“Boot Polish” (1953) was a moving tale of orphan kids who struggle to come up in their lives. It is a kind of movie that I personally cannot bear to watch, and I have not watched this movie.

The storyline of “Phagun” (1958) was clearly inspired from “Naagin” (1954). In “Naagin”(1954), the heroine finds the music of “been” irrestible, whereas in “Phaagun”, hero’s flute has a similar effect on the heroine. In “Naagin”, we had Pradeep Kumar and Vyjyanti Mala in lead roles, whereas in “Phagun”, we had Bharat Bhushan and Madhubala playing the same roles.

I sincerely believe that parents should take care of their kids and they should not deprive them of their basic requirements. And what did a kid like me want in 1972 as his basic requirement ? I badly wanted to see “Seeta Aur Geeta” (1972). The songs of this movie had such a pied piper like effect that everyone was attracted towards the movie halls screening this movie. My elders too agreed to take me to watch this movie and I was so happy with the prospect of being able to watch the movie and to have the best moment of my life till then.

“Love In Shimla” (1960) has a song that is basically a recitation of the Urdu alphabet that goes “Alif Zabar aa alif zer ae alif pesh o” which is sort of like ” A se anaar aa se aam” of Hindi or “A for apple B for Bat…” in English. For one who has studied Urdu, writing down the lyrics of this song would be a cakewalk. I am not familiar with the Urdu alphabet and as a result, the lyrics of this song is Greek (rather Urdu) to me. I had planned to post this song in the past, but I could not do so mostly because I was unable to follow the lyrics.
