“Parinay” (1974) was an Art film. In other words it was a low budget film whose makers were so broke that they could not hire big names. So they made do with out of job artists. The actors of this movie were all newcomers, viz Shabana Azmi, Romesh Sharma, Asha Sachdev, Dinesh Thakur Preeti Ganguly, T.P.Jain etc. I remember watching a still of Shabana Azmi from this movie. It was obvious that the movie makers were too broke to even afford makeup men. Shabana Azmi looked ugly and I wondered how a lady with that looks can ever be chosen to work in Hindi movies, and that too as the leading lady.

“Doraaha” (1971) was produced by Ram Dayal and directed by Firoz Chinoy. This movie had an adult theme and that made the movie a “controversial” movie. In other words, the movie audience, media as well as the censors were not mature enough to handle movies of this genre. This movie, as well as other movies of the same genre, viz. “Dastak”, “Chetna” etc suffered from wrong publicity which attracted wrong kind of movie goers to these movies. The movies suffered at the box office. Come to thingk of it, Indian movie audience, media as well as the censors have not yet matured even today, some four decades later, to be able to deal with these kind of movies.

“Ganga Jamuna” (1961) is a movie that I tend to cinfuse with “Ram Aur Shyam”(1967) all the time. Both movies had Dilip Kumar in them, and both movies had the same musical team, and that is the reason for my confusion.
