Atul ji,
OOMAR QAID(1961) was super pictures movie produced and directed by Aspi Irani with a lilting,melodious music from Iqbal Qureshi.
It was a typical-get revenge-undo the wrong done type Sk.Mukhtar film.
Manoharlal(Sh.Mukhtar) is sentenced to life for murdering his jewellery business partner Bansidhar,though he souts hoarse about his innocence.
His wife(Sulochana) gives away her only son to her dear friend Poornima(Khurshid) to avoid any blot on his life about father.
In the jail,Manoharlal finds Kamroo(Babu Raje) who is an eye witness to the murder and can prove Manoharlal innocent.He tells him the name of the murderer too.Manoharlal escapes from jail.
Meanwhile his son (Sudhir) has become a Police Inspector(what else ? ).By chance he meets his own mother.His friend Madhuri(Nazima) is liked by her.The job of hunting the escaped criminal Manoharlal is given to his son,while M.Lal is after the murderer.
In all such movies I dont think people used to go to see the story,they wanted to see Shaikh Mukhtar and his fighting and Dialogues and in every movie he satisfied them.there was a strange attraction in this seemingly ‘not so good’ face.in his heydays he worked with the best looking Heroines too,like e.g Begum Para.
He had his own share of fans.

Shaikh Mukhtar was the man’s man. Audiences like to see the bad guys get their comeuppance.
Is that Shatrughan Sinha at point of 1:36?
You have found so many K.Barot songs, this one is nice too 🙂
Regarding a song abt Ranchi …you may look in one of Bhojpuri gana.
I am sure you will find one 🙂
