Hullo Atuldom
10th October is the birthday of an actress whose work I simply love to see ever since I saw her in the 1980 released “Khoobsoorat” and I shall never tire of telling this. I know the readers of this blog are aware of my partiality towards a few actresses of the period of 1970s & 1980s- Hema Malini, Rekha, Zeenat Aman, Parveen Babi, Jaya Bhadhuri- if I need to name them. I try not to miss writing a post for the birthdays of these ladies.
So, here I am, wishing Rekha (who was born Bhanurekha) a very Happy Birthday. Hope she continues to be beautiful, charming, and continues to make the (odd) appearances in front of audiences; at least on reality shows on television if not in films.

Today’s song is from the film Naag Panchami-1953.
The 5th Tithi or the 5th day of Saawan (Shrawan) is celebrated as NAAG PANCHAMI. On this day, Naag/Cobras or simply any snake in general is worshipped. This is because Snakes are considered as Farmer’s friends. Snakes eat mice, which destroy stored grains and standing crops too. Mice also spread many diseases in villages.
Worshipping Snakes is a symbolic way to acknowledge their importance to the Farmers and spread the message of environmental balance. On this day, young girls in the villages tie Jhoola(swing) on trees and sing songs.

‘Mehndi’ (1983) was produced by Dinesh Kumar and was directed by Asit Sen. The cast included Vinod Mehra, Ranjeeta, Raj Babbar, Tamanna, Raj Bothara, Madan Puri, Usha Kiran, Seema Deo, Meena T, Mohan Choti, Birbal etc. Bindiya Goswami and Sh akti Kapoor made their special appearances in the film. This was Asit Sen’s last Hindi film as a director.
There are confusion galore about two Asit Sen’s works in Hindi films on the internet. Suffice to say here that Asit Sen, the director of the film under discussion did not act in any Hindi film. He directed his first Hindi film ‘Mamta’ (1966) while Asit Sen, the comedian/character actor has also directed only two Hindi films, ‘Parivaar’ (1956) and ‘Apraadh Kaun’ (1957). Hence, there is a clear demarcation of their work as director in terms of the timeframe. Unfortunately, Asit Sen, the director is hardly remembered today who had directed some Hindi classic films such as ‘Mamta’ (1966), ‘Anokhi Raat’ (1968), ‘Khaamoshi’ (1969), ‘Safar’ (1970), ‘Annadaata’ (1972) and some Bengali films. Even if he is remembered, he is often mistaken with Asit Sen, the comedian. For example, an article in ‘The Hindu’ which appeared on April 02, 2010, under ‘Blast From The Past’, calls Asit Sen, the director of ‘Mamta’ (1966) as ‘a disciple of Bimal Roy’. Surely the writer has confused with Asit Sen, the comedian who had worked with Bimal Roy as his assistant director for his films of 1950s.

There have been two Hindi movies with the title “Ustaad Pedro” that were released in 1951 and 1971 respectively.
These two movies had the same title because they were produced by the same man viz Sheikh Mukhtar and he had played the title role in both the movies. One can easily guess that this story line was close to his heart so he decided to repeat the same story line with the very same movie title. Seeing that there was a 20 year gap between the two movies, the actors in the 1971 necessarily had to be different.
“Ustaad Pedro”(1971) was produced by Sheikh Mukhtar and directed by Chaand for Time Life Films, Bombay. The movie had Sheikh Mukhtar, Meena Roy, Jeewan, Padma Khannaa, Asha Nadkarni, Kundan, Raka, Shyam Kumar, Helen, Junior Mehmood, Master Dingu, Sadiq, Hameed, Kaku, Fazlu, Bihari, B A Baghi, Anil Dutt (new face) etc in it. One can notice that the lead actress in this movie was someone called Meena Roy. Few people have any idea who she was. In contrast, the lead actress of “Ustaad Pedro”(1951) was a famous actress of her time viz Begam Para.

‘Manzilein Aur Bhee Hain’ (1974) was produced by Johny Bakshi and was directed by Mahesh Bhatt who also wrote the story. The dialogues were written by the veteran theatre personality, Satyadev Dube. The cast included Kabir Bedi and Prema Narayan in the lead roles supported by Gulshan Arora, Purnima, Sudhir, Mac Mohan, Mukesh Bhatt, Shah Durrani, Kirti Kumar, Viju Khote, Ranvir Raj, Uma Dutt etc. Both Johny Bakshi and Mahesh Bhatt made their debuts as producer and director, respectively. Both had known each other while working for Raj Khosla as Assistant Director/Production Controller.
The film was completed in 1972 but ran into problems with Censor Board for about 15 months. In an interview, Mahesh Bhatt revealed that for Censor Board, the film’s two fugitives’ polyandrous relationship with a woman who is their partner in crime amounted to undermining the institution of marriage. Finally, the film got the Censor Certificate on August 13, 1974, as an ‘Adult’ film with cuts. The film had a limited theatrical released on September 27, 1974. The VCD of the film I watched, has a 2016 Censor Certificate with major cuts to make it fit for public viewing under parental guidance. The theme of the film is that there are alternative paths to becoming a criminal who lives under the constant fear of death.
