Jaireth Subhash
name some hindi films in which scooters and/or motorbikes have been
used to set scenes such as songs, romance etc.

That's avery interesting topic. I guess one of the most popularscooter
songs in Hindi films is "Ye dosti hum nahin chodenge" in Sholay. Many
more are there. Can't think of them now.

Another very popular song on mobike is 'Zindahi ek safar hai suhaanaa',
picturised on Rajesh khanna and hema malini from movie Andaaz (also
starring shammi kapoor). Perfect Yodelling by .. ,no points for guessing.

POssibly one of the most popular incidents of the usage of a motorcycle
was the use of a Rajdoot GTS (remember those little things?) by Rishi Kapoor
to elope with Dimple in Bobby.
The bike became wildly popular theerafter, being in particular demand
with romantic wannabees.
In some parts of the country, it was even referred to as the Rajdoot Bobby.
BTW, I was surprised to see Bobby missing from the list of all time
great movies. It was a mass hysteria phenomenon in its time.

In India, we distinguish between scooters and motorcycles or mobikes. Most
of the followups that you have received are about motorcycles. Please
specify which one you are referring to ...
As for scooters( by Indian standards), me remembers a song in a Farooque
Shaikh movie but right now I can't remember the film name or the song name.

Yes, the 2 songs mentioned above are 2 of my favorite Amitabh-picturized songs.
Another great motorcycle song is picturized on that dork Rajech Khanna :
"Zindagi Ek Safar He Suhana ..." from Andaz.

Ya, in Faridabad (where it was made, and other Rajdoots also, and from where
I am), everyone used to call it Bobby motorcycle. If you said Rajdoot, it
meant the regular model. Another reason why young guys wanted it more than
the other Rajdoot model was because the regular Rajdoot model was used by
the "Doodhiyaas" to distribute the "low fat milk" ;-) so it was not as cool
(so to speak) as to drive a Bobby. Remember there were no 100cc craze at that
time. Of course I used to drive one of the best bikes, yezdi, remember some
people had there yezdi label reversed so that it read ipzah ;-)
Anyway, I tend to digress, the song zindagi ik safar... was filmed on jawa
(yezdi) motorcycle. You can find songs on scooters probably more in late 70's
upto mid 80's movies, that's when scooters became more popular, I think.
Farooq Shaikh in (I' can't remember the name right now) had a jawa (remember
the song "kaali ghodi dwar khadi". While Amitabh had an Enfield in Muqaddar
ka sikander in "rote hue aate hai sab".
Can't remember anyone driving a scooter in any songs, probably there was a
Farooq Shaikh movie, I vaguely remember.

Other songs I can think of are:
1. Dahleez ( Jackie, meenakshi) - Can't remember the wording (Mahemdra Kapoor
and anuradha Paudwal, I think)
2. Ek Jaan Hai Hum ( Farooque Shaik ) - I think it is the title song.
3. Deewana Tera Deewana ( Kabhi Haan Kabhi naa) - Partly on motorcycle.
Just a note; this is just about scooter songs; so kindly refrain from calling
actors dorks etc. if you don't like them just keep it to yourself and if
you want send a mail with the title - ---- is a dork; so that guys who are
least interested in this sort of crap can be spared of it.

Here's one example of each:
Bicycles: There's already another thread following these...
Horseback: Rakesh Roshan --- Aaj un se pahli mulaaqat hogi...
Car: Navin Nischol --- Tum jo mil gaye ho...
Bus: Amitabh in Bombay to Goa --- Dekha na haay re...
Train: Rishi in Zamane ko dikhaana hai --- Hoga tum se pyaara kaun
Ghodagaadi: Zillions of Shammi Kapoor songs (Tum sa naheen dekha etc etc etc)
Bailgaadi: Jeetubhai, Asha Parekh in Caravan --- Goriya kahaan tera des re...
Boat: Here there is a minor classifiction
Chhotu naav: Rajesh K in 'chingaari koi bhaDke',
Joy Mukerji in 'Dil tera deewana hai sanam' and so on...
Big boats: Parveen Babi in 'Raat baaki, baat baaki' --- Namak Halaal
"One for the road" is indeed too little for apna fillum hero-heroines to
sing... :-)

Well the movie is a remake of a Telugu film : Maro Charitra. The Hindi version
stars Kamal Hassan and Rati Agnihotri. In the days when Amitabh ruled as the
"Angry Young Man", this movie was a love story ... of a South Indian fella
fallin in love with a Mumbaite (forgot !). Had really good songs. Directed by
K.Balachander (Tamil) who also made Maro Charitra. And of course it had Kamal !

replies will appear. . Many usenet veterans with wisdom gained from
years of reading usenet articles have asserted that the appropriate
newsgroups for discussion of Indian films are those within the
rec.arts.movies hierarchy and feel that there is no need for an indian
movie newsgroup inspite of having been demonstrated the need for it.
Hence this article is
being xposted to that hierarchy also. Be sure to include the rec.arts.movie
newsgroups in all future articles related to Indian *MOVIES*.

Are there any Tamil/Telugu movies with scooter and sidecarriage action
scenes or psuedo stunts like in Sholay? Can junta name some
movies with really large number of vehicles trashed in action scenes.
On a totally unrelated note, are there any actors besides Amitabh who
have come close to death ("Coolie") because of accidents while
"acting"? (Did he really come close to death or was it a publicity
stunt?). I have heard it mentioned of some villain (Pran or Ajit?)
losing a toe while doing a "railway track" stunt. Any truth to this?

I think Dharamendra was said to have been attacked by the lion/tiger in
one of his movies (he was a shikari in that). Nargis was rescued by
Sunil Dutt in the shooting of Mother India (after which they got
married). in Coolie, Big B did get seriously injured by the edge of the
table or some other furniture. I still remember in high school, his
address in hospital was floating around and that one could send cards
to his hospital address. etc etc.
Railway track thing, in YaadoN ki Baaraat, Ajit gets killed finally
with his leg in the railway track when they change the track.

One account I have heard: While shooting the famous fire sequence for
Mother India, Nargis got caught in a potentially dangerous situation and
Sunil Dutt risked injury to himself to get her out. It's supposed to be
the starting point for the romance which led to perhaps one of the
happiest industry marriages. I have no idea whether the anecdote is
apocryphal.

There was a Malayalam Superstar Hero called Jeyan. When he was
the No.1 in Malayalam he used to act in very risky scenes. Finally in a
helicopter fight scene, he was holding the bottom of the flying
helicopter on both hands. Somehow, the helocipter collapsed and he lost
his life.
Beside this one, there are thousands of stunt actors who are
badly injuried or lost parts of their body and there are hundreds who
died. But it becomes big news only when the accident involves some big
hero or heroines.
You might remember Sanjay Khan who was badly injured in a fire
accident in the shooting of the TV serial Tipu Sultan.

I can add only a few:
5. Missamma (Telugu) --> Missiamma (Tamil) --> Miss Mary (Hindi)
(Film with Gemini Ganesan and Padmini? in Hindi,
which was originally N.T. Rama Rao (I think) and B. Saroja Devi?
in Telugu and Gemini Ganesan (I am sure) and B. Saroja Devi? in
Telugu/Tamil. Has a nice song by Rafi:
'yeh mard baD.e dil sar
baD.e be_dard chalo ji manaa~~
mardoN ka phir bhi GHulaam hai zamaanaa!)
6. PaataLa Bhairavi (Telugu) && something in Tamil --> Paatal
Bhairavi (Hindi) (Original film made by V. Chakrapani/B. Nagi
Reddi for Vijaya Vauhini Productions. Starred Gemini Ganesan in
Tamil and NTR in Telugu. Remade "shadily" in Hindi, starring
Jeetubhai and Jayaprada. I don't know the actresses in
Tamil/Telugu.)
7. "Something" Simhaasanamu (Telugu *ing Krishna) --> Singhaasan
(starring Jeetubhai).
There's also a Telugu Original of the Hindi film which has the song
'jeet jaayeNge ham jeet jaayeNge ham
tu agar saNg hai ...
zindagi har qadam ik nayi jang hai"
Is the Hindi film called "Meri Jung?"
The hero in the Telugu original is Sobhan Babu ["husband" of Puratchi
Thalaivi Selvi (Miss) Dr. J. Jayalalitha :) :) :)] and there's a song
which has the same tune as the above. The film has some strange name,
which I can't remember for the heaven of me! Ask in
Soc.Culture.Indian.Telugu or whatever is the Telugu newsgroup.
Actually, there's a lot of Telugu films that were remade in Hindi
during the 1985-1987 period. It'll be along list, methinks, that
Pintu has started.

"Missiamma" (Tamil) starred Gemini Ganeshan and Savitri and "Missamma"
(Telugu) starred NTR and Savitri. The Hindi remake "Miss Mary"
starred Gemini Ganeshan (!) and Meena Kumari. (What a let down
when compared to Savitri!) The music for the Hindi version is
by Hemant Kumar even though some scores have been directly lifted
from the Tamil/Telugu version. The music for the Tamil/Telugu
version is by Ghantasala. (Am I right?)
Anyway, I really like the songs in the Hindi version too, here's
the list:
1) o raat ke musaafir (Rafi, Lata)
2) so gaya saara zamana (Lata)
3) brindavan ka krishna kanhaiya (Rafi, Lata & chorus)
4) sakhi ri sun boli (Asha, Lata)
5) yeh mard baDe (Rafi)
6) gaana na aaya bajaana na aaya (KK)
7) yeh mard baDe (Lata)
8) saiyan lag ja gale (Lata)
"brindavan ka krishna kanhaiya" is a direct adaptation of Tamil
"brindavanamum nandakumaranum" and "O raat ke musaafir" is a
not-so-obvious adaptation of "vaaraayo vennillaave kelaayo engal
kadhaye". I do not have the list of songs in Tamil, but I am sure
Preetham has it, so kindly oblige!

I remember there was a Hindi movie starring Farooq Shaikh and Mausami
Chatterjee and also Geeta Siddarth ( and Dr.Sriram Lagoo too ? ). The story
is that Mausami is daughter of a devdasi (Geeta) and Farooq has come to
same village to his "mama" ( Dr. Lagoo )'s place. I have seen a regional
movie on ditto story but forgetting what was the language. Forgetting the
name of Hindi version also, although it had some good songs.
Also, "Jawani Zindabad" was a remake of some South Indian movie. And
"Saaheb" too, I guess.
Add to the list:
(Tamil)Nayakan -> Dayavan
(Tamil)Agninakshtaram -> Vansh
(Punjabi) Haq meher - Sanam Bewfa
(Marathi) Maaherchi Saadi - Saajan ka ghar
-Kuntal.

Nope. I think the MD is S.Rajeswara Rao. Hemant Kumar directly lifted the
tune for "Brindavan ka krishna kanhaiyaa" but he acknowledged the
original MD and is supposed to have said " The tune was so good that I
felt any tampering with it would be an insult to music"
: Anyway, I really like the songs in the Hindi version too, here's
: the list:
Me too. I like all the songs except "gaana na aaya"(no offense meant to
KKKlaners). I fell this song is really out of place among the other
melodius songs in the movie. I esp like the childlike voice of Lata in the
song "So gayaa saara zamaana", Lata's voice in this songs reminds me of
NoorJehan in the song "Saanwariyaa, tohe koi pukare"(One of Sami's, Vish's
and my favorites of NoorJehan)

Well, yes, Jamuna did act in the movie, but SAVITRI _IS_ "MISSIAMMA".
It is Savitri's role that Meena Kumari plays in the Hindi version.
I think Jamuna retained her role in Hindi also. Savitri's acting
is brilliant. In the Telugu version A.Nageshwara Rao played the
second hero (Jamuna's partner, so to say). I do not remember the name
of the person who played that part in Tamil.
One of my friends once told me that this movie is far ahead of
its times, and I tend to agree. It is not often that a movie
in those times dealt with a working woman who took her career
seriously and intercaste marriage (even though Gemini and Savitri
were not actually married). The movie itself is not grim or serious
but it is delightfully humorous and the music is excellent! All in
all, this movie is a gem and definitely worth watching.

Jeetendra made a lot of movies based on Telugu films (and Tamil?)
during this period, if I recall correctly. He had even purchased
a large house in Madras because he spent a lot of time there.
Unfortunately, most of the movies were so forgettable (although
moderately successful, mainly due to the female lead ; ha!!) that
I don't remember most of the names. I *do* remember the movie
where he sang with Sridevi 'Ice-cream khaaogii, Naa naa!!'. Was it
called Himmatwala? Can someone recall the Telugu original of this
movie, and others of this genre?
What about "...something Chaudhary" (*ing Nageswara Rao)? Wasn't
the Hindi remake of that *ing Jeetubhai called Chaudhary Saahab?
Also, did Yamagola's Hindi version have the same name? I recall
Naarad being played by Asrani in the Hindi version (Chandramohan
in the Telugu version....). Boy, have I forgotten a lot of stuff?!!

Want me to name some of movies made in that period, starring Jeetendra ?
Himmatwala, Justice Chaudhury, Mavaali, Tohfa, Hoshiyar, Sarfarosh,
Patal Bhairavi, Akalmand, Kaidi, Maqsad, Singhasan ...
and I am sure some are still left out.
BTW, "Ice-cream khaaogii" was in Justice Chaudhury. Himmatwala included
the song "NainoN maiN sapna...".
Himmatwala - Jeetu, Sri ( NainoN maiN sapna sapnoN maiN sajna )
Justice Chaudhury - Jeetu, Sri, Hema ( Pyar ki gaaDi tej chalao )
Mavaali - Jeetu, Sri, JayaP ( ZonpaDi maiN charpai )
Tohfa - Jeetu, Sri, JayaP ( Pyar ka tohfa tera )
Hoshiyar - Jeetu, Sri ( Gussa chhoD dil na toD bigaD na ghaDi ghaDi)
Sarfarosh - Jeetu, Sri ( Sridevi o Sridevi Sridevi tu nahiN )
Patal Bhairavi - Jeetu, Jaya, Dimple ( Dimple's song - chumma chumma )
Akalmand - Jeetu, ???
Kaidi - Jeetu, Madhavi ( Bango bango bango )
Maqsad - Jeetu, RaheshK, Sri, JayaP ( Devi o devi tu banja meri biwi )
Singhasan - Jeetu, ???
In almost all movies Bappi Lahiri was the MD and many of these songs
are sung by KK.

Sorry, that was meant to be Rajesh Khanna. It was funny seeing Sridevi
paired with him. Another such movie where these two were together was
Masterji.

As far as memory serves me right the name of the movie was Justice
Chaudhry which strangely enough you cited just in the next line :)
