We have discussed a couple of songs from “Teesri Kasam” (1966) recently. In the course of that discussion, I have learnt the story of the novel called “Maare Gaye Gulfaam” which was picturised as “Teesri Kasam”. The movie has faithfully reproduced the flavour of the novel. The movie failed to find favour with the majority of the moviegoers during its first release, but the re-releases have seen the movie doing better.

“Teesri Kasam” (1966) was a movie which was adapted from Phanishwar Nath “Renu”‘s Hindi novel called “Maare Gaye Gulfaam”. I have neither seen the movie nor read the novel, but Santosh Ojha, a contributor to this blog has given a nice summary of this novel in his blog . Reading this summary, I realised what a moving tale this novel and this movie was. Now I can understand why Shailendra was so heartbroken on finding his dream project failing at the box office. The fact that Indian movie audience were not mature enough and sensitive enough to appreciate a movie like this was quite unfortunate indeed.
