‘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.

‘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.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #

The song in this post is from the movie ‘Watan Se Door-1968’. I have never watched this movie and I guess that it is not available on any internet platform too. But I had presented a song from this movie earlier here on the blog. And how I remember this song and how I get to know which movie it was is a long story which I have mentioned in my post here on the blog with the song ‘kaisaa jaadoo daalaa maa banarasee roomaal waalaa’. This song was posted on the blog on 19.07.2015. Before that our Sudhir jee had presented two songs from this movie here on the blog as per following details.

1) mehfil mein naheen to dil mein sahee – 10.11.2011
2) pyaare pyaare tere andaaz ke qurbaan gaye – 19.11.2011

When I presented the first song from this movie I didn’t have the copy of Geet Kosh Vol-IV (1961-1970) with me and therefore I could not give the details of movie in that post. However our in-house encylopeadia Shree Arunkumar jee had given the story of this movie while commenting on the first post of Sudhir jee.

Today’s song is from an imaginary stunt/costume film Sair E Paristan-1958.

When this film came in theatres, I had first thought that the title was Sair E Pakistan, but then I realised that it was Paristan and not Pakistan ! I wonder even today as to why such types of Stunt/ Costume films had stories or rather cookes up silly stories had almost always a Muslim background ? Maybe because such stories were suitable for a background of Middle East countries only and no one would question their credibility. It is also possible to make the stories look like those from the Arabian Night stories. Anyway, the audience of such films never thought of all these things. All that they wanted was fighting, a few ‘Dil Tod’ dances, flashy dresses, big palaces and more daredevil stunts !
