I have so may questions from people that remember Masoom. It was my first film and get surprised that people remember it so much. I must start blogging about my experiences from it. I picked up though, the following extract from a recent interview with Naseeruddin Shah which evoked old memories of old times, old friends ….<\/p>\n
\nThe following extract is from ‘Times Now’ :
\nAG: I remember ?Masoom?. I was a child when I was taken for the film. I still don’t know why I was taken to see ?Masoom? but….
\nNS: But for some reason everybody showed their children ?Masoom?… to prepare the ground I guess.
\nAG: Maybe it was because of Jugal Hansraj?
\nNS: He was angelic. ?Masoom? in fact was after ?Sparsh?. It was wonderful. I went into it with an attitude of great patronage because Shekhar Kapur at that time was nothing but a failed actor and boy friend of Shabana, you know… and I thought “oh poor Shekhar… he wants to make a movie and let?s help him out”.
\nBut with the very first shot that was taken in that movie, I revised my opinion of Shekhar Kapur as a film maker and realised that I was in very safe hands and that this was going to be a very wonderful movie. I felt that from the very first shot that he did. There’s a shot of an envelope that’s the letter I received, and then there is a tracking shot of my hand with the envelope as I am walking down the office corridor and from that moment onwards ?Masoom? was a total joy. And there are very few movies which have been like that,
\nThank you Naseer for those kind words.
\nShekhar
