November, 1945 mother, it is not necessary to carry the burden in the womb for nine months. Motherhood is more a spiritual tie than a physical relationship. K. M. MURTHY (Paiforce) It is said that you receive money for writing good reviews in "filmindia"? Then I should be actually starving now seeing that good reviews rarely appear in "filmindia." Do you have a character reference ? Oh yes. I stay in my father's house. I have been married 23 years. Have some children. I own a few houses, I am a member of several clubs. I own some race horses and wear sharkskin bush shirts. I possess a couple of cars. Know a lot of rich and big people as friends. I swank a lot and deftly throw my weight about. Doesn't all this contribute to the character reference you want ? Well, this is the usual fare quoted in the present world. M. U. R DOOLI (Allahabad) Do you mind calling Mahatma Gandhi your "Bapu"? Gandhiji is the father of a nation. Not one but 400 millions should call him "Bapu". That is one father whose spiritual stature can't be denied. P. L. MANMOHAN (Amritsar) Suppose you notice a girl more charming than Sushila Rani, what would you do ? I would get my eyes examined immediately. S N. MANDAL (Allahabad) What do you do when you feel lonely ? FILMINDIA I never feel lonely. A million thoughts keep me company. And I have a thousand memories in addition. When the mind is crowded where is the loneliness ? N. S. PHATARPEKAR (Bombay) Of late I have been suffering from insomnia. Kindly recommend to me some local film to cure my insomnia at once ? "Maharathi Kama" is a good and mild hypnotic. But if you need a strong dope, purchase a copy of "Panna Dai" and screen it every night an hour before bed-time. The picture is almost lethal in its effect and you might survive only two reels for years to come. L. N. RAO (Adoni) Why are the producers producing rotten pictures ? Because rotters see them. SAHDEO S. CHOUDHERY (Lucknow) Can love between a college boy and a college girl last long ? Yes, a little longer if the flame continues to burn after the college days. Every love needs a little seasoning in real life to survive numerous acid tests of the present times. The college is an institution for day-dreams. With parents footing the bills, love becomes an easy adventure. The test comes when the dawn brings home the grocer. Then day-dreams become so many nightmares and love an irksome emotion.
