GUNDA(1998)

*upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/2/2e/Gunda.jpg/220px-Gunda.jpg

A masterpiece by kanti shah.Ever since i have watched this movie i cant control myself.The movie is so inspiring and innovative that all other films will fail infront of it.

It is a true fact that nobody will understand the movie in one go.(nolans inception is for kids) This is simply because the movie is very tough to understand not many especially indian audiences are mature enough to decipher the meaning of various dialogues in this movie.

Kanti shah should be given nobel prize as no one could do what he did.

Guys lets get to work and lets clear our doubts.any questions related to the movie are welcomed here.

we will try to answer your questions as clearly as possible.If we work together someday we will definitely complete our research on this movie.

^^

i comment after watching

EDIT: Read the reviews, dammit I really though you were sarcastic.

Dont insult Dr kanti shah.
Read the imdb reviews nobody gave it below 10.A path breaking record in movie making.
if you havent seen this movie then you have missed a great classic.

I would call upon Mr. a_medico the prof of this subject to help our fellow members to clear their doubts.

dude its such an old movie...its a cult movie to say the least..saw it a couple of years ago with my friends & wow...its one of the best movies i have ever seen...if u liked gunda...then i will suggest you go watch loha as well...it has dharmendra & a cameo by mithun & another cameo by a famous actress...

Another thing in kanti shah movies are women are not safe..they are bound to get violated someway...

Certain things which violates the rules should be posted with a spoiler tag.

Nothing to laugh here It is a special type of vitamin which even bulla consumes.
There is a nice hidden message here.
Dr kanti shah atlast found out the secret why everytime china beats india in population.His extensive research has led him to the discovery of a certain type of drug whose ingredients only chinese people knows.using this drug delivery can be made within a week.(remember what haseena says to bulla after he extracts her paseena.and rest you know...)

Kanti shah ki jai.

^^

seen loha what a gem guys what a gem.i am too subtle to understand various hidden meaning in that movie.i would like some one to assist me to understand some sections from that film.

Some of the movie of Mithun has hilarious names
such as this one Click Here

have you watched Jallad No. 1???

Was watching gunda again.This time i discovered something new.

In the scene where bulla and his men meets prabhuji aka mithun for the first time ch*tia says to bulla "yeh aapka sada hua tiger jaisa nahi hai" pointing to the pet cheetah bullah was holding. :-D

Now after seeing this scene i got confused and spend around 2-3 hours thinking why ch*tia is calling a cheetah tiger when according to my subtle knowledge on animals both are different. :-?

What was the hidden message behind this?What kanti shah wants to tell us? what?

Then it stuck me.Look who uttered those words?No one other than ch*tia himself.ch*tia:! Thats it! Kanti shah really wanted to show people the IQ of ch*tia.By saying this ch*tia proves that he really is a ch*tia! :shock:

Thats why bulla's family named him ch*tia! :-D

There are many other reasons too one of them kanti shah wanted to show people that he does not disrespect homosexuals.Bullas brother is not called ch*tia because he is gay but because he is an idiot.Very intelligently kanti shah escaped from the scissors of the censor board.Kudos!

Damn this movie deserves an oscar! Kanti shah ke prati respect aur bad gaya hai.

This guy is a genius.Aamir khan should take some lessons from him.

^ can you give time within the movie?

you cannot watch the movie too carefully
ok so mithun's intro around 15:30
kala shetty grabs a mantri in front of his armed guard
the police reach for the guns in their holsters
kala shetty stabs the mantri in front of everyone, and starts to run
the police, with their hands just about to take out their guns, push them back into the holsters and run after kala shetty

kalla shetty runs into the airport
the police run after kala shetty
there is just a helicopter now
kala shetty is about to get into the helicopter
mithun's arm appears out of nowhere, and pushes kala shetty away from the helicopter
at this point, there is a helicopter and a plane behind mithun

so conclusion is, while kala shetty was running towards the helicopter, mithun jumped out of his plane, and pushed kala shetty away, while his plane landed itself behind mithun (or now that I think of it, the monkey was probably the pilot)

because mithun is a coolie, and he has a plane, that is why everyone has planes

^^Hmmm good observation anorion i missed the intro details of prabhuji.Have to watch again. :duh2:

But i can answer some of your confusions.

kala shetty grabs a mantri in front of his armed guard
the police reach for the guns in their holsters
kala shetty stabs the mantri in front of everyone, and starts to run the police, with their hands just about to take out their guns, push them back into the holsters and run after kala shetty

You see this situation is a bit tricky to understand.Lot of philosophical ideas at play here.After doing some research with the help of google i found the true meaning.Kanti shah's one aim in this epic was to show different type of gundas which exists in our society.
Here kala shetty represents the A category gundas which means he is very cunning and is an expert in killing people with the help of deception.You see he selected his weapon very cleverly.In late 20th century who would have thought of murdering someone in broad daylight that too before the presence of an entire police force.No one right! Only a mad person would do this.Isnt it?

Now kala shetty takes the advantage of this mentality of the people.When he draws the knife before the entire police force.Everyone gets stunned or surprised by the selection of his weapon.This creates a confusion in the mind of our poor policewalahs.They couldnt decide if he is an escaped inmate from an asylum or a criminal.Before they could decide anything kala shetty does his job and runs!Very clever indeed! Now the police still in confusion decides to follow him instead of shooting him because they wanted to make sure that he is not a demented fool.Otherwise they feared that they might get suspended for killing a mentally ill person.

kalla shetty runs into the airport
the police run after kala shetty

Tigmanshu dhulia made paan singh tomar only after completing his research on gunda i think.You see kanti sha put this sequence just to show the intelligent public that kala shetty was a follower and a fan of paan sigh tomar.Thats why he made the police to chase him from rashtrapati bhavan to the airport.He wanted to show police that agar kanoon ke haath lambey hai to jurm ka pair bhi lamba hai .

Oh! Didnt know theres thread on Gunda here.

Gunda is the only movie on imdb which I have rated 10/10. Best of the other movies I have watched aint beyond 8 at the max.

And if you guys still think Kanti Shah would be some 50 year old weird director, think again.

*im.rediff.com/movies/2012/jul/18slid1.jpg

This is a tribute to a great man and the great movie

BTW ... here is the full movie..
Gunda - YouTube

@OP/Mods.. add this to the first post

Mortals should explore and experience the movie themselves. No directions for the destination.

Its the Indian inception..story within a story within a story

^^It seems you have not understood the movie at all otherwise how could you say this?

Its the Indian inception..story within a story within a story

Dude let me tell you inception is just a small fragment from a giant universe called gunda.Have you not realized yet that these hollywood guys cannot make anything original these days.Nolan is the biggest hidden follower of gunda and has done a lot of research on gunda.Infact he is a thief.
Take for eg:-The prestige.The teleport idea was a direct rip off from this movie.Haven't you noticed how the characters in this movie have the ability to teleport from one place to another in no time!
Now you already have given one eg called Inception.Even the climax of Inception & The dark knight rises has been copied from this movie.Notice how nolan makes the audience fool by letting them decide what happens in the end.Kanti shah touch indeed.

Now lets come to our desi director eg:-Abbas Mustan.Film:Ajnabee.Do you remember the intro dialogues of gunda?The infamous wife swapping dialogue? Thats it.See the power of gunda universe.A complete film called "Ajnabee" was born from a single dialogue in gunda. and our stupid gunda illiterate critics thought its a rip off from Consulting Adults.

This can go on...

Dude the rating is falling there rapidly please do something to put it back on 10/10.Other movies? what other movies?There is only one movie called Gunda! Rest all released after it are just "inspired" ones.As for kanti sir what should i say.There are no adjectives in any language that could define his personality.

This thread is pure win

nice thread.good video posted by a_medico.Reminds me of my college days when we used to imitate the characters especially those dialogues.awesome movie. :lol:

Tarantino's kill bill is a direct inspiraton from the ninjas of gunda!

*youtube.com/watch?v=L2bFsQWaDTg

oh god !! I remember watching this movie about 4 years back !!This movie was so awesome !! Took us about ~3 hours to watch this 2h10m movie.

( you can understand our situation)

My favourite dialogue :

Mera naam hai Ibu Hatela,
Maa meri chudail ke beti,
Baap mera shaitan ka chela,
(pointing downwards) Khayega kela?

I think it was Black Rhino (kala genda) in one of the initial scenes runs through desert, construction site and port/airport with a knife stabbed in stomach shouting bulla bulla, he could have just run to hospital
Sure there is some logic in this also

Loha is another gem. Can't find the damn movie on youtube.

Loha too is a classic. The whole movie was up on youtube. I guess its taken down

Jaani Dushman: Ek Anokhi Kahani
Almost equivalent to gunda except for the rhyming.

J

Awesome movie..!!

^^Naah, Jaani Dushman is just a cheap imitation of hollywood.

^^ yes but what about those award wining (over)actings, dialogues,story....etc. If you have seen gunda multiple times & want something different for a change then at least you can watch this one.

guys seeders are not great for this movie .any thing else you got.
really want to see it.thanks

its on youtube

“Chatri hotee hain kholne ke liye, chadar hotee hain orne ke liye aur ladki hotee hain cherne ke liye”

Can somebody please decode this dialogue for me. :-?

I am sure they don't mean it literally.

Guys is lambu aata the reason behind increasing crime rate against the women? I am worried because if the govt finds this out then they may cut this scene from that movie.

Kindly post what do you think? If this is true then this movie should be viewed only by those who are mature enough to find out the deeper meaning of these dialogues.

arre don't worry, at least this movie is not pretentious. All the movies, and the biggest Indian movies treat women like trash. Everyone is constantly trying to rape Aishwarya Rai in Robot. They might put on a sheen of glitz and glamour, but most of Indian cinema appeals to the same base emotions as Gunda.

Wow [MENTION=56202]Anorion[/MENTION] thats a good explanation. I think you are right. How stupid of me.

How could this fact slipped out of my mind.

I also think modi's man ki baat was inspired from this movie. Considering how our hero could read peoples mind through telepathy.

My fav dialogue from Gunda, which must have several hidden meanings

"Baap pe Poot, Pita pe ghoda - Kuch nahi to thoda thoda."

haha at telepathy
what bugs me is how the monkey got a driving license

Since you have mentioned it can you please explain it. I am not that intelligent but what I can understand is son inherits some trait from his father which is similar for a horse too. If the father horse can run faster then the son horse must run atleast fast. I mean he may not inherit the complete good qualities but some of them.

Some complex biology is at play here any doctors or researchers in this forum?

Now I am amazed that you asking such kind of question.

Have you forgotten this film Aankhen (1993) - IMDb

Its the same monkey who is not only a better actor but a licensed driver too. KS would never cast any unskilled amateur in his film be it human or an animal. Perfection is what he seeks.

have you watched Jallad No. 1???

Thanks for recommending this.
Well after watching the whole movie I can only say one thing Taj mahal can only be created once. The second time it is called an imitation!
KS tried hard to bring the gunda magic but unfortunately its not even near it.

oh now that you point it out, I think the planet of the apes idea was taken from the movie Aankhen

^^Hmm no comments on that yet but do you know in the movie "welcome" director aneez bazmee pays a special tribute to gunda. In this scene Welcome Full Movie - Hindi - 2007 HD - YouTube
Look at the painting by anil kapoor. Do you find any similarity? Yes its about that dialogue which we were discussing in the above post.

I have another question on bulla. Its more about his character. I am confused. Guys was he a gay too? Was he having an affair with his brother chutia too?

1. Chutia in his intro says "mera naam hai chutia acche acchon ki khadi karta hoon main khatia...bulli kaha hai teri ungli??"

2. At the start of the film when kafan chor neta mentions bulla in front of lambu ata he says "Bulla ka naam lekar khada kar diya hai tune mera"... then realizing his mistake that he has revealed so much he continues "gusse se ek ek baal khada kar diya hai"

Please shed some light into this.

oh woow I remember that scene, and the painting also, but never made the connection

The Hero: Love Story of a Spy (2003) - IMD

Guys ghayal once again has very slight gunda touch to it. This movie can be damn hilarious at time therefore its a movie which you can watch alone when you are in mood of seeing a movie like gunda.
One dialogue worth mentioning
Minister : Mere gote jaam mat karo.

Btw this movie has a hidden secret which I dont think many viewers have caught.

Anyways those who have seen the movie I have a question for you.

Q. Who is the main villain in this movie?

If you answer correctly I will rep you.

guys i have missed some really good movies which i thought were too boring...
currently completing LOTR 3..after that i will be qualified to watch gunda...i have seen pretentious movie review of this movie and was inspired to watch at that time only..but was not able to watch..now i will correct my mistake and watch the masterpiece.

1:57:22
Today I have noticed that bulla had a silenced AK-47 & his goons had smgs. Now the firing sound of all the weapons were same. Also notice that when bulla ran out of nullets his goons also ran out of bullets! Now I am confused how is thing possible? Can anyone please explain.

^IMO, the sound was only from the SMGs as the AK-47 had been silenced. You hear only the SMGs running out of bullets, not the AK-47.
