(Sunil) Amrapali (1966)
This historic drama seemed like all the right things going for it, but was a commercial failure. Vyjayanti Mala was stunningly photographed and I don't think she ever looked this beautiful. She had a chance to display her dancing skills to the fullest, and she does this magnificently. Then there was the unforgettably melodious music of Shankar & Jaikishan. One magnificent score. Very rarely the music director duo strayed away from social dramas to score music for period dramas , Sohrab Modi's "Raj Hath (1956)" comes immediately to mind, but this didn't change a thing for them. Their score was absolutely brilliant and stood the test of time. It is considered today as one of their finest works. Vyjayanti Mala thought this movie was going to be a super hit and when it didn't do well at the box office she was personally disappointed. Later after retiring from the movies, she seriously thought of remaking the movie with Madhuri Dixit playing the lead role. I am not sure what happened but the plans were abandoned. Lata has four solos in this film. All of them are just superbly mellifluous and are simply sweet treasures. Even though they all are very good, I have a personal favorite. The song is "Neel Gagan Ki Chhaaon Mein". A superbly rendered song with Lataji's singing prowess in full display where she modulates her voice so magnificently. An unforgettable listening experience. I am uploading these songs in two back-to-back posts. The first post contains all of the songs from an original soundtrack album. The second post contains a couple of extended version songs. Now for a description of the songs in the first post and the songs themselves ... Attached image(s) ![]() |

Concluding Songs from "Amrapali (1966)" ...
I am uploading here a couple of extended version songs from this film. They both are by the courtesy of the Forum members. Thank you. Both of these songs seem like only have extra music associated with them but no extra words compared to the originals from the CD. Here are these two songs ...

(Amitabh) Chhoti Si Baat (1975)
Basu Chatterjee directed this nice little comedy that gave name recognition to Amol Palekar who went on to make several movies repeating almost the same character successfully over and over again in several comedies. The film itself was based on a 1960 British comedy “School for Scoundrels or How to Win Without Actually Cheating!”. It was remade in 2006. In 1970s several successful TV shows appeared. The story was based on a book by the British author Stephen Potter who scored big with many such humorous books that dealt with how to secure an unfair advantage by employing subtle psychological ploys. Hema Malini, Dharmedra and Amitabh Bacchan made guest appearances in the movie. Amitabh was making simultaneously “Zameer (1975)” for BR. In the scene he appears in this movie, he wears the same clothes that he was wearing in “Zameer”. Also, in the movie a billboard poster of “Zameer” can be seen at a bus stop. There are only three songs in this film but Salilda does a magnificent job of it. All three are real beauties. Here they are … Attached image(s) ![]() |

(Jeetendra) Bhai Ho To Aisa (1972) Here are the songs from this album ... Is Jeetendra wearing lipstick in this poster? Serious question, not kidding... Kind Regards Faraaj Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent. - Victor Hugo There is only one better thing than music - live music. - Jacek Bukowski I hate music, especially when it's played. - Jimmy Durante No good opera plot can be sensible, for people do not sing when they are feeling sensible. - W. H. Auden |

(Jeetendra) Bhai Ho To Aisa (1972) Here are the songs from this album ... Is Jeetendra wearing lipstick in this poster? Serious question, not kidding... It may be the picture. Because in this picture Jeetendra looks a bit chubbier. I always remembered him to be slimmer than this picture suggests. So probably it is the picture. Cheers, S |
