“Qaidi no 911” (1959) was a “B grade” movie in the sense that it was an action thriller and it had Sheikh Mukhtar as action hero. When I say it was a B grade movie, I mean no disrespect.

Here is a funny and feel good song from a Amitabh Bachchan movie called “Toofan” (1989). Few people remember this movie now, but I for one thought that the movie was fairly good by the standards of Amitabh Bachchan movies of those days. I in fact watched this movie more than once.

As a small kid, I had heard about three monkeys of Gandhiji that symbolised- “bura mat suno, bura mat dekho, bura mat kaho.” So when I actually heard a song with the same lyrics, I naturally liked this song. It became one of my favourite songs of that era.
