‘Giraftaar’ (1985) was produced by S Ramanathan and was directed by Prayag Raaj. The cast included Kamal Hasan, Poonam Dhillon, Madhavi, Ranjeet, Shakti Kapoor, Kadar Khan, Nirupa Roy, Aruna Irani, Rabia Amin, Om Shivpuri, Satyen Kappu, Pinchoo Kapoor, Jeevan, Jagdish Raj, Sharat Saxena, Shyam Kumar etc. Amitabh Bachchan, Rajnikanth, and Kulbhushan Kharbanda made their guest appearances. Probably, this is the only film in which Amitabh Bachchan, Rajnikanth and Kamal Hasan worked together. However, there are no scenes of Rajnikanth and Kamal Hasan acting together.

There were some Hindi films which either flopped or just made it to be the average performers at the box office after they had theatrical release. But over the years, they have attained the status of cult classics. The films in my minds are, Chetan Anand’s ‘Neecha Nagar’ (1946) for pioneering the parallel cinema, Raj Kapoor’s ‘Jaagte Raho’ (1956) for its social commentary, Guru Dutt’s ‘Kaagaz Ke Phool’ (1959) for its cinematic style, Dev Anand’s ‘Guide’ (1965) for its progressive themes, Raj Kapoor’s ‘Mera Naam Joker’ (1970) for its philosophical depth and ‘Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron’ (1983) for raising a couple of serious issues facing the country in a satirical way. The list is not exhaustive. I also feel that I should add ‘Shakti’ (1982) in this list for the powerful performances of Dilip Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan as father and son, respectively who are in the opposite side of the law.

There are movies that are well made with good story line. I, who considered myself as a moviegoer with highbrow taste ( 🙂 ) liked such movies. For example, I liked movies like Sholay, Deewaar, Don etc. Then there are movies with silly story lines that low brow audiences liked but I did not.

Some of these silly story line movies went on to become big hits whereas some movies flopped.

“Mahaan” (1983) was a film that released in my teenage years & released in the summer holidays of 1983. I have seen it then & a number of times after that. It was produced by Satyanarayana & A. Suryanarayana; directed by S. Ramanathan. Anjaan wrote the songs which were tuned by R.D. Burman. Waheeda Rehman, Amitabh Bachchan, Amjad Khan, Zeenat Aman, Parveen Babi, Shakti Kapoor, Ashok Kumar, Mac Mohan, Urmila Bhatt, Mukri, Nandita Thakur, Aruna Irani, Sujit Kumar etc. etc. & Kadar Khan were the actors/ stars in the film.

This post by Avinashji was a post full of his memories of his childhood & how he got into the habit of seeing films.

Similarly, any song or film from the 1970s, 80s & even 90s sends me down memory-lane. And if it is 11th of October – birthday of my all-time favourite actor who is called the BigB or the Shahenshah of Bollywood etc then a trip of nostalgia is natural.

This is the song, part of which is shot near to the Thajiwas glacier, near Sonamarg, Kashmir. This is the route going to Laddakh, travelling east of Srinagar.   Further on this road falls Kargil area, about which many people have told me is much too beautiful to miss.  Laddakh is a sight to behold too.  I have missed both Laddakh and Kargil, but hope to visit in future, in-sha-Allah.

Top three actors of the golden era of Hindi cinema (from mid 1940s to late 1960s) were Dilip-Dev-Raj. They were nearly of the same age though their debut years were “Jwar Bhata” (Dilip Kumar) in 1944, “Hum Ek Hain” which came in 1946 (Dev Anand) and “Valmiki” also in 1946 which had Raj Kapoor in his first adult role but it was a tiny role. The three of them carved their own path and were the dominant stars of the Golden Era. Raj Kapoor went on to become a much-acclaimed actor-director earning him the title of ‘The greatest Showman’, Dev Anand also became an actor-director and was usually associated with slick and stylish city-based films and became popular for his trendy fashion sense as well, and Dilip Kumar came to be hailed as the greatest actor and set a high bar for future generations to emulate.

19 July is a special day for the blog. It was on this day in 2008 that the blog went online with its first post, namely Mile na phool to kaanton se dosti kar li . That was the only post of the day, befitting the name of the blog “Atul Song A Day”. Discussing one song daily was the original idea and the blog stuck to it for 40 days. after that, the blog began to cover more than one song daily. It became “Atul Many Songs A Day”. On some occasions, as many as 12 and even 13 songs were covered in one day. Some exasperated subscribers of the blog complained that they were song lovers, but not that hardcore song lovers that they could handle one song notification in their e mail almost every hour of the day. 🙂

Hullo Atuldom

2015 was the first time I wrote a post for this celebrity’s birthday. I will not say that I am a huge fan of his but I definitely like is work. He is one of the many actors who are in the film industry due to the legendary Pransaab i.e. this celebrity is inspired by or may even be a fan of Pransaab and has enacted a variety of characters on-screen much like the legend Pransaab.
