‘Kasauti’ (1974) was produced and directed by Arbind Sen under the banner of Lalit Kala Mandir. The cast included Hema Malini and Amitabh Bachchan in lead roles supported by Pran, Sonia Sahni, Vijay Sharma, Ramesh Deo, Sulcohana, Bipin Gupta, Satyen Kappu, Sapru, Murad, Mohan Choti, Bharat Bhushan, Viju Khote, Janakidas, Mac Mohan etc. This was Amitabh Bachchan’s first film with Hema Malini in a leading role.

Producer-director Aravind Sen picked up Amitabh Bachchan after watching his role in ‘Saat Hindustani’ (1969) and Reshma Aur Shera’ (1971). During the making of the film, Amitabh Bachchan’s two films, ‘Bansi Birju’ (1972) and ‘Ek Nazar’ (1972) were released which flopped on the box office. The distributor who financed ‘Kasauti’ (1974), got panicky and withheld further release of funds for shooting. Aravind Sen was still confident about the success of his next release film, ‘Bandhe Haathh’ (1972) which also flopped. During this period, Aravind Sen suffered a heart attack which led to further delay in completing the film. Fortunately for him, Amitabh Bachchan’s ‘Zanjeer’ (1973) and ‘Namak Haraam’ (1973) became super hit films and the shooting of the film was resumed. The film was released on August 9, 1974.

#The Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #
————————————————————————
(Celebrating Saawan-2025-11)
——————————-

Nowadays I am presenting saawan songs from Hindi films that were so far missing from the blog. In this process I am coming across surprises on a daily basis. I am discovering some great compositions.

Everybody has his/her own preferences in music. As for me, I mostly enjoy those creations that I had not listened to earlier.

While looking for songs thst I had never heard before, I got to listen to these songs and I noted them down to be used for my write-ups. That is how I got to listen to these songs, by specifically searching for them, something that most normal music lovers are not likely to do.

Today’s song is from a dubbed film Ek Tha Raja-1951.

I consider myself a mixture of south and marathi culture. From childhood, I grew up in an atmosphere which was truly cosmopolitan – in Hyderabad state. Exposure to south customs and following a Marathi lifestyle. My paternal grandparents stayed with us. My father, uncles and aunts addressed my grandmother as ‘Amma’, a typical way of calling mother in southern style. However, I called my mother as “Aai”, like a Marathi kid !

To be a multilingual person is good. Knowing more languages-not just knowing, but speaking many languages has its own advantages. I had the built in advantage of having been born in a Multilingual state of Hyderabad. Starting with Urdu, I soon learnt Marathi(Mother tongue), Hyderabadi and Pure Hindi, Telugu and Kannada. Because of my father, I learnt Sanskrit, but could not master it, though I am well conversant in it. After coming to Bombay,I learnt Gujarati so well that I can read Gujarati papers, books and E Mails etc.
