The diva fondly recollects memories and time spent with the late Hrishikesh Mukherjee.
He was a fellow-Libran. He called me Chinnapunnu - the Tamil term for 'little daughter'. I did some
of my best work with him. Hrishida was like a father-figure. He would give me dirty looks if I behaved
loudly. I was only 13 when I came into the industry.
I remember him calling me to his home. 'I see you in this role as a little daughter. You aren't just
a mischievous brat but you don't want to be told what to do. But you've great values. So, you do
the right things.'
That's how Hrishida conceived the character in Khubsoorat for me. We shot Khubsoorat in his house,
so I didn't feel I was shooting a film. Did I imitate Mr Bachchan in Khubsoorat? When you're working
in 10 films with Mr Bachchan you're bound to absorb some of his mannerisms. But I didn't do it
consciously.
Hrishida was such a fantastic editor. Before he reached the sets he had already completed the editing
in his mind. That's when I realised what a fantastic craftsman he was. My first film with Hrishida was
Namak Haraam.
I was part of this gang that included Amitji. We all used to gate-crash into Hrishida's place and
smother him with abeer.
Every year we made his life hell (laughs). And you know there was a holi sequence in Hrishida's Namak
Haraam and Alaap. We South Indians don't play Holi. I only remember it as something we - Amitji, his
Dad (Harivansh Rai Bachchan), his mom (Mrs Teji Bachchan) and Hrishida would get together to
celebrate.
His house was filled with cats, dogs and children. But Hrishida was happy living in the chaos. Hrishida
encouraged me to get my first pet Pishti. Hrishida connected me with the woman in me.
I shared a one-onone relationship with him. He gave me space to have fun and yet taught me a lot.
I met Hrishida off and on, but not as often as he'd have liked to.
He didn't stand out with his clothes, but with his personality. Like Bismillah Khan saab, Hrishida never
lost his spirit till the end.
When he lost his son and wife he became very depressed. But his sense of humour, often corny, saw
him through. He was protective of me. He'd crack dirty jokes with Amitji, not me. Hrishida is always
there.
Sorry, I couldn't see him in his last days. All the wonderful people like Sunil Dutt saab, Raj Kapoor saab,
Mohan Segal saab and Hrishida, who have such an impact on my life, I want to make them proud.
以上。
「EUREKHA!」には、監督が別嬪を呼ぶときのタミル語の呼称 Chinnapunnu は元々別嬪が監督に教えた
言葉であること、別嬪が脱税問題で経済的困難にあった時、監督が支援を申し出たこと（どちらも第20章）
等が書いてあります。
