One of my favourite movies. Sunil Dutt, Vahida Rehman's love story with a few bullets flying here and there! Shot in a record short time, not only because it was Sunil Dutt's production, but also because in those days, CHAMBAL valley was full of real dacoits. Jaidev's melodious music with Sahir's haunting tunes.
The last film by Balraj Sahani. Great communal story in partition era of India. A muslim shoemaker's struggle in increasingly partisan climate.
Dilip Kumar Waheeda Rehman
Ashok Kumar, Pradeep Kumar and Asha Parekh in this musical social drama. The futility of beauty and external appearance.
Guru Dutt & Wahida Rehman. This was India's first widescreen film; it used the CinemaScope process
Balraj Sahani, Sadhna & Sanjay Khan in a melodrama about fatherhood with many great songs.
Raj Kapoor's famous movie. Pran in his first character appearance with Nargis. Even Mukesh sings and acts in the final song as the Cart Man.
Bimal Roy's haunting movie with Dilip Kumar's most celebrated acting in Sharat Babu's epic story of unrequited love, class struggle and despair. Dilip Kumar, Vyyajantimala, Suchitra Sen, Motilal, Pran, Nazir Hussain. A history unto itself as it plunged Dilp Kumar into real depression and was advised to act in light comedies after this movie. Also one of those few movies that youth of those days followed and coined a new term "Devdas" for the depressed lover.
Manoj Kumar Sharmila Tagore
Shashi Kapoor and Nanda's Musical Romance.
