Wealthy, powerful and influential Seth Dharamdas leads a financially secure life in a palatial mansion. He is known to come to the aid of all people who are beyond any hope of assistance, and this leads to him being known as "Dharmatma". But Seth Dharamdas does have a number of skeletons in his closet, and a parallel life as a gangster. The only person Dharamdas hates and fears is none other than his very own son, Ranbir, who has sworn that he will never compromise with his father's dark career, and threatens to expose him. Dharamdas has never conceded surrender or defeat at the hands of any mortal, and will never even consider to do so - even if this means the death of Ranbir. Songs include "Tere cheherey mein woh jadoo hai..."; "Tum ne kisise kabhi pyar kiya hai, pyar bhara dil kisiko diya hai...".
RGV's Sarkar begins with the director admitting to being deeply influenced by The Godfather like countless directors all over the world. Feroz Khan's Dharmatma marks the beginning of this obsession with Indian film-makers. Given the exalted status of The Godfather with nearly every cinema buff and the fact that adaptations in the Indian milieu have resulted in films like Nayakan and Parinda, I thought Dharmatma was worth a watch. Having watched it, I've to say that despite the patchy feel of the film, there are items of interest here and noteworthy too.
Foremost among them is the portion of the film that plays out in Afghanistan (a first for Indian cinema). Hema Malini (as an Afghan clanswoman named Reshma !), Danny Denzongpa and Feroz Khan spice up this sequence that is remarkably well shot by any standards (Buzkashi) and lingers long after the viewing. Premnath in the title role is the other interesting aspect of the film. I'd seen him in Bobby but little else. His portrayal here is just as interesting in its angst and justification for the means he adopts as is the employment of matka (an Indian form of gambling). That it isn't expanded upon is more to do with the way the script handles the character.
Apart from these, the viewing also made me think about the meaning of the word adaptation in the cinematic idiom. When one is besotted with an original, how does one strike a balance between faithful recreation and assuming creative license ? Even more valid is the question - how does one identify the aspects of the original that may not be acceptable to the target audience of the adaptation ? For Feroz Khan in this film shares very little with Michael Corleone and undergoes a transformation so minimal in that his fundamentals are hardly shaken by the turn of events. In an act of complete dilution, he is also spared the moral dilemma of having to plan the demise of his brother-in-law too.
With having enjoyed watching a Curry Western starring producer/lead actor/director Feroz Khan a while ago,I was delighted to spot a 1975 gangster film from Khan that I could watch for a poll taking place on IMDbs Classic Film board,which led to me getting ready to meet the "god man"
The plot:
Despite having had the opportunity to send the city down the drain,local gangster Dharmatma has done everything he can to stick to his principles,which along with stopping the trafficking of hard drugs into the city,also involves using the money he raises from his illegal gambling activates to be put towards the creation of free schools.Whilst his dads principles have won a lot of fans, Ranbir has always been disguised by the way his dad goes about his business.
Sick of Dharmatma's grip on the city,a rival gangster called Jeevan feels that its time the old timer got pushed aside,so that the city can be saturated with hard drugs.Finding it impossible to find a weak spot in Dharmatma's political connections in the city,Jeevan finally sees his chance when Ranbir makes a surprise return,which leads to Jeevan setting his sights on bringing the family down.
View on the film:
Whilst Feroz Khan never quite gets the threads in Kaushal Bharati's screenplay to fully gel together,he makes sure that his attempts are never a dull experience, thanks to Khan sweeping across the movie with a delightfully bonkers directing style,which goes from covering a bustling night club (back with a Gary Glitter song!) in screeching reds,to sheep busting each other's heads! For the first ever Bollywood movie to be shot in Afghanistan,Khan and cinematographer Kamal Bose use superb wide shots to create a rugged atmosphere,by displaying the dry to the bone locations that the gangsters attempted takeover takes place in.
Giving the character a warm nature lacking in Bharati's screenplay, Prem Nath gives an excellent performance as "Darmatma",with Nath knocking Dharmatma's hard exterior to reveal a man with strong (flawed) principles,whose goals are always related to what is best for his family/the city.Joining Nath, Anokhelal gives a wickedly deranged performance as Anokhelal,whilst Feroz Khan does very well at showing a delicate nervousness ,as he prepares to reunite with his Dharmatma.
