Guru Dutt's son is supposedly involved in a long term project to clean up and reissue his father's work, and it could not come soon enough! I have such a hard time even reading the subtitles! By the way, Shabana Azmi's mother played the madam in the Rekha/Naseeruddin Shah version of Umrao Jaan. I remember because the article that I was reading said that Shabana is going to play the same role in the upcoming remake. I was really looking forward to that one until Arshad Warsi had to back out of the Naseer role of Umrao Jaan's brothel buddy, Gohar Mirza...sigh, I know the commercial lure of Munnabhai 2 was too great, but he would have been perfect for the funny, streetwise, charming role.

I'm trying to get an accurate transcription of it in the original, which I'll post once I do. What a talented family, the Azmis, eh? I just realized the other day when watching it that Shabana's mother played the role of the madam in Salaam Bombay. Thanks!
