	Films of Anand Patwardhan
		The film is framed by the murder of Mahatma Gandhi in 1948, an act whose portent and poignancy remains undiminished half a century later.
		The film moves on to examine the costs being extracted from citizens in the name of national security.
		“This film by India’s leading documentary filmmaker is so important that one could justify its requirement as part of the education of all high school students and undergraduates in America… The power of the film derives from its brilliant cinematography and narration, its juxtaposition of points of view and its total honesty.

	Anand film buyers hit jackpot - Telugu cinema news - idlebrain.com
		Producer Sekhar Kammula offered Anand to entire Nizam territory for 5 lakhs on MG basis (MG basis means that the producer and distributor would share the amount it collected beyond 5 lakhs by 50/50).
		If somebody bought Anand before the film’s release for 5 lakhs on MG basis, he would have minted a profit of 45 lakhs, which is 9 times the investment in just 50 days.
		On the whole, Anand film stood as a big moral support and is giving confidence to the new film directors who want to make sensible films.

	Harvard Film Archive September-October Anand Patwardhan
		Winner of the International Critics’ Prize at the Sydney Film Festival, where it was recognized “for its blending of crusading passion [and] intellectual rigor,” War and Peace presents a timely exploration of the India-Pakistan conflict in Kashmir and the volatile admixture of religion, patriotism, and nuclear armament that underpins it.
		Filmed over three tumultuous years in India, Pakistan, Japan, and the United States, this epic documentary is a journey that seeks out efforts for peace in the face of global militarism as it transforms the particulars of the conflict into a universal statement against violence and nationalism.
		Framing the film with the murder of Mahatma Gandhi in 1948, Patwardhan injects a measure of sorrow into his study of the subcontinent’s trajectory toward unabashed militarism and nuclear testing.

		While Dev Anand, 12 years his senior, has been named the winner of the prestigious Dadasaheb Phalke Award for the year 2002, it is obvious that the honour has come to the Mumbai industry's evergreen hero two decades too late, almost as an afterthought.
		One of Dev Anand's contemporaries, a key member of the committee that nominates the Phalke Award winner, was reported to be vehemently opposed to his name being approved.
		Dev Anand is a rare individual - the kind who by sheer dint of his lasting contribution to the medium has elevated himself to the level of an institution.

		The 71-year-old, brother of equally popular film star Dev Anand, was brought to Leelavati Hospital on February 21 and admitted to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU), after he suffered a massive cardiac arrest.
		Vijay Anand's claim to fame was his proposal that the screening of pornographic films be granted legal status in designated theatres around the country in order to satiate the growing need for adult entertainment and bolster revenue generation.
		For Vijay Anand's steadfast refusal to make formula films his stock in trade was an anticipation of the multiplex era at least a decade and half before it actually occurred.

	Manas: Culture, Indian Cinema-Anand Patwardhan
		Anand Patwardhan is probably India’s most distinguished, and certainly one of its most controversial, documentary filmmakers; he has no peer among those working in the socialist tradition.
		He is consistently India’s "representative" at documentary film festivals around the world, and his films have won numerous awards at such festivals in Toronto, Vancouver, Mannheim, Cannes, Sydney, and elsewhere; he has also won, in India, the National Award and the Filmfare Award on more than one occasion.
		Over the years, Patwardhan’s films have been subjected to censorship by the Indian state, and his most recent film, Jang aur Aman ("War and Peace", 2002), celebrated at the Mumbai International Film Festival, has been refused a certificate for general screening since Patwardhan has understandably stated his unwillingness to accommodate the censor’s demands for cuts.

	Anand
		Anand (Rajesh Khanna), who was suffering from the final stages of cancer, first came to Dr. Prakash Kulkarni (Ramesh Deo), a close friend of Bhaskar.
		Up to Anand, though Hrishikesh Mukherjee had arrived following Anari (1959) and Anuradha (1960) and was making films round the clock, barring a stray Asli Naqli (1962), Anupama (1966), Ashirwaad (1968) and Satyakam (1969) which had their strong moments, many of his films were largely adequate and no more.
		Anand's address of Bhaskar as 'Babumoshai' was replete with affection, warmth and had a teasing note to it.

	Meet Anand Tucker, Hollywood director
		The film brought Oscar nominations to Emily Watson and Rachel Griffith and became a modest art-house hit.
		It was inspired by the true story of two sisters, one of who is the world-famous cellist Jacqueline Du Pre, who lost her ability to play music because of multiple sclerosis that eventually took her life in the mid-1980s.
		It was in that film that I came to admire the magic that wonderful actors bring to a screenplay — and that realisation remains with me forever.

	EKTA - Anand Patwardhan
		We, therefore, urge institutions and organizers of film screenings in the US and abroad to resist the efforts by those who wish to silence the debate and to carry on in their efforts to make the films of Anand Patwardhan accessible to the public.
		Anand Patwardhan's commitment to questioning the staggeringly inappropriate authority the Indian state imposes on citizens, to questioning those who make use of sectarian violence towards political ends, is unwavering.
		Showing Anand's films is one of the few ways in which those people can perhaps wake up, and see that the movement / ideology they are propagating is a mere facade, designed to divide communities and instigate hatred to achieve political gains.

	Untitled Document
		The film is dedicated to “the city of Bombay”; (which however is not seen much except in the credit sequence) and to Raj Kapoor—a more plausible connection, since the title character’s brand of manic bonhomie suggests the overbearing screen persona for which Kapoor was famous.
		Anand, at least, has the excuse that he’s terminally ill and trying to drink life to the dregs, and he occasionally reflects on his own behavior—as when he remarks to his physician early in the film, “Whether you live seventy years or six months, life needs to be big, it doesn’t need to be long.”
		Anand is preceded by a letter from a Delhi physician describing his terminal illness—a rare form of stomach cancer.

		Anand is a simple story but the treatment given to the theme and is artistic.
		The rest of the story is about why Anand - MD of the richest corporate house of AP - has chosen to reside as neighbor of Roopa and what follows next.
		To be frank It’s been years since Telugu film industry saw a film that portrays heroine as an independent girl who does not follow hero’s footsteps to get a glimpse of him and sing songs with him.

		Director Anand Tucker, best known for the stirring Hilary and Jackie, is a versatile talent, equally at home in the wilds of Los Angeles as he is in the English countryside.
		Tucker manages to keep his film moving along at a breezy clip while exploring its deeper nuances.
		The issues that arise when an older man meets a younger woman are the heart and soul of this film, which goes well beyond the superficial into a finely shaded examination of a May-September romance.

	Bawandar (2001) - Channel 4 Film review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Anand's film takes on a range of issues rarely tackled in Indian film.
		For the most part he approaches its subject matter sensitively and though some have criticised the film for playing fast and loose with the facts, this is still a powerfully emotive drama.
		Eventually her cause is taken up by the world's media (Anand first read about the story in 'The Guardian') but remains calm, dignified and committed to justice.

	OFFOFFOFF film review BAWANDAR (Sandstorm) Indian movie by Jagmohan Anand, Jag Mundhra with Nandita Das, Gulshan ...
		Devi encounters bureaucratic inertia in the nearby city when she tries to get action on her claim, and most officials are in no hurry to prosecute members of a high caste and more likely to blame her husband for failing to protect her.
		She struggles to maintain her dignity, insisting that rape dishonors the perpetrators rather than the victim, and the film follows her case through the court process and into the political arena.
		The film is worth seeing for the way it opens a window into a far-removed reality; just watch for the core story and disregard the filmmaker's blatant manipulations.

	Amazon.com: Shopgirl: DVD: Anand Tucker,Steve Martin,Claire Danes,Jason Schwartzman,Bridgette Wilson,Sam ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Schwartzman would walk away with film if not for the perfectly cast leads: Martin does another smart turn away from his wild-and-crazy moniker, Danes has never been better in an Oscar-worthy performance, and Bridgette Wilson-Sampras aces her role as a hot-to-trot co-worker of Mirabelle's.
		The film's modest success as a romance is due almost entirely to Danes.
		Having seen this film, with its emotionally distant older man and a wise beyond her years younger woman, I appreciate that behind the jokes we tell and stereotypes we cling to are people and stories of beautiful and sensitive complexity.
