There have been quite a few Rafi songs where Rafi has sung with such high energy levels that the listeners are left gasping for breath literally. To this day I keep wondering how a singer can sing with such high energy level throughout in a song lasting well over three minutes and sometimes more. Songs of “Junglee”(1961), “Rajkumar”(1964),”Prince” (1967),”Saawan Bhaadon”(1970) etc readily come to mind as songs whose energy levels could have lit up a few households if harnessed properly.

“Mahua” (1969) was a reincarnation story and quite an ambitious one at that. Here the hero and heroine undergo not one, but two reincarnations each. It is obviously difficult to keep track of the comlicated plot, not just for the moviegoers, for for the moviemakers too. So the end result was a confused and confusing movie that duly flopped at the box office.

From the little I know about “Mahua” (1969), it was a story about re incarnation, but unlike say “Madhumati” (1958) and “Milan” (1967), the makers of this movie were not clear about what they wanted to present to the public. The movie finally ended up with a confused story line which was given a thumbs down by the movie goers.

“Raftaar” (1975) was a movie that was not quite A grade, nor it was an entirely B grade movie. In 1970s, such movies, which were neither here nor there tended to have Vinod Mehra and Mausami Chatterji in them as the lead pair. Put another way, they were poor producer’s Dharmendra-Hema Malini.

“Beti” (1969) is a movie which had Sanjay Khan, Nanda, Kamini Kaushal, Kishor Sahu, Rajendra Nath in it. I have not seen this movie but it is my theory that a movie whose title included words like “Beti”, “Bhabhi”, “Bahu” etc tend to be a tales of women who are shown sacrifices just for the sake of it. I do not know whether I am correct in my assesment of this movie that I have made just by looking at the title and the starcast. I request our knowledgeable readers to help confirm/ refute my guess about this movie.
