Starting today, a chunk of Vidhu Vinod Chopra's films will be released theatrically as part of a retrospective, for those who want to experience his cinema on the big screen all over again.
Films like Parinda, 1942 A Love Story, Pareenita, Kareeb, Mission Kashmir, Munnabhai MBBS, Lage Raho Munnabhai and 3 Idiots will be showcased. A source tells us that the production house will celebrate a retrospective of their films made in the last 30 years.
"The movies will be screened nationally from today till April 4. But the interesting part is that several eminent film makers will moderate a creative discussion after every film is screened, in Juhu. It's an innovative step to encourage good cinema. Filmmakers like Sudhir Mishra, S Raghavan, Rohan Sippy, Imtiaz Ali, Balki and Ram Madhvani will be a part of this initiative," informs the source.
Apparently, the production house had to restore some of the films visually as well as the sound because of the time lapse since they were first made. But they're very happy with the result.
