Vishal Bhardwaj - TBIP Tête-à-Tête
Вставка
- Опубліковано 9 лют 2025
- The TBIP Tête-à-Tête is a series of in-depth and intimate interviews with film personalities who are critical to this era of filmmaking. It is an attempt to understand their body of work. And their minds. Because who they are intrigues us just as much as what they do. Because what they do is because of who they are. In certain cases, despite who they are. Because integral to the love of cinema is the love of cinema's idols- the chosen few whose mystique remains intact despite the tabloids' obsession with their lives.
Makdee was more than Vishal Bhardwaj's debut feature- it was a promise, a sign of times to come. Times when the line between art and commerce would blur, when we would be treated with real stories, our stories, told in a manner that befits a country obsessed with stories; when literature would enrich our movies again; when cinema will be magic again. Twelve years on Bhardwaj has a come long way in keeping that promise. Getting him to reflect on his journey is an exciting prospect except he strongly dislikes being interviewed formally. Getting him to talk is a Vikram Betal act- ask him a question he really wants to answer and hope he begrudgingly will. An exercise worth it only because the answers are so very fascinating. - Розваги
I was just wondering how i can consider myself in the set of people that grow, live and die in an era...proud to live,grow and die in era of vishal bhardwaj and his films..superb interview..thanks
God! i've seen this interview thrice before maybe. I keep coming back to it always.. It's so good!
I'd just love to listen him talk and talk and talk...
Absolutely!

A very honest interview. Vishal mentioned the influence of Polish director Krzystof (prounced as kristofer) Kieslowski on his mental make-up. I wish if Vishal should come to Poland to make some nice quiet movie a la Kieslowski.

Also wanted to add..........when Vishal talked about no political films made in India. I'd like to mention the 1976 Marathi film Sinhasan written by Vijay Tendulkar and directed by Jabbar Patel. It did not have any sub-scripts of romance and was purely about politics and was a hugely impactful film much appreciated by Marathi audiences.
Take a bow, TBIP. You guy's make the best kind of interviews unlike most bollywood websites.Would appreciate it if you could put out content more often.
Am a big fan of TBIP and am always eagerly checking up on what's new. Vishal Bharadwaj's interview today was an absolute treat. His interviews are very rare and loved how Pragya explored his psyche as a artist and his approach towards his craft. Very intelligent interviewing, very insightful and pure joy !!
This endeavor deserves a huge applause......especially when compared to the usual Bollywood interviews which are about what pranks are played on the sets/ who is 'good friends' with whom/ who they would like to have a gay encounter with etc.....
Would love to see Pragya interviewing Gulzar, Shyam Benegal (before we lose these gems) and of the current lot Konkana sen sharma, Amir Khan, Nasseruddin Shah, ImTiaz Ali, Rekha Bharadwaj, Amit Trivedi, Vidya balan and many more .....................
Love these interviews. Please do more. Vishal seems such an honest filmmaker and it really shows in his movies.
I agree with a comment below.. please do one with Kamal Haasan.
He is so humble and down to earth and gave a good glimse of his thought process. So awesome. Loved Makdee, Omkara
Absolutely brilliant interview. Thank you for doing this and uploading it. It is apparent the amount of conflict and emotions that is going on inside Vishal. It is also interesting to hear his views on cinematographers, editors and basically anyone who interacts with the creative aspects of his films. He wants all of them to leave him alone. I hope he goes on to make the kind of cinema that he loves and does not need to justify it to anyone. It takes special skill to take great literary work and interpret it in modern context and that's where he was at his best. Matru and Kaminey which may be so called original were really sad films. Hope he has some great years ahead of him because Indian cinema needs him.
Thoughtful questions and insightful answers. Insightful questions and thoughtful answers....overall a great interview.
At about 58:28 the interviewer asks a question about the moral universe of Vishal Bhardwaj' s stories that how different his moral universe was from the moral universe of Shakespeare which was very much in tune with Victorian time. Shakespeare wrote in Elizabethan Era when Victorian time was still away by about three centuries...
Lovely. Got a few insights about how a true auteur's mind works. Thanks for the upload.
I would love to hear abhishek chaubey and dibakar banerjee talk about their views on world and all things irrelevant
What a beautiful interview with a thoughtful celebrity. So refreshing
Great interview, brilliant insight into Vishal's thought process and life.
waiting for anurag kashyap and rajat kapoor, plz make this.
TBIP pls try to bring in kamal haasan....even on a 3 min interview kamal haasn sir pours u with soo much info...it would be fab to see him here....
Vishal says in the end that he wants to explore Kiewslowski by making quiet films, extraordinary conflict in an ordinary life etc., but I thought Kiewslowski was already explored by creating the pink buffalo, an equivalent of "the watcher" from Decalog..
Wonderful interview. Please keep at it.
Please bring- Sudhir Mishra, Mani Ratnam, Anurag Kashyap, Sajid Khan, Anurag Basu, Rajat Kapoor, and more directors.
Wait. Sajid Khan?
Devarsi Ghosh Although Sajid Khan is bad filmmaker, he is a film buff and has great sense of humor (although that doesn't reflect in his movies). It would be fun for sure.
Yeah you are right. He's indeed a mad film buff. I see now where you are going...
wow the ending❤💓

adding background color..and more lights might have given more exciting.
