1969 was the debut year for Bindu and Vinod Khanna was just one year into the industry (having his debut in the ‘Man Ka Meet’ (1968)). In personal life, Bindu was already a married lady by this time. As far as I can review her filmography, the film Nateeja (1969) is apparently the only film in which she has played the role of a leading lady. Having played small roles in Anpadh (1962), as the college going daughter of Mala Sinha, and a supporting role in Aurat (1967), 1969 was the year that that she arrived on the film scene with five releases to her credit, viz. Doli, Ittefaaq, Do Raaste, Aayaa Saawan Jhoom Ke and Nateeja. With a combination of both positive and negative roles, she made her mark this year, and embarked on a career that would make her famous as Mona Darling (Zanzeer, 1971). She played the oomph girl in many films (Kati Patang (1971), Hawas (1974), Imtihaan (1974) etc.), and she also did serious supporting roles in Abhimaan (1973), Chaitaali (1975), Arjun Pandit (1976) etc.

“Rishte Naate” (1965) is a movie produced by Amar Jyoti movies(Madras). It was directed by K S Gopalkrishnan. The star cast of the movie included names like Raj kumar, Nutan, Jamuna, Nazeer Hussain, Ameeta, Jeewan, David Abraham, Kanhaiyyalal, Dhumal, Deven Verma, Madhvi, Sahasranaamam, Baby Shakila. The star cast and the name of the movie tells me that it was a movie with a melodramatic theme and little wonder that I have not heard of this movie.
