“1942 A Love Story” (1993) was a movie which was produced by Vidu Vinod Chopra and directed by Vidu Vinod Chopra. The movie, despite its publicity, was no great shakes.
But the music of this movie was quite a revelation. This movie was released a few months after the death of R D Burman. When music lovers heard the music of this movie, they sat up and took notice. Some reviwers even went as far as to state that this was the music ever composed by R D Burman ! I am not one to indulge in such odious comparisons, but I was one of those music lovers who found the music of the movie quite divine. When I went on to watch the movie, I found the movie quite a let down. The movie was supposed to be a period movie on 1942 but all the characters dressed, looked and behaved like people of 1990s.

“Babu Moshai, zindagi badi honi chaahiye lambi nahi”
The exuberant, prophetic words enunciated by a character – terminally ill, fully aware of his fate, and yet living the life to its brim. Anand (1971), the character that captured the imagination of multiple generations of viewers, has gone down in the film history as the ultimate optimist and a very endearing idealist. The wonder that this film is, simply never ceases for me. The extrovert, loud mouthed, always hungry for a conversation, and food – in his filmi demise, he taught a valuable lesson for the living.
