Then there were some other actors who too were making their marks as comedy actors. I S Johar was one such actor.

Vintage Kishore Kumar. And I thank Shekhar Vaishnav ji, who is connected to our blog from Sydney. Thanks for the reminder for this song.
The fun songs by Kishore Da are a class apart by themselves. There is nothing at all in this world to compare them to. And during the 50s and 60s, when Kishore Da also acted in many films, there is a number of very wonderful songs that he has sung and also performed on the screen. An accomplished actor that he was, he has done the best interpretations of his own singing, and has performed his own songs, as no other actor can even consider it possible. Each one of the pictures that he acted in, contain fantastic gems that are superb both from the singing as well as from the performance aspects.

“Deewaar” (1975) must be regarded as one of the most influential movies of its time. Unlike most Hindi movies, the music of this movie only had a marginal role to play in the success of the movie. In fact no song of this movie figured in the Binaca geetmala finals.

“Begunaah” (1957) was a movie whose story was plagiarised from an American movie namely “Knock on Wood” (1954). Plagiarisation from foreign movies have been going on from olden days and filmakers indulge in it with impunity even today. It would seem that “Begunaah” (1957) was the only movie which has even been penalised for this act. When Paramount Pictures, the makers of “Knock on Wood” (1954) came to know about the fact that “Begunaah” (1957) was copied from their movie, they look legal action in a Bombay court. Much to the astonishment of Indian movie fraternity and legal circles, the Indian court ordered the destruction of all copies of “Begunaah” (1957). The movie, which was already released, had to be withdrawn from movie halls and the prints were destroyed. all this happened quite swiftly. The court gave its decision within six weeks of filint the case and the prints were destroyed in another three months time.

“Phir wahi Raat” (1980) was produced by N N Sippy and directed by Danny. This suspense movie had Rajesh Khanna, Kim, Danny, Suresh Oeroi, Aruna Irani, Lalita Pawar, Jagdeep, A K Hangal, Shashikala, Mukri, Shubha Khote etc in it. This movie has many suspects and the least suspected person turns out to be the culprit in the last reel, as befits a classic whodunit. 🙂

Chandi Sona (1977), as the name points out at, is a film about treasure hunt on an island. Most probably a desi version of a Hollywood film. Sanjay Khan in his independent ventures favoured R D Burman. Even in this film it is Pancham, who gives the music.

How could I forget the fact that Sahir Ludhianvi’s birthday falls on the International Women’s day ! This fact was mentioned by Raja while discussing Sahir Ludhianvi song (Aurat ne janam diya mardon ko (Saadhana)) this day two years ago.
