When we think of Amol Palekar, we fondly remember heart-warming romantic comedies like Chhoti Si Baat, Chitchor and Gol Maal.Hemchhaya De looks at the body of work that made him our favourite everyman.
Principle of the thing
“Amol uncle is soft-spoken, but if he wants something done in a particular way, he’ll make sure it’s done without being too forceful,” says Chaiti Ghoshal, acclaimed Bengali TV, theatre and film actor, who worked with Palekar for a TV series called Krishnakali (2006), commissioned by Doordarshan. But Ghoshal’s association with him goes back to the mid-80s when he played the lead in her father Shyamal Ghoshal’s Bengali film, Britto about jute mill workers. “I was just a child when I first met him and he was a big star. He was making blockbusters with filmmakers like Basu Chatterjee and Hrishikesh Mukherjee,” recalls Ghoshal. Although she was just a child at that time, Ghoshal remembers that Palekar worked like any other member of the film unit.
