HB,

It will be wonderful if you can (at your convenience) rip the video of this song and share with us. It will be a fun to watch this lovely 9 minute song.

Parag


Uploading it with the relevant scene of their fight (Helen and Vyjanthimala) for perspective. This song is set up as a competition between the two to see who dances better. Its as much a competition of their dance skills as it is for the singing skills of the two singers. Both come up in flying colours although due to film reasons one has to be shown to lose but it is quite lamely done at the end.
Enjoy!

Very truely said HB. The heroine has to be shown as a winner, so without giving any logical reason/explanation VM is shown as the winner!

Thanks for the video once again. Thoroughly enjoyed!

Glad you liked the video Parag.
Logical explanation is there - she is heroine and they have to show that the traditional heroine is better than the 'modern' friend of hers! I think they call this bollywood stereotype! laugh.gif

Are you sure that's helen in Kangan?! I know the credit says so on youtube. The stylist/makeupman has tried to show her as the village belle with mixed effects.

Samandar ko Baandhe Aisa Koi Ghaat Nahi, Kadmon ko thaame aisi koi baat nahin Patli si dhaara samundar mein milti hai, milkar ke kho jaati hai, ghaat ghaat hi rehte hain woh samundar ho jaati hai, karlo jo chaaho, banlo jo chaaho

“Geet boodhe nahin hote, unke chehron pe jhurriyan nahi girti
wo palte rahte hain, chalte rahte hain
sun-ne walo ki umra badal jaati hai….”

IMHO the makeupman has done a decent job. She looks different than her typical club dancer looks.

Difference between the two dancers-

Helen is the best dancer we have seen till date.
Her timing is matchless. She could follow any type of steps.
Is Prabhudeva listening......................... wink2.gif

Vaijayantimala is considered as best classical dancer in Hindi films
by critics and dance fans.


Here is the best singer of universe

Yes. Vyjanthimala is certainly recognised as best classical dancer. I guess that's because nobody gave those sort of dances to Helen!
Seeing a Prabhudeva-Helen combined dance would be really something!

Remembered a not very similar but a funny situation about a recent song from the film Khoon Bhari Maang (1988). Young actress Sonu Walia is shown to have a dance competition with an aging Rekha in the song "Main haseena ghazab ki" sung by Asha ji and Sadhna Sargam. Asha ji gave playback to Rekha and SS for Sonu. Many felt that though Sonu was a better dancer (in this song) Rekha was shown the winner, being the traditional heroine.

Of course no comments on the SS and Asha ji jugalbandi!

Yes I remember that song. Sonu was definitely the better dancer. She was also much fitter. Noticed the difference in their dressing in the song. Rekha is almost fully covered and Sonu is really looking like a model unlike Rekha.
The 'Dance of Envy' from Dil To Pagal Hai is another example of a competition but both Karisma + Madhuri did an excellent job. The main heroine has to win of course. smile1.gif
