May 5th 1978 was a most awaited day for an Amitabh Bachchan fan. That day his latest movie Trishul got released. Zanjeer, Deewar, Sholay, Adalat and Khoon Pasina had been released in the preceding years and had proved to be super-duper hits. Amitabh Bachchan’s distinctive “positioning” as the “angry young man” in the rather cluttered world of Bollywood heroes was firmly established. That the above-mentioned movies were interspersed with blockbusters like Kabhi Kabhie (romantic hero) and Amar Akbar Anthony (comedian) only helped to intensify the hero’s aura among his fans.

Of late, I have started catching up on movies of the 1970s. I may or may not have seen the movie earlier but even if I have seen it earlier, I have no proper recollection of the story.

I am very honored indeed to have been asked by Atul to write about this song from the film “Gumnaam.” It is song number 2800 on this blog and I think he has chosen well in representing such a big number (although I am amazed that it’s not been put up here earlier!).

When I was growing up as a pre teen kid in late 1960s and early 1970s, I heard many songs that left indelible imprints on my psyche. There are a few such songs which I never heard again for several decades. Thanks to this blog, which makes me look for songs and which familiarises me with songs sent as farmaishes by my readers, I have been rediscovering many of these forgotten gems.

I have often tried to compile a list of male and female actors who acted together in movies before they married each other. One can think of names like Dev Anand- Kalpana Kartik, Shammi Kapoor- Geeta Bali, Randhir Kapoor-Babita, Rishi Kapoor-Neetu Singh, Amitabh Bachchan-Jaya Bhaduri, Dharmendra-Hema Malini etc.
