(Hema) Barood (1976)

This was one of Burmanda's last movies. Suffering from ill health he still managed to take a few assignments. The movie made by Pramod Chakravarty was shot extensively on foreign locales. Inspite of few good songs and exotic locales, the movie didn't click with the audience. Hema Malini and Dharmendra made a guest appearance in this film.

Here are the songs from an original soundtrack album ...

(Saira) Faisla (1988)

Saira who made such a splash with the beautiful musical in her debut movie "Junglee" in 1961, appeared in only 43 movies. This film, "Faisla", is her last appearance in a film. In between "Junglee" and "Faisla" she appeared in several good movies but never made an impression that she will be remembered as a serious actress.

Here are the songs from Saira's last movie, "Faisla", all thanks to the courtesy of the Forum members ...

(Vyjayanti) Sangam (1964)

This movie is an example of the magic of Raj Kapoor. He takes a hackneyed and an ordinary story and turns it into a blockbuster. It had all the glitter and luster but no warmth to show for. It was photographed in dazzling Technicolor. It was shot in various locations in Europe starting a trend in Hindi movies that is in full vogue today. It had some magnificent music by the incomparable duo Shankar & Jaikishan. It had a pretty lady in the lead role. You mix all this into a potion and that spells movie magic.

Apparently Raj Kapoor waited to make this movie for a long time. When he decided to make it, he had Dilip Kumar in mind as part of the love triangle. Dilip didn't forget what happened with Mehboob Khan's "Andaz (1949)". Also, Vyjayanti Mala who was one of Dilip’s favorite heroines, was slowly drifting away from him. Raj recognizing this immediately had her sign to play his leading lady in the movie. The net result was that Dilip decided to not accept the offer. The role eventually went to Rajendra Kumar.

Raj earlier starred with Vyjayanti in “Nazrana (1961)” which enjoyed only a limited success. But opposite Vyjayanti’s youthful looking figure, Raj looked old (ironically the hit song from this movie itself “Main Kaa Karoon Raam Mujhe Buddha Mil Gaya” sounds so appropriate here), completely out of shape, and even appeared tired in some of the scenes. But there was so much gloss over the product that people really didn’t get to see what is all that litter beneath all that shiny glitter.

I am uploading the songs from this beautiful album in four back-to-back posts. The first two posts contain all of the songs from the film. The third post contains various specials. Finally, the fourth post contains some extended version songs.

Now for the details of the songs in the first post and the songs themselves …

Some Specials of "Sangam (1964)" ...

In this post I am uploading three specials. The song "Dost Dost Na Raha" with Yash Chopra's introduction is taken from the album "Legends: Raj Kapoor - The Showman (CD4)". For the next song "Mere Mann Ke Ganga", Raj Kapoor himself gives an introduction. This one also is taken from the same album. The third and the final special is taken from the very same album. It is the song "O Mere Sanam" with an introduction by Vyjayanti Mala.

These three specials ...
