“Gautam Govinda” (1979) was a Subhash Ghai movie. If one is not aware of this fact, one may mistake this movie for a Manmohan Desai movie dealing with separated at childhood brothers. The only thing different from a Manmohan Desai movie and this movie is that instead of Amitabh Bachchan, this movie has Shatrughan Sinha playing the law breaking brother. Shashi Kapoor is there in the movie, as usual playing a police inspector.

Few people today remember this movie called “Ahsaas” (1979). This movie was a quicky movie produced by G P Sippy in the interim period between his two big movies viz. “Sholay” (1975) and “Shaan”(1980). “Ahsaas” (1979) was produced with newcomers with names that no one had heard of. Who were the lead pair in this movie ? Frankly no one seems to recall including me. It was one of those few movies that I had watched first day first show ! And what a disaster of a movie it was. Now others who are into watching first day first show (FDFS), like for instance Santosh Ojha, watch blockbusters like “Trishul”. On the other hand, it is my misfortune to watch dud movies like “Ahsaas” (1979) and “Shalimaar” (1978) in FDFS. Bahut naainsaafi hai.

Charlie Chaplin’s movie was a silent movie even though the era of talkies has begun. Hindi movies cannot be silent by any stretch of imagination. And this movie had some lovely songs in it,including Naseeruddin Shah (playing Charlie Chaplin’s role) singing a romantic song(Sunayna sunayna..aaj in nazaaron ko tum dekho) for his lady love.

Experienced music lovers can often identify the music director by listening to the music of a song. Most music directors have their “signature” tunes that differentiate them from others. So most of the time one can identify a tune as being a tune of Naushad, O P Nayyar, Madan Mohan, S D Burman, Roshan, Shankar Jaikishan, Laxmikant Pyarelal etc.
