Posts Tagged ‘Vinod Khanna


When we like songs, we tend to gain information about the songs (name of the movie, actors lip syncing it etc) in due course. And then there are songs whose information continue to be nebulous though that does not stop us from enjoying these songs.

“Chowkidaar” (1974) did not create any impression at the box office when it was released. And it meant that yet another movie with Madan Mohan’s compositions flopped and the songs of this movie remained unheard and unwatched by moviegoers.

Here is a classic “what ! This song was not yet posted !” category of song. 🙂 All these days, I was firmly under the belief that this song was discussed long back. 🙂

It took the occasion of Mahendra Kapoor’s birthday (9th january) for me to realise the fact that this song was not yet discussed in the blog.

1969 was the debut year for Bindu and Vinod Khanna was just one year into the industry (having his debut in the ‘Man Ka Meet’ (1968)). In personal life, Bindu was already a married lady by this time. As far as I can review her filmography, the film Nateeja (1969) is apparently the only film in which she has played the role of a leading lady. Having played small roles in Anpadh (1962), as the college going daughter of Mala Sinha, and a supporting role in Aurat (1967), 1969 was the year that that she arrived on the film scene with five releases to her credit, viz. Doli, Ittefaaq, Do Raaste, Aayaa Saawan Jhoom Ke and Nateeja. With a combination of both positive and negative roles, she made her mark this year, and embarked on a career that would make her famous as Mona Darling (Zanzeer, 1971). She played the oomph girl in many films (Kati Patang (1971), Hawas (1974), Imtihaan (1974) etc.), and she also did serious supporting roles in Abhimaan (1973), Chaitaali (1975), Arjun Pandit (1976) etc.

When one thinks of Helen, one thinks of a cabarat song(typically sung by Asha Bhonsle) where Helen, suitably under dressed by Indian standards, performs her dance and then bows out, playing no further part in the movie. There are many Helen fans though who would like to see her in meatier roles in these movies.
