Filmmaker Anees Bazmee, known for rib-tickling hits such as \u201cNo Entry\u201d, \u201cWelcome\u201d, \u201cSingh Is Kinng\u201d and \u201cReady\u201d, believes comedies enjoy more longevity as compared to other genres.
The writer-director, who is riding high on the success of his latest horror-comedy \u201cBhool Bhulaiyaa 2\u201d, said his brand of humour is situational. \u201cNo genre has a shelf life as good as a comedy. Everyone wants to laugh. There are different kinds of comedy films being made. But I don\u2019t use shortcuts in comedy. My films are situational comedies. I don\u2019t go for double meaning dialogues or do buffoonery to create comedy. Situational humour is the most difficult thing to do,\u201d Bazmee told PTI.
His inspiration, the filmmaker said, is late cinema icon Hrishikesh Mukherjee, who was known for his humorous take on life in films like \u201cBawarchi\u201d, \u201cChupke Chupke\u201d, \u201cKhoobsurat\u201d and \u201cKissi Se Na Kehna\u201d.
\u201cI love Hrishikesh Mukherjee\u2019s style of humour. He did it all in a simplistic manner and never tried hard to make people laugh,\u201d Bazmee added.
For the director, creating the world of horror topped with humour in \u201cBhool Bhulaiyaa 2\u201d was a challenging process. \u201cIt was a new world for me and I am glad people liked it. I always make movies for family audiences and when we were making this horror-comedy, we made sure that the horror element was not too scary for kids. It was a big challenge.\u201d The film, which released in May, features Kartik Aaryan, Tabu and Kiara Advani in lead roles. (PTI)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
