M*7, 1946 FILM INDI A SANTO SH KUMAR SHTJKLA (Cawnpore) When film stars die, do their bodies undergo medical post-mortem? We can't risk that these days with stars having swallowed a lot of black market money. What will be your response to a girl who declares, "I will be reduced to the necessity of killing myself with a dagger if Patel refuses me"? I have been waiting all my life for some girl to die for me. The only girl who did so once was my mother and out of disgust The girl who does it next will get a statue erected in her memory. PRITHVI PAUL SINGH (Lahore) Do girls also dream of boys, as the boys do? A girl dreams of a boy, the boy dreams of girls. But these dreams never come true. Would you care to let me know the ways of trapping a girl? Ft To the fishing rod of your character, fix the bait of sincere love and see if you get a bite. K P. SHUKLA (Cawnpore) What can we expect from Mr. Walli after his "Ladv Doctor"? ' Strangely enough he has got hold of a good story called "Dekhoji" and Mumtaz is responding wonderfully in it They say that for the first time she sits with back to the wall and face towards Wall i. MISS SAKENA BEGG (Lucknow) What is the difference between Urdu and Hindustani? Urdu is a provincial tongue, while Hindustani is the nation's language. JAGDISH KOHLI (Lahore) Woman is like a snake, charming as well as venomous' Venom is not the monopoly of women only. We have plenty of male cobras in different colours. The human being is an ungrateful worm and often bites the hand that feeds it. Where then is the sense in running the woman down, seeing what man has done to man through ages? HUKAM OH AND GUPTA (New Delhi) Will "filmindia" explain, a ladv is either a saint or a devil' Don't mix up things. A lady is iust a woman and that is more than the saint or the devil put toge P MODLEY (Karachi) Which woman would vou prefer: the onc that loves you or the one you love and respect? In the world of emotions, I believe in the giveand-take policy. 1NILA PERSHAD (Delhi) If Pri'hviraj can act so beautifully on the stage, there V no reason why he shouldn't give good acting in pictures also' The eye compromises, the lens does not. And that is why Prithvi's bulk looks ungainly on the screen. On the screen the artiste is seen in snatches and bits and the bits have to be attractive. On the stage, the actor is a part of a big canvas, all the wlvlc before your eyes. The stage helps to rover the defects with colour and dimensions. The screen accentuates them.
