I would love to listen to these songs, only to forget all about them with passage of time. I have been re discovering those songs again now a days. There are several such songs, as I keep mentioning in my posts.

“Talaash” (1969) had awesome music and a nice story line. In another time and era, this movie would have gone on to become a musical blockbuster. But unfortunately this movie had to compete with “Aradhana” and it was a knock out contest. “Talaash” was knocked out and “Aradhana” won.

Late 1960s was a time of glut for quality songs, so much so that these songs jostled for space and many great songs failed to catch the ears of the audience.

Umbrella is typically used in Bollywood movies to protect actors from rain, and sometimes sun. Hero and heroine sharing an umbrella and getting drenched makes for some of the most romantic scenes in Bollywood movies.

“Aadmi aur Insaan” (1969) was a movie with Ravi’s music. This information is enough to conclude that the movie must be full of nice songs. And that is how it turns out to be.

“Aadmi aur insaan” (1969) had Ravi’s music. When I looked at the list of songs that I have posted from this movie, I found that I had posted just one song, and that too a “lesser” known one. Knowing Ravi, he creates a bagful of hit songs in every movie where he is the music director, many of which have gone on to become iconic songs.

Shammi Kapoor’s era lasted for the entire 1960s and “Prince” could well be called his last successful movie. His two subsequent movies as a hero (“Pagla Kahin Ka” and “Jawaan Mohabbat” did not do well).
