep smiling :)
