Production[edit]
The project was originally to be directed by Sameer Sharma, who had shot some portions of the film, but producer Aanand L. Rai was not happy with the rough cut and stopped the shooting. He then approached Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari to direct it, but she could not do it because of her 'prior commitments'.[8] In November 2016, it was announced that Anurag Kashyap will now be directing Manmarziyaan written by Kanika Dhillon. Initially, it was reported by the media that Dulquer Salmaan, Ayushmann Khurrana and Bhumi Pednekar were cast in the film, but they dropped out of the film. Abhishek Bachchan was then brought in as a replacement for Dulquer Salmaan.[8][15] Abhishek Bachchan and Anurag Kashyap had differences in the past; one of the reasons being Kashyap's criticism of Bachchan's 2010 movie Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Sey. They had however resolved their differences and were excited to work together again when the opportunity arose.[16] The movie marked Bachchan's return to acting after a 2 year hiatus. The film was shot in Punjab, while some portions in Delhi and Kashmir.[17]
Box office[edit]
Manmarziyaan did good business at the box office overall. It had a fair weekend at the box office as it managed to collect ₹4 crore on opening day. The film saw further jump in collections on Sunday as a result of which ₹5.70 crore more came in. The worldwide gross of the movie was ₹40.39 crore.[2]
Reception[edit]
Manmarziyan received generally positive reviews. Critics praised the film for its contemporary take on a love story and the overall strong performances from its cast. Taapsee Pannu received universal praise for her performance as the mercurial Rumi. As a love-triangle with a running length of 155 minutes, the subject matter was a venture into conventional Bollywood territory for director Anurag Kashyap. Critic Anupama Chopra noted 'director Anurag Kashyap, Hindi cinema’s high priest of darkness, turns his ferocious gaze on relationships. Obviously then, this is not the routine Bollywood meet cute. Director Anurag and writer Kanika Dhillon have created a fully realized world that is fueled by Amit Trivedi’s pulsating soundtrack'[18] Times Of India's critic Rachit Gupta said 'The maturity with which Anurag Kashyap’s Manmarziyaan talks about love and relationships is refreshing. The seemingly conventional story of a love triangle, gets original with its treatment and portrayal of love. With characters constantly oscillating between confusion and complex emotions, Manmarziyaan presents a new and updated look at romance and relationships.'[19]
Raja Sen, writing for Hindustan Times, critiqued the film saying 'There is authenticity to the texture, but this film could have held more. It is ultimately a disappointment not because of its craft, but because of predictability, self-indulgent pace and its irritating attempt to be both a light crowd-pleaser with a cutesy ending as well as an impassioned, volatile romance.' Filmfare movie critic Debesh Sharma adds 'Shot well by Sylvester Fonseca and edited well by Aarti Bajaj, the film scores on technical fronts as well.'[20]
The movie received a limited international release with the title 'Husband Material' including a premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival in September 2018.
The movie received high praise for seamlessly weaving its soundtrack into the story.

Plot[edit]
In 1960s Bombay, Balraj (Ranbir Kapoor) is a street fighter/boxer who is in love with the jazz singer Rosie (Anushka Sharma). Seeing Rosie with wealthy men further sparks his dream of becoming a 'big-shot', believing that if he manages to become rich, he might win Rosie's heart. Balraj and his friend Chimman (Satyadeep Mishra) then catch the eye of Kaizad Khambatta (Karan Johar), a wealthy businessman who is impressed by Balraj and offers him the chance to manage his club 'Bombay Velvet', which Khambatta uses to further his illegal tasks and activities. He also nicknames Balraj 'Johnny', which then becomes his identification. As well as this, Johnny and Chimman fulfill minor tasks for Khambatta, including capturing a dirty photograph of a minister who Khambatta wants to blackmail. This news reaches Jimmy Mistri, a media reporter, who also happens to be the same wealthy man Johnny had previously seen Rosie with.
Remembering that Johnny has a crush on Rosie, Mistri takes advantage of this and sends Rosie to Johnny's club to get her hands on the photograph of the minister. However, Rosie and Johnny eventually fall in love, and Mistri threatens to reveal Rosie's true identity to Johnny. Therefore, Rosie begins to supply information about Johnny & Khambatta's activities to Mistri. After a photograph of a secret meeting between Bombay's big-shots is leaked, Khambatta guesses that it was Rosie supplying the information and orders her to be killed. Johnny hears of this and forms an enmity with Khambatta, the man who brought him into the crime world.
Johnny fakes Rosie's death and makes her act as if she is her long dead twin sister Rita. But soon Khambatta realises the truth, kidnaps Rosie and tries to kill Johnny and they get into a standoff at Bombay Velvet. Khambatta shoots Rosie to provoke Johnny. Johnny angry at this stabs Khambatta and is himself shot dead while trying to carry Rosie to the hospital, outside the club. It is revealed before the end credits that Rosie survived her gunshot.

Production[edit]
Development[edit]
Kashyap was inspired to make such a film after reading L.A. Quartet, a sequence of four crime fiction novels by James Ellroy, set in the late 1940s through the late 1950s in Los Angeles.[6] The novels inspired him to 'dig into the dark trenches of the history of Bombay',[6] where he 'found a treasure trove that was never-ending'.[6]
Bombay Velvet was initially to be produced by Viacom18 but Fox STAR Studios decided to co-produce it with Phantom Films. It is based on Gyan Prakash's book Mumbai Fables and set in early 1950's towards 1970's, before Mumbai became a metropolis. Prakash is also one of the scriptwriters for the film.[7]
Casting[edit]
Although Hrithik Roshan, Aamir Khan, Ranveer Singh and Saif Ali Khan were considered,[8]Ranbir Kapoor was cast as a street fighter, and Anushka Sharma was cast as a jazz singer.[9][10] Kapoor explained his casting, 'The script of Bombay Velvet just fell into my lap. I read it and I knew immediately that I wanted to be part of Anurag's grand vision, his innovative storytelling, his movie-making process; everything that he does so perfectly.'[11] This was director Karan Johar's second film after Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge; he was cast as the film's primary antagonist, Kaizad Khambata.[12] His role is said to have been inspired from Russi Karanjia.[13]
Filming[edit]
Principal photography began in mid-July 2013 and continued till early September 2013.[14] The first schedule was shot at Sri Lanka's Ranmihitenna Mahinda Rajapaksa National Tele Cinema Park, Hambantota. Filming was also done in Colombo, Galle, and Pasikudah.[15][16] The second schedule was also in Mahinda Rajapaksa National Tele Cinema Park, Sri Lanka, where Sharma and Kapoor rejoined the filming in February. The second schedule completed in March. Parts of the set was left at the National Tele Cinema Park, rather than being dismantled, as it will be used as a tourist attraction site. The third and final schedule was in Mumbai where shooting was held for a ten-day period.
Editing[edit]
The film was released in only one version and was edited in collaboration by Prerna Saigal (The Lunchbox) and Academy Award-winning editor Thelma Schoonmaker.[17]
Themes[edit]
Bombay Velvet is influenced by Classic Hollywood cinema including Film Noir with its stereotypical caricatures like gangsters, gun molls and femme fatales. The movie draws inspiration from gangster films of the '30s and the '40s like The Roaring Twenties and White Heat and neo-noir films like Chinatown and L.A. Confidential.[18][19]
Marketing[edit]
A teaser of the film's first-look was released on 28 January 2015, it featured Ranbir Kapoor's avatar in the film 'Johnny Balraj', the 'big shot'. On 29 January 2015, the official first poster was revealed, featuring Johnny Balraj wearing a pinstriped suit and wielding a Thompson submachine gun in each arm.[20] An official trailer was released during the India vs Bangladesh2015 Cricket World Cup quarter final match, with Kapoor present at the Star Sports 3 studio with the commentators.[21] The film also attracted brand associations worth Rs.20 Crore with brands like Reliance Jio Chat, Saavn, Gillete, GoDaddy among others. To build hype and buzz around the film, Fox Star India and Phantom Films crowdsourced the official fan art for the movie by running a poster design contest on Cupick.[22]

Critical reception[edit]
Performances of Kapoor, Sharma and Johar received positive reviews but the incoherent script was criticised. Arunava Chatterjee of Indiatoday rated it 3.5 stars and said, 'While vintage seems to be the new fad in Bollywood, Bombay Velvet deserves a standing ovation in this age of run-of-the-mill Friday releases.'[27] Bollywood Hungama also gave it 3.5 stars and said, 'On the whole, Bombay Velvet is a visual masterpiece that is rich in form. If you want to be wowed by the detailing of the 1960s, superb performances of Ranbir Kapoor, Karan Johar and Anushka Sharma, then go ahead and watch this film.'[28] Shubha Saha of Mid Day gave Bombay Velvet 3.5 stars and said, 'Bombay Velvet is more like a roller coaster ride, as it takes you on a dizzy high with its charming ambience and music that is bound to stay with you for long, but later you are brought down not so gently with the underwhelming plot and lack of punches. Watch it for the experience.'[29] However, in its screening in Locarno, the film was met with critical acclaim.[30]
Box office[edit]
The film opened to dull occupancy ranging 10%–20% on first day and on the second day half of the theatres removed it. On the third day it disappeared from all cinemas as the halls were empty. [31] The film collected ₹52 million (US$750,000) on first day [32]
