They have done better by giving them entirely free shows. Thousands of our soldiers have seen several Indian pictures free during the last two months.

I think "Padosi" will be the finest production of this year. Do you agree with me?
I know it has one of the finest stories the screen ever had. I know that it is in the hands of the best Indian director and yet unless I see the picture, I cannot say that it will be the best picture of the year. Picture making is a strange occupation and no one can say, not even its maker, what a certain picture will ultimately turn out to be.

Where is Rose and what is her address?
The last time I saw her was at the Poona Race Course on the Governor's Cup Day, but that is hardly an address.

What was the reason of burning down the New Theatres' studio?
It wasn't burnt down, it caught fire. But the studio is quite safef only a couple of old films were burnt out. You don't object to that. Do you?
What is the name of Naseem's husband? As far as I know^ she is not married.

Why do some of the film journalists continuously write against Ranjit, Chandulal Shah and his pictures? Do you think, it is fair?
When people write against some one intentionally, then it is either due to an inferiority complex peculiar to the writer or because the writer has an axe to grind. For organizing the Indian Motion Picture Congress successfully, a task no one but Chandulal dared to undertake, Chandulal Shah jumped Into prominence not only as an efficient organizer but as a polished platform speaker. This disturbed the bile of several film writers. Didn't Chandulal poach on their preserves of intellectual pursuits? It was too much for several five-foot writers who began an underground crusade against Ranjit^ forgetting that the tremendous success of the Film Journalists' Conference at the Congress was also due to the untiring efforts and full support of Chandulal. In fact, it was between Chandulal and myself that a new status for film journalists was evolved for the future. Only two years back, the lot of the smaller type of writers was pitiable. No one wanted them in the studios and no one ever noticed their existence. All that has changed now. And thanks to Chandulal Shah who championed and chaperoned the cause of the journalists, knowing fully well that some of them would turn round and bite the hand that fed them. Risk is a part of Chamlulal's life and he doesn't care even now when
