“Baalika Badhu” (Child bride) as the name suggests was a movie made on the theme of child marriage. In this movie, Sachin and Rajni Sharma play the children who get married to each other. Sachin has some idea of what marriage is all about but his bride (played by a then thirteen year old Rajni Sharma) is mentally still a child.

“Bairaag” (1976) is one of the last movies where Dilip Kumar is seen as a hero. And as happened with heroes well past the conventionally accepted age of playing Bollywood heroes, he is paired up with Leena Chandawarkar here, who was nearly half the age of Dilip Saab at that time.

This song was a popular song during its time. When I listened to it, I thought that R D Burman was the music director. It was only much later that I realised that the music director was not R D Burman , but a newcomer called Bappi Lahiri. Yes, Bappi Lahiri was creating great impression in the minds of music lovers. He had created some nice music in “Zakhmee” (1975), his debut music and then in “Chalte Chalte” (1976).

Shashi Kapoor, after the success of “Chor Machaaye Shor” got lots of offers and he signed them all. He had decided to make hay while the sun shone. Being picky and choosy was not for him.
