Never in my wildest dreams I imagined that the director of Roma and Children of Men will ever (Executive) produce a Marathi movie. ❤️
Executive producer. And your wildest dreams should be in touch with the news that Chaitanya was doing an apprenticeship with Alphonse during Roma.
@@am_i_elliot i know dude. But isn't it a big deal.. ❤️
@@rupeshs7378 ya. I mean, him collaborating on any Indian-language project would have made me just as happy :)
Cinema is in itself a language.
@@am_i_elliot agree. As Bong JoonHo said. ❤️
Alfonso Cuaron also made Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Sumitra Bhave who has given background voice to this film has passed away today morning, a big loss for Marathi films. RIP
She was best🙏🙏
May her soul rest in peace🙏🙏
🙏
Considering the films Chaitanya has made so far, Oscar is not far away. Not that Oscar is the ultimate recognition but because that's the language most people speak.
The Oscar is very far away. Have you seen what kind of films win that award? Or even get nominated. It’s faaaar away. And that’s good I think.
"Medicine, law, business, engineering, these are all noble pursuits, and
necessary to sustain life. But poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for."
Alfanso Cuaron producer of Marathi Film.. that's big leap in Marathi industry. Not bollywood or south film industry but Marathi industry. I hope Marathi film will get more recognition on International film community

Chaitanya, thank you for existing.
YES Cuaron's answer to her "accessibility" question felt so EARNEST! It's just so crazy to see how little mainstream critics know about the artistic process of creation, how honest it must be.
It is truly a pat of encouragement on the back of the Marathi cinema that a globally renowned director like Alfonso Cuaron is producing a Marathi film. And you will surprised to know that Chaitanya admitted that Alfonso has actually read 'Dnyaneshwari' the Marathi translation of the Bhagvat Gita , which the former himself hadn't read. So it clearly speaks volumes of the fact that the Marathi cinema is indeed capable of transcending boundaries. Moreover, this is also a heartfelt gesture by the director of films like Harry Potter 3, Roma, Children of Men and Gravity of which we all are big fans of. Thank you Sir.
What a great human being Alfonso cuaron is, to speak so much about the other person and so less about himself.

As a mexican and a fan of indian cinema this fills my heart ❤
Feeling fortunate and blessed to be part of the film.
Harry Potter 3 will always be my favorite! Love Alfonso!!
Anupama is severly panicked from inside and the nervousness on the face is palpable. .hence the words coming out are also not very crisp and the voice is shaken a bit, very unlike her.Totally starstruck and awestruck by the great Alfonso so understandable...Great going FC!!!
alfonso cuaron on film companion! Nice work guys
Love Chaitanya & his films ❤️❤️ more power to you man
The Disciple is masterpiece. Art & Life lovers must watch.
One of the best directors! Very realistic portrayal of events in films.
Oh my god.. ladies and gentlemen the great Alfonso Cuaron in the house 🤩🤩
Chaitanya one of the gems in indian cinema ..... Not like todays new generation balloons ....meditative movies ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Well..Cuaron clearly got a lot of respect for Chaitanya🥺✨
Chaitanya Tamhane, the face of the Indian New Wave? 😏🔝✨
Not until people line up for films like Radhe
@@sanky369 people of India should boycott those craps
If he enters Bollywood, I am damn sure he will match the level of "Rajkumar Hirani"
@@sanky369 true
@@sahildiwe1386 well.. Chaitanya's movies are mainly arthouse while Hirani is more mainstream..
Chaitanya won't be able to draw crowds as hirani in our country..
Tho he'll find major success in international film festivals..
A big applause to Chaitanya even with such big producer putting his money in his movie, he chose to do it in Marathi and not in Hindi or English
Waiting eagerly for the disciple.
Truly amazing. Best wishes Chaitanya.
Anupama - you are a master class in conducting interviews. You question without intruding and manage to balance an amicable connection with the arrogant (read Karan Johar) along with the down to earth, honest !
मी लिहिलेल्या चित्रपटाचे दिग्दर्शन चैतन्य ताम्हाने यांनीच करावे, वास्तव दर्शी चित्रपट खुप उत्कृष्ट पने बनवतात, वेब सिरीज तर खुप छान बनवतील
EXPECTO PATRONUM!!!
this was a wonderful, thought provoking movie.. needed some patience initially but rewarding in the end.
Wowww. What an incredible feat!
The first time I saw Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban back in the day I was transfixed how beautiful it was. Those long shots, those haunting music, the magical scene where Harry rides buckbeak. It was something so special and so beautiful. As the film transition from childhood to teenage fantasies of all the characters, I also grew up with its uniqueness. Thank you for that film. And not to mention Gravity, Roma and Children of men. Thank you Alfanso Cuarón for all these masterpieces.
Certainly set the tone for next Harry Potter movies
Chaitanya arguably most intelligent film maker of our times,my fierce prediction - Anupama Chopra will soon have the honour to sit him down with his next producer - CHRIS NOLAN
culture creates civilization! amazing!
Great interview 👍
The disciple is an masterstroke by Chaitanya Tamhane . An extraordinary story ,screenplay and mind gripping scene. And very thankful to him and his vision towards cenima.I have been an followed Alfanso Cuarón Chaitanya Tamhane films from a long time.
Hope ,more cinematic art is more to come over by your side.🙏
Where did you watched it?
@@rupeshs7378 virated site
@@harshpatil3467 then you don't deserve the bhasan you wrote above the movie. Piracy is illegal. You are nullyfying the efforts artists have put. You could have waited and saw it on Netflix on 30th April.
@@harshpatil3467 bhai abhi tak release hi nhi hua hai? How come you watched it 3 times??
@@rupeshs7378 you are going in my mind just shut up and I am the not the only one who watched the movie on virated site. I don't need your advice or stupid speech.
I wanted to watch so I watched it,you don't have any right to blame me. This much, I apologize again,and I don't care what you are thinking about me .so just chill. Don't waste your time. 😏
Anupma you said u rewatch movie where you watch it., .. Why I miss 😭🤔

Why is this re-uploaded
Farhan Khan apparently very angry by the interviewer's dress.
👍🏻
Just an observation; Chaitanya looks a lil like Tanmay Bhat na🤔 or is it just me😋
He does, doesnt he?
If u see some of the bts photos of Chaitanya on set where he is in his natural environment then in those he looks exactly like Tanmay
Funnily, The way latin and Mexicans are treated in Hollywood is the same way bollywood treats marathi and ghati folks, said this cause it had to be said
Ironically bollywood is infamous for stealing content and producing similar commercial non sense while regional cinema including Marathi cinema is producing story oriented content.
Chaitu is lion
This film is made by Chaitanya Tamhane whose first Marathi movie Court ( albeit much acclaimed at film festivals ) enraged me so much, for making a fool of me. I felt insulted about some one’s ability to take a serious film goer like me, for granted to this level.
Even K Bapiyaa and KC Bokadia had not done this to me ( viewer like me ) in such pretentious manner. At least they were upfront about it, when they made Mawali and Raja Babu type of films.
Chaitanya is at it again in his latest movie The Disciple , and he takes the viewer granted for one more time, and this time more boldly and brazenly and with coldness.
This movie is overhyped , pretentious, the narrative is sluggish and comes from the mindset of a director who wants your total submission at the cost of your attention and more importantly sacrificing & destroying every possibility of entertaining the viewer.
The result is a disastrously made movie which neither entertains and nor engages.
This is a typical film festival movie which is backed by a solid name like Alfanso Curaon who made Gravity and Roma and he is the producer of this movie too.
So, such brand name has ensured its visibility in many international film festivals and no one dare criticize it due to such heavy name backing it up.
Even Anupma Chopra was very guarded about being critical of this film, and she sort of shied away from using harsh words, which she is otherwise not afraid of using on films like Radhe.
This movie is full of long and wide shots which Chaitanya used in his movie court too, with an intention to bring theatrical perspective to the story, but with very little effect to the viewing experience or giving any dimension to the director’s vision.
Slow continuous still shots of 2 to 3 minutes with regular intervals on empty streets of Mumbai with long monologues or long duration classical mehfils shots of the protagonist depicting his struggle to strive at the artform, only make this experience thoroughly boring and jarring.
Such long shots make this film so long, that they work further against its shallow content and its stiff upper lip type approach to its presentation.
Javed saab had shared an anecdote about two types of films that are guaranteed to be definitely boring -
First type - मैं मेरी फिल्म से आपको कुछ सिखाने वाला हूँ -
Second type - आप ने ऐसी फिल्म पहले कभी देखी नहीं है .
I am going to add the third type to it - That you submit yourself to me (the film maker) and watch my film.
The disciple qualifies in all three types.
Just avoid it.
u wrote what u wanted to say in Chaitanya Tamhane's style..... long... repeatative... sticking to one point only... it felt as if u wanted everyone to "Submit themseves to u". SO Well done Chaitanya... Movies having impact.
@@MrKumar2050 I remember Javed saab telling me that in the same year that the sholay was released , a film called Jai santoshi Maa made on a budget of Rs 30 Lacs that time made a box office collection of 8 Cr. That does not make it a great movie. Point is that - There are two types of Indian movie goers - One santoshi Maa types and second one Disciple / court movie goers - One is for zero intellect class & second one for those pretentious ones , who claim or feel entitled to be having higher IQ class . let them be. I am the Hrishida / Basu Chatterjee / shyam Benegal viewer. The middle order viewer who is unpretentious and loves good cinema without any pretentions.
@@gmilind Genuinely think, what if The Lover of 'Jai Santoshi Ma' film, said, u like 'Hrishida / Basu Chatterjee films' to show case the world that you are a Intellectual viewer?
Bahubali lovers criticize Court n Court Lovers criticize Bahubali, which is not required.
Some like Veg, some like Non Veg, it should be as simple as that.
Yes, there are some Bad/ overrated films we come across, at times, but most of the times if the person is saying "I Love this movie" we should respect his love (without judging his intellectual).
By the way, I too Like Hrishida / Basu Chatterjee / shyam Benegal's work, "Bharat Ek Khoj" moved me each time, even as a child.
I also loved Bahubali and Court as well. (Have not seen "jai Santoshi Maa" but if i watch n like, I would not feel ashamed to say "I Loved it".) And lastly, about "The Desciple", I liked it, not as much as "Court" but i liked. And I hardly like 3 films out of 10.
@@MrKumar2050 now u have come to the point . As a viewer , I have the right and prerogative to like a film or dislike a film . Just to reaffirm what you have said - liking disciple does not make one intellectual and liking Bahubali does not make some one autistic and mentally challenged .
I have some IIT educated friends who dislike movies of Shyam benegal and hrishida but liked bahubali and they loved sarka ले khatiya जाडा लगे movies of Govinda .
Everyone has a right to have his opinion .
I hold the opinion of disciple being an average movie and all. shyam benegal movies as world class cinema.
Or for that matter the Marathi movie नाळ by Nagraj मंजुळे which was released 2 years ago is the world class cinema which strikes the balance between a narrative that holds you, challenges your sensibilities , and yet entertains you without being pretentious .
Non pretentiousness is the one trait I look for in any film .
Others may be okay with this trait 👍
Do you have a personal vendetta against Chaitanya, you are shitting with the same message in every video of "The Desciple" with a copy-paste message. What's the deal?
I feel like 'pure cinema' is being conflated only with movies that are slow and somber. Personally, I find that to be a fallacy.
The disciple was great, no doubt about it but it was great and 'pure' not because it was slow, but because it executed what it set out to do well enough. To that end, any film, be it a superhero movie or science-fiction adventure or another film like The disciple, to me is 'pure cinema' if it executes what it sets out to do really well.
This idea of only slow, somber, introspective movies being 'pure cinema' is such an elitist and pretentious way of thinking I feel.
WHY R U NOT POSTING ANY VIDEO OF KARtik AryAN & KARaN JOHAR FALL Out........AGAIN YOU R SUPPORTING KARAN JOHAR.............YOU DID NOT SPEAK ANYTHING IN FAVOUR OF SUSHANT & NOW NOTHING IN FAVOUR OF KARTIK............YOU ARE THE BIGGEST NEPOTISM INFLUENCER..........JALANKHOR PRODUCER KI BIWI
Here Indian regional movies have just started getting the recognition they deserve and you want them to talk about non sensical and irrelevant topics like kartik vs karan.........slow claps.
@@hemantsakunde6652 You moron you find this nonsensical ??? They how the hell they can say its a bollywood channel........they dont deserve claps , but slapps
@@Aksshaymittal91 It's "Film Companion" - the channel is about films, and not just Bollywood movies and celebs. And I totally agree with Hemant's comment.
