A Twitter user shared an edited clip from Doordarshan's Umeed and wrote, "Shah Rukh Khan (SRK) featured in a film Umeed (1989) before he became famous. SRK played a banker struggling to get settled in a village after his transfer there as a manager. Web show Panchayat gave us a dj vu of this plot. Can you draw parallels?" In the clip, a dishevelled Shah Rukh plays a young bank employee Anand Gupta trying to find his new post. It's located out in the middle of nowhere, with none of the urban perks. As he get introduced to the basic layout, he has to figure out a plan forward.
Filmmaker Sudhir Mishra also shared the clip and added, "Umeed is by Saeed Mirza, Aziz Mirza and Kundan Shah." Both filmmakers had major influences on the actor's career. Aziz later made the films Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, Yes Boss, Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani and Chalte Chalte with Shah Rukh. Kundan made Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa with Shah Rukh.
The award-winning series Panchayat has also been praised for similar storylines as actor Jitendra Kumar plays a recent engineering graduate Abhishek Tripathi who is stationed as secretary of a Gram panchayat in Phulera, Uttar Pradesh. Created by The Viral Fever, the series also stars Neena Gupta, Raghubir Yadav, Faisal Malik and Chandan Roy as members of the village who help out Abhishek as he tries to handle his responsibilities and adjust to rural life.
The film has a hit music by Ravi and lyrics by Shakeel Badayuni with song like Mujhe Ishq Hai Tujh Hi Se sung by Mohammed Rafi becoming all-time hit.[2] In a rare instance, Ravi, the music director sang two of the songs too in the movie.
Shah Rukh Khan needs no introduction. From his iconic "Rahul, naam toh suna hoga" dialogue in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge to his role as Bauua Singh in Zero, SRK has always entertained his fans with his acting skills. However, did you know that before becoming the Badshah of Bollywood, he featured in a 1989 TV movie called Umeed?
Umeed revolves around the life of a banker and his struggle to make things right for the people as well as the organization. The role of the banker was played by Shah Rukh Khan in one of his earliest works. This short film might not be as popular as his other hits, but it still holds a special place in the hearts of his die-hard fans.
Recently, a video has been trending on social media where someone drew parallels between Umeed and the Amazon Prime Video web-series, Panchayat, starring Jitendra Kumar. To be fair, both of them have a lot of similarities.
Fans were quick to respond and agree with her observation. Many pointed out the similarities between the two plots and how they both dealt with the struggles of adapting to rural life. It's not every day that you find a connection between a 1989 TV movie and a 2020 web series, but when it's SRK, nothing is impossible.
It's fascinating to see how a TV movie from over three decades ago has managed to draw comparisons with a popular web series of today. Shah Rukh Khan's performance in Umeed may not have been the one that catapulted him to superstardom, but it's a reminder of his versatility and range as an actor.
It's also a testament to the fact that good storytelling can stand the test of time and continue to inspire and influence new works. Whether you're a die-hard SRK fan or a casual viewer, Umeed is definitely worth checking out to see the early beginnings of one of Bollywood's biggest names.
