"The Other Kind of Classics" presents "Mr. Prime Minister"!
Dev Anand made many wonderful, memorable movies. But then
he kept on making a ton of trash ones. Even Jewel Thief was not spared
with a hideous sequel called "The return of Jewel Thief". Blow by blow,
Dev saab painstakingly dismantled the temple he had created.
But I digress. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade. So it is with this "movie" called "Mr Prime Minister". Enjoy it!
The story - cough, cough! is as follows:
Kutch earthquake survivor Johnny Master (Dev saab) sells
newspapers for a living in a small village in Gujarat. Residents of the
village form a new political party and make Johnny their candidate. He
wins, his opponents kidnap him. After being tortured, Johnny regains his
memory to discover that he is Prem Batra, the third richest Indian in
the UK! On the day of his arrival in Kutch, he had become a victim of
the earthquake. Johnny busts corrupt politicians and becomes India's
prime minister.
The scene below shows Johnny watching 9/11 disaster happening from some unknown hotel window.
Points to be noted in just this one scene:
1. Ranchi waala aircrash bhi 9/11 ko hua tha.
2. As many extras as possible were crammed into the room.
3. There is a naked guy among the shocked onlookers.

4. A plane crashing into a building must create a mushroom cloud, because it looks exactly like an atom bomb.
5. Dev Saab and Ex-NYC mayor Rudy Giuliani were buddies.
6. Rudy got a check for $1 million from Dev saab. He never quite recovered from this shock and became the raving lunatic Trump supporter that he is today.

7. The lady casually donated blood for *all* the ghayal log in the WTC towers. Manmohan Desai had nothing on her!
