“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.

This movie “Brahmachari” reminds me so much of “Mr. India”, or rather, “Mr. India” should remind me of “Brahmachari” considering that “Brahmachari” was released two decades earlier.

To this date, I have not been able to understand how Shashi Kapoor survived for so long as a hero. I have noticed that most of his sucessful movies succeeded because he figured in multi starrers, where other stars carried the movie on their shoulders. And on the few occasions where Shashi Kapoor was the solo hero, the movie succeeded because of the music rather than because of Shashi Kapoor’s great histrionics. Do not tell me that “chor Machaaye shor”, for instance owes its success to Shashi Kapoor, and not to its music.
