“Amaanat” was a movie starring Manoj Kumar and Sadhana. I find that the date of release of this movie is shown as 1977. Considering that Sadhana had retired from movies in late 1960s, I think that “Amaanat” was a movie picturised in 1960s and accordingly I thought that it was a movie of 1967 rather than 1977.That is the only explanation for the kind of dresses worn by Sadhana and Manoj Kumar in this movie which are incongruous with the dressing styles of 1970s. This movie has an iconic song that goes “matlab nikal gaya hai to pahchaante .”. I am fully convinced that I have been listening to this song from 1960s itself.

Koyi jab tumhaara hriday tod de
Posted on: March 1, 2009
This song stands out among the songs of 1970 because of its “shudddh” Hindi words. Words like “Hriday” for “dil” really won my “hriday” over when I first heard this song.
