Alireza Khamse cursed me!/ They wonder why my hair has turned white – Mehr news agency Iran and world’s news
Jahanbakhsh Soltani, an experienced actor of cinema and television, in a conversation with Mehr reporter about his latest activities, said: The new work of Mr. Hassan Eklili, which is the new season of “Mr. Trapped”, was supposed to be released in Isfahan, so we went to Isfahan for this reason, but due to work stoped. We had signed all the contracts, but for some reason, they suddenly announced that the work needed to be rewritten and the work was stopped. I, who have lived in Tehran for more than 40 years, returned home from Isfahan!
In response to whether he prefers to participate in television projects, he explained: Our main desire is to work in cinema, and I prefer to be in cinema, but when there is no work in cinema, it doesn’t matter what is offered. go to work We are present in projects mainly because of the passing of affairs in this difficult time. Probably, for most of the actors, appearing in the cinema is a priority, because the movies are seen in festivals and become more durable due to reviews. Actors in the main role of movies are usually more exposed to criticism and questions, and for this reason, they feel more effective presence on the stage.
At the same time, Soltani confirmed that the audience of TV series is more than that of movies and said: TV audiences are definitely respectful, but for an actor who is waiting for a new offer, being in a movie project and working with great directors is more attractive. Every year, Fajr festivals are filled with audiences who are interested in seeing the new films of actors and criticizing their work from different angles.
I will never regret entering acting
This veteran actor also said about whether he ever regretted entering the acting field or not: The fact is that we have chosen to enter this field based on knowledge and awareness, and the issue of regret is not an issue for us at all. What else would we do if we didn’t become actors? Blacksmithing? After all, artistic work has its ups and downs, and the amount of activity and work proposal depends on parameters such as our age. It is important whether the filmmakers have a role suitable for our age in the context of their dramatic narrative that we can play in it. manna And stay? Definitely, if I go back, I will choose the same profession again.
Maybe I can express my feeling towards this profession with this poem that “The sorrow of love is just a story, it’s amazing. Because every language I hear is unrepeatable” even when we want to object to the situation, we say: “It should and is not according to the taste of the art people of the time, it should not and is according to the nature of the artless people of the sky!” What else can be said?
Soltani said: Today I am in control of this profession and I am noble in its various dimensions. Maybe I can express my feeling towards this profession with this poem that “The sorrow of love is just a story, it’s amazing. Because every language I hear is unrepeatable” even when we want to object to the situation, we say: “It should and is not according to the taste of the art people of the time, it should not and is according to the nature of the artless people of the sky!” What else can be said?
This veteran film and television actor said about the most lasting image that people remember from his roles: Most of the works in which I have played a role have had a special place among the audience. Among the films related to the eight years of sacred defense, I can mention “Afq” by the late Malaqlipour, “Hamaseh Majnoon” and “Shab Daham” by Jamal Shurjeh. In those years, we were working in Abadan and Ahvaz in the Holy Defense films and in the region for about 4 years Darkhvin At night, we slept in Shahid Kharazi’s tent. During those years, we acted with love and passion in the films of Holy Defense and people liked it very much.
He added: I also had the experience of working with the late Pourahmad in the series “Qasehaye Majid” and “Clues” on TV. The movie “Shame” was also created in the form of this collaboration, for which I received the Simorgh Award for Best Supporting Actor for participating in the Fajr Film Festival and in competition with Akbar Abdi and Faramarz Gharokan. After many years, many people still remember Banda with “Magic stories” and “Clues”. We once went to Isfahan to build “Clues 2”, but that project was not completed either.
People are surprised that my hair has turned so white!
Soltani said: “Many people know me for the roles of the holy defense, especially since recently the movie “Afq” has been rebroadcast on TV several times, and some people express surprise that I was in that movie! A film that showed the power of our forces in the war, and we were underwater for about 8 months to make it! The story of the movie was full of love and epic. After all these years, people are surprised that our hair has turned white. People want the hero they love to stay the same forever and never change.
He also said about the special reactions of the people in the streets and alleys towards him: whether we like it or not, people are kind to us. Basically, the real artist is always there and never dies, why? Because the artist is always present in the soul and spirit of a society. Society is full of memories of artists and because people remember these memories and live with their works, we can say that a real artist never closes his eyes to the world.
This veteran actor continued: Some people sometimes complain to me about the role of Nazim that I played in “Majid Tales”, why did you treat a young man who was passionate about life like this and Harassment you would give In response, I also said that in one of the episodes, I asked the children to write about the most useful job and I expected Majid to write about us moderators. What should I have done? (laughs)
Soltani about communication with Majid closeness The actor who played the role of “Majid” also said: I had no relationship with him, but no one approached him after that series, and it is not a joke that a teenager is abandoned at the peak of fame. Majid also shined in that series. In the same years, I went to him myself. I wrote a telefilm and made it with my own production and direction, and I gave the lead role to Majid so that he could experience acting again with me. In those years, Isfahan TV also helped in this field.
I was surprised by Pourahmad’s memory
The actor of the movie “Magic Tales” mentioned the memory of Kyomarth Pourahmad and said: “Death is right and whatever God wills, it will happen.” We are all tools and I wish we could become good tools in our lives. We were very good friends and their house was only 10 minutes away from our house. I usually went to him and we read scripts and books. He even remembered memories from when I was chosen that I did not remember. One day he showed me a picture and said, do you remember this picture? I said no. He said that this is related to the time when I was coming from Najaf Abad to Isfahan and you kept insisting that I give you a role! I was surprised that he remembered those memories so clearly.
In response to whether there is a role he is still interested in being offered, the actor said: I have played various roles in my career. Thank God that the platform was ready and I was able to have from historical roles to holy defense roles, social roles and even comedy in my portfolio. I remember the movie “Mahriyeh Bibi” in which I acted opposite Mr. Khamse, was a disaster at the box office.
In the end, Soltani mentioned a memory of appearing in the comedy film “Mahriyeh Bibi” and said: I was the hero of the sacred defense films in those years. Akbar Abdi was supposed to act in this movie alongside Khamsa, but for some reasons there was a difference and Abdi had withdrawn from the work. Reza Banki, who had previously worked with me as a cameraman and knew that I am a joker behind the scenes, introduced me to this project. At first, the director was opposed to me acting in a comedy role, but when we acted, it did so well at the box office that Alireza Khamse cursed me later! I said why? He said that since you played a comedy role in front of me, no one else offered me a comedy role!
