As I have written in my last post, this film Angoor (1982) is based on William Shakespeare’s Comedy Of Errors. Sanjeev Kumar and Deven Verma play the two pairs of twins who get separated in childhood. Both the characters played by Sanjeev Kumar and Deven Verma are named Ashok and Bahadur respectively, where the Bahadurs are servants of the Ashoks. One Ashok with one Bahadur live in one town, while the other pair lives in some other. A big confusion arises, when one pair comes to the town where the other pair lives. To add to the confusion, one pair is married, to Moushumi Chatterjee and Aruna Irani respectively, while the other is still unmarried. Deepti Naval plays the sister-in-law of the married Ashok. Now, if you are pulling your hair out of confusion, I won’t blame you! But that is the stuff, of which Comedy Of Errors is made of!

This is the first song from the film Angoor (1982) to appear on this blog. Although this film enjoys quite a popularity, the songs hardly became popular among the masses. The musical score has remained an insider’s tip for Pancham and Gulzar fans.

This is the last song from the film Ajanabee. This is one of the lesser known songs from this movie. From its sound it hardly seems to be from Pancham except at times during the interludes. A common situation in Indian films for songs is where the lovers reach a village or a tribal camp on one of their rendezvous. Once there, they are persuaded by the locals to participate in their dance and song item. Sometimes the pair starts imagining themselves in the situation of the leading pair singing and dancing.

‘Inkaar’ from 1977 is one of my more favorite cops-and-robbers films. Almost the entire picture is a study in understatement. A film that flows pretty close to the levels of realism, and all the characters seem very natural and very normal in the surroundings they are placed in. Most of the action and most of the histrionics is played very normally. There is not much in the film that can be singled out as something overplayed. A difficult feat to pull off, given that it is a crime and detection story.
