“Bandish” (1980) was a movie starring Rajesh Khanna and Hema Malini. This was a Rajesh Khanna movie in his second phase as an actor after he had lost his superstardom. He tried very hard to regain his superstardom, but it was too late for him by that time. Typically his stellar performance in these movies would meet wit lukewarm response from movie goers. It was in such stark contrast to the response of public in his superstardom days when his appearance in the credits of a movie was all that was needed to bring in the crowds.

Like any young pre teen kid growing up in late 1960s and early 1970s, I was learning new things every day. I would listen to songs blaring from loudspeakers and from radios. It was one fine evening in 1960s that I heard a song coming out from the radio. I had never heard this song before, and I loved the song instantly and unconditionally, as kids tend to do.

This is that kind of a song that I heard in my younger days without being aware of its details, and then forgot all about it.

I know about many older movies, but frankly I had never heard of this movie called “Sitaaraa” (1980). I became aware of this movie and its songs only because of the lyrics of this song sent by Prakashchandra.

Ke aajaa teri yaad aayi

When a normal human being misses his/her beloved, you expect them to bear it privately. But a Hindi movie hero/heroine missing his/her beloved decides to make a public spectacle of themselves. They quickly burst into a missing you song whose lyrics could be something like “Main yahaan hoon tu hai kahaan” or “Ab to aa jaa” etc. They go all over the town singing the song. One can expect them to be doing that in India, but imagine doing them in the streets of Venice, Italy and the local population not even batting their eyelids !

“Prem Parbat” (1973) is a movie starring Hema Malini,Rehana sultaan, Nana Palsikar, Aghaa, Sanjana, Satish Kaul etc. The movie sank without a trace. And the video of this movie is apparently no longer available. So it is not possible to tell for sure what kind of a movie it was.

“Manchali” (1971) is a movie that is indelibly etched in my mind mainly because of its title song O manchali kahan chali(Manchali)(1973). This song appeared to me to be playing in Binaca geetlmala all the time, though this song did not figure in the final. This movie also had the wonderful song Gham ka fasaana ban gaya achcha(Manchali)(1973) in it. The naughty song Tan man dhan sab hai tera(Manchali)(1973) is also in this movie.
