To paraphrase a line from Hardik Mehta-s fine humanistic debut releasing this Friday, enjoy Kaamyaab, -aur option hi kya hai?-

Mishraji plays the lead role. Frankly this film couldnt have worked half as much as it does, if it wasnt for Mishraji himself. Theres so much humanism, hovering like a halo over his head, that youre pretty much convinced hes telling his own story. File pi
What-s stuck in my memory of the first time I ever visited a movie set — which was as a child on a family trip to Bombay — isn-t so much about getting a group picture clicked with the superstar Jeetendra in Film City. Couldn-t care as much. It-s actually about sighting a bunch of actors, randomly milling around sipping tea on benches, by a tree. One of whom was actor Jagdish Raj 1928-2013, that no one was even casually turning their head towards.
Don-t know about now, but back then Jagdish Raj held the Guinness Book record for being the world-s most type-cast actor! He-d played the same role of a police inspector over 144 films. There-s a passing reference to Jagdish actually his record in writer-director Hardik Mehta-s heartwarming debut feature, Kaamyaab, which opens in theatres this Friday.
