普京不久将访问北京，与中国领导人习近平会面，届时几乎不会出现对中俄无上限伙伴关系持怀疑态度的人所说的分歧。    Filmmaker Anil Sharma's association with Dharmendra and the Deol family goes back a long way. He had directed the late actor in Hukumat (1987), which went on to be one of the biggest blockbusters of the filmmaker's career. Together, they delivered more hits such as Elaan-E-Jung (1989), Farishtay (1991) and Apne (2007). Filmfare caught up with Sharma, who opened his heart about this bond with Dharmendra.Excerpts:     What kind of an impact did Dharamji have on your life and career?     My entire career exists because of him. The first star I ever saw on the big screen was Dharmendra. When I became an assistant director, I worked with him on The Burning Train (1980). And the biggest blockbuster of my life, my first blockbuster Hukumat was also with him. We also did Elaan-E-Jung, Farishtay (1991) and Tahalka (1992), and all four were hits.          I worked with his son Sunny Deol on Gadar: Ek Prem Katha (2001). I produced Policewala Gunda (1995) and directed Ab Tumhare Hawale Watan Saathiyo (2004) with Bobby Deol. My film Apne had all the three Deols in it. Then there were The Hero: Love Story of a Spy (2003) and Singh Saab The Great (2013). My whole life has been spent working with the Deols and most with Dharamji. I consider myself fortunate to have worked with this family and Dharmendra. He was a legend, an era by himself . People love him so much because he too loved them in equal measure.     Go on...     Dharmendra was a young man from Sahnewal... He would stand before the Frontier Mail train and say, 'Frontier, please take me to Bombay.' And truly, Dharmendra became the film industry. He would have 6–7 releases in a single year, and all of them were hits… Today, if an actor gives even three hits in a year, he’ll run around with a sword, ready to conquer the entire country.     Dharmendra ji delivered massive blockbusters that no hero today has ever seen on that scale. It was not just action films that worked. He did films like Anupama, Chupke Chupke, Naya Zamana, Mera Gaon Mera Desh, Pratigya, Yaadon Ki Baarat, Hukumat. He had such a range! All these were hit films. And he was so handsome… It felt like God crafted him with his own hands, and then broke the mould forever. He was what you truly call, 'a Greek God'. Today we loosely call many heroes 'Greek God' but the real Greek God was Dharmendra.          It is said that he never increased his fee even after delivering blockbusters...He had multiple hits releasing at the same time. When he watched Hukumat, he liked it a lot. His payment terms used to be that some money was given during production and the rest upon release. So, he told me, 'Anil, you've made such a wonderful film, I'm waving off my entire balance fee.' He would waive off his remaining payment if you made a good film. He had no attachment to money; his attachment was only to good cinema.     How was your last meeting with him?     It was a couple of months ago. He asked me about the films I was working on. He then said that he wants to do such a film that the world will watch in awe and asked me to find a role for him. He said, "Camera meri mehbooba hai, aur mujhe miss kar rahi hai..." (Camera is my beloved, and she is missing me) I'm missing her too and I have to go back to her. He actually had a film ready to release and in the last couple of years, he had done films, and he had such passion even at the age of 89. He would tell me, "Just watch, I’ll do such good work that the world will watch… you’ll see what I’ll do. You’ll see." It felt like he was the same little boy from Sahnewal.                                                                 View this post on Instagram          A post shared by Anil Sharma (@anilsharma_dir)               How was Dharmendra as a person when the cameras stopped rolling?      Dharamji never realised how big his stardom and influence was. We would tell him that you are such a big star and he would say, "I am nothing...I am just a farmer, a man of the soil." In fact, the entire Deol family is like that. They genuinely believe they are still new and have a lot more to achieve. Dharam ji once said that he worked only for the people and their love. He came to be a part of the film industry, and he didn’t just become a part of it, he became the film industry itself.     Tell us about Sher, Dharmendra's shelved James Bond style spy thriller...     Sher goes back to 1988. I wanted to make a James Bond–style film. Recently the poster suddenly resurfaced, and everyone was shocked seeing Dharmendra with such a fantastic, powerful physique. I was a big fan of Bond films, because what does a Bond film need? Personality, handsomeness, wit, romance in the eyes, action prowess, intelligence, and Dharam ji had every single one of those qualities. But somehow, the film couldn’t get made. Hukumat hadn’t released yet at that time and I had signed Sher during Hukumat itself. The producer ran into some issues. If the film had been made, it would have been something remarkable in Dharamji’s career. I still have the script with me. Even now, people tell me to make it with Sunny Deol. I haven’t thought about it yet, but yes, I’ll see, and maybe I will think about it again.     What do you want people to remember most about Dharmendra and his legacy?     He was a genuinely good human being who knew how to love. I used to ask him what defines a good actor and he always said that a good actor is first a good person. If today’s actors understand just this one thing, they’ll automatically become better actors. If you’re a good person, you can play a bad man, you can play a worthless man, you can play an average man. His goodness, and the way he showered love on people, these two qualities were truly special about him. And that is exactly how he will always be remembered. He is a legend and legends never die, they remain immortal.     Also Read: Exclusive: When Esha Deol Called Dharmendra and Hema Malini Excellent Babysitters。然而，普京的优先事项很可能会与东道国的优先事项发生冲突，克莱蒙特麦肯纳学院政府学教授裴敏欣为彭博社撰文指出。

这位教授认为，普京现在别无选择，只能从短期考虑，即乌克兰的失败将对他的统治构成生存威胁。因此，他完全有理由迫使中国为他的战争提供更多实质性的军事支持。

裴敏欣指出：”值得注意的是，俄罗斯决定在中国高官最近对法国进行国事访问之际宣布进行挑衅性核演习。这让北京感到尴尬，而北京正面临着来自欧洲的越来越大的压力，迫使其利用自己的影响力结束战争。普京此举发出了一个并不含蓄的信息：中国在战争问题上保持中立已不再可行。”

这位教授认为，中国可能不会介意给予普京更多支持，但中国在短期内面临严重制约，需要争取时间。

B | 自2023年3月与普京的上一次会晤以来，北京的处境恶化，这主要是由于中国经济下滑以及与西方的关系持续紧张。

裴敏欣称：”这两个因素是相互关联的。尽管在技术和贸易方面出现了一些初步分离，但与普京干预之前的俄罗斯经济相比，中国经济与美国和欧洲的交织程度仍然要深得多。2023年，中国对美国的商品出口总额为4270亿美元，对欧盟的商品出口总额约为5500亿美元。”

在他看来，中国政府在关键领域实现自给自足的战略可能会减少对西方市场的过度依赖，但至少在未来几年，中国将不得不依靠出口来克服经济困难。

“由于中国无法断绝与西方的经济联系，北京必须谨慎对待向普京提供多少援助及何种援助。美国显然了解中国的脆弱性。”这位教授说。

“两位领导人可能会在会议上宣布一系列新的协议，以防止普京空手而归（最重要的是他们能否就”西伯利亚电力2号”天然气管道签署协议）。但北京不太可能向普京提供那种越过西方红线的军事支持。”这位教授认为。

裴敏欣称：”未来两三年，中俄之间的主要紧张关系仍将存在，如果普京再次在战场上失利，这种紧张关系可能会变得更加难以控制。
