Meta... Self Referencing in Bollywood
A compilation of tweets in which film buffs discussed the references (to previous events) filmmakers and directors slipped in. In continuation to something I wrote on my blog (http://diptakirti.blogspot.in/2013/02/more-meta.html)
- A post on self-referencing in Hindi movies. Now up on the blog. Read. Think. Add. diptakirti.blogspot.in/2013/02/more-m…
- @diptakirti Good one. Also remember one in Andaz Apna Apna about Sholay? Tere baap ne likhi thi? :))
- @SukanyaVerma Yes, of course. Brilliant. Also, "Papa kehte they" when Aamir was arrested!
- @diptakirti In Luck By chance, Ranbir Kapoor said to Rishi Kapoor, "Romi Uncle, you are like a father to me". Does that count reg last post?
- @dasCapital_ @diptakirti in fact @ghaywan can provide more insights. Neeraj this is in ref to Diptakirti's last blogpost.
