It was more than a couple of months ago that I had received the lyrics of a song which I loved. That song was one that I had never heard before.

I have heard of the movie called “Kunwaara Baap” (1974) but I was not aware of a movie called “Chhota Baap”. It turns out that a movie of this title was released in 1977. This movie, despite being a recent movie by the standards of this blog has ended up joining the ranks of obsure movies. This movie was a B grade movie. It was directed by Shantilal Soni. The movie had Romesh Sharma, Bindiya Goswami, Alankar Joshi, Asit Sen, Paintal, Dhumal, Dina Pathak etc in it. With this kind of starcast, it should come as no surprise that few people wanted to watch this movie or even wanted to have anything to do with it.
