Sadly, Yaadein, which also made it to Guinness Book of World Records under the category ' Fewest actors in a narrative film', is awfully undervalued on its home turf. But what truly makes Dutt's first film as director stand apart is that it's entirely his show - as the opening credit proudly proclaims - World's First One-Actor Movie.Įven the popular website Flavorwire couldn't overlook Yaadein, as one of the 10 most memorable one-actor movies, along with Robert Altman's Secret Honor and Andy Warhol's Sleep.

The actor/filmmaker was hit by such a bad case of loneliness after his family (wife Nargis and kids - Sanjay, Namrata and Priya) took off on a vacation, it sparked off an idea for a curious premise - how would a husband react if he returned to an empty house and learned his wife has left him for good.Īlthough this plot line would make little sense in the age of 3G cell phones, Wi-Fi technology and rampant social networking, Yaadein seems quite plausible in a time when even dial phones were a luxury only a select few could afford.

Inspiration has a knack for striking on unexpected moments only to produce something so exceptional it's probably ahead of its time. And the most novel film of Sunil Dutt's creative career, Yaadein is a excellent example of this belief.
