When one thinks of a bolt of lightning, it recreates in the mind the crackling sound of particles in the air subjected to currents of extremely high voltage, streaks of very very bright light zig-zagging across the sky, the rumbling sounds of thunder that follow the flash of light in a matter of few seconds. People who have witnessed bolts of lightning at very close quarters recount the intensity of both the sound and the flash of light. Sound of the crackling air, the sound of thunder, the blinding flash, and the rush of moving air at very close quarters. Whether from a distance, or a close quarters, this display of light and sound and movement is a gripping experience, for those who have an appetite for it.

The energy and the vitality that Shammi Kapoor brought on to the screen was unprecedented and unparalleled. Starting off with Jeewan Jyoti in 1953, there was a fair number of films, almost 20 or so, that he did between 1953 and 1957. In many of the films in this period, he was trying to emulate his elder brother, Raj Kapoor. He did attract some attention with films like Rail Ka Dibba, Laila Majnu, Gul Sanobar etc., but somehow the histrionics and the on screen presence in those roles did not come across as a comfortable performer. In hind sight, one can say, that there was a different personality hidden inside that was impatient to explode, but was not finding the right expression.
