ES IST UNMÖGLICH. Der indische Polizeikommissar Desilva (Boman Iran) setzt alles daran ein internationales Drogenkartell mit Hauptsitz in Kuala Lumpur zu zerschlagen. Nachdem er den skrupellosen Gang-Chef Don (Shah Rukh Khan) gefasst hat, ersetzt er ihn durch einen Doppelgänger. Dazu rekrutiert Desilva den unbescholtenen Straßenkünstler Vijay (ebenfalls Shah Rukh Khan), der Don zum verwechseln ähnlich sieht. Er soll das Verbrechersyndikat für die Polizei ausspionieren. Doch bei einem Anschlag stirbt Desilva und mit ihm die Wahrheit über Vijays Identität. So findet sich Vijay bald zwischen allen Fronten wieder. Denn die Mitglieder der Drogenmafia werden misstrauisch und die indische Polizei will Don nach wie vor hinter Gitter bringen. Gejagt von beiden Seiten rennt und kämpft Don/Vijay um sein Leben. _______________________________________ Pressenotiz DON ist Adrenalinkino vom feinsten. Regisseur Farhan Akhtar (DIL CHAHTA HAI, LAKSHYA – MUT ZUR ENTSCHEIDUNG) inszeniert mit DON ein furioses Action-Remake des gleichnamigen 70er Jahre Kult-Klassikers mit Superstar Shah Rukh Khan in einer Doppelrolle. Der dritte Film des erfolgreichen Nachwuchsregisseurs, der vor allem durch aufwendige Stunts und kompromisslose Hochglanzoptik besticht, nahm 2006 sofort den Platz an der Spitze der indischen Kinocharts ein. Spektakuläre Schauplätze in Frankreich, Malaysia und Indien, die durchweg namhafte Besetzung und einer der fiesesten Bösewichter der Filmgeschichte machen DON zum cutting-edge Bollywood-Blockbuster. DON 3 ____________________________ Regisseur Farhan Akhtar Farhan Akhtar ist der Sohn des bekannten Drehbuchautors und Songwriters Javed Akhtar, der unter anderem für das Originaldrehbuch von DON verantwortlich zeichnet, und der ebenso erfolgreichen Drehbuchautorin und Schauspielerin Honey Irani, die für Bollywood-Erfolge wie KOI...MIL GAYA - STERNENKIND und KRRISH die Drehbücher verfasste. Seine eigene Karriere begann er als Regieassistent von Pankaj Parashar. Anschließend wechselte er zu einer Fernsehproduktion, wo er als Aufnahmeleiter und Regieassistent arbeitete, Musikvideos und Image-Filme drehte, aber auch Drehbücher für Werbung und Sitcoms verfasste. In dieser Zeit begann auch die Planung für sein erstes eigenes Projekt, den mehrfach ausgezeichneten Film DIL CHAHTA HAI. Hier zeigte sich auch Farhan Akhtars besonderes Talent das klassische indische Kino mit modernen Inhalten und Bildern aufzufrischen. Farah Akhtar zählt heute zu den wichtigsten Nachwuchsregisseuren Indiens. __________________________Kommentar des Regisseurs „Es passiert nicht oft, dass man die Gelegenheit bekommt einen Film, den man selbst seit langem bewundert, wiederauferstehen zu lassen. Mit dem Remake von DON kann ich mich als einer der wenigen Glücklichen schätzen, die diese Chance bekommen haben. DON war für mich einer der ersten bewussten Begegnungen mit dem indischen Film. Er kam 1978 in die Kinos, als ich vier Jahre alt war. Auch wenn ich mich nicht mehr genau daran erinnern kann, wie ich auf den Film reagiert habe, werde ich den Anblick von Amitabh Bachchan als DON nie vergessen. Er jagte mir ziemlich Angst ein und gleichzeitig verfolgte ich ihn wie gebannt auf der Leinwand. Gab es irgendjemanden der cooler war als er? Die Antwort ist eindeutig NEIN. Man muss gar nicht erst lang suchen, denn es gibt niemanden, der ihm ebenbürtig ist. Mit dieser Begeisterung für die Figur und den Film wollte ich DON in unsere Zeit übertragen. Nach gut 116 Drehtagen und jeder Menge Arbeit ist der Film jetzt fertig. Die Stimmung im Team war einfach überwältigend. Alle Beteiligten haben weit mehr zur Entstehung des Films beigetragen, als ich von ihnen hätte verlangen können. Wahrscheinlich spürten wir alle, dass hier etwas ganz Besonderes passierte. Wenn ich auf all die Tage zurückblicke, die ich bis jetzt in die Umsetzung des Films investiert habe, muss ich sagen, es hätte nicht besser laufen können.“ DON 4 _________________________________________ Darsteller Shah Rukh Khan als Don/Vijay Shah Rukh Khan ist der absolute Superstar des gegenwärtigen indischen Kinos. Im Laufe seiner Filmkarriere wurde Shah Rukh Khan mit Auszeichnungen überhäuft und ein Ende seines Ruhmes ist nicht abzusehen. Er gewann mehrere Male den Filmfare Best Actor Award (1993, 1995, 1997, 1998) und hat als einziger indischer Schauspieler den Preis für den besten Helden und ebenso den Preis für den besten Bösewicht bekommen (1994 Filmfare Best Villian Award). 1965 in Delhi geboren, begann Shah Rukh Khans Schauspielerkarriere auf den anspruchsvollen Theaterbühnen seiner Geburtsstadt. Durch seinen Umzug nach Mumbai (Bombay) wechselte er das Fach vom Theater- zum Fernseh- und Filmschauspieler und hatte seinen ersten Durchbruch in der TV – Serie FAUJI. Dieser Erfolg brachte ein Rollenangebot nach dem anderen mit sich und seine erste Hauptrolle in einem abendfüllendem Spielfilm (DEEWANA) wurde umgehend mit dem Filmfare Best Debut Award belohnt. Auch in seiner zweiten Hauptrolle in RAJU BAN GAYA GENTLEMAN brillierte er mit der eindrucksvollen Darstellung eines jungen und armen Ingenieurs, der vom Land in die große Stadt zieht, auf der Suche nach einem besseren Leben. Angespornt durch seinen ihn bestätigenden Erfolg führten seine schauspielerischen Leistungen in den folgenden Filmen zu einem beispiellosen Wandel der Rolle des männlichen Bösen im indischen Film. Shah Rukh Khan schuf einen neuen Typus des Anti-Helden, den man vorher so im indischen Kino noch nie gesehen hatte. Er ist derzeit der wichtigste Protagonist des Bollywood-Kinos. Weltweit und gerade in Deutschland, ist SRK (wie sein Name respektvoll gekürzt wird) zum Gesicht und Botschafter des indischen Kinos geworden.

    BOLLYWOOD, DE VIAJE POR ESPAÑA Bollywood: Traveling around Spain a ALEJANDRA VAL CUBERO Universidad Carlos III de Madrid RESUMEN La película de Bollywood Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (ZNMD) traducida al español como Solo se vive una vez, fue un éxito de taquilla en el verano de 2011 en la India. Dirigida por la joven realizadora Zoya Akhtar y financiada por Turespaña, se ha construido como un perfecto pro- yecto de marketing a nivel transnacional, donde España se convierte en el escenario elegido por tres jóvenes que deciden celebrar la despedida de soltero de uno de ellos visitando ciudades y pueblos de nuestra geografía. La película plantea interesantes temas sobre la ascendente clase media alta india que trata de armonizar un nuevo estilo de vida consumista con las tradiciones más ligadas a la generación de sus padres, y es un claro ejemplo de una industria cultural cada vez más globalizada y con más peso económico dentro y fuera de la India. Palabras clave: Bollywood, cine, España, turismo, clase media-alta en India. ABSTRACT The Bollywood film Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (hereinafter ‘ZNMD’), translated into Spanish as Solo se vive una vez, was a box office success in the summer of 2011 in India. Directed by the young filmmaker Zoya Akhtar and funded by Turespaña, ZNMD was conceived as a perfect marketing product at transnational level, in which Spain becomes the venue chosen by three young people who decide to celebrate the bachelor party of one of them, by visiting some touris- tic towns and villages of the country. The film raises interesting topics on the ascending upper middle class in India which seeks to harmonize a new consumerist way of life with a more tra- ditional lifestyle linked to their parent’s generation, and it is a clear example of an increasingly globalized cultural industry with more economic weight inside and outside India.
