Today, December 31, 2025, is the 7th Remembrance Day of Writer-Actor Kader Khan who created a niche for himself in the midst of Hindi film’s first super star writer duo, Salim Javed. In fact, he went one step ahead of them as he was also a prolific character actor of various shades.
The life profile of Kader Khan ( 22/10/1937 – 31/12/2018) is an inspiring one. It is one more of ‘rags to riches’ stories of artists in Hindi film industries. He was born in Kabul but due to poverty, his family shifted to Mumbai and stayed in Kamathipura area in Mumbai. Soon, he lost his mother when he was an infant. His step mother ensured that Kader Khan completes his education. In the midst of extreme poverty, he completed his matriculation and joined Ismail Yusuf College in science stream. After passing Civil Engineering, he got a job as a lecturer in Saboo Siddik College of Engineering on a monthly salary of Rs.300/-. He worked as a lecturer for about seven years up to 1975.

Hullo Atuldom
Back to writing a post after a full month, last one was on 6th November to pay tribute to Sanjeev Kumar. In this period I have been getting gentle nudges by our Guruji, enquiring about the lull in my writing. He even suggested that I strike a deal with Sadanandji, about pacing our landmark posts (at that point Sadanandji was four short of his century). I assured Arunkumarji that by the time I get back to writing Sadanandji would have hit his century and gone far ahead; he is sitting on 1014 currently.
I have been a little pre-occupied attending a few weddings, accompanied with learning to shake a leg for the dances to execute at the pre-wedding sangeet and other wedding related celebrations. A few of my nephews got married in this wedding season.

‘Basera’ (1981) was produced by Ramesh Behl under his banner, Rose Movies and was directed by Ramesh Talwar. The cast included Shashi Kapoor, Rakhee, Rekha, Poonam Dhillon, Raj Kiran, Iftekhar, A K Hangal, Sudha Chopra etc. The film was based on a Marathi novel written by Leela Phansalkar. In fact, Ramesh Talwar has directed IPTA play, Tanhaai’ (1971) based on this novel. It was decided to convert his IPTA play into the film, ‘Basera’ (1981).
The film is about two sisters who are wedded to the same man by a twist of fate. In an interview published in ‘Filmfare’, April 22, 2016, Ramesh Talwar had revealed that for the roles of two sisters, he had already finalised Rakhee. He told Rakhee that if she accepted the role of the younger sister, he would take Nutan for the role of elder sister. However, Rakhee preferred the elder sister’s role and suggested Rekha’s name for the younger sister’s role. After the separation of Rakhee and Gulzar, this was the first film with Rakhee in which Gulzar got associated as the screenplay, dialogues and song writer. Interestingly, Rekha, apart from her role as the second wife of Shashi Kapoor is also in the role of Raj Kiran’s mother, who in reality, is elder to her by 5 years.

In the Indian traditional societal setting, the men are regarded as the bread winner for the family while the women are assigned as homemakers who stay at home and manage the kitchen, housekeeping, taking care of the children etc. In urban setting, some women have dual roles. They are not only the homemakers, but they are also the working women giving the financial support to the family. Men are not expected to be homemakers. These gender-based responsibilities have been majorly followed in India since long. The role reversal in responsibilities between husband and wife was unthinkable even in the last century and it is still not fully appreciated.
There has been some cases of role reversal taking place especially in metropolitan and urban India. I had known one such case in my office as early as in 1965 when the wife was working in my office and her husband was employed in a private firm. But the situation in the family forced the wife to think of resigning from her service to look after her infant when the alternative arrangements did not work out. Her husband volunteered to resign from his private job on a realistic consideration as the wife was getting higher salary than him. At that time, her husband was the talking point in my office as it was thought to be a revolutionary step by him.
