“Chhoti Bahu” (1971) is a movie that had Rajesh Khanna and Sharmila Tagore in it. I have not seen this movie so I have no idea about the story of this movie, though the title indicated that the movie may have something to do with ladies making sacrifices for the family honour etc.

People these days lament about the degradation in the quality of Hindi movie music today. And as example of exemplary music, the cite the eras of 1950s to 1970s. But I tell you, when I was growing up in that era,then I felt exactly the same way- that 1970s had seen a degradation in the quality of songs vis a vis songs of late 1960s.

There are few actors in Hindi cinema of yesteryear who evoke as much passion in film-lovers as Shammi Kapoor. He came into cinema at a time when pathos ruled and emotional tragedies, a la Devdas, were the order of the day. Although he made an effort to fit in, he was thankfully (for all of us) a miserable failure in his efforts.

Shikari (1963) was a B-movie, starring Ajit and Ragini. I had the pleasure of watching it a few months ago and I must say I thoroughly enjoyed it. It is a typical jungle adventure story with the necessary ingredients of tigers, gorillas and such. This may not be to everybody’s taste but I do enjoy such movies, even at this age. 😉

Aankhon aankhon mein baat hone do
Posted on: August 13, 2010
In early 1970s, Hindi movie songs were becoming daring and we had many songs in those days where the lyrics were far too direct and to the point, instead of beating about the bush.

Ham tum gum sum raat milan ki

This is one of those songs that I liked a lot in my younger days without having any inkling about the details of the song, and after some time, such songs would be forgotten by one and all for all time to come.

It is not uncommon for me to enjoy songs whose details are not known to me and most other people. These well known songs are often from movies that few people know about.

Aankhon mein masti sharaab ki

I had never heard this song before. And I would have remained blissfully unaware of this song but for a long pending farmaish for this song.

Rajesh Khanna made his debut in “Aakhri Khat” (1966). This was a black and white movie, and this movie could well be described as a classic. This must be one of the few movies that could be called a movie with an original and different plot. At least I hope that this movie is an original and not inspired by some other movie.

Aaj ki raat piyaa dil na todo
Posted on: January 23, 2010
I have posted several songs from “Baazi” (1951) in this blog in the past. This song being posted now is one that is very well known to many, but I was not aware of this song. When I listened to this song (just now) for the first time, I wondered how I had never heard this song before.
