AVM..

The title of "Sir" is given to subjects of the Queen, Indians are not subject of the Queen. Only citizens & residents of Commonwealth Realm countries are. India is a Commonwealth country not a Commonwealth Realm country since 1952 or so, prior to that Indians were eligible.

Next time before you mouth off, please get some facts Sir!!!!

Thanks. You have shown the spirit of admitting mistake, which is a rare criterion of the human species.

congrats Benagal,you deserve it.
Eventhough you born in Hyderbad where only crap movies are made you made some outstanding movies fortunately in Hindi thru that your movie can easly communicate with all the majority of Indians.My fav.is "Sooraj ka sathva goda and Ankur"

No hard felings. If a deserving person gets the award every one will applaud him irrespective of whether he is a Bengali, Tamilian, malayali, Marathi, Panajbi or whatever he is. Mr. Benegal deserves it and wish him many more such accolades.

Junoon was the best
by Suresh on Aug 08, 2007 03:12 PM

If you ask me Junoon, was the best movie directed by Shyam Benegal. I liked Mandi for the slapstick humour.

Congratulation Mr. Benegal
by subhroprakash ghosh on Aug 08, 2007 03:10 PM

I'm really happy to know that Benegalji has been honoured with prestigious Dada Saheb Phalke award for 2005. He is one of my favourite film director. I have seen several times his last film on the most famous freedom fighter Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, where he had tried his best to highlight his (Bose's) actions, ideologies, speeches, travels, patriotism, sacrifices being a soldier, etc for motherland. He had struggled to revive once again the image of 'Netaji' in our eyes, which had got lost for many decades due to several political reasons.

Once again I congratulate Mr. Shyam Benegal.
