“Half Ticket” was a laugh riot featuring Kishore Kumar and Pran. The movie had a heroine too, but I am not able to recall her name, that is how Kishore and Pran centric this movie was. Pran would for ever be after Kishore Kumar much like cartoon characters Tom and Jerry ( or replace their names by any other set of cartoon characters).

Here is a funny and feel good song from a Amitabh Bachchan movie called “Toofan” (1989). Few people remember this movie now, but I for one thought that the movie was fairly good by the standards of Amitabh Bachchan movies of those days. I in fact watched this movie more than once.

Hum matwaale naujawan

I have read a lot about this song called “Hum matwaale naujawaan”. I was not much aware of this song. In fact, there is another song with similar lyrics sung by Rafi and Mukesh from a 1961 movie which itself is called “Hum matwaale naujawan”. But this song “hum matwaale naujawaan” is from an earlier movie called “Shararat” and is sung by Kishore Kumar.
