Bachchanalia Quiz- My Answers!


The Quiz friends is available on my other blog ! http://abhayakavi.blogspot.com
Respected Brother,
Sadar Charan Sparsh,

I think you have robbed me of a chance to win Bachchanalia. It is all right. I still sbmit my answers to you though the quiz has been over, had you mentioned of the quiz earlier, I probably stood very good chance, I think I am only unsure of Shweta's birth time. Rest all ar most likely the correct answers. Have a look

Q1. Saat Hindustani heroine - Shahnaz Agha
Q2. Deaf and dumb role - Reshma aur Shera
Q3. First mvie with jaya Bhaduri - Bansi Birju (After second thoughts I feel my first answer Ek Nazar was probably right, kya farak padata hai, I am not winning the book! anyway!!)
Q4. Producer of Bomay to Goa - Mehmood
Q5. Decision to marry Jaya - Zanjeer
Q6. Earlier name of Abhimaan - Raag Ragini
Q7. Initail choice for mother's role in Deewar - Vyjayantimala
Q8. Shweta born – Sholay
Q9. First hit movie with Rekha - Khoon Pasina
Q10. Original choice as adaptation of Devdas - Muqaddar Ka Sikandar (A guess!)
Q11. First bilingual - Barsaat ki ek Raat
Q12. Last year with Prakash mehra et al. - 1984
Q13. More than three sogs - Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham
Q14. Ban on smoking - Family
Q15, Diverticlitis - Nishabd

Now brother, if I am right on all the answers, do I get a fifty percent discount vouchers to buy Bachchanalia ( Smiling and joking!, why will I need to have a copy of it and do I really deserve it!). Jokes apart, I would like to know my score. I think the answers along with te winner would be published by the Mint Lounge in a day or two. I am not sad for not winning the book but for the fact tha I could not participate in the Quiz- where I probably stood a good chance.

I read the interviews and also the five pages of Mint write up, The mint thing was very well done. he interview presented by you and the original interview had one question on slumdog missing here! It is OK.

Have a great day and if you do consider that I do deserve a copy of Bachchanalia anyway, I would not mind paying half the cost! Should I send a cheque to you ! ( for Rs. 1750 smiling - dabi dabi muskaan ke saath!)

The whole of the Mint thing was pretty good and worth for being made available in Hindi as well, ask them if they have thought of it being translated, if they looking forward to a translator, I might like to give it a shot! and that is not meant as a joke.
