Aao Pyaar Karen (1964) is a romantic comedy from the house of S Mukherjee, and Filmalya Productions, directed by RK Nayyar. The normal rich-girl-poor-boy-love-story, in this case, is presented as a comedy, and not a sob story. The male lead actor, as with many S Mukherjee productions, is Joy Mukherjee, paired with Saira Banu. At the time of making this movie, both the actors were comparatively fresh in the industry, having made their debut in 1960 (Love In Simla) and 1961 (Junglee). The other key players in the star cast are Rajendranath, Madhavi, Marilyn, Shyam Chatterjee, Jayant Shah etc.

In show business, it is not enough to just silently go about your job behind the scene. One needs to be in the limelight and one needs to keep lobbying with influential people who can help advance one’s career. People who are good in their jobs as well as good in Public relations forge ahead whereas others, who may be equally good if not so, may find themselves underappreciated.

This selection is from the 1964 Gemini production Zindagi. This film had a very good star line up, as in Rajendra Kumar, Rajkumar, Vijayantimala, Prithviraj Kapoor, Lila Chitnis, Mehmood, Jayant, Kanhaiyalal, Jeevan, Dhoomal, Helen, Mumtaz Begum, Heeralal, and Master Shahid. Ramanand Sagar, the director of this film, has been active in the Hindi cinema as a story and dialogue writer since the early 1950s. He directed his first film in 1953 (Mehmaan), but it was in 1960 that he really established himself as a director with the film Ghunghat. This was followed by Zindagi (1964) and Aarzoo (1965). He then established Sagar Arts International, his own production house an went on to produce and direct such famous hits like Aankhen (1968), Geet (1970), Lalkar (1972), Charas (1976), Prem Bandhan (1979) etc. Beyond all the film world creations, Ramanand Sagar is more famous for the TV serial Ramayan, which he created in 1987, whose success established him as a household name all over India.
