Prominent German leftist to launch new party that could eat into far-right's support_我的网站

A |     Filmmaker Anil Sharma's association with Dharmendra and the Deol family goes back a long way. He had directed the late actor in Hukumat (1987), which went on to be one of the biggest blockbusters of the filmmaker's career. Together, they delivered more hits such as Elaan-E-Jung (1989), Farishtay (1991) and Apne (2007). Filmfare caught up with Sharma, who opened his heart about this bond with Dharmendra.Excerpts:     What kind of an impact did Dharamji have on your life and career?     My entire career exists because of him. The first star I ever saw on the big screen was Dharmendra. When I became an assistant director, I worked with him on The Burning Train (1980). And the biggest blockbuster of my life, my first blockbuster Hukumat was also with him. We also did Elaan-E-Jung, Farishtay (1991) and Tahalka (1992), and all four were hits.          I worked with his son Sunny Deol on Gadar: Ek Prem Katha (2001). I produced Policewala Gunda (1995) and directed Ab Tumhare Hawale Watan Saathiyo (2004) with Bobby Deol. My film Apne had all the three Deols in it. Then there were The Hero: Love Story of a Spy (2003) and Singh Saab The Great (2013). My whole life has been spent working with the Deols and most with Dharamji. I consider myself fortunate to have worked with this family and Dharmendra. He was a legend, an era by himself . People love him so much because he too loved them in equal measure.     Go on...     Dharmendra was a young man from Sahnewal... He would stand before the Frontier Mail train and say, 'Frontier, please take me to Bombay.' And truly, Dharmendra became the film industry. He would have 6–7 releases in a single year, and all of them were hits… Today, if an actor gives even three hits in a year, he’ll run around with a sword, ready to conquer the entire country.     Dharmendra ji delivered massive blockbusters that no hero today has ever seen on that scale. It was not just action films that worked. He did films like Anupama, Chupke Chupke, Naya Zamana, Mera Gaon Mera Desh, Pratigya, Yaadon Ki Baarat, Hukumat. He had such a range! All these were hit films. And he was so handsome… It felt like God crafted him with his own hands, and then broke the mould forever. He was what you truly call, 'a Greek God'. Today we loosely call many heroes 'Greek God' but the real Greek God was Dharmendra.          It is said that he never increased his fee even after delivering blockbusters...He had multiple hits releasing at the same time. When he watched Hukumat, he liked it a lot. His payment terms used to be that some money was given during production and the rest upon release. So, he told me, 'Anil, you've made such a wonderful film, I'm waving off my entire balance fee.' He would waive off his remaining payment if you made a good film. He had no attachment to money; his attachment was only to good cinema.     How was your last meeting with him?     It was a couple of months ago. He asked me about the films I was working on. He then said that he wants to do such a film that the world will watch in awe and asked me to find a role for him. He said, "Camera meri mehbooba hai, aur mujhe miss kar rahi hai..." (Camera is my beloved, and she is missing me) I'm missing her too and I have to go back to her. He actually had a film ready to release and in the last couple of years, he had done films, and he had such passion even at the age of 89. He would tell me, "Just watch, I’ll do such good work that the world will watch… you’ll see what I’ll do. You’ll see." It felt like he was the same little boy from Sahnewal.                                                                 View this post on Instagram          A post shared by Anil Sharma (@anilsharma_dir)               How was Dharmendra as a person when the cameras stopped rolling?      Dharamji never realised how big his stardom and influence was. We would tell him that you are such a big star and he would say, "I am nothing...I am just a farmer, a man of the soil." In fact, the entire Deol family is like that. They genuinely believe they are still new and have a lot more to achieve. Dharam ji once said that he worked only for the people and their love. He came to be a part of the film industry, and he didn’t just become a part of it, he became the film industry itself.     Tell us about Sher, Dharmendra's shelved James Bond style spy thriller...     Sher goes back to 1988. I wanted to make a James Bond–style film. Recently the poster suddenly resurfaced, and everyone was shocked seeing Dharmendra with such a fantastic, powerful physique. I was a big fan of Bond films, because what does a Bond film need? Personality, handsomeness, wit, romance in the eyes, action prowess, intelligence, and Dharam ji had every single one of those qualities. But somehow, the film couldn’t get made. Hukumat hadn’t released yet at that time and I had signed Sher during Hukumat itself. The producer ran into some issues. If the film had been made, it would have been something remarkable in Dharamji’s career. I still have the script with me. Even now, people tell me to make it with Sunny Deol. I haven’t thought about it yet, but yes, I’ll see, and maybe I will think about it again.     What do you want people to remember most about Dharmendra and his legacy?     He was a genuinely good human being who knew how to love. I used to ask him what defines a good actor and he always said that a good actor is first a good person. If today’s actors understand just this one thing, they’ll automatically become better actors. If you’re a good person, you can play a bad man, you can play a worthless man, you can play an average man. His goodness, and the way he showered love on people, these two qualities were truly special about him. And that is exactly how he will always be remembered. He is a legend and legends never die, they remain immortal.     Also Read: Exclusive: When Esha Deol Called Dharmendra and Hema Malini Excellent Babysitters。    BERLIN -- A prominent German leftist politician has launched plans to form a new party that some observers think could take votes away from the far-right Alternative for Germany.Sahra Wagenknecht on Monday presented her “Sahra Wagenknecht Alliance — for Reason and Fairness.” The aim is to formally launch the party in January, in time for European Parliament elections in June. Three state elections in Germany's formerly communist east will follow next fall.Wagenknecht offers a combination of left-wing economic policy, with high wages and generous benefits, and a restrictive approach to migration. She also questions some environmentalists' plans to combat climate change and opposes current sanctions against Russia, which was once Germany's leading gas supplier, and German arms supplies to Ukraine.Wagenknecht is launching her project at a time when center-left Chancellor Olaf Scholz's quarrelsome three-party coalition is deeply unpopular. National polls show mainstream opposition conservatives leading and Alternative for Germany, or AfD, in second place with around 20% support.“Many people don't know any more what they should vote for, or vote for the right out of anger and desperation,” Wagenknecht said. Wagenknecht, 54, grew up in East Germany and joined the ruling communist party in 1989. She was a prominent figure on its successor’s hard-left wing and in the Left Party, which emerged in 2005 when eastern ex-communists merged with western leftists disgruntled with welfare-state cuts.She said that with the economic sanctions against Russia, "we have cut off ourselves off from cheap energy without there being viable alternatives." She accused Scholz’s government of abandoning “the important tradition of detente” and argued that “conflicts cannot be resolved militarily — that goes for Ukraine, that goes for the Middle East and it goes for many other parts of the world.”“We must also get away from a blind, haphazard eco-activism that makes people's life even more expensive but doesn't actually benefit the climate at all,” she said, adding that a more useful contribution would be developing new technologies for a climate-neutral future.Wagenknecht argued that Germany's education system is failing many young people and “unregulated immigration is intensifying the problems in schools.”There has been widespread speculation that those positions could appeal to voters who might otherwise choose the nationalist, anti-migration AfD — particularly in the less prosperous east, where Wagenknecht's most recent party, the Left Party, has gradually declined over the years and AfD is at its strongest.“This niche that is opening up — stressing social justice and at same time ... positioning herself in a more migration-skeptical way — has potential,” Benjamin Hoehne, a political scientist at the University of Muenster, told ARD television. "Of course we won't make common cause with AfD," Wagenknecht said Monday. “We are launching a new party so that all the people who are now thinking about voting for AfD or who have already done so — out of anger, out of desperation, but not because they are right-wing — have a serious address.”The new party's immediate political effect is to endanger the Left Party, which only just managed to stay in the German parliament in the 2021 national election. Wagenknecht was co-leader of the party’s parliamentary group from 2015 to 2019, but long-running internal tensions have grown into a deep rift. The Left Party’s leadership backs a generous approach to migrants and strong action against climate change.She left the party on Monday along with Amira Mohamed Ali, the co-leader of its parliamentary group and now the chair of Wagenknecht's alliance, and eight other lawmakers.。
