First Day First Show: Writings from the Bollywood: Writings from the Bollywood Trenches

An excellent read.The book is basically a compilation of articles Chopra wrote, beginning from the 90s.For those born in 80s the book is then a trip down memory lane.Apart from commentaries on the existing state of Bollywood,there are some film reviews.The language is very simple.This light read will surely take one to the days of the single screen movie theatres, audio cassettes, queuing up for tickets.As a reader in 2022, i was indeed take back in time.Needless to say,i finished the book in no time at all.

Very big "SORRY" to sayI know i am crossing my limitBUT...If anyone wants to tell about "First Day First Show" "Fever" of Hindi Cinema.He / She should talk / tell in "Hindi" too.Because in 70's & 80's major participants of this "First Day First Show" fever for Hindi movies were "Front Benchers of those day's single screen cinema halls"Those were the people who turned Hindi movies into :- Silver Jubilee + Golden Jubilee + Platinum Jubilee, by watching any single movie only in cinema halls countless time, by keeps on repeating .In those days purchasing cinema ticket in black was a glorious way of passion in Hindi cinema.
