As per my view, Tara already explained to Ved after his proposal, "since I came from Corsica, you are always with me" that means she is never alone. She always thought that Ved is with her. <br />What do you think ?Aditya Jainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13549827292335122602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510041980458050293.post-85062333275639162812021-09-01T07:26:23.272-07:002021-09-01T07:26:23.272-07:00Movie Tamasha has so many references to Dev Anand ...Movie Tamasha has so many references to Dev Anand movies.<br /><br /><br />The first one is the acting done by Ved in the matargashti song, where he tries to imitate Dev Anand and also right after the song where he tries to help Tara with her luggage.<br />The above one is clearly visible in the movie but what is more fascinated is where the storyteller is indirectly giving the reference to the great Dev Aand like-<br /><br />1) Tamasha was also the name of Dev Anand movie 1952.<br />2) Ved the character played by Ranbir is opposite of the name Dev , Ved Dev.<br />3) Teja ka sona is a reference from Dev Anand movie Jewel thief.<br />4) First half of the movie it feels like Ved is the Guide for Tara in Corsica and in the later half Ved goes on the internal journey of finding out who is his real self and Tara helps out by being the ultimate Guide to him.<br /> Which is the reference to the very popular movie of Dev Saheb Guide.<br />5) In the song Matargashti there are so many reference of Dev Anand movies like -<br /><br />a) Word like 'Prem pujari hoon' in the matargashti song is the reference to Dev Anand movie PremPujari(1970) .<br />b) Word-like 'Dil ka bhanwar' in the matargashti song is the refrance to Dev Anand Song in the movie 'Tere Ghar Ke Samne' 1963 where the song was 'dil ka bhanwar kare pukar'.<br />c) Word like 'Khwaab roz roz dekhe naye' in the matargashti song is the refrenace to Dev Anand's song in the movie 'Teen Deeviya 1965' where song was - 'Khwab Ho Tum Ya Koi Haqeeqat'.<br />d) Word like 'Chhup na dupatte mein tu oh chhaliya ' is the reference to the Dev Anand song from the movie PremPujari1970 and the song was Rangeela re where the word Chhaliya was used multiple times.<br /><br />And at the very end of the song, Ved imitates Dev Anand with hand movements.Jitin Saini jitinsaini@live.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510041980458050293.post-56910677943464506012020-11-25T07:26:38.999-08:002020-11-25T07:26:38.999-08:00Every year around this time of the year I share th...Every year around this time of the year I share the link to this story on my Instagram and WhatsApp story.

The way you have reviewed it, specially articulating the intricate details and also marking the similarities between Tamasha and Ali's prevuous hits, makes this read even more interesting. I had my heart melting g away reading this piece of review. Must say, Brava! ..and thank you for putting it so beautifully.

I too write blogs about Cinema but in my mother tongue Gujarati and was thinking to write one on Tamasha, when I found this blog of yours. Please keep it up. Appreciating a lot! And for the last scene I've concluded that 'Teja ka sona' means 'Dil ki awaaz'. She was the one who helped him to find his true self. Maybe I could be wrong, but this is my viewpoint on that...

I have watched the movie over and over again and always felt great whenever I watched the ending where Ved and Tara have finally found peace in each other. <br /><br />Sometimes all it takes is one person. Just one person to enter our life and complete us in such a way that nothing else, not even materialistic objects, can ever do. And this only happens when we meet a person who looks right through us and at what we are deep inside. <br /><br />Thank you for this amazing write up :)Puja Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01389512939758464865noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510041980458050293.post-11662203316145679602016-06-26T11:54:17.268-07:002016-06-26T11:54:17.268-07:00the daily routine scene of ranbir was a classis to...the daily routine scene of ranbir was a classis too.. so much to learn from imtiaz ali.. his movies are also special.. next with SRK ? cant waitAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13716728142820785866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510041980458050293.post-68196080457411711752016-06-26T11:47:22.857-07:002016-06-26T11:47:22.857-07:00the movie is just great.. and your article.. your ...the movie is just great.. and your article.. your first paragraph about a 1939 movie.. the book thing... and its story... the song was most awesome.. yes i also missed tara in second half..the sewater thing.. you are just amazing... so much detailing.. i just love reading your articles.. thank you for allAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13716728142820785866noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8510041980458050293.post-25579788493372348122016-06-05T03:48:16.828-07:002016-06-05T03:48:16.828-07:00Got done watching Tamasha 2 days ago, through out ...Got done watching Tamasha 2 days ago, through out the movie, You were on my mind. I was imaptient since months to read all the blogs You have posted on Tamasha. Read them all soon after the movie. As usual beautiful observations 'n interpretations. Honestly speaking, Tamasha has been haunting me since the moment I saw the repeated systematic morning routines of Ved. I've been thinking how to not fall into the rat race ever again since I am jobless 'n kind of blessed with an oppurtunity to start afresh. I hope we all find strength on our own or God sends the needy with their "Tara" to awaken their inner Child. Life is really short for mundane things. May we all find our Sparkle 'n sprinkle around some of the glitters. Ameen!<br />I can not get enough of Your writing so please keep up the Awesome Job P. Loved all the Blogs!
