Let's make a movie..

A grand party organized in memory of somebody who is not so important as is the cause.The who and who of the movie world were there.Walking along the black carpet with red clothes,india's most beautiful people were all present.
The music was deafening and the lighting was blinding and everybody drunk..one such drunk conversation..A young movie director in serious conversation with one of the king's of the industry.. "Sirrr, i would like to worrrk with you."
"Hmm that is a good idea ,let's make one ..it has been a long time i gave break to a director."
"Thank you sir, iam blessed . I would like to know the dates you are free, so that i can plan .you know sir now a days movie making needs optimal planning and execution, like the five year plans of india".
"I don't know about the five year plans,but iam free the whole of next month."
"Oh!! beautiful people bless me,i am indebted to you sir"

Next day the director wakes up lazily from his bed and recollects his activities yesterday.He remembers the conversation with king. He at once jumps up from his bed and takes the phone.The calls start.
"Hey, Rahul, you have been the dress designer for my previous flop movies ..but i have a lot of faith in you coz u have become ten times richer in the past 2 years.I making this movie with king ,it would be great .. what you say?"
"Ohh!! yes count me in ..working with king is like working with king, iam too happy to accept. As you know the dresses are not for the stars and as the shooting of the movie finishes the dresses would be taken back and i can't tolerate stars pressurizing me in such matters.It is a matter of work ethics you know."
"No problem yaar, i will take care of that.. u start your work"
"Ok byee"
"byee"

the next call.
"Hello is it his divine ,the music director of the masses?"
"yeah, who are you?"
"I am this young director and i signed up with king, i would like you to join in our team."
"This is a great opportunity.Only yesterday i created some wonderful tunes but very similar in tone and raga to Zimbabwean tribal music.I guess with this i would become the most original music director.Please count me in and is it the usual two rock and roll, two romantic , one sad and one sentimental song sequence."
"no!! cut the sad and sentimental and put rock and roll and romantic in their place.This is going to be a different film.Afterall, it is for king and you know people are crazy about king in such roles."
"Ok i got it. I would start my work and my pay as u know is half of what king asks."
"yes, off course , everything is usual as iam producing the movie tooo.Sir in industry no body talks about pay on phones."
"Iam sorry.I was just too excited i guess, thank you sir for giving this wonderful opportunity"
"byee..thank you too"
"welcome sir"

the next call.
"Rohit, travel agent..is it"
" ha yes"
"Iam this young director .. we are planning to make a movie ,50% of it will be in singapore and the rest in Kirghistan"
"Why kirghistan sir?"
"No special reason.I guess that area has not been covered by bollywood and we will do the best of it.See that we tie up the country's tourism department and there is king who will promote their country in the world for them."
"Sir.I guess there are not many beautiful locations out there."
"No problem we will shoot some in india and we will say it is in kirghistan.We want good publicity and making movie in indian outdoor locations is considered bad for the movies"
"yes sir ,the people come and pose in the back ground while shooting is going in the foreground."
"Not only that we have to cross the 15crore barrier in movie making right."
"ha yes sir ,otherwise everybody will start saying ours is a cheap movie and that is bad publicity"
"yes exactly. I want it for the next month.First half of the next month in singapore and the next half in kirghistan."
"Consider it done sir!! who is the heroine by the way? you know sir iam fond of beautiful women."
"I have to decide that and i will let you know in few hours."
"theek hey sir !! mein dekhloonga."

the next call is to the public relations agent(PR agent)
"Sir iam this young director and i need good publicity for my movie"
"Oh!! no problem sir. We will create many contests and give some exclusive images to music channels which they will be exlusively beaming exclusively for our audience. We would create new hair style for the hero and make people follow it and the dresses of heroines are a little problem sir but we would try."
"that is good to hear.You are already on the job.We have king in the lead role"
"yes sir, we will create an sms contest and dinner with heroine contest. I hope their is some controversy generated between king and the heroine.It would be great for the movie publicity."
"We will see it too it."
"The job is done sir,Thank you"
"thank you ..byee"

The heroine too is signed up on phone.The rest of supporting characters are taken as most of them are free.Everybody plans to meet on the next month at the airport.They all land up in singapore.The first two days were spent in sight-seeing as is king's wish.

They decide a location to shoot in some lane in singapore.

Camera on, everybody dressed up .. then king asks "what role am i playing?"

The yound director forgot about the story and dialogues completely.He was so busy with travel agents,music directors and designer he gave the onus of story on assistant director. He too forgot about it.They both go to some secluded place leaving the rest of the crew and discuss.
"On what do we make a movie on?"
"I guess it is difficult to create a new story now sir, time is so less and we even forgot to hire a dialogue writer."
"Hmmm!! let's make a remake then.No need of new dialogues we will use the old ones and king will take care of the rest.The story is also safe because people already accepted it."
"Sir,but new survey's show that people are tired of remakes."
"Is it?? then.. then.. let's make a remake of a remake"
"that is a good idea sir.You are very intelligent and iam blessed to work under you."
"what remake shall we remake?"
"sir I guess it should be rocky sir. Rocky ,the english version has been remade five times and the sixth is coming out. We will compete with the sixth version and make it a bollywood vs hollywood."
"This will be very good for publicity."
"Let's watch the previous five then sir."
"I think if we see it once ,the rest all are same."
"Exactly sir,that is why people are going to love it."
"hmm..let's call some pakistani hero then..this we can publicise as arts have no boundaries."
"too good sir,I already see our movie becoming a big hit in both the countries."
"Let's call off today's shooting and let everybody watch rocky and ha we will call a press conference to anounce the movie and we will ask king to talk about his new avtaar as rocky ,in which he is going to be topless most of the time. I think girls would love it."
"Our movie is a super duper hit sir."
"Let's make a movie then.."
