Hullo Atuldom

Heard a song this morning after almost 45-46 years.

It was from “Amar Shakti”(1978) which was produced by A.K.Nadiadwala & directed by Harmesh Malhotra. It had Sulakshana Pandit, Shashi Kapoor, Shatrughan Sinha leading the cast with Pradeep Kumar, Jeevan, Om Shivpuri, Ranjeet, Roopesh Kumar, Indrani Mukherjee, Alka, Murad, Birbal, B.M. Vyas etc. playing supporting characters.

Manjula who was from South India; active in Malayalam, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada films, played a banjaran character in the film. She was seen in a few Hindi films of the late 1970s.

The songs of “Amar Shakti” were written by Anand Bakshi & composed by Laxmikant – Pyarelal. Asha Bhonsle, Sulakshana Pandit, Chandrani Mukherjee, with Kishore Kumar & Mohd. Rafi being the male singers.

The story of the film was of the typical “lost and found” story, where there is also a royal family involved. Since it was the story of royals, inheritance etc there has to be a scheming Diwan & a sulking brother of the King- Jeevan & Pradeep Kumar played these characters. There is a Maharaj (Murad) who becomes ill on hearing of the assassination of his Yuvraj & his wife. The Maharaj is also poisoned to death, but somehow the young Rajkumars (sons of the Yuvraj I think) escape or are saved. They come back as grownups to regain their lost titles etc. Along the way, there are the usual twists & turns, where the brothers are unaware of the relation between them (to start with). Then one brother is in love with the traitor’s (who is the current Maharaj) daughter & is also the Senapati of the land. This naturally puts the brothers on opposite sides of the law, before they discover their identities & unite before the HAPPY ENDING. Very typical!!!!

Today’s song happens after the brothers have found each other. They are celebrating in the ‘kabeela’ which had given shelter to one of the brothers & the palace nanny (Indrani Mukherjee). The princess (Sulakshana Pandit) also joins the dance routine. The lady in the red costume is Manjula.

With this song we also remember the super sweet, cute, handsome, Shashi kapoor on what would have been his 86th birthday. He had worked in 4 films as child star (from 1948-53) before making his debut as an adult in ‘Dharmputra’ that released in 1961. He was about 23 then, but already married to Jennifer Kendall. It was ‘Jab Jab Phool Khile’ (1965) opposite Nanda that helped him find a place among popular actors of the 1970s & much of the 1980s.

He had acted in around 160 films before he took retirement from films sometime in late 1990s. He had acted in 12 English & 148 Hindi films – solo hero films were 61 & 53 were in multi-starrers. He was seen playing supporting characters roles in 21 films (has played father to Govinda, I remember). “Ghar Bazar” which released in 1999 was Shashi Kapoor’s last film, his was a special appearance in the film which released 10 years after it was completed.

Here is the song that shows the handsome Shashi Kapoor who was a good actor but an average dancer. Kudos to the choreographer for giving the heroes horses in the middle of the song and making things easy for them.

In the hierarchy of Hindi film actors, apart from lead and supporting actors, there is one category of actors who falls between supporting actors and extras. One may call them ‘small role actors’. I found it difficult to identify many actors in this category especially when some of them would be uncredited in the films. One such actor is Ram Sethi whom I had seen in some films of 1970s and 80s. It is only when I joined this Blog in 2011, I came to know that Pyarelal of ‘Muqaddar Ka Sikandar’ (1978) was Ram Sethi. I have also seen him with Amitabh Bachchan in some more films like ‘Laawaaris’ (1981), ‘Yaaraana” (1981), ‘Kaalia’ (1981), ‘Namak Halaal’ (1982) and ‘Jaadugar’ (1989).

The filmy career of Ram Sethi (Born 15/11/1938) was like a roller coaster ride. Keen on career in Hindi films, he came to Mumbai for the first time in 1962 and again in 1964 but failed in his efforts to get any work in the films on both the occasions. But his third visit to Mumbai turn lucky for him when Prakash Mehra saw one of his Hindi plays. Impressed hy his performance, Prakash Mehra made him as his assistant when the shooting of the film, ‘Ek Kunwaari Ek Kunwaara (1973) started in 1971. Ram Sethi was a clapper boy, an assistant director and also an actor in a small role in this film. He assisted Prakash Mehra in script writing, direction apart from doing small roles. Over a period of time, Ram Sethi became a close confidant of Prakash Mehra assisting him in every aspect of film making.

It was a smooth ride for Ram Sethi till about early 90s by which time he had already worked in about 50 films as an actor. However, sometimes after Mumbai blast in 1993, he was out of work for a couple of years. He also faced some family problems because of which he had to stay in Delhi for about 2 years. When he came back to Mumbai in 2000, things were changed in film industry so much that he felt uneasy to work. He went into depression. When he recovered, Ram Sethi and Prakash Mehra worked on a script for a new film with Amitabh Bachchan. But the project did not go beyond the script writing. Probably, because of some health issue with Prakash Mehra, the project could not be followed up. After the death of Prakash Mehra, Ram Sethi lost interest in acting and started advisory services in the film making. He did get a few small roles in Ashutosh Gowariker’s ‘Khelen Hum Jee Jaan Se’ (2010) and ‘PK’ (2014). (Note: Ram Sethi’s life sketch is mainly based on his interview which appeared on http://www.rediff.com on September 12, 2012).

I personally feel that Ram Sethi’s unstinted devotion and loyalty toward his mentor, Prakash Mehra was at the cost of furthering his filmy career as a director which he was very keen to and his desired to start his own film production company. He was also keen to do some serious roles but he did not get any opportunity while he was with Prakash Mehra. Finally, he got his first serious role, though small, in ‘Khelen Hum Jee Jaan Se’ (2010).

‘Ghunghroo’ (1983) was the only film which Ram Sethi directed under the banner of Prakash Mehra Productions with four main actors who worked in ‘Namak Halal’ (1982), viz Amitabh Bachchan, Smita Patil, Shashi Kapoor and Waheeda Rahman. However, Amitabh Bachchan met with an accident while shooting for ‘Coolie’ (1983). So, he was replaced by Suresh Oberoi. The other cast included Padmini Kapila, Ranjeet, Kunal Goswami (debutant), Komal Mahuvakar (debutant), Yunus Pervez, Sudhir etc.

The film is about the relationship between a diwan of a royal family and a courtesan whose relationship is frown upon by the Rani Maa, the head of the royal family. The Dewan, who is also the adopted son of Rani Maa is forced to marry a girl from the royal family. When Rani Maa comes to know about a love child born to the courtesan from her relationship with Diwan, Rani Maa forces the courtesan to go in exile with her child. The history is repeated when Rani Maa’s younger son loves the daughter of the courtesan. In the end, after a lot of duals between Rani Maa and Diwan and with with her younger son, the courtesan and her daughter are honourably adopted in the royal family. The story in details is as under:

Vikram Singh (Shashi Kapoor), the adopted son of Rani Maa (Waheeda Rahman) and the Diwan of the Royal family has pledged his allegiance to Rani Maa after the death of the King. So, he would not do anything against the wishes of Rani Maa. Vikram falls in love with a courtesan, Kesarbai (Smita Patil) when she is invited in the royal palace to give her dance performance on the occasion of the young prince’s birthday. They clandestinely meet very often and promises Kesarbai to get her out of the stigma of a courtesan by marrying her.

Virat (Ranjit), the brother of Rani Maa who has the ambition of holding power in the royal family to match with that of Vikram, plans to sabotage Vikram’s marriage with Kesarbai. He reveals Rani Maa the intention of Vikram to marry Kesarbai. Rani Maa forces Vikram to marry London-returned Princess Priya (Padmini Kapila). In the engagement ceremony, Kesarbai is invited. She arrives at the royal palace fully dressed up for the occasion thinking that it is her engagement ceremony with Vikram. However, she is shocked to learn that Vikram is getting engaged to someone else and she has to give a dance performance for the occasion.

Vikram is not happy with his married life with Princess Priya who is also not happy that her husband heart is with Kesarbai. Kesarbai. gives birth to a baby girl. Suraj (Suresh Oberoi) the admirer of Kesarbai is released from the jail. He comes to know that Kesarbai has left her usual place. In the meanwhile, Vikram on a visit to a Women’s Shelter set up by the royal family, finds here Kesarbai with an infant girl who is none other than Vikram and Kesarbai’s love child. Vikram assures Kesarbai that he would decide to find place to stay in a house. Again, Virat becomes a spoilsport and tells Rani Maa of Vikram’s plan. Rani Maa orders Kesarbai to get out of Women’s Shelter. Ultimately, Suraj gives her shelter and her daughter in his house treating them as his family members. In the meanwhile, Princess Priya drowned herself in alcohol for her doomed marriage. Virat plans to kill Vikram by loosening his car’s door. However, in the car accident, it is Princess Priya who gets killed and Vikram survives.

Years passes. Kesarbai’s daughter, Renu (Komal) has grown up and studies in a college where Rani Maa’s grown-up son, Rajkumar (Kunal Goswami) also studies in the same college. While Renu is tomboyish in nature, Rajkumar does not believe in royal pomps but behaves like a commoner. They fall in love with each other. Again. Virat brings the budding love affairs of Rajkumar with Renu. But unlike Vikram, Rajkumar confronts with Rani Maa to have his way. She locks Rajkumar in a room. Virat helps him to escape just to put blame on Vikram so that he is deprived of his royal position which can come to Virat. Vikram comes to know that Renu is his daughter. After a lot of verbal duals between Vikram and Rani Maa and again between Rajkumar and Rani Maa, there is happy ending with Virat gets punished but at the cost of the sacrifice of Suraj.

The film is the usual mainstream Hindi film, the story of which belongs to the genre of films like ‘Umrao Jaan’ (1982). So, there is not much novelty in the film’s story. I, however, found the film to be interesting to watch because of the fast-paced screenplay and good dialogues. Also, the villainous role of Ranjeet is subtle. The duration of the film could have been easily reduced in the second half by a tight editing and avoiding a couple of songs picturised on Kunal Goswami and Komal. Shashi Kapoor as a timid Diwan and the adopted son of Waheeda Rahman has given a good performance. Smita Patil as a courtesan is excellent. This film is one more proof that she is not only one of the greatest actress of off-beat films but also of mainstream commercial films. The film was not a box office hit in the standard of Prakash Mehra’s super hit films like ‘Namak Halaal’ (1982) and ‘Sharaabi’ (1984).

‘Ghunghroo’ (1983) had six songs including a multiple version song which were written by Anjaan (3), Prabha Thakur (2) and Prakash Mehra (1) and set to music by Kalyanji-Anandji. I am presenting the first song from the film, ‘tohfa qabool hai hamen sarkaar aap ka’ rendered by Asha Bhosle. The lyrics are written by Prabha Thakur who is a Hindi poet and politician belonging to Congress Party. She was a once elected to Lok Sabha and was a member of Rajya Sabha for two terms. She is also associated with Rajasthani films as producer-director-writer-singer. She has written lyrics for a few Hindi films and was a playback singer for one song.

The song is picturised on Smita Patil who comes on an invitation to the royal palace assuming that she has been invited for her engagement ceremony with Shashi Kapoor. But on reaching the royal palace, she comes to know that Shashi Kapoor is getting engaged to someone else (Padmini Kapila) for which she has to give her dance performance for the occasion. It is a shocking event for her which she has excellently brought out in her dance performance with a faster dance movement and the facial expressions mixed with her emotional turmoil and the happy occasion. I have seen her dancing in ‘Bhumika’ (1977) and ‘Angaarey’ (1986), but her dance performance for this song has to be the best that I have watched in her films.

And kudos to Asha Bhosle, Kalyanji-Anandji, the Choreographer and the set designer for an excellent audio-video presentation.

Hullo Atuldom

Song Movie (year) Remarks
Man prem ki jyot jala sajni (Anaath Ashram)(1937)
Yoonhi huye badnaam sanwariya (Subah Ka taara)(1954) Post by Sadanand Kamath
Maa ne bheja dhor chalaane (Neelkamal)(1947) Lyrics by Nitin Shah
Chamkke paseena ban ke nageena (Reshami Ki Dori)(1974) Lyrics by Avinash Scarpwala. Dharmendra’s 78th birthday

The above is not an attempt at any ‘Blog-Ten Year Challenge’. I was just looking up to see what were the films that appeared on the blog on that day ten years ago(8 december 2013) and the “YYIIPPEEEE” status of those movies.

Movie (Year) Songs status of the movie
Anaath Asharam(1937) 3 songs out of 15
Subah Ka Taara(1954) yyiippeeeed
Neel Kamal( 1947) yyiippeeeed
Resham Ki Dori(1974) 3 songs out of 6

Recently, the blog touched 18100. In that post, Atulji pointed out that in the 79 days between post number 18000 & 18100 my small contribution was 16 posts. That means 16 songs in 12 weeks. And I was surprised that it is a case of some week having more than one song; this must have happened in the month of October when a few of my favourite heroes, heroines & singers had their birthdays & death anniversaries. But one thing is for sure, the frequency of my writing is erratic and I don’t know what excuses to offer. But here is taking fresh guard after my last, which was my 600th post.

“Gehri Chot” (1983) was initially released with the title “Door Desh” in March 1983 (as per some sites on the internet). The YouTube link for the film shows date of certificate issue as 30-11-1983; that confuses me further- how can the film release before getting a censor certificate.

On researching a little in the KNOWLEDGE BOX that the blog has become I found “Paanch Dushman” (1973) to be an almost similar case i.e. it was re-released with the title “Daulat Ke Dushman” in 1981. The reasons for the two title-changed re-release may be different but they may make an interesting case study.

Shall call the film “Door Desh”, as mentioned in the censor certificate, and the titles of the film starts as ‘Gehri Chot’ urf ‘Door Desh’. The film is listed on IMDB as an action-crime-drama & was an Indian- Canadian film directed by Ambrish Sangal; who was an assistant to J. Om Prakash during ‘Aya Sawan Jhoom Ke’ ; ‘Aan Milo Sajna’ etc. & later went on to make ‘Aatish’; ‘Aap toh aise na the’; ‘Dard’; ‘Suraag’ etc.

“Door Desh” had Shashi Kapoor, Sharmila Tagore, Raj Babbar, Parveen Babi, Nadeem Baig, Bobita (not to be confused with the Kapoor bahu Babita), David Abraham (in one of his last roles, he had already retired & settled in Canada by then) etc.

Bobita (Farida Akhtar Poppy) was an award winning Bangaldeshi actress, from her filmography it is evident that she has been active till 2015 as actress & is also a producer. Nadeem Baig (Mirza Nazeer Baig) is a Pakistani actor, singer, & producer regarded as the best all-time Pakistani actor in Heroic roles, and he is still working in films & television. “Door Desh” opens with a dedication to David Abraham who had died on 2nd January 1982, i.e. before the film released.

Usha Khanna was the music director & Indeevar the lyricist. Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle, Usha Mangeshkar, Chandrani Mukherjee, Yesudas, Anwar & Usha Khanna (herself). Story -screenplay- dialogue was by Suraj Sanim.
The film was the story of an NRI (Shashi Kapoor) from Toronto who comes to India to marry a traditional Indian woman (Sharmila Tagore). The film then goes on to the adjustment problems the couple face & their separation after the birth of their kids- the son (Raj Babbar on growing up)goes back to India with the mother & daughter (Bobita) stays with the father. The family comes together 20 years later when there is a crisis, as the daughter has been kidnapped. The mother comes with the son to help trace the daughter.

Sharmila Tagore, whose birthday is on 8th December, made her debut in films through Bengali films in 1959. Her first Hindi film was in 1964 ‘Kashmir Ki Kali’ with Shammi Kapoor as her hero. 1965 was the first time she was paired with Shashi Kapoor, in B.R. Film’s ‘Waqt’.

The two of them were seen in 11 movies after that :-
Aamne Saamne (1967), Suhana Safar (1970), My Love (1970), Aa Gale Lag Jaa (1973), Paap Aur Punya (1974), Anari (1975), Gehri Chot urf Door Desh (1983), New Delhi Times, Maa Beti, Swati (all in 1986), Hum Toh Chale Pardes (1988).

Shashi Kapoor stopped acting in films sometime in the 1980s, but he did direct ‘Ajooba’ in 1990. He was seen in two Merchant-Ivory films in 1993 & 1998 and a British-Pakistani film, also in 1998. He died on 4th December 2017 due to liver & heart complications.

Thinking of the sweet & charming Shashi Kapoor today. Also wishing Sharmila Tagore all happiness & good health on her special day.

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Kraanti-1981’. This was one of the biggest movies of our times when people like me were still growing up or had just entered their teens. I still vividly remember the summer of 1981 when we had watched this movie in the near-by city Akola (Maharashtra). This movie was passed by Censor Board on 28.01.1981. Unlike now, when movies are released simultaneously in all places, it would take two-three months for the movies to reach the theatres then.

I also remember the discussions among elders at home and seniors in our friend circle as to how Manoj Kumar had put everything at stake (including selling his property to finance the film) to make this movie and his hard work and dedication paid off. Public praised the movie and made it a blockbuster hit. After the success of the film, articles appeared in film magazines and print media where Manoj Kumar stated that “‘Kraanti’ ne mujhe mera sab kuchh lautaa diya”.

“Kraanti-1981” was produced & directed by Manoj Kumar for his home productions ‘V.I.P Films’.

Readers who have watched this movie must be aware about the story of this movie. Nevertheless I am reproducing below what is mentioned at the beginning of this movie on screen;

“Kraanti” is inspired from the martyrs of Indian struggle for freedom during 1825 to 1875 A.D. but remained unknown in the pages of history. This film is dedicated to that anonymous revolutionary farmer who took oath to free the motherland and lit the torch of ‘Kraanti’, who was he?”

Now we all know that the farmer is nobody else but Dilip Kumar … and Manoj Kumar played his son in the movie. He has a brother Shashi Kapoor and Nirupa Roy plays mother to both of them. Rest is the best of all ingredients of drama, action, emotions, songs etc required for a ‘blockbuster movie’ and should be enjoyed by watching the movie I think 🙂 (Though if possible in the future I can take you through the story of this movie with some of its ‘iconic’ dialogues like ‘Shambhu Singh ka dimaag – do dhaari talwaar’ (This is the famous lecherous character on screen of Hindi Cinema- Prem Chopra – who else!! 🙂 )

Story and screenplay of this movie was written by the famous duo Salim-Javed. Dialogues for this movie were written by Manoj Kumar himself and he had also done the editing of this movie. Lyrics for the songs in this movie were by Manoj Kumar and Santosh Anand and music was composed by the great music-duo Laxmikant-Pyarelal.

This movie has seven songs including one two-part song. Mahendra Kapoor, Lata Mangeshkar, Nitin Mukesh, Mohd Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Minoo Purushottam, Shailendra Singh and Manna Dey had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

On music front the songs of this movie are very good and in fact this is one of the best albums of composer Laxmikant-Pyarelal from the decade of 1981-1990. There were many others too.

Three songs from this movie “Kranti-1981” had appeared in the ‘annual list of Binaca Geetmala’ of the year ‘1981’. These three songs covering different emotions were ‘zindagi ki naa toote ladi- at number two (at number one it was ‘mere angne mein from ‘Laawaaris-1981’ 🙂 ), ‘chanaa zor garam’ at number six and ‘looie shamasha’ at number twenty-six. Apart from these three songs the other four songs from this movie are also nice hummable songs and were quite popular during those days. Out of the total seven songs in this movie five were penned by Santosh Anand and two were penned by Manoj Kumar himself. The songs that featured in the ‘Annual Binaca Geetmala-1981’ are all written by Santosh Anand.

Today I present a song written by Manoj Kumar from this movie. The song is a popular ‘Maata ki bhent’ song. It is part of all popular compilations brought out by music companies on ‘Maata Devotional Songs’. This song is sung by Mahendra Kapoor and Minoo Purushottam.

In the movie this songs appears at three different occasions and it played in the back ground on screen. The first part of this song is played when the King after giving permission to the British to use their port for shipping activities. The King visits the town temple for offering prayers to the ‘devi’ and seeking the blessing of the goddess for his sister who is expecting a child. The second time only the ‘mukhdaa’ of this song is played (which in the audio version is the beginning of the song)in the background when Rana Sanga (Dilip Kumar) declares war against the British and attacks the fort. The third part of the song happens when Sanga (Dilip Kumar) is about to hang Shakti (Shashi Kapoor) who is Sanga’s son but he Sanga is not aware of that. When Shakti is about to be hanged the prayer sound from the temple is heard and Shakti’s hanging is postponed for the next day as Sanga has to visit the temple of ‘devi maata’. When Sanga reaches the temple he sees his wife (Nirupa Roy) there and both of them meet after a long time. During this meeting Nirupa Roy also tells Sanga about Shakti being their younger son.

As mentioned above Manoj Kumar wrote the lyrics of this song. Four songs penned by Manoj Kumar have already been posted on the blog earlier, and few more may be coming in the future, as there are songs written by him for movies like ‘Shirdi Ke Saibaba-1977’, ‘Kranti-1981’, ‘Painter Babu-1983’, ‘Kalaakaar-1983’, ‘Ricky-1986’, ‘Kalyug Aur Ramayan-1987’, ‘Clerk-1989’, ‘Santosh-1989’, ‘Jai Hind-1999’, ‘Maalik Ek-2010’ etc.

Enjoy this beautiful ‘maata bhajan’ as we are still celebrating the ‘sharadiya navratri festival’ in our country. In the state of ‘Gujarat’, festivities are going on in full swing. Temples and markets have been decorated. Garba’ grounds are especially decorated and people are performing ‘Garbas’ with full religious fervour. Songs and music can be heard on loud speakers (or stereo speakers).

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
———————————————————–—-
#Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Qawwalis – Part-2 – Post-9)
—————————————

Today’s song is a ‘Qawwali’ song from the 1978 movie ‘Muqaddar’!!!

I have mentioned the following in one of earlier posts on the blog, while presenting the series on ‘Qawwalis’ ‘Part-1’.

Qawwalis were common in Hindi films when I was growing up (1968-1983). As I grew watching them in the movies in my childhood, some qawwalis left lasting impression on my impressionable mind. I have a special fascination for this genre of music. It always takes me to an entirely different ‘musical world’.

In Hindi movies qawwalis are woven with the story topic of the movie. So, we have ‘’romantic qawwalis’, ‘men vs. women’, ‘husn aur ishq’, ‘celebrating a festival’, ‘devotional qawwalis’, ‘chor-police’, ‘marriage celebration’, ‘mujrim-munsif’, ‘scoring peanuts over each other’ (Atulology), ‘nok-jhonk’, ‘teasing each other’, ‘musical competition’, and other types of qawwalis in our movies.

Or it may be a competition of poetry between two groups (read men and women mostly) where ‘qawwalis’ would perfectly fit into the plot of a movie.

In many movies Qawwalis have been used to keep the suspense intact where actors, actresses would disguise themselves and enter the villain’s den to rescue their partners/friends caught by the villain. Or sometimes the villain will kidnap close relatives of the hero or heroine in the movie and ask for a ‘hefty’ ransom. And the hero/heroine would plan a song or disguise as a ‘musical-troupe’ to enter the ‘villain’s den’ to rescue a ‘child’, ‘relatives’ or a ‘famous scientist’ or a ‘police commissioner’ who would have been kidnaped by the villain or his associates. In our movies we also have qawwalis where we see ‘lawful elements (police, CID) and the unlawful elements (goondas, or burglar, thieves)’ have a ‘qawwali muqaabla’ in “disguise”. Qawwalis programs or performance in the movie was also played to mis-lead the villain sometimes. The hero/heroine or their friends and well-wishers would sing a qawwali and simultaneously free the innocent ones or their near and dear ones kidnapped by the villain and hold in his ‘den’. Sometimes this would happen just before the climax of the movie.

Today’s Qawwali is one performance which happens in the movie before the climax. We can say that it is the beginning of the climax in the movie.

‘Muqaddar-1978’ was directed by Ravi Tandon for ‘Sneh Films, Bombay’.

It was produced by Ravi Anand. It had Shashi Kapoor, Sanjeev Kumar, Parikshit Sahni, Rekha, Vidya Sinha, Paintal and Amjad Khan.
Other star cast includes Mac Mohan, Yunus Parvez, Jankidas, Rajesh Behl, Bharat Kapoor, Nandita Thakur, Vikas Anand, Praveen Pal, Ranveer Raj, Chandu, Master Shaka, Master Rajeev, Baby Rani, Uma Dhawan, Sudhir, O.P. Goyal and Jayshree T.

Aruna Irani makes guest appearance in this movie. Editing of this movie was done by S.R. Kabre. Dialogues of this movie were written by Dr Balkrishna Mauj. Story and Screenplay was written by Mukul Anand. This movie had four songs (as per HFGK Vol V 1971-1980) written by Anjaan and composed by Rajesh Roshan. Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar, Mohd Rafi, Usha Mangeshkar had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

Let me take you through this movie till the end (Which I watched again on YouTube for this presentation). I have in my earlier post with this movie’s song have mentioned about its story in brief and mostly covering most of the first half of this movie. Today I will take you till the end of this movie here.

This movie ‘Muqaddar-1978’ is ‘DEDICATED TO THE TWENTY-FOUR-HOUR SOLDIERS! THE UNSUNG HEROES! THE POLICE!!

We have a strict and disciplined Police Inspector – Vijay Saxena (Sanjeev Kumar). He is very tough with ‘criminals’ and so sometimes he can deliver justice ‘on the spot’ 🙂
Inspector Vijay is a bachelor and normally eats at a road side ‘dhhaabaa’ run by Abdul Bhai (Yunus Parvez). One day Vijay reach the ‘dhhaabaa’ and orders the food for him. At the same time one old woman beggar comes there and asks for food. Vijay asks Abdul Bhai to provide her food and the expenses will be borne by him.
However when the ‘bhikhari buddhiya’ is crossing the road a car hits her and run away … Inspector Vijay follows the car, and as usual taking ‘Qaanoon’ in his hands ‘beats the ‘badmaash(s)’ … but then he has to face his senior Police Commissioner ( Jairaj).

Annoyed by his action the commissioner of Police Jairaj (played by Jairaj) transfers him to the area of ‘Dhaaraavi’ where the local goons and the anti-social elements are highly active and need a ‘better treatment from the Police’ so that they are under control.
So, our Inspector is now in Dharavi, and he already has a sincere and dedicated assistant there – Patil (Bharat Kapoor) … who eventually sacrifices his life since he has been asked that ‘is mujrim pe goli mat chalana’ … but mujrim fires on him …

In Dharavi we have Parishit Sahni as a ‘labour leader’ working in a ‘kapada mill’ of Sampat Seth (Amjad Khan). Sampat Seth is more interested in ‘smuggling’ to become the ‘wealthiest smuggler’. Sampat Seth has a sister Seema (Rekha) – who is interested in social work and has a soft corner towards labors in the ‘basti’. We have Ramu Dada (Shashi Kapoor) as a ‘spoiled’ younger brother of Amar Babu (Parikshit Sahni). Vidya Sinha plays Savitri (wife of Parikshit Sahni), Shashi’s Bhabhi and Rekha’s friend. Jimmy (Paintal) is Shashi’s lieutenant and accompanies him whenever he is driving truck and enjoying ‘mujaras’ after the day’s hard work 
After reaching ‘Dhaaraavi’ Inspector Vijay destroys many ‘daaru and matke ka addaas’ and arrests many goons and local ‘daadas’ and warns them of dire consequences if they do not stop doing illegal & anti-social activities. In this mission his trusted assistant Patil ably supports him with required information and whereabouts of the criminals ‘operating locations’.

In the ‘mill’, workers are expecting ‘bonus’ as the ‘Dushehra festival’ is approaching.
Sampat Seth declares bonus to workers as he wants them to work on ‘Dushehre ki Chhutti’, and behind the holiday working he can hide the ‘smugglers’ meet’ so that no one doubts …Parikshit Sahni is first reluctant, but then agrees to convince the workers to work on the ‘festival holiday’.

There is a beggar in the neighbourhood Chandu (Chandu) – deaf and dumb – always asking for money from Amar Babu (Parikshit Sahni). But on Amar Babu’s advice he gives up begging and from the money given by Amar Babu is now making pictures by Rangoli Powder of ‘Ganesh, Sai Baba’, and ‘Shri Ram’on the road side. He has a crucial role in the movie as we progress further.
Meanwhile Inspector Vijay gets Ramu Dada and Jimmy into lock-up to interrogate them, but release them soon so as to keep track of them and their contacts secretly.

However on the day of ‘Dushehra ’celebrations as the Ravana’s effigy is set to fire by the arrows of Amar Babu and Ramu Dada, enters our Inspector Vijay Saxena for checking of the ‘truck’ driven by Ramu Dada from Goa suspecting that it contains smuggled items in it😊 But he do not find anything objectionable there.

It so happens that one day Amar Babu notices some unusual truck movements after closing hours at the factory so he asks Sudhir (Sudhir) the loading Inspector about it. But Sudhir tells him that there is no activity after closing hours at the factory. However, on the day of ‘Diwali’ Amar Babu follows them and caught them loading the smuggled items (illicit liquor) into the trucks. Sudhir and his accomplice Rajesh (Rajesh Behl) and Amar Babu have arguments. Thinking of to bring this illegal activity to the notice of the owner and unaware that it is done only at the behest of him, Amar Babu reaches to the owner’s house. Where Sampat Seth tries to bribe him and Amar Babu gets to know all about the game. He lefts the place but is followed by the henchmen of Sampat Seth and is killed before he can disclose this secret to anyone. The deaf and dumb Chandu has seen these two persons killing Amar Babu.

(There is a sub-plot of Shehnaaz Bai (Aruna Irani). Ramu Dada had saved her earlier from goons and is her ‘raakhi brother’ now. So, when Ramu Dada leaves his Bhaiyya’s home he is staying at Shehnaaz Bai’s house which creates ‘galatfahmii’ in the mind of Seema. However, Shehnaaz Bai clarifies and told the ‘asliyat’ to Seema when Seema reach her place to request Ramu to return to his home.)

Seema persuades Ramu Dada to return back to his home. On the day of Diwali Ramu Dada buys some gifts for his bhaiyya-bhaabhi and return back to his home only to find his elder brother’s body lying to be taken for final rites.
Soon Ramu Dada and his accomplice Jimmy sets out to search for the killers, Chandu intercepted them and draw the sketches of the killers, where Jimmy identifies one of them i.e. Sudhir.
Ramu Dada bangs into Sudhir’s place and gets hold of him but Rajesh escapes. Ramu and Sudhir have fight. During the fight Sudhir dies (It is another fact that the real reason of his death comes to know later) and Ramu Dada is arrested by Police and sent behind the bars.
Police Inspector is also looking into the case of Amar Babu and they reach Chandu but Girdhari Lal the clever confidante of Sampat Seth shoots Chandu.
Chandu is dead but Police keeps him in the hospital under treatment to reach the real culprits. Girdhari Lal falls in the trap and get into the hospital to kill Chandu where Police Inspector is already hiding there to catch him. But Mac Mohan injects himself and dies without disclosing the name of the Boss. His other accomplices sitting outside the room try to run but Police chase them and in this chase one of the goons shoots Patil.
Police found some photographs from Girdhari Lal’s house where in one picture Sampat Seth, Sudhir, and Girdhari Lal are seen together. Inspector Vijay vows …
“Main Patil ki Qurbaani bekaar nahin jaane doongaa… Policewaalon ka khoon itnaa sastaa nahin hain Sampat Seth.”

Meanwhile the medical report of Sudhir reveals that he died due to drinking of poisonous liquor and not by the beating of Ramu Dada. Inspector Vijay thanks the doctor and is on the way to convey this good news to Ramu Dada. But Ramu Dada plans to run away from the jail and succeeds. One police officer tries to shoot him but Inspector stops him from doing so. Inspector is suspended on this act but now he knows the reality and wants to help Ramu Dada.
Ramu Dada gets to know from Lala that Sudhir, Rajesh, Girdhari Lal are all of Sampat Seth’s ‘aadmis’ so he goes to Sampat Seth’s bungalow where Seema tells him that her brother has gone to Goa. Sampat Seth has arranged a big get-together of all smugglers where ‘Tiger’ (Smuggler) will also be attending and there will be party and music with a ‘Qawwali ki Raat’ 

Inspector Vijay also follows to Goa and Abdul Bhai helps him in locating Sampat Seth’s ‘thhikaanaa’ and told him that it is difficult to enter there from the main gate and suggests that there is back door way but it is difficult. “Difficult but not impossible …” (Inspector Vijay)!!
Inspector Vijay swims the sea shores and the fights the big rocks  to reach the ‘addaa’ of Sampat Seth. On the way he meets Ramu Dada. After a brief scuffle they get together to ‘treat’ Sampat Seth. Meanwhile Sampat Seth kidnaps Ramu’s bhaabhi and has kept her at the ‘addaa’ for his entertainment.

Before the climax, as was customary in those years in the films, we have ‘qawwali’ where our heroes have disguised themselves, which obviously gets disclosed to Sampat before the performance ends. After usual final twists & turns Samat Seth gets his reward and dies.
Inspector Vijay submits his resignation to the commissioner but he torns it two pieces.
“Kal se tumhaari duty bhiwandi police station mein lagaayi gayi hai… wahaan ke kuchh gunde logon ko bahot pareshaan kar rahe hain …report for duty tomorrow”… Inspector Vijay salutes the commissioner …

Ramu Dada and Seema are together and his bhaabhi is happy. The mill workers have installed a bust of Amar Babu in the mill compound and the movie ends there. Cast of the movie and other titles gets rolling on screen and in the background we have the song playing…“Sooraj se aankhen milaa…Taaron ko o dharti pe laa aa” …

So that is all from one of those movies from the seventies – they were just magic (for us who were growing 🙂 ) …

(After all is done and dusted, one question comes to mind that why Inspector Vijay has to swim across the seashore, hang on the rope on the wall to have a back door entry at Sampat Seth’s ‘addaa’. As all the smugglers attending the ‘meet’ must have come travelling from the city only. Moreover, the Inspector has to disguise himself to reach there. So, he could have easily got entry inside from the main gate. May be the director had some other thoughts??? 🙂 )

Let us now enjoy this wonderful Qawwali sung by Kishore Kumar and Mohd Rafi. Shashi Kapoor and Sanjeev Kumar lip sync in their voices respectively. We can also see Amjad Khan, Vidya Sinha and many others in the picturisation of this song. Lyrics of the song are by Anjaan. He has penned very interesting lyrics for the given situation. This entertaining composition is by Rajesh Roshan. I am sure readers will enjoy watching and listening to this song. Here we go …

Hullo Atuldom

‘Sindoor’ (1987) was a movie produced by A Krishnamurti & directed by K Ravi Shankar. The movie starred Shashi Kapoor, Jaya Prada, Govinda, Neelam, Kadar Khan, Shakti Kapoor, Gulshan Grover, Aruna Irani, Asrani, Baby Guddu (the pet child actor of those times), AK Hangal, Prem Chopra (if my memory is correct Prem Chopra was in a double role), & Ramesh Deo. Jeetendra & Rishi Kapoor had guest & special appearance respectively. Songs were written by Anand Bakshi & tuned by Laxmi-Pyaare.

This lyricist-music director team gave us some great songs in that period. Today’s song is no less a melody. It was very popular in its time, heard often on Doordarshan (Chhaayageet etc.) & Vividh Bharati. The song had two versions, both were on-stage performances. One version had Shashi Kapoor & Neelam while the other was a duet between Rishi Kapoor & Jaya Prada. The common link between the 2 versions were Lata Mangeshkar and most of the lyrics. The male singers used for the two heroes were Suresh Wadkar & Mohammad Aziz.

Rishi Kapoor (Kumar) played a stage artist who had Jaya Prada (Laxmi) as his singing partner. Shashi Kapoor (Vijay) who played a professor who always had doubts about being worthy of his beautiful wife Laxmi in spite of being happily married. He had a feeling that Kumar & Laxmi shared more than their love for music. The gossip among fans of the music duo hardly helps matters. Things get out of hand & eventually, Laxmi leaves her home. On the same day, Vijay comes to know that Kumar is marrying someone else when he comes to invite Laxmi & Vijay.

The film had a few flashbacks – one showed the story of Laxmi, Vijay & Kumar and the other showed how Laxmi came to wear the white saree denoting that she was a widow. I think that there was one more flashback which showed why Lalita (Neelam) is kidnapped by Shera (Shakti Kapoor) when she was a baby & Prem Kapoor (Jeetendra) requesting Laxmi to take care of Lalita as her own child.

Then the film goes through a lot of scenes where the characters use glycerine at times when there are misunderstandings (there are many in the film), lot of sermons delivered by Kader Khan and a little dishoom-dishoom (what is a Hindi movie without dishoom-dishoom specially when Govinda & Shakti Kapoor are in the cast 🙂 ) The film comes to a close with Laxmi & Vijay getting back together. Vijay accepts Lalita as a daughter, and Ravi (Govinda) & Lalita get married with parental blessings from Laxmi and Vijay. And there are smiles all around.

Jaya Prada’s first hero in Hindi films was Rishi Kapoor, this was their second film which was followed by ‘Ghar Ghar Ki Kahani’ in 1988. This was the only film which had Shashi Kapoor sharing screen space with Jaya Prada.

Incidentally, today is Rishi Kapoor’s birth anniversary. He would have turned 71. And yesterday was Pyaarelal Ramprasad Sharma’s 83rd birthday. I hope I don’t need to say that Pyaarelal Ramprasad Sharma is Pyaarelal of the Laxmi-Pyaare duo.

Wishing Pyaarelal ji a (belated) happy birthday and remembering our cute Kapoor ‘Chintu’ a.k.a Rishi Kapoor.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Debutante Movie-Koi Jeeta Koi Haaraa-1976)
——————————————-——————————
(A tribute to Shashi Kapoor on his birth anniversary 18th March)
——————————————-————————————————————————-

Today 18th March’2023 is the eighty-fifth birth anniversary of actor-producer and director Shashi Kapoor.

He was born on 18th March’1938 and he passed away on 4th December’2017 at the age of seventy-eight.

Shashi Kapoor needs no introduction. There is a long list of movies he acted in. Many movies in the ‘seventies’ had him playing ‘lead’ or ‘supporting’ roles, and he was part of many movies of that decade (1971-1980) and even later.
Shashi Kapoor who started as a ‘child artist’ in Hindi movies later became Assistant Director, Actor, Producer and Director. He won many accolades and awards in his long film career.

As a tribute to him today I am presenting a song from one of his movies from the ‘seventies’.

We will get introduced to this movie on the blog today. This movie is ‘Koi Jeeta Koi Haaraa-1976’.

It was directed by for Sameer Ganguly for ‘Lakshmi Movies’.

‘Koi Jeeta Koi Haaraa-1976’ was produced by Anand Bhargava. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 09.06.1976.

The cast of this movie included Saira Banu, Shashi Kapoor, Romesh Sharma, Farida Jalal, Nazeer Hussain, Urmila Bhatt, Krishnakant, Manik Dutt, Jagdish Raj, Sharad Kumar, Pinchoo Kapoor, Master Shaka, Lalita Kumari, Tiger Kapoor, and others with Narendranath and Ranjeet.

Jagdeep and Junior Mehmood had a friendly appearance in this movie.

Story of this movie was written by the ‘Lakshmi Movies Story Department’. Scenario and dialogues of this movie was written by Agha Jani Kashmiri. Screenplay of this movie was written by Naiem. Editing of this movie was done by V.K. Naik.

‘Koi Jeeta Koi Haaraa-1976’ has five songs in it which all were written by Anand Bakshi. Music for this movie was composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.
Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle and Mohd Rafi had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

Here is the list of songs in this movie :-

SNo Song Title Singer/s
01 O baba, shaadi tum o baba na karnaa Lata Mangeshkar
02 Ban gayi baat baaton mein … Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle
03 Ae, oh, chup raho naa… aaj ham tum donon Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle
04 Teri meri baat nahin kismat ka khel hain saara… Koi jeeta koi haaraa Mohd Rafi
05 Hamne har ek galat kaam kiya hai … Kishore Kumar

I have neither watched this movie nor I have any recollections of songs associated with this movie’s name. However when I listened to the songs of this movie I find today’s song a little familiar and one which I had listened to earlier on radio or elsewhere.

Today’s song is sung by Kishore Kumar and Asha Bhonsle. It is a ‘romantic song’ which is picturised on Shashi Kapoor and Saira Banu.

We can also see Romesh Sharma driving towards he end of the song.

Let us now listen to the song and remember Shashi Kapoor, thanking him for giving us so many fond memories of his movies and the various characters he essayed on the screen, some of which become memorable and unforgettable in the history of Indian Cinema.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Debutant Movie – Heera Aur Patthar-1977)
——————————————-——————————

In this post I am presenting a song from the movie ‘Heera Aur Patthar-1977’. I came across this movie while looking for songs of some other movie. The name of this movie doesn’t ring any bells for me and when I checked for its songs none of them seemed familiar to me. I do not remember any song associated with the name of this movie. May be this movie was a lesser known or less successful movie of its time. The movie has the pair of Shashi Kapoor and Shabana Azmi of the hit movie ‘Faqeeraa-1976’, but the pair failed to create the same success for the makers of “Heera Aur Patthar”.

“Heera Aur Patthar-1977” was directed by Vijay Bhatt for his home productions ‘Vijay Films International’. It was produced by Arun Bhatt and Kishore Vyas.

It had Ashok Kumar, Shashi Kapoor, Shabana Azmi, with Asrani and Bindu, Narendranath, Jayshree T., supported by Bharat Bhushan, Chadrashekhar, Vatsala Deshmukh, Vandana Shastri, Pinchoo Kapoor, Raj Mehra, Asit Sen, Manorama, Ramesh Deo, Master Ratan, Kamal Deep, Moosa Kalim, Darshan, Sudhin Desai, and others.

The story of this movie was written by Arun Bhatt and screenplay of this movie was written by Ram Kelkar. Dialogues of this movie were written by Pandit Satyadev Dubey and additional dialogues were written by Moosa Kalim.

Editing of this movie was done by B. Prasad.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 09.05.1977.

For interested readers, who would like to know about this movie I am quoting the very brief about this movie from the ‘YouTube’ link of this movie, which is also uploaded only recently i.e. in ‘September’2022.

Here is this brief about the movie ‘Heera Aur Patthar’-

Shankar loses his faith in God when his mother doesn’t recover from a fire that was set by a cruel and greedy zamindar, Vikram Singh. He takes Shankar’s father’s and uncle’s land. They both now carry pilgrims up to the temple on a doli. But Shankar refuses to visit the temple even when he grows up. He meets Gauri and starts climbing the temple steps daily to meet her. Shankar’s life is in danger. Who wants to kill him?

From the brief about this movie mentioned on IMDB it can also be added that Shankar (Shashi Kapoor) takes on his fight with the zamindar/s to free the poor peasants in the village from the clutches of the zamindar/s. In this fight he is ready to go to any extent and get succeeds in the end.
For information Shankar is played by Shashi Kapoor. Shankar’s father and uncle on screen are Bharat Bhushan and Chadrashekhar respectively. Gauri is played by Shabana Azmi. And we also have Ashok Kumar as kind hearted Dr. Anand and Bindu as Roopa Bai. So overall I think it could be a nice entertainment to watch this movie at least once. (I am going to try it in future ).

“Heera Aur Patthar” has six songs, equally distributed between Anjaan and Maya Govind, both penning three songs each.

Music for this movie was composed by Kalyanji-Anandji.

Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle and Kishore Kumar had sung the songs in this movie.

Here are the detail of the songs in this movie :-

SNo Song Title Lyricist Singer/s
01 Ham tum pehli baar miley hai… janam janam ki preet Anjaan Lata Mangeshkar
02 Pyaar kaaghaz pe likhi kahaani nahin Anjaan Kishore Kumar
03 Na jaao sainyya riske…gehoon jaisi mori jawaani Maya Govind Asha Bhonsle
04 Pyaar kaaghaz pe likhi kahaani nahin Anjaan Lata Mangeshkar
05 Arey sambhal sambhaal kar chalan pyaare… dekh tamaashaa mere bhaiyya Maya Govind Kishore Kumar, chorus
06 Prem ki jogan dar pe aayi … naam tera bhale ho kanhaiyya Maya Govind Lata Mangeshkar

For today’s presentation we have this multiple version song sung by Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar for the male and female version respectively. The video of the male version is available where actor Shashi Kapoor is lip-syncing in Kishore Kumar’s voice. We can see Shabana Azmi blushing while Shashi Kapoor sings this romantic number of her.

Video of the female version is not available as of now.

Lyrics for the song are by Anjaan and music is composed by Kalyanji-Anandji.

Let us listen to the song now… while listening to the song try not to jump to the other song ‘kore kaaghaz pe mujhse karaa le sahi’ by the same composers, or does it reminds you of any other song too? 🙂

With this song this movie ‘Heera Aur Patthhar-1977’ makes its debut on the blog and joins the growing list of movies of ‘1970s’ that have already been introduced in the blog.

aisaa dil hai kahaan
pyaar jismein naa ho
aisaa dil hai kahaan
aisaa dil laa ke ham ko
dikhaa de koyi ee
pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likhe
aur likhkar mitaa de koyi ee

haal jo hai idhar
haal wo hai udhar
tu na boley magar
boley teri nazar
tere chehre se to
saaf zaahir hai ye
neend aayi na hogi
tujhe raat bhar
maine jo bhi kahi
baat sach hai yahi
maine jo bhi kahi
baat sach hai yahi
baat ye kyon
hansi mein udaa de koyi
pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likkhe
aur likhkar mitaa de koyi ee
pyaar ki umr mein
pyaar ho jaaye to
pyaar kyun naa karen
ye bataa de koyi ee
pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likkhe
aur likhkar mitaa de koyi ee

(Female version –Lata Mangeshkar)

na de qasam mujhe ae ae
ke tujhko bhool jaaun
ye vaadaa kaise kar loon
jo nibhaa naa paaun

pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likkhe
aur likhkar mitaa de koyi
pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likkhe
aur likhkar mitaa de koyi
pyaar to pyaar hai
pyaar ho jaaye to
pyaar ko dil se kaise
bhulaa de koyi
pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likkhe
aur likhkar mitaa de koyi

bhool jaao mujhe
keh diyaa is tarah
bhool jaana koi
khel ho jis tarah
yaad karnaa tumhen
hai meri zindagi
zindagi ko bhula de
koyi kis tarah
muskuraate labon se
hansi chheen kar
kyun hansaate hansaate
rulaa de koyi
pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likkhe
aur likh kar mitaa de koyi

maut aayee kisi din
to mar jaayen ham
ye ummedein ye sapne
to marte nahin
waqt har zakhm bhar de
kisi din magar
is muhabbat ke to zakhm
bharte nahin
ye diyaa jo dilon ke
lahoo se jaley
ye diyaa aise kaise
bujhaa de koyi
pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likkhe
aur likhkar mitaa de koyi
pyaar to pyaar hai
pyaar ho jaaye to
pyaar ko dil se kaise
bhulaa de koyi
pyaar kaaghaz pe likkhi
kahaani nahin
jo likkhe
aur likhkar mitaa de koyi
