The true identity of a director’s ability comes when the cinema made by him appears to the people not as he has made it, but as he had planned to show it. There is a very small difference between these two things, and people who understand this small difference often make such cinema which leaves an impression on people. Today we are going to tell you about a director who gave many films, but then made a film which raised questions on his ability.
The film ‘Ganpat’, released in the year 2023, was a big budget film from which people really had expectations, however after watching this film people held their heads. Many people said after watching the film that the director himself was confused as to what he was making? Tiger Shroff, made with a big budget of Rs 150 crore, got badly thrashed despite having an actor like Amitabh Bachchan. But the director of this film, Vikas Bahl has also given some such films which are remembered even today.
Today, on Vikas’s 53rd birthday, we tell you about some of his wonderful films which you must have seen.
Chillar Party (2011)
Today’s generation may not remember Chillar Party, released in 2011, but for many people this film holds a cult status. This film is also special for Vikas because it was the first film of his directorial career. In the film, the mutual friendship of some children has been shown in a very sweet way which touches you deeply. Ranbir Kapoor has also given a guest appearance in a song ‘Teri Taayen Taayen Fis’ of this film.
Queen (2014)
Vikas was the director of Queen, one of the most successful films of actress Kangana Ranaut’s career. He also had a lot of contribution in writing this film. Queen is still seen as a great female centric film. This film achieved that position as a female lead, which many films have not been able to do even today.
Super 30 (2019)
Super 30 is a great biopic inspired by the real life of teacher Anand Kumar. Hrithik played the role of Anand in the film. This character is considered to be one of the best roles played by Hrithik today.
Goodbye (2022)
Although very few people know this film, Goodbye has its own specialty. The film touches a topic which is not talked about much. The story of this film about someone’s departure from the life of a loved one and freeing oneself from his/her memories has been played by its actors so beautifully that you will not be able to live without crying. The film has many stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Rashmika Mandanna, Neena Gupta.
Devil (2024)
Shaitan, released this year, was a low-budget film but still people liked it a lot, and the simple reason for this was the strong star cast of the film. Madhavan played the role of a villain in the film and what an amazing job he did. Apart from this, Ajay Devgan, Jyotika and Janaki Bodiwala have also done a great job. The film was a Hindi remake of the Gujarati film Vash.
Apart from this, Vikas has been a part of many excellent films. He is also a producer and screenplay writer. Vikas has also been the associate producer of ‘Udaan’ and ‘Dev D’. Apart from this, he has also produced great films like ‘Lootera’, ‘Hunter’, ‘Hasee Toh Phasee’, ‘Udta Punjab’ and ‘Trapped’.
