About Me

Boney Kapoor started his career working under legends like Shakti Samanta. The most famous film produced by him remains the Shekhar Kapur directed sci-fi blockbuster Mr India starring Anil Kapoor and Sridevi. The film was the second biggest hit of 1987, and remains a cult classic in India. The film was known for several of its lines and songs, including Sridevi's Miss Hawa Hawaii performance, and Amrish Puri's quote "Mogambo khush hua" (Mogambo is pleased), which is one of the most famous quotes of Bollywood and has become synonymous with Puri.[1] The Mogambo character is also considered to be one of the best villains in Bollywood history.[1] Laxmikant-Pyarelal's music performed well too, especially the song Hawa Hawaii which is very popular till today. The film has often been featured in different lists of top Bollywood films. Indiatimes Movies ranks the movie amongst the Top 25 Must See Bollywood Films.[2] This was the last film that the writing duo Salim-Javed wrote together. They had split up earlier in 1982, but came back for one last film. The film was also remade in Tamil as En Rathathin Rathame, starring K. Bhagyaraj.[3] in Kannada as Jai Karnataka, starring Ambareesh. On the centenary of Indian Cinema, Mr. India has been declared one of the 100 Greatest Indian Films of All Time.[4] Described by Rediff as "one of the most iconic films of its time",[5] it became one of the highest grossing hits of the year[6] and also found a place in Hindustan Times list of 'Top 10 Patriotic Films of Hindi Cinema'.
