KEECHAKVADH (1959) as the name of the film suggests, was a mythological film. It was produced in Marathi and Hindi versions by Balasaheb (P K) Pathak under the banner of Manik Studios and directed by Yeshwant Pethkar. The star cast included Baburao Pendharkar (Keechak), Sumati Gupte (Draupadi), Shobhna Samarth (Sudeshna), Vishwas Kunte, Vimla Kumari, Helen etc. I had seen the Marathi version of the film on the internet mainly to get to know the song situation of the iconic song ‘dhund madhumati’. In that process, I had to see the full film as this particular song was almost at the end of the film before Keechak is killed by Bheem. I had no regret in watching the full film as the crisp screen-play made the already known story a still interesting one to watch.

We expect songs that are either bhajans or semi classical songs.

Nirupa Roy, who in the mind of most moviegoers of my generation was immortalised as the long suffering mother of the hero (typically Amitabh Bachchan), was born on 4th january.
