There are quite a few good to very good actors who were eclipsed when the Amitabh Bachchan wave hit Bollywood in the 70s. Some tried doing a few solo movies before doing multi star cast movies with AB as the main character. So much so that they didn’t mind being overshadowed by the Bachchan. Who can forget Amar Akbar Anthony (1977)? Manmohan Desai made a movie with the story being about 3 brothers. But people thought that Bachchan’s Anthony was the prominent character. And inspite of being a diehard Bachchan fan I love to see the scenes of AMAR in the movie. Specially the scene in the jail where he questions Robert’s men about who shot the police commissioner (played by Kamal Kapoor). There are other parts in the movie featuring Vinod Khanna (who played Amar) that stand out.

Last year on 2nd October I had sent a mail to Atul with the following contents (I am reproducing it partly-I had sent the mail after I saw that there was a song dedicated to Mahatma Gandhi.)
“There is one more birthday today, another Gujarati gem (though it is debatable if she is as bright as Mahatma Gandhi.)

Hullo to all Atulites.
So what is it today? Lata Mangeshkar’s birthday. What was it yesterday? Yash Chopra’s birthday. What was it day before yesterday? Dev Anand’s birthday. So what do we get if we put a search for the above combination? A movie called “Josheela” which was released in 1973.

In 1978, BR Chopra made this remarkable film ‘Pati, Patni Aur Who’. I call it remarkable because it is a rare occasion that the theme of marital infidelity is being dealt as a comedy. A happily married executive, wife of his liking through a love marriage, one child, and a comfortable household and life. What more can a man desire. Ah but yes, it is these ‘more’ desires of the man that are the thorn in the side.
