As I have written in my last post, this film Angoor (1982) is based on William Shakespeare’s Comedy Of Errors. Sanjeev Kumar and Deven Verma play the two pairs of twins who get separated in childhood. Both the characters played by Sanjeev Kumar and Deven Verma are named Ashok and Bahadur respectively, where the Bahadurs are servants of the Ashoks. One Ashok with one Bahadur live in one town, while the other pair lives in some other. A big confusion arises, when one pair comes to the town where the other pair lives. To add to the confusion, one pair is married, to Moushumi Chatterjee and Aruna Irani respectively, while the other is still unmarried. Deepti Naval plays the sister-in-law of the married Ashok. Now, if you are pulling your hair out of confusion, I won’t blame you! But that is the stuff, of which Comedy Of Errors is made of!

“Teri Baahon Mein” (1984) was a Kalptaru Films production. It was produced by Pramod Poddar and directed by Umesh Mehra. The movie had Mohanish Behl, Ayesha Shroff, Parikshit Sahni, Dev Kumar, Prem Chopra, Navin Nischol, Kalpana Iyer, Mac Mohan, with Parveen Babi and Mithun Chakraborty in special appearances. I recall that this movie was touted to be inspired from “The Blue Lagoon”. When most small time Hindi movie makers wanted to get “inspired” from western movies then they reminded me of the Hindi saying-“Kahaan Raja Bhoj Kahaan Gangu Teli”.
