This Bollywood blockbuster stars Shah Rukh Khan as a ‘70s background actor reincarnated as a modern-day superstar, and Deepika Padukone as both a ‘70s screen goddess and a lookalike modern-day aspiring actress. Tajpal Rathore called it a “cinematic feast delivered straight from the heart of the film industry”. In Hindi with English subtitles.
Presented in 35mm by Films at the Whitney and the Yale Film Archive with support from Paul L. Joskow ’70 M.Phil., ’72 Ph.D.
