I was neither aware of this movie called “Pati Patni” (1966) nor of this song from this movie. Now I have come to know that this was a movie starring Nanda, Sanjeev Kumar, Mehmood, Om Prakash etc.

“Love in Tokyo”(1966) is the most Shammi Kapoorish of all movies not involving the great man himself. “Love in Tokyo” (1966) has Joy Mukherji instead and he does a great job here as a Shammi Kapoor clone.

“Dil Diyaa Dard Liyaa” (1966) was a movie that was just before my time. I had got an opportunity to watch this movie for free a few years later but I passed over that opportunity because the movie,the actors as well as the storyline of this movie were not quite the cup of tea of kids my age. “what is this ? These movies cannot think of anything other than pyaar. There are more to life than pyaar, such as maar dhaad (fights) etc.”- The leader among us pre-teens opined and the rest of us readily agreed and walked off after some time.

This song starts with a car moving in a road, with four people sitting in it. Good, so it is a car song, I think.
But for the rest of the song, the car remains parked. The four of them have come for a picnic. We see Shashikala, holding a picnic basket in one hand, singing this song, to no one is particular. Others have assembled there for picnic, but she seems to have gone there to sing this song. 😀 I see that her colleagues include Dharmendra, but he keeps a low profile throughout this song.

“Dil Ne Phir Yaad Kiyaa” (1966) is a movie that is full of sensational songs but these songs were criminally wasted thanks to the boring and painful plot. Even leaving the brain behind (recommended for watching Hindi movies) does not work. One can enjoy these songs only when the characters on whom the song is picturised enjoy it, seeing that it is a romantic song. But the storyline ensures that Nutan is in no position to enjoy Dharmendra’s advances. She is not what Dharmendra thinks she is, rather she is a look alike and wife of Dharmendra’s best friend-Rehman) to boot. To make matters worse, Dharmendra wooing her has Rehman’s tacit approval too.
