How to judge motion pictures from the view points of art and entertainment ?
The average film-goer does not need the trained eye of the critic, who often demands more than is presented on the screen. To the film-goer anything that is pleasant to the eye is artistic enough and anything that does not bore should be entertaining enough.
K. SANJIVA SHETTY (Mangalore)
Why some of the film actresses, though they are old, act like young girls ?
When the fifty-year old Shantaram can hop about like a kangaroo carrying the baby-faced Jayashree in his pouch, why deny the privilege to women who are at best idols of vanity?
K. S. SATYANARAYANA (Bangalore)
I want to forget the world for a few moments What remedy would you suggest for this purpose?
See "Gvalan" produced by me. It will take you to an unreal world of romance, and music in which all the miseries of the world are placed at the door of a young and beautiful women. It is the tallest yarn a man ever told and though I tell it I have never believed it.
D. BLUE (Waltair)
How will the Indian film industry respond to the Congress call in the final struggle for freedom?
The Indian film industry seems to have got all the freedoms the way I find any street pedlar producing a motion picture. What further freedom can be <jir< >i to such dangerously free people?
MISS INDU SETHI (Karachi)
You should always write "Jai Hind" on the top of "Editor's Mail" Section ?
/ don't believe in these slogans. "Jai Hind" is a slogan very much in advance of reality and im mediately you raise it. it is drowned by the clank of chains of our bondage. Till we become free, "Jai Hind" must remain the rosiest dream of a slave.
Kr. RAJENDRA SINGH (Agra)
Suppose all your readers slop reading "fihnindia" what will you do?
/ have yet to come across a smgle person with that stiff backbone. Reading "filmindia" is like eating opium.
Which is sweeter in a woman: her heart or her kiss?
When a woman is in love she brings her heart on her lips. But when she is not, there is only art on them.
MISS S BABY (Bangalore)
Do stars suffer from love-sickness? If so, when?
They get occasional attacks and you see the symptoms on the race-course or in joint productions. TJte malady is not yet known to be fatal, the period of incubation being the time required for the first picture, and the duration of the active stage lasting about two pictures. Your answers to certain questions in the April
issue would make young ladies blush. Is it the same
with men. I wonder?
But they wear trousers. If all the world was Eden and all the women angels, what would the men do?
Neena will be seen on the screen in the title role of "Mirabai," a Shalimar picture.
