Considering
the
word"s
surging
popularity
Prakash
Jha
has
registered
the
title
Karaara
for
one
of
his
future
projects.
Besides
giving
Bollywood
its
first
bonafide
political
hit
Raajneeti
has
also
added
a
new
aggressive
adjective
to
the
normal
filmy
vocabulary.
So
powerful
and
all-pervasive
is
the
impact
of
the
word
'Karaara"(powerful)
that
it"s
now
being
used
liberally
at
celebrity
events
and
reality
shows.
Prakash
Jha
who
co-wrote
the
dialogues
of
Raajneeti(with
Anjum
Rajabali)
was
shocked
to
hear
judges
on
reality-
television
using
the
word.
“I
was
quite
taken
back
when
after
a
contestant"s
performance
a
celebrity
judge
turned
around
to
call
it
a
'karaara
performance".
Good
that
we"ve
added
a
weighty
word
to
filmy
dialogues." Not
so
good
is
the
clamour
to
register
film
titles
with
the
word
'Karaara"
in
it.
Jha
was
alarmed
when
his
office
started
getting
calls
from
several
production
houses
asking
if
the
word
Karaara
was
copyrighted
by
Prakash
Jha
as
a
film
title.
Says
Jha,
“It
was
only
then
that
I
realized
I
had
give
a
potential
title
for
the
title-starved
industry.
Though
I
don"t
intend
to
name
any
of
my
new
film
Karaara
I"ve
registered
it
for
future
reference
in
various
combinations
and
permutations
including
of
course
Manoj
Bajpai"s
rabble-rousing
“Karaara
Jawaab
Milehga"."
Jha
will
part
with
the
precious
word
on
only
one
condition.
“If
Karan
Johar
asks
me
for
it
I"ll
give
to
him.
I
know
he"s
strapped
for
Hindi
titles." In
the
meanwhile
Manoj
Bajpai
who
uttered
the
word
on
screen
suddenly
has
catchphrase
to
combat
the
other
popular
Bihari
Babu
Shatrughan
Sinha"s
Khamosh!.
Manoj
is
being
requested
at
every
public
event
to
say
the
line
“Karaara
Jawaab
Milega."
Says
Bajpai,
“I
remember
after
Satya
I
was
asked
to
say
'Bombay
Ka
King
Kaun?
Now
it"s
'Karaara
Jawaab
Milega" Not
bad."
Manoj
has
been
asked
by
at
least
two
filmmakers
to
use
it
in
his
forthcoming
films
.
But
he
refuses
to
do
so.
“I
said
the
catch
phrase
in
Raajneeti.
But
they
were
written
by
Prakash
Jha
and
Anjum
Rajabali.
I"ve
no
rights
over
them
