In Hindi movies, the hero is often a small kid in the first reel who then transforms into the grown up hero in the blink of an eye. The kid who plays the role of the young hero shares the same hair style, dress and mannerism that the grown up hero is known for. Thus master Mayur (playing Amitabh Bachchan’s childhood role) would sport the same hairstyle and dress that Amitabh Bachchan was known for, and he would in fact even sing love song for the small girl who would later grow up to become the heroine. 🙂

I have heard of the movie called “Kunwaara Baap” (1974) but I was not aware of a movie called “Chhota Baap”. It turns out that a movie of this title was released in 1977. This movie, despite being a recent movie by the standards of this blog has ended up joining the ranks of obsure movies. This movie was a B grade movie. It was directed by Shantilal Soni. The movie had Romesh Sharma, Bindiya Goswami, Alankar Joshi, Asit Sen, Paintal, Dhumal, Dina Pathak etc in it. With this kind of starcast, it should come as no surprise that few people wanted to watch this movie or even wanted to have anything to do with it.
