In this article, I have taken up for discussion, ‘Tere Mere Sapne’ (1996) which was the first Hindi film produced by Amitabh Bachchan Corporation Limited (ABCL) after it commenced operations sometime in 1994. Before I discuss the film, it is necessary to dwell upon as to why Amitabh Bachchan felt setting up a film production and distribution company, how the Company fared and how the Company went into near bankruptcy. I think, ABCL is one of the appropriate case studies for the students of business management to understand what went wrong with ABCL and how Amitabh Bachchan turned the corner from near bankruptcy to the star of the millennium.

In my last article, I had made a passing reference to the film, ‘Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar’ (1992) in the context of the prelude music of one of the songs of the film which is the inspiration for the prelude music of the song that was discussed in the aforesaid article. This film suddenly reminded me of its director, Mansoor Khan who had successfully directed ‘Qayaamat Se Qayaamat Tak’ (1988) and some more. From his filmography, he directed his last film, ‘Josh’ (2000) and was the co-producer of ‘Jaane Tu Yaa Jaane Naa’ (2008). It is a rare instance for a film director who has successfully directed four films in a row and vanished from the film industry. It was an interesting quest for me to know as to why he shunned the film industry.

After the box office success of the Tamil film, ‘Thevar Magan’ (1992), written and produced by Kamal Hasan with Sivaji Ganesan, Kamal Hasan, Revathi, Gautami and Nasser in the main roles, Kamal Hasan decided its remake in Hindi with himself in the lead role and Dilip Kumar in Sivaji Ganesan’s role. It was his intense desire to work with Dilip Kumar. However, Dilip Kumar declined to work in the film as he had almost retired from the films. So, Kamal Hasan kept the Hindi remake of the film in the backburner until he sold the film’s rights to his friend, Priyadarshan for its remake in Hindi as ‘Viraasat’ (1997).(Source: Hindustan Times, May 29, 2022).

There are some prominent Hindi film actors whose names are mainly associated with ‘middle of the road’ and ‘off-beat’ cinemas though they have also worked in mainstream Hindi films. The names that comes to my mind are Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri, Girish Karnad, Shabana Azmi, Smita Patil, Dipti Naval etc. Almost all of them made their Hindi film debut under the direction of Shyam Benegal. I was not aware that Rajeshwari Sachdev was also one of such actors until recently while checking her filmography. She has worked on stage, television and films. She is also a singer and a dancer.

In the 1970s, Basu Chatterjee was one of those Hindi film directors who made films on the stories which a majority of the filmi audience could relate to their own every day life. Starting with ‘Saara Aakaash’ (1969), he made the classic films such as ‘Rajanigandha’ (1974), ‘Chhoti Si Baat’ (1975), ‘Chitchor’ (1976), ‘Khatta Meetha’ (1977), ‘Swaami’ (1977), ‘Baaton Baaton Mein’ (1979), ‘Shaukeen’ (1982) etc. But in 1990s and thereafter, Basu Chatterjee seems to have lost his magic touch to his ‘middle of the road’ cinemas.

In Hindi film industry, there are a large number of artists and technicians whose hard work contributes to the making of films. But a vast majority of them remain unknown to public at large. For example, if I want to know as to who played a particular musical instrument in prelude, interlude, or postlude music of a song which I liked, there is no way to know the names of the musicians in the film as they were not credited in the films’ credit rolls until the recent times.

We have read about Emperor Akbar having nine officials of extra-ordinary skills and calibres in various fields in his court who were called ‘navratnas’ (nine gems). Music director, Rahul Dev Burman also had ‘navratnas’ in his ‘musical court’. In fact, some of his fans put the numbers ‘ratnas’ close to hundred. Nonetheless, if I have to confine the numbers to ‘navratnas’ in his musical team having specialisation in various fields of music, they were Marutirao Keer (Tabla, Percussion), Basu Chakravarty (Cello), Manohari Singh (Clarinet, Flute), Bhanu Gupta (Harmonica, Rhythm Guitar), Bhupinder Singh (Guitar), Homi Mullan (Duggi, Secondary Percussions), Devichand Chauhan (Dholak, Tabla), Amritrao Katkar (Tabla, Secondary Percussions), and Ranjit Gazmer (Maadal). They were the core team of musicians who exclusively worked for S D Burman and R D Burman. It was only when they had spare time from Burman’s assignments, some of them did work for other music directors.

Hullo Atuldom
The blog has songs from “Shri 420” (1955), “Shrimati 420” (1956) & “Ustaad 420” (1969) – from which “Shrimati 420” is one short from being YYIIPPEEEED. Hindi films have a few more ‘420’ (char sau bees). There is a “Khiladi 420” which came in 2000 & “Chachi 420” which released in 1997. These are the 420/s that I know of, there may be one or two more films with ‘420’ in their title.

In this article, I have taken up for discussion an obscure film which had taken a long time to complete. The film had a censor certificate dated April 5, 1991, but it appears that the film did not get a theatrical release. Later, the film was released in the VCD format. I am talking about the film, ‘Lakhpati’ (1991). The film is available for viewing on one of the video sharing platforms.
