“मैं लेखक हूँ, लेखक”।
The year – 1956. The film – that zany, crazy, fun and pathos filled runaway hit titled ‘Funtoosh’. Remembered today for a fantastic portfolio of songs. And a very sensitive and effective performance by Dev Anand.
The film has a noisy opening inside a mental asylum. Dev Anand, one of the inmates, is being released to the outside world. He knows himself, as do others, only as ‘funtoosh’. Apparently he has endeared everyone in that blessed place, for when he leaves, everyone offers him a gift, piling him and his pockets with trinkets, small tokens, a hat, a pair of sunglasses, garlands, rings and what not. From a world that is upside down compared to the outside, ‘funtoosh’ makes a grand exit on a tricycle, smoking a pipe.
Of course his level of awareness and understanding does not include the fact that the outside world is very much the ‘downside up’ version of the world inside the asylum. With inherent goodness and simplicity of a person sans memories, it does not take long for the world outside and its people, to relieve him of all those gifts. Folks will dearly remember the song “Ae Meri Topi Palat Ke Aa”, that is presented during this sequence of events.
In a matter of a few hours, and about 15 minutes into the film, ‘funtoosh’ is bereft of all his possessions, the gifts that were given to him by his friends from another ‘home’ that he had to leave. Evening is descending, and so is his mood – crestfallen. Dejected and doleful, he is sitting on the steps outside an Irani type restaurant, with a pen in his hand, his last worldly possession other than the clothes on his back. He is contemplating to write a letter to his friends back in the asylum, and he is visibly struggling to put down any words.
A bespectacled young man, carrying a couple of books under his arm, and lighting a cigarette, comes out of the restaurant, and pauses next to ‘funtoosh’, watching him trying to articulate something to write. He notices that ‘funtoosh’ has a postal envelop, but he does not have a piece of paper. He draws out a plain sheet from the notebooks he is carrying, and hands over to ‘funtoosh’.
‘funtoosh’ begins writing – “मेरे प्यारे दोस्तो”, (my dear friends) then pauses for a few seconds, then he draws a large question mark on the paper and signs it with a flourish – ‘funtoosh’. The bespectacled young man asks, “बस?” (that’s all?). ‘funtoosh’ replies – “इतना ही काफी है। ज़िंदगी के दो हिस्से होते हैं, एक सवाल, दूसरा जवाब। मैंने सवाल लिख दिया है, वो जवाब लिखेंगे” (I have written the question, they will write an answer).
Immediately the young man opens his notebook again, and starts to note down this philosophical gem. ‘funtoosh’ asks him why is he noting this down. The young man replies – “काम आएगा। मैं लेखक हूं, लेखक” (it will come handy, I am a writer). ‘funtoosh’ asks him so what does he write. The young man say – stories, about people like you. ‘funtoosh’ asks him whether he will write a story about him – ‘funtoosh’. The young man says – yes, why not. ‘funtoosh’, apparently is so moved by this interest and attention on part of the young man, he caps the pen in his hand, and forces it into the shirt pocket of the young man, saying that if he writes about him, then he should write using this pen.
And with that, it is the last of his worldly possession that ‘funtosh’ gives away to this young man.
The name if this young man does not appear anywhere in the credits, not even as a guest artist. At 22 years of age, this, in all probabilities, is Vijay Anand’s very first screen appearance. Not that his name has not appeared in credits before. Two years earlier, in 1954, when ‘Taxi Driver’, another Navketan hit was released, his name was introduced to the viewing public for the first time, in the role of the story and dialogue writer. But in this film, where he makes his first appearance on screen, his presence is not officially acknowledged anywhere.
Remembering Goldie – Vijay Anand – on the 84th anniversary of his birth today – 22nd January. A multi-faceted artist who has been an actor, producer, director, story and dialogue writer, film editor, and even sound editor.
In a manner of speaking, maybe a personal trait for keeping a low profile. For as we see his career develop, we find him making such cameo appearances in his films, completely unannounced. Folks will recall that Alfred Hitchcock used this device to make a fleeting appearance in his own films, and the viewers started to look forward to his films for, amongst other cinematic interests, to locate where does he make his signature cameo appearance.
Same with Vijay Anand – he also makes cameo appearances in his films. And he made another refinement on top of the Hitchcock-ian style of making a physical appearance. In place of making a physical appearance, he would lend his voice to a bit artist in a stray one-off dialogue, where one would least expect him to be. In the song “Pyaar Ka Raag Suno. . .” (‘Tere Ghar Ke Saamne’ – 1963), he is one of folks that Dev Anand and Nutan encounter, as they are serenading in the staircase of Qutab Minar. And then, in film ‘Guide’ (1965), his voice is heard midway through the film, as an absolute non-entity is enquiring about Raju Guide from the attendant at the book stall on the Udaipur railway station platform. I had at one time prepared a brief list of such appearances, but I am not able to locate it right at this moment. I will update this para, as soon as I am able to locate it or re-gather that info.
When we talk of great artists and their creations, we generally wonder – why is it that they did not produce more. Yes, some artists are very prolific. But then, we must also realize that most works of art, especially cinema, takes a fair amount of time to complete one creation. Yes, Vijay Anand’s career seems to be less prolific in comparison. It seems to have its stop and start times. In 1954, he is scripting ‘Taxi Driver’. In 1955, his name appears in the star cast of the film ‘Joru Ka Bhai’, a comedy film made by Chetan Anand, his elder brother. In 1956, he is makes a cameo in ‘Funtoosh’. In 1957, he makes his debut appearance in a lead role – as the hero opposite to Shakila in the film ‘Agra Road’. 1957 also sees the release of ‘Nau Do Gyaarah’, his debut directorial venture. Hmmm. . . quite a watershed year for his career, making debut both as a lead actor and a director in the same year.
Then, a gap of couple of years and we see all the three Anand brother appear together in the 1960 social hit film ‘Kaala Bazaar’. Vijay Anand plays the first love interest of Waheeda Rehman, who has gone to France for higher studies, and returns to India during the second half of the film, when an uncertain relationship is developing between Dev Anand and Waheeda Rehman. And yes, he is also the director of this film.
Next we hear about him in 1963 – as the director of the film ‘Tere Ghar Ke Saamne’. In between, there is unconfirmed statements that he also was the shadow director of the film ‘Hum Dono’ in 1961.
1964 sees the release of Chetan Anand’s ‘Haqeeqat’ – he makes appearance as one of the soldiers in the army unit that is on the China border, and gets trapped in the winter snow as weather turns belligerent. He is present in the qawwali – “Ho Ke Majboor Mujhe Us Ne Bhulaaya Hoga”.
Come 1965, and we see the zenith of his creative career. Navketan’s ‘Guide’ is released, to a critical acclaim that predicts this film to be the best film Hindi cinema has produced. The prediction stands true today – more than fifty years later. The original author of the story, RK Narayan, was not too happy with the outcome, wherein Dev and Vijay had made some significant modifications to the original storyline. But the outcome of the final product says everything. The film is a grand tour of the human life, of the transformation of a soul from an expert guide, to a conman, to a sinner, and then on to a realization that takes the soul to horizons that are way beyond the mundane existence of this world, this life. The film remains to be seen yet once again, no matter how many times one has seen it. And the one man behind it – Vijay Anand. The performance he extracted from Dev Anand, is a remarkable achievement that even Dev was never able to replicate in his entire career.
And the songs of ‘Guide’ – each one of them deserves to be dealt with in separate individual write ups. The visualization and cinematography of “Aaj Phir Jeene Ki Tamanna Hai” can simply not be bettered. The top shot of the lead pair in the rear of truck full of hay, or the low angle tracking shot of Waheeda Rehman’s feet as she is walking on the walls of the fort. Or the superb capture of the sunset ambience in “Tere Mere Sapne Ab Ek Rang Hain” – a song that was completed in an unbelievable 4 shots. When I read this and then went back to review the video of this song again, it is now even a more staggering experience with this knowledge – just 4 shots. And more than just the songs – that have been viewed and viewed and viewed again and again, and written about and discussed and critiqued to no end – I would like to draw the attention of the readers to another musical piece, which keeps to just being short of a full fledged song. The snake dance in the village of snake charmers. The visualization, the settings, the lighting, everything about this piece is just out of this world – and I dare say, this would be probably the best on screen dance performance of Waheeda Rehman.
In 1966, we see his directorial capabilities reach a plane very different from ‘Guide’. The release is ‘Teesri Manzil’ directed by him. An edge-of-the-seat thriller cum comedy film, one sees Vijay’s song picturization capabilities touch even newer heights of perfection. If the songs of ‘Guide’ were about a traditional view of the life of this sub-continent, the songs of ‘Teesri Manzil’ brought in a rock element that had never been presented before as such. And no, I am not going to discuss the song details here – they are so much a favorite of every music lover, that I may just be holding a candle to what everyone already knows and believes in.
1967 – and another brilliant caper is in the making – ‘Jewel Thief’. Another taut thriller, another musical bonanza, and another set of memorable songs picturized so elegantly that it defies description to do justice. Yesterday I had written about the dance song of Jaishree T (from the film ‘Tere Mere Sapne’), with the comment that it was probably the best on screen performance for her. I make a same kind of statement today – the song “Hothon Mein Aisi Baat. . .” has been acknowledged as the best dance performance of Vijayantimala in her entire career.
1968 – and we don’t know what to say about his film this year. He directed the Dev Anand – Asha Parekh starrer ‘Kahin Aur Chal’, produced under a non-descript banner titled JM Productions. The film seems to have sunk without a trace. The stories that emerged later were that this film was produced with the express requirement to show losses, for some tax manipulations. The producers withdrew the film almost as soon as it was released, to claim losses. The sad part is that the film has completely disappeared. It is known that even Dev Anand himself was searching for it. It was not a Navketan production so he had no control over its ownership. Nothing more is noted anywhere about this film, except that its songs are available. This curious situation kind of makes this Vijay Anand directed film as one of the most sought after cinematic assets in the industry.
After another gap of an unlettered 1969, Vijay is back in 1970, with the news of another blockbuster hit of a comic thriller – ‘Johnny Mera Naam’. Coming on the heels of ‘Teesri Manzil’ and ‘Jewel Thief’, this another taut thriller demonstrated Vijay going from strength to strength, and also continuing to refine his uncanny handling of on screen song presentations. The songs of this film are simply stupendous – the picturization of “Pal Bhar Ke Liye. . .” is unimaginably innovative and yes, very sweet – “Pal Bhar Ke Pyaar Pe Nisaar Saara Jeevan. . .”. And then, yes, the handling of a worried Hema Malini being followed by the police in the song “O Mere Raja. . . Waada To Nibhaaya”.
So far, so good. But then it gets even better in 1971. Moving away from the thriller genre, Vijay Anand directs ‘Tere Mere Sapne’ – which maybe barring ‘Guide’, is probably the most sensitive and a most mature handling of a theme of family sentiments, and human failings and triumphs. I was in school when this film was released. And in my haughtiness of the amateur school time discussions about human psychology and social issues, I thought very well of this film, given of course some ‘critical defects’ that I believed I must communicate to the director, if I could. That haughtiness and the thought of those errors is long past. And, as with a handful of some very excellent films, this is one which has a new learning to give every time one views it. I have seen this film every so often again and again, and simply do not get tired of it. The multi- faceted pushes and pulls that are experienced in real life, are so well depicted in this epitome production about human life.
I clearly remember the discussion I had with my school friends after seeing this film. I commented (quite amateurishly I must add) that seeing the last scene gives the feeling as if having a child was the only objective of this film. Over the years, I have not only regretted that statement, but have progressively revised my understanding as to what this film is trying to portray and achieve.
And then, just about this juncture, it seems as if Vijay has lost the luster and the touch. His personal inclinations seem to be distracting him more into his inside world. And the personal relationships that he went into and came out, did not help either. He was drawn towards Osho (Bhagwan Rajneesh). He got married to Loveleen, one of the followers of Osho. The marriage did not last long, and was dissolved. Some time passes and he confounds the world with his next marital alliance. He stirred a controversy of Himalayan proportions by marrying the daughter of his own sister.
As these personal travails haunt him, he continues to create more films but then how do you write about them after having talked about his creations till the 1971. No, I am not demeaning the value in the films that follow ‘Tere Mere Sapne’. A sampler follows – ‘Blackmail’ and ‘Chhupa Rustom’ in 1973, ‘Bullet’ in 1976, ‘Ek Do Teen Char’ and Ram Balram in 1980, ‘Rajput’ in 1982, ‘Hum Rahe Na Hum’ in 1984, and ‘Main Tere Liye’ in 1986. All these are as a director. As an actor anther list to talk about – ‘Double Cross’ and ‘Hindustan Ki Kasam’ in 1973, ‘Chor Chor’ and ‘Kora Kaagaz’ in 1974, ‘Main Tulsi Tere Aangan Ki’ in 1978, and ‘Ghunghroo Ki Awaaz’ in 1981. We continue to see glimmers of his old self – the song ‘Pal Pal Dil Ke Paas. . .” in ‘Blakcmail’, and “Jo Main Hota Ik Toota Taara. . .” in ‘Chhupa Rustom’, are a throwback reminder of his prowess as a song director. His performances in ‘Kora Kaagaz’, ‘Main Tulsi Tere Aangan Ki’ and ‘Chor Chor’ are impressive and invite kudos. But with all this even, he seemed to have descended into the valleys. The sparkle that was Vijay – seemed to have been snuffed out.
In 2004 when he passed away, he was preparing to direct another Navketan film for Dev Anand – ‘Jaana Nahin Dil Se Door’. Apparently one (or more songs) were recorded. But it seems that the film was shelved when Vijay passed away. There is no mention of this film on Navketan’s web site.
I feel I have so much to write about this enigma that was Vijay Anand, but I will save that for another post. Coming to the song for today. And yes, by the way, we are Yippeee-ing the film ‘Tere Mere Sapne’ with this post. ![🙂]()
Just this film itself evokes such emotions and memories that I wish I had posted all the songs of this film, and written about them. In the post yesterday, I had written about the celebration dance song, and somewhat of the story till that point in the film. Moving forward from there – the humble and grateful Phoolchand (role played by Sapru) gives a personal gift to Dr. Anand for having saved his newborn child’s life. It is a note of one hundred rupees. Mrs. Prasad (role played by Paro, the wife of Dr. Prasad (role played by Mahesh Kaul), the head of the hospital), takes an offense to this, and demands that Anand hands over that gift to her. Anand refuses. He decides to take on another job at another hospital in a village close by, rather than succumb to Mrs. Prasad’s demands for something he, at that point in time, feels very emotionally attached with.
Anand moves to the other hospital. The expected marriage of Nisha and Anand takes place. Nisha is pregnant for the first time. A mishap occurs. While at the market place, she is hit by a car that is recklessly being driven by an inebriated Seth Madhochand (role played by Premnath), the owner of the mining company in the village. Nisha loses the child. The rich Seth prevails over the judicial system, gets acquitted after producing tutored witnesses to establish that the accident was Nisha’s fault. Anand’s world is shattered. He leaves the village and returns to Bombay. In the starting scene of the film, one of his batch mates is pleading with him not to go the village. Now Anand returns to the same friend, who introduces him to others in the profession, and Anand, capable as he is, becomes one of the most sought after doctors in the city.
Affluence follows, no matter that Nisha’s life becomes a depressing bore. But Anand is so busy making money that he even overlooks the personal issues his beloved is going thru. Back in the village, the senior doctor, Dr. Prasad passes away. The hospital is renovated and expanded, and is to be re-inaugurated as a memorial to Dr. Prasad. Jagan (Dr. Jagannath Kothari, role played by Vijay Anand) comes to Bombay, seeking to convince Anand to return to the village hospital. Anand, flying high with the euphoria of financial success, declines the invite. Jagan returns to the village empty handed.
The day of the inauguration arrives. All arrangements are in place. All the village crowd is collected. But the local leader, who has been invited to do the honors at the inauguration ceremony, is late, with no information as to when he may arrive. At this juncture, I introduce Dr. Bhutani (role played by Agha). Bhutani is the village dentist, apparently the only one in the surrounding 20 some villages. And so a person of quite some eminence. Being in-charge of the ceremonies, he is also panicking with the non-arrival of the chief guest. He complains to Jagan, Jagan tells him to improvise. They enter the pandaal, and seat Mrs. Prasad in the chief guest’s chair. And Bhutani breaks into this song. The crowd present joins in, as does Jagan for the third antaraa, later in the song.
The singing voice is that of Manna Dey, which is lip synced both by Jagan and Bhutani on screen.
An important note about the presentation of this song. Originally, in the film, this song is presented as a three antaraa song, two sung by Bhutani, and one by Jagan. As I went back into the online world to search for this song, I am pleasantly surprised to discover a much longer version of this song, which most probably has been taken from the film’s LP. The person who has uploaded this, has put together this entire song as a single video. For the first three antaraas, he has retained the original footage. For the later three antaraas, he has improvised and done an edit / cut / paste to create additional footage from the original footage. So what we see in this clip is three antaraas of the original footage and three additional antaraas of an edited and spliced together footage. The blips are noticeable, but yet the person has done a fair enough job to make is look like a whole single song.
There is enough said, so I will abstain from typing further. Enjoy this song that tells of the ground realities of the social and political woes in our country. Although dated 1971, all the thoughts expressed in this song are still fully representative of what we are going through in current times. The travails are timeless, it seems.
But regardless, enjoy the song. ![🙂]()
And oh yes, a reminder that with this post, ‘Tere Mere Sapne’ is now a part of yippeee-land on our blog. The details of all the songs posted is given below. Close to ten years it took, given that the first song of this film was posted in November of 2008.

to post here on the blog. Since they are two different occasions, coinciding on the same date, there are two posts from me. So you have to bear with me twice today.
