In Which Annie Gives it Those Ones is a 1989 Indian English-language TV film written by Arundhati Roy and directed by Pradip Krishen. It stars Arjun Raina as the title character, with Roshan Seth and Arundhati Roy in key roles.[1] The film also features Shahrukh Khan and Manoj Bajpayee, both then struggling actors in the Delhi theatre circuit, in small but significant roles. Set in the 1970s, in the National Institute of Architecture, New Delhi, the plot revolves around Anand Grover, known as Annie, a misguided visionary who gets into trouble for making fun of the principal, Y.D. Billimoria known as Yamdoot.[2]
The film was the recipient of two National Awards in 1989.[3] It acquired a cult status in the years after it was made.[4][5][6] The original print of the movie is lost. Previously, the only copies of the film in circulation were those that were recorded on Video Cassette Recorder when the film was screened on Doordarshan. However, camera recordings of these video cassette tapes were also made, and subsequently posted on YouTube to where they are still available now. The film was made for TV and never released theatrically. It was shown on Doordarshan in 1989.
The film was part autobiographical with Roy recounting her own experiences of studying in the School of Planning and Architecture, Delhi, a leading architecture institute in India. This was the first screenplay by Roy, the second movie by Krishen after his colonial-period drama Massey Sahib (1985).[7] The film is noted for one of the earliest cinematic appearances of Shahrukh Khan.[8]
