Send Flowers to Malegaon

Malegaon is located on the Mumbai-Agra national highway (N.H.03) at the confluence of Mausam and Girna Rivers. Situated on the road linking Mumbai and Agra — now National Highway No 3 — it was once a small junction known as Maliwadi (hamlet of gardens) and quickly gained the reputation for being a source of employment. When a local jahagirdar, Naro Shankar Raje Bahadur, started building a fort in the area in 1740, a project that took 25 years, a sizeable number of Muslim workers and artisans from places like Surat and northern India settled in the area. After the British capture of the Malegaon fort in 1818, Muslims from Hyderabad migrated to the region. The 1857 revolt saw many Muslims from the north locate themselves here, and the pattern kept repeating itself over the years. Malegaon, with its growing Muslim presence, became something of a shelter and a source of employment for the community whenever it faced reversals. If famine in 1862 forced Muslim weavers in the Varanasi area to move to Malegaon, the political upheavals in the Hyderabad of the late 1940s and 1950s saw a similar exodus to the town. Communal riots, specially from the 1960s onwards, have also undoubtedly contributed to swelling the number of Muslim migrants to Malegaon.
Malegaon’s notoriously wacky spoof industry, has introduced many classic Hollywood and Bollywood characters to the satellite town of Malegaon by giving them its quintessential dialogue, looks, circumstances and well, food. After having conquered local imagination with such cult spoofs as Malegaon ke Sholay, Malegaon ka James Bond and Malegaon Ka Superman, the impoverished film-maker is now ready to invade national television with his second version of Malegaon Ka Chintu, Chintu ban gaya Gentleman. A mute comedy based loosely on Mr Bean, the film will go on air next month (Aug 2010). “It will be full of one-minute gags, and the protagonist will be played by another Malegaon-based film director”, reveals Nasir, whose stint as a video parlor owner was instrumental in sowing the seeds of film-making in this frail shopkeeper’s head.
