Taking advantage of my good fortune, I have posted discussion on one song just now, and here is another, which I need to discuss before the gift horse decides to bolt away. 🙂

Almost all big names (with a few exceptions) presented Vishesh jaimala programmes those days.

The usual love stories constituted the bulk of storyline in mainstream Hindi movies of the past. The fact that history and mythology provided such rich sources of stories that could be used was not given much thought by mainstream movie makers. It was left to movie makers of smaller resources (makers of B grade movies) to make movies on such topics that were regarded as risky and unviable by mainstream movie makers.
