Hrishikesh Mukherjee has been known to make the family-oriented and ‘slice of the life’ types of films such as ‘Anuradha. (1960), ‘Anupama’ (1966), ‘Aashirwaad’ (1968), ‘Satyakam’ (1969), ‘Anand’ (1970), ‘Guddi’ (1971) and many more. When the film, ‘Sabse Bada Sukh’ (1972) was announced to be produced and directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee, it became a topic of discussion in the film magazines at that time because it was a sex comedy which was a departure from the usual theme of his films. It was a low budget film probably because Hrishikesh Mukherjee was taking a risk of experimenting with a story which was out of his comfort zone. The cast included Vijay Arora, Faiyyaz, Robi Ghosh, Naarghita, Rajnibala, Utpal Dutt, Asrani, Keshto Mukherjee, Tarun Ghosh, Meena Rai etc.

Today’s song is from an exceptional Hindi Horror film – House No. 13..1991.

When you say Horror film, only one name comes to mind prominently and that is Ramsay Brothers. They became famous for making C grade horror films, for the C grade audience. The quality of their horror films was not worth discussing, nevertheless, they did good business. Not that such attempts were not made earlier by anybody else. But Overall, Horror films in Hindi Did not have the class it attained in horror films made in western world, especially Hollywood. Even Master Bhagwan had tried his hand at making a horror film – Bhedi Bangla-1949.

Today’s film was made by DVF Investments, Madras. It was completely shot in the Vauhini Studios of madras Actually the film was a remake of the hit Tamil film ” Pathimoonam Number Veedu”-1990. When I saw the credits of the Tamil film, I was surprised that it was directed by Baby, the screenplay was by Baby and the story was also by Baby. We are not used to seeing such confusing names. Not knowing if this ‘Baby’ was a Male or a Female, I found that the full name was A.G.Baby and HE was a well known director of offbeat Tamil films. The producer was G.A.Sheshgiri Rao. This film was released in theatres on 16-8-1991.

This film is one of the lesser known among the films directed by Basu Chatterjee who have directed many ‘middle of the road’ films. The Ajmer born and Mathura bred Basu Chatterjee (10/01/1927 – 04/06/2020) migrated to Mumbai in 1948 and worked as a cartoonist in ‘Current’ and ‘Blitz’ for about 18 years before venturing into Hindi films as Assistant Director under Basu Bhattacharya for ‘Teesri Kasam’ (1966) and under Govind Saraiya for ‘Saraswatichandra (1968). ‘Saara Aakaash’ (1969) was his first independently directed film which got him his first Filmfare Award for the Best Screenplay. The films which brought him accolades were ‘Rajanigandha’ (1974) followed by ‘Chhoti Si Baat’ (1975), ‘Chitchor’ (1976). Thereafter, he directed many films, most of which belonged to ‘middle of the road cinema’. In all, he directed 42 films and 8 TV serials during his career of four decades.

‘Manzilein Aur Bhee Hain’ (1974) was produced by Johny Bakshi and was directed by Mahesh Bhatt who also wrote the story. The dialogues were written by the veteran theatre personality, Satyadev Dube. The cast included Kabir Bedi and Prema Narayan in the lead roles supported by Gulshan Arora, Purnima, Sudhir, Mac Mohan, Mukesh Bhatt, Shah Durrani, Kirti Kumar, Viju Khote, Ranvir Raj, Uma Dutt etc. Both Johny Bakshi and Mahesh Bhatt made their debuts as producer and director, respectively. Both had known each other while working for Raj Khosla as Assistant Director/Production Controller.

The film was completed in 1972 but ran into problems with Censor Board for about 15 months. In an interview, Mahesh Bhatt revealed that for Censor Board, the film’s two fugitives’ polyandrous relationship with a woman who is their partner in crime amounted to undermining the institution of marriage. Finally, the film got the Censor Certificate on August 13, 1974, as an ‘Adult’ film with cuts. The film had a limited theatrical released on September 27, 1974. The VCD of the film I watched, has a 2016 Censor Certificate with major cuts to make it fit for public viewing under parental guidance. The theme of the film is that there are alternative paths to becoming a criminal who lives under the constant fear of death.
