‘Toofaan Mein Pyaar Kahaan’ (1966) was produced by S H Munshi and was directed by Phani Majumdar. The cast included Ashok Kumar and Nalini Jaywant in the lead roles supported by Jayshree Gadkar, Lata Sinha, Sailej Prakash (debutant), Madhumati, Achala Sachdev, Tarun Bose, Tiwari, Sundar, Bhagwan Sinha etc.
In this film, I was impressed with the performance of Lata Sinha which reminded me that I had also seen her in many other films without knowing her identity. From her name, I guessed that Lata Sinha was from either Bihar or Jharkhand. I checked the cast of many Bhojpuri films but did not find her name. However, I found that she was the lead actress in the first Maithili film, ‘Kanyadaan’ (1965). She had also acted in a supporting role in the first Magadhi (Magahi) film, ‘Bhaiyya’ (1961). The common factors in both the regional films were the producer, S H Munshi and the director, Phani Majumdar, the same combination for the film under discussion.
From her filmography, I find that Lata Sinha has acted in as many as 40 Hindi films during 1955-79. With her long presence in Hindi film industry, it is surprising that very little information about her early life is available online. It is also surprising that she suddenly vanished from Hindi film industry. The only information I could get from Mike Burnum’s website, ‘Cinemajadoo’ is that Lata Sinha was the daughter of yester-year actress, Shobha Devi who had acted in supporting role in ‘Daawat’ (1943) and in lead role in ‘Jeena Sikho’ (1946) among others.
It may be observed from the filmography that Lata Sinha started her filmy career as a child artist, Baby Lata in ‘Barsaat Ki Ek Raat’ (1948), ‘Shikhar’ (1955), ‘Riyasat’ (1955) and ‘Nau Do Gyaarah’ (1957). Lata Sinha got her first adult and the lead role in ‘Ham Bhi Insaan Hain’ (1959). However, after this film, she was seen in only supporting roles such as ‘Chaudhvin Ka Chaand’ (1960), ‘Bees Saal Baad’ (1962), ‘Taj Mahal’ (1963), ‘Benazir’ (1964), ‘Bhoot Bangla’ (1965). ‘Main Wohi Hoon’ (1966), ‘Shikaar’ (1968), ‘Heer Raanjha’ (1970) ‘Raja Jaani’ (1972), ‘Insaaniyat’ (1974), ‘Apnaapan’ (1977) etc.
Coming back to the film under discussion, I have already given the film’s story in detail while discussing the song, le pee zaraa uar pee. However, just to refresh, I give below the gist of the story which is as under:
Shamu (Ashok Kumar) is a truck driver of Mahajan (Tiwari), a smuggler who indulges in business of smuggled good across the border with Sikkim. Although Shamu feels bad about serving Mahajan for his smuggling activities, he has to do this for taking care of Rami (Achala Sachdev), a Tibetan and her daughter as promised by him at the time of the death of her husband.
In a different village, Shanta (Nalini Jaywant) is being readied to depart for her marriage with Raimohan (Tarun Bose) against her wish. She runs away from the house. Shamu gives her shelter in his den in an adjoining room with a condition that she should find a different place to stay as his den is full of bad people. Shanta finds Shamu a kind-hearted person. Next day, Mahajan visits the den, Shanta introduces herself as the wife of Shamu for her own safety.
Pulma (Jayshree Gadkar), who runs a tea shop and is in love with Shamu, does not believe that Shanta is Shamu’s wife. By now Shamu has fallen in love with Shanta and has decided to propose her for the marriage. One day, Shamu sees a letter written by Raimohan to Shanta about their impending marriage. He assumes that Shanta is in love with Raimohan, and he has no right to ask for hand in marriage. Next morning, before Shanta could explain to Shamu about the notoriety of Raimohan, she finds that Shamu has left the place with Pulma.
Raimohan with the help of Mahajan conspire to kidnap Shanta to sell her across the border at a high price. Shanta now takes shelter in Rami’s house from where she is kidnapped by Raimohan and Mahajan. When Shamu comes to know about Shanta’s kidnapping, he takes out his truck with Pulma and follows the jeep in which Shanta is being taken. While driving on a jig jag hill road, the jeep roles down from road to valley killing Shanta, Raimohan and Mahajan. While consoling Shamu, Pulma reiterates her love for him.
In ‘Toofaan Mein Pyaar Kahaan’ (1966), Lata Sinha was almost like a second lead actress along with the debutant Sailej Prakash. Three out of eight songs were picturised on Lata Sinha, the same number as that for the lead actress, Nalini Jaywant. The songs were written by Prem Dhawan which were set to music by Chitragupt. Four songs have been covered on the Blog.
I present the 5th song, ‘goree itnaa bataa tera lagtaa hai kyaa’ rendered by Lata Mangeshkar and Usha Mangeshkar who sings for Nalini Jaywant and Lata Sinha respectively. Video clip has partial song while audio clip has the full song.
I am not able to give the exact context of the song as the film’s VCD is found to be heavily edited and the song suddenly appears on the screen. From the lyrics coupled with the preceding scenes in the film, my guess is that now it has been known to Shanta’s (Nalini Jaywant) friends that she is in love with Shamu (Ashok Kumar). So, while bathing in the river, her friend, Billu (Lata Sinha) teases her to let her know as to who is the person visiting her in her dream in the midnight. But after the end of the song, it is an anti-climax for Shanta as Shamu has already read the letter written by Raimohan (Tarun Bose) to Shanta about their impending marriage. So, instead of proposing marriage with Shanta, Shamu is in search of Raimohan to unite him with Shanta, without knowing his antecedent.
Enjoy this sweet song of the friendly banter between Lata Sinha and Nalini Jaywant on the screen.

hamen laage hai sharam
poochho hamse naa aisee waisee baat ko
Pyaar kiya hai hamne jisey

Today’s song is a nice composition from the movie ‘Daku Mangal Singh-1966’. Lyrics for this song were sent by Prakashchandra long back. Listeni8ng to songs like this (that I had not heard before), I am beginning to realise that apart from the songs that we grw up listening to (that we fondly remember), there many be thousands of songs that we could never listen to. Seing that most of these songs belonged to obscure movies, it is unlikely that music lovers will ever listen to these forgotten songs.

Remembering Nalini Jayawant (18/02/1926 – 20/12/2010) on the occasion of her 100th birth anniversary today, February 18, 2026. She was one of the top actress of the golden period of 1950s of Hindi films. Unfortunately, like Suraiya, Nalini Jaywant also took early retirement from films when her films of the 1960s failed one after another. Once voted as a most photogenic face of Hindi films, she spent her post-retirement life as a recluse to such an extent that her death on December 20, 2010, got noticed only after a couple of days.

Today, December 25, 2025, is the 10th Remembrance Day of Sadhana, the fashion icon of Hindi cinema in the 1960s. She was also called the ‘mystery girl’ because she acted in three mystery genre of films one after another. In her short filmy career of about 15 years, she had a high success ratio in terms of hit films. She worked with top directors like Bimal Roy, Raj Khosla, Yash Chopra, Hrishikesh Mukherjee and H S Rawail. Her co-stars included Dev Anand, Shammi Kapoor, Rajendra Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Raj Kumar, Sunil Dutt, Rajesh Khanna and Dharmendra. Sadhana came and conquered the Hindi film industry in the 1960s and by the end of 1970s, she virtually vanished from the film industry.
