Jivan Ka Yahi Hai Dastur
Pyaar Bina Akela Majabur
Dosti Ko Maane To Sab Dukh Dur
Koi Kaahe Thokar Khaae, Mere Sang Aae...
On the occasion of International Friendship Day that falls on Sunday, August 3 Raaga.Com remembers Bollywood’s black and white classic DOSTI (1964), the movie that redefined friendship between two boys, one blind and the other a cripple.
Till date DOSTI remains the best film dedicated to friendship. Produced and Tarachand Barjatya (Rajshree Pictures) and directed by Satyen Bose the highlight of the movie were its protagonists two young actors Sushil Kumar, who played the role of Ramu, the cripple boy and Sudhir Kumar, the boy who essayed the role of Mohan, the blind boy. Though both the actors made their debuts in the movie yet their performances were so authentic and appealing that the movie became an instant hit despite the missing of the so called necessary ingredient of Bollywood movies like romance, cabaret dance and action
The movie has a simple tale that depicted the sacrifice of a friend for other. Ramu is a brilliant student, who wants to study but destiny makes him cripple and is left to beg on the streets in the cruel city of Mumbai. Here he befriends another ill-fated fellow, Mohan, who is blind and is searching for his sister. To make a living Mohan, who has a good voice sing songs on streets and Ramu who plays harmonica adds glitter to his songs by his music. However the story takes a twist when Mohan learns Ramu’s ambition to study and labors day in and day out to collect money for his examination fees.
The poignant tale of selfless sacrifice added with Laxmikant Pyarelal’s gem of music leaves the viewers mesmerized.
Dosti was amongst the top 10 grosser of 1964 and won several Filmfare awards. It won six awards from seven nominations that it received. The awards included Best Film - Tarachand Barjatya; Best Music Director - Laxmikant Pyarelal; Best Story - Ban Bhatt; Best Dialogue - Govind Moonis; Best Playback Singer - Mohammad Rafi and Best Lyricist - Majrooh Sultanpuri
The movie also participated in the 4th Moscow International Film Festival.
One wonders why filmmakers of today do make a remake of such classic so that today’s generation will be able to watch the classic of yesteryear and feel pride of our art and culture.
I was assigned to write an essay, but I did not have enough time to do it. The deadline was approaching, I just panicked, as I did not know what to do. I started calling all my friends who could help me, but they were all busy. I turned to the copywriting exchange, but no one responded. It was already late at night and I was completely devastated. Quite by chance, I stumbled on grademiners reviews. I told them in detail my whole situation, they listened to me and got the job done a couple of hours later. Thank you very much!
ReplyDeleteI apologize to everyone. I decided to post a review of this blog. But I think they are not always really succesful and can dream of meetings with a girl even though the interface doesn't cool. I know some dating websites. But when I find a service, like russian mail order brides, I was happy to be surprised, because it is not the architecture of this network. This site seems to be very smart, it was obviously successful and its interface is very simple. Each consumer is fully understood.
ReplyDeleteMany believe that the latin wives only finds vulnerable individuals on the Internet. But bride finding services are not consistent with this since individuals might use their services on a banal basis since the time to interact alive because of employment is insufficient.
