“Sangharsh” was a movie as “recent” as 1968 when Rajesh Khanna had already taken over Bollywood as a superstar. So I am surprised that oldtimers like Dilip Kumar and Vyjyanti Mala were still playing lead roles in 1968.

I have posted quite a few “chitthi” songs from 1970,1980 and 1990s. It is not that such songs were not there in the earlier decades. Not at all. There were such “Chitthi” songs in 1960s too.

I was not aware much about this movie “Saathi” (1968). I am surprised to see that this movie is not that well known to me despite this movie boasting of some very nice songs.

I have talked about Rafi singing brilliant songs for Shammi Kapoor. This led to many imitators, who would make Shammi Kapoor movies by signing up Shammi Kapoor clones. Thus we had actors like Joy Mukherjee, Vishwajeet etc who had reasonably successful careeres playing Shammi Kapoor type roles.

“Saraswati Chandra” is not a movie that too many people remember now. This lead actors in this movie were Nutan and Manish (who ?) and it was a Black and white movie in an era when colour movies had become the vogue.

“Raja aur rank” (1968 ) is a movie that the present generation of movie watchers are not much familiar with, and that is for good reasons too. The movie was eminently forgettable with a flimsy story line. The only well known actor in this movie was Sanjeev Kumar, and he too was a newcomer to Bollywood.

“Brahmachari” had so many wonderful songs, including a few immortal song. Even those songs that are not all that immortal can still be regarded as memorable, even though these songs were composed as time pass songs.
