“Naache Mayuri”(1986)” was a Hindi remake of the Telugu “Mayuri”(1984). These movies were based on the real life story of Sudha Chandran. Sudha Chandran, a dancing enthusiast, had lost one leg in an accident. But she braved all odds and used artifical limb (prosthetic ‘Jaipur foot’) and continued to pursue her first love viz. dancing and became a leading dancer. She was invited to perform in India as well as abroad. Her fame spread and she got offers to work in movies. Telugu movie “Mayuri” (1984) was made on her own life. This movie became a big success at the box office. It was subsequently dubbed into Malayalam and Telugu with the same title. Later on, this movie was remade into Hindi as “Naache Mayuri” (1986).

I was not aware of the fact that “Fakeera” (1976) was made by the same team that made “Chor Machaaye Chor” (1974). I always regarded “Chor Machaaye Shor” (1974) as an A grade movie and “Fakeera” (1976) as a B grade one. The fact that Mumtaz was the leading lady in “CMS” and a Shababa Azmi, then known only for her arts movie roles had much to do with my opinions about the two movies.
