Being History

In the time when every theater, new or old, in city of Bareilly is equipped with digital projection facility, Jagat Talkies keeps with its old tradition. Jagat Talkies, in Bara Bazar, was inaugurated in 1954 and the first film, it ran, was Raj Kapoor's Barsat.
I remember the days when Jagat was screening 'Jai Santoshi Ma'' non stop houseful, women use to leave their sleepers and shoes outside of the theater. It ran 100 plus days and they organised special women shows. Oh! those were the golden days of Hindi films and theaters.
I've fond memories of watching many films from projection room, in sweating heat, when it was houseful. Memories of projector operator of Palace Theater in Allahabad, taking a puff of his cigarette leaning on the wall towards the road still make me nostalgic. Two years ago, I was told that old projectors were history as films are digitized now.
Jagat Talkies runs old films, as they are in print and out there is a lot who appreciates old movies and experience of theater. Today I spent few hours with Veerpal, the projector operator and Ram Chandra Saxena, the supervisor. Glimpses....

Now I'm 51 years old. And water is coming out from my eyes to see it. I never forget the Golden life.

[@firozkhanpathan9216]

मुझे मेरे बचपन के खिलोने की याद आ गई, मेरे बचपन में मैं एक टुरींग टाॅकीज का मालिक था । मैं छठ्ठी कक्षामें पडता था जब मेरे पापा ने एक टुरींग टाॅकीज खरीदीथी वह भी उन्हीके एक दोस्तने ऊन्हे किश्तोपर दिथी। पहले वह आॅपरेटर की नोकरी किया करते थे। और मैं बचपन में ही आहे आपरेट करना सिख लीया था। 1987 से लेकरं 2007 का वह बडा याद आता है। बडे अच्छे थे वह दिन।

[@SamvadNews]

आपका बहुत शुक्रिया, फ़िरोज़ ख़ान. अब बताने से अब यह जानने की दिलचस्पी पैदा हो गई है कि फिर उस टुअरिंग टाकीज़ का क्या हुआ. कहां-कहां जाते थे औऱ उन्हें देखने वाले लोगों की प्रतिक्रिया भी. कभी समय हो तो अपना तजुर्बा भी बताइगा.

[@perfectcomputersolution4837]

बचपन याद आ गई ..... कई साल पहले प्रोजेक्टर रूम में जाकर देखा था कैसे फिल्मे चलाई जाती थी.....वाकई कमाल की बात थी आज के समय के हिसाब से ......वो ईस्टमेन प्लास्टिक रोलफिल्म और वो कार्बन की दो स्टिक जिससे प्रोजेक्टर में आर्क करके रोशनी की जाती थी...

[@bravindra9219]

I have watched movies screening with single projector with 6 times break. When double projectors started with single interval it was a wonder. Old days are golden days. We can't forget cinema projectors, steam engines with manual signals, cycle rickshaws, horse jatkas, school bell, etc. Thanks for the video.

[@prabhatjourno]

Thank you for writing. Am curious to know when and where it was, I mean single projector and six intervals.

[@ashoksoni7469]

प्रोजेक्टर रुम मंदिर के समान होता था। मशीन सुंदर और जीवंतता से भरपूर होती थीं। अनेक थियेटरों में प्रोजेक्शन रुम सड़क के किनारे होते थे। और बाहर लोग घंटों मशीनों को निहारते व फिल्म के साउंड ट्रैक को सुनते हुए खड़े रहते थे।

[@prabhatjourno]

बहुत सुंदर भाव हैं, सोनी जी..हाँ, प्रोजेक्शन रूम में काम करने वाले उसे मंदिर की तरह ही मानते थे. इलाहाबाद के पैलेस सिनेमाघर का प्रोजेक्शन रूम सड़क की ओर खुलता था और देर रात उधर से गुज़रते हुए कार्बन आर्क की चमक साफ़ दिखाई देती थी. क्या आपका कोई नाता रहा है, प्रोजेक्शन रूम से?

[@AmitKumar-xb5gp]

मैं भी प्रयागराज (इलाहाबाद) का वासी हु। मैंने भी पुराने पैलेस (1990 to till closed) को देखा है। गर्मी के दिनों में प्रोजेक्टर रूम की खिड़की पीछे की तरफ खोल दिया जाता था। जब शाम को सिविल लाइन जाते और पैलेस के सामने से गुजरने पर प्रोजेक्टर की बैक लैम्प लाइट दिखाई पड़ती थी और एक व्यक्ति रील को हाथ से रिवर्स करता हुआ सड़क से ही दिखाई पड़ता था। फिर हम दोस्तों में कहते इनके पास कोई मोटर नही है रील रिवर्स करने के लिये हाथ से ही काम लेते है। फिर 2011 में नया पैलेस बन गया। किसी PVR, मल्टीप्लेक्स के सिनेमाहॉल की तरह । पर सिर्फ सिंगल स्क्रीन का। उसमे भी मैंने फ़िल्म मद्रास कैफ़े देखी थी एक बार।

[@sreekumarprs3213]

i loved the film projector and its sound, a lot since my childhood ,i tried to make a prototype my own then but never succeed, But today, i can realize that its a highly mechanical device which consumes lot of power load

[@johnedwards8896]

My dad was a projectionist never needed 2 people to run the projectors he did the change overs him self even 70mm prints .

[@prabhatjourno]

I salute his passion. It was more than a job for people who loved it.

[@moldyoldie7888]

When Palo Alto's Stanford Theater ran nitrate prints, they had a 2nd projectionist, apparently required by an ordinance of some sort.

[@ykishore4340]

It is as dreary a job as that of the fireman in a steam loco. Only the most stolid person will do these jobs. Loneliness in projection room is depressing.

[@gamer-mm6ft]

When I see this projector I remember my childhood memories

[@prabhatjourno]

So true Mr Mahendra. It's kind of nostalgia.

Bank where I worked for long years has been merged with another Bank. I feel that my identity and love has vanished into thin air! There are so many things more precious than money. Makes me choke when I think of it. I feel that 'I don't belong' when I do visit the branch. No words to express my feelings. I can relate to the feelings of these theatre people. Be well Brothers.

[@king_has_no_clothskul8635]

it is still an event. what are you talking about? nothing has really changed. digital projectors also need full attention. heat, servers, power etc etc. in fact the projection rooms are cleaner than the stink like back in the days. in fact it is bigger event as movies technology has gone crazy and nothing is cheap out there.
