In that movie, Amjad Khan, then typedcast as Gabbar Singh following his role in “Sholay” (1975) played a baddie who turns over a new leaf thanks to a young blind girl (whose father he has murdered). this movie moved the audience a lot. The movie went on to become a reasonable hit. Vinod Mehra and Bindiya Goswami were the hero and heroine of this movie, but Amjad Khan was the real star of the movie.

“Bedard Zamaanaa Kyaa Jaane” (1959) was a B grade movie starring Ashok Kumar, Nirupa Roy,Sudesh Kumar, Jabeen Jaleel etc. This movie is quite significant from music point of view. It was with this movie that Kalyanji Veerji Shah made his debut as an independent music director. Till then, he was assisting to other senior music directors viz Hemant Kumar etc. After another movie (Madaari), Kalyanji was joined by his younger brother Anandji and they formed the by now legendary musical partnership known as Kalyanji Anandji.

“Pyaase Panchhi” (1960) is a movie starring Mehmood and Ameeta. Most probably this movie met the same fate as most movies that had Mehmood as the hero, viz the movie failed at the box office.

Hindi movies have several songs of the genre where the hero has a broken heart aften being betrayed in love. This genre of songs often tend to become repetitive after a while as far as their lyrics are concerned. The phrase “Toota huaa dil” viz “broken heart” often figures mandatorily in these songs.If one has heard one broken heart song, one may have heard them all- that is what often appears to music lovers.
