Intrinsically human, relationship and family oriented Gujarati cinema / films deals with human aspirations and

the one family culture. There can be no turning away from the essential humanity of these Gujarati films.

• 1932 - Narasinh Mehta: Directed by Nanubhai Vakil, the film starred Mohanlala, Marutirao, Master Manhar,

and Miss Mehtab. Of the `Saint film` genre. The first Gujarati film, this was on the life of the saint

Narasinh Mehta who observed a creed that was followed centuries later by Mahatma Gandhi.

He preferred the term Harijan for the people known as untouchables, and his morning hymns

(Prabhatiyan) were especially famous. The film avoided any depiction of miracles.

• 1935 - Ghar Jamai: Directed by Homi Master, the film starred Heera, Jamna, Baby Nurjehan,

Amoo, Alimiya, Jamshedji, and Gulam Rasool. An out-of-work never-do-well is turned out by his

parents, and responds to an advertisement for a `resident son-in-law` (ghar jamai). The film

recounts his escapades and his problematic attitude towards the freedom of women. The

comedy was a major success.

• 1948 - Kariyavar: Directed by Chaturbhuj Doshi, the film starred Dina Sanghvi, Dhulia, Shobha, and

Mulchand Khichdi. A villager (Sanghvi) is willing to put her hand into a container which holds a poisonous

snake - for this will allow her to install a new temple idol. The snake falls in love with the girl and promises to

safeguard her. She loves a gypsy, the villain loves her, and all is sorted out when the villain and another

woman are sacrificed for the village good. The well that had been dug on the snake`s demand had initially

proved dry, but now yields water. This was the first film of Dina Sanghvi (later, Dina Pathak).

• 1948 - Vadilona Vanke: Directed by Ramchandra Thakur, the film starred Motibai, Vasant Nayak, Pratima

Devi, Latabai, Ramesh Vyas, Anant Vin, and Amrit. A film on the conflicts arising from differing needs and

desires. The elder daughter of a retired noblemen was mismatched with a politically-savvy, urbane political

prisoner while the younger daughter was similarly unsuitably married to a worthless man. It takes the death of

the elder son-in-law to put an end to the unhappy situation created by joint families and individuals. The

problems of modernization are the underlying concern of the film.

• 1950 - Gadano Bel: Directed by Ratibhai Punatar, the film starred Nirupa Roy, Dulari, Charubala, Lila Kurle,

Hirabai, Maya Devi, and Manhar Desai. Three persons are all that is left of a large family - the death of the

main breadwinner causes a split as other members choose to take what they can and leave. The house is sold

- these three are left in the care of God, as it were. Based on a play by the Desh Natak Mandali, the film had a

strong realism and reformism.

• 1968 - Leeludi Dharti: Directed by Vallabh Choksi, the film starred Daisy Irani, Mahesh Desai, Kala Shah,

Champsibhai, Nagda and Suvarna Kapadia. A woman accused of being responsible for the village drought

finds herself in the unenviable position of being married to a farmer`s son. A stillborn child adds to her jinxed

aura - circumstances however arrange themselves happily and she finally finds acceptance. The rural world

with its fertility rituals were very well brought out in the film.

• 1971 - Jesal Toral: Directed by Ravindra Dave, the film starred Anupama, Upendra Trivedi, Arvind Trivedi,

Ramesh Mehta and Veljibhai Gajjar. - The Kutchhi legend of a feared dacoit reformed by a god-woman.

Upendra Trivedi gave one of his finest performances as the bandit.

• 1975 - Tanariri: Directed by Chandrakant Sangani, the film starred Sohrab Modi, Kanan Kaushal, Bindu,

Naresh Kumar, Urmila Bhatt, Vishnu Kumar Vyas, Naran Rajgor, and Leela Jariwala. The legendary musician

of the Mughal emperor Akbar`s court, Tansen - his rendition of raag Deepak (the musical notes that create

light and heat) threatens to lead to spontaneous combustion, and he can be saved only by an equally good

rendition of raag Malhar (the musical notes that lead to cloud formation and rain). Akbar`s invitation to the

sisters Tana and Riri is turned down by them because their community - Nagar - has been persecuted by the

emperor. Akbar`s consequent wrath leads finally to the sisters` suicide. The film presents a little known side

Akbar who is usually presented as a consistently benign ruler.

• 1976 - Sonbaini Chundadi: Directed by Girish Manukant, the film starred Dilip Patel, Ranjitraj, Sohil Virani,

Narayan Rajgor, Premshankar Bhatt, Jay Patel, Ashvin Patel, Girija Mitra, Anjana, and Priti Parekh. A young

297

girl is left in the the care of the three of her seven brothers and at the mercy of a

particularly cruel sister-in-law when four of her brothers leave to find work. One of

the four brothers dies and his ghost returns to safeguard the sister. This was the

first cinemascope film of Gujarati cinema.

• 1980 - Bhavni Bhavai: Directed by Ketan Mehta, the film starred Naseeruddin

Shah, Smita Patil, Mohan Gokhale, Om Puri, Dina Pathak, Suhasini Mulay,

Benjamin Gilani, Nimesh Desai, and Gopi Desai. A group of Harijans stop for the

night on their way to the city - story-telling and music follow. Set in the period when

Harijans were forced to walk with a broom on their backs so as to wipe away their

footprints, the story is of a king and his two queens. The birth of an heir rouses the

jealousy of the other queen who wants the baby killed. However, the child survives

and is brought up by a Harijan. The story has two endings - one, a happy one as

told by the story-teller in which the Harijans dig a well to invoke the gods to grant

the king another heir. The Harijans are freed from social tyranny and the

prince can live happily ever after. The other ending, suggested by his

listeners has the well turn out a dud, the beheading of the prince, the

suicide of the one who brought up the prince, and a flood that destroys

the evil king. The film was Mehta`s first as director. It boasted

superlative performances, very fine camerawork, and won two awards -

National Award for Best Feature Film on National Integration, and

another award at the Nantes festival in France.

• 1992 - Hun Hunshi Hunshilal: Directed by Sanjiv Shah, the film

starred Dilip Joshi, Renuka Shahane, Manoj Joshi, Mohan Gokhale,

and Arvind Vaidya. A mysterious breed of mosquitoes has left the

populace bitten and restless - the King-politician requires a scientist to

rid the land of the pests. The scientist and his girlfriend shift allegiance

but they are captured. The girlfriend is able to escape and head out for mosquito land; the scientist is not so

lucky - he is brainwashed. The film sought to be post-modern, but emerged as a forced one - the seamless

flow of plot was lacking.

December 31. The figure compares well with the films released during 1999. However,

The Indian documentary may be traced back to the 'Factual films' or Topicals

as they were called, of Harishchandra Sakharam

Bhatwadekar (Save Dada) who in 1899 shot a

wrestling match and between two well-known

wrestlers Pundalik Dada and Krishna Navi at

Bombay's Hanging Gardens. A short followed this on

the antics of monkeys - the first Indian

'documentaries.' In 1901 he made perhaps the first

Indian newsreel of the public reception accorded to

Ragunath P Paranjpye who had won a special

distinction in Maths at Cambridge and in 1903

covered the great Durbar held in Delhi to celebrate

the coronation of Edward VII.

Initially these 'Factual films' were confined to the

installation functions and weddings of Maharajas,

Dusserah Festivals, day-to-day life of people in

various parts of India, snippets from Parsi Theatre etc. Dadasaheb Phalke though

known as the father of the Indian fiction film did try his hand at this genre of 'Factual

filmmaking.' He even made a documentary Chitrapat Kase Taya Kartat (How Films

are made) in 1917 wherein he showed himself directing the cast, shooting and editing

a film!

In 1920, a newsreel was made of the funeral procession and cremation of Lokmanya

Tilak. Soon general sessions of the Indian National Congress were covered.

HINDUSTAN TIMES

From projecting the Nehruvian idea of nation building and giving the rebel a cause to

candyfloss romances and evolution of parallel cinemas, Bollywood has churned out

thousands of films over the past six decades and has interestingly never followed a

trend.

“The industry has been very dynamic. Over the past 60 years, many good films have

been produced but if we talk about great films, landmark films, we don’t have many.

Nevertheless, we are improving and showing signs of maturity,” said veteran film

scholar Derek Bose.

Though regional cinema has also landed many inspiring films, Bollywood has over

the years become the face of Indian movies with its appeal crossing Indian borders.

Following is the list of 60 Hindi films, which we feel have shaped the film industry of

today:

1. Andaz (1949) Director - Mehboob Khan. Cast - Dilip Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Nargis.

One of the earliest films to probe the complex man-woman relationship. The film is a

dramatic potboiler of India’s post-independence era.

2. Mahal (1949). Director - Kamal Amrohi. Cast - Ashok Kumar, Madhubala. The

earliest well crafted supernatural thriller produced by our film industry.

3. Awara (1951). Director - Raj Kapoor. Cast - Prithviraj Kapoor, Raj Kapoor, Nargis.

One of the earliest blockbusters, the film is an example of how Bollywood was

experimenting with ideas to script success. It narrates the story of a woman accused of

infidelity by her husband and thrown out of her home.

316

4. Do Bigha Zameen (1953). Director - Bimal Roy. Cast - Balraj Sahni, Nirupa Roy.

Bimal Roy sensitively portrays this social drama by narrating the plight of oppressed

and exploited peasants. Balraj’s performance backed by the script and music makes

this film a classic.

5. Devdas (1955). Director - Bimal Roy. Cast - Dilip Kumar, Suchitra Sen,

Vyjanthimala. Saratchandra Chatterjee’s classic tragedy was excellently adapted in

this film, which narrates the story of a self-absorbed youth in search of love.

6. Mother India (1957). Director - Mehboob Khan. Cast - Sunil Dutt, Nargis. A

gripping depiction of the condition of rural women in India, the film depicts how a

woman has to fight oppression day after day.

7. Pyaasa (1957). Director - Guru Dutt. Cast - Guru Dutt, Mala Sinha, Waheeda

Rehman. Guru Dutt was one director who was opposed to the Nehruvian idea of

nation building. In this film, Dutt, narrates the story of a poet and his search for an

ideal place where his sensitivity would not be looked down upon.

8. Kaagaz Ke Phool (1959). Director - Guru Dutt. Cast - Guru Dutt, Waheeda

Rehman. The film portrays the shallow world of the film industry seen through the

eyes of the protagonist.

9. Mughal-e-Azam (1960). Director - K Asif. Cast - Prithviraj Kapoor, Dilip Kumar,

Madhubala. The historical romance has stood the test of time with its re-release in

colour a few years ago pulling in the crowds just as before.

10. Sahib, Bibi Aur Ghulam (1962). Director - Abrar Alvi. Cast - Meena Kumari,

Guru Dutt, Waheeda Rehman. An adaptation of a Bengali novel, this film narrates the

tragedy of a lonely woman, who is only an object of decor in a palatial mansion.

11. Bandini (1963). Director - Bimal Roy. Cast - Ashok Kumar, Nutan, Dharmendra.

The black and white masterpiece narrates the story of an imprisoned woman and takes

the audiences back to the Indian freedom movement.

12. Dosti (1964). Director - Satyen Bose. Cast - Sushil Kumar, Sudhir Kumar. One of

the biggest hits of the decade, the film cast untried faces and sensitively narrated the

story of two physically challenged people helping each other survive harsh city life.

13. Guide (1965). Director - Vijay Anand. Cast - Dev Anand, Waheeda Rehman.

Though the film has an adapted storyline, it stands out for its sensitive depiction and

portrayal of characters. Its songs are popular even today.

14. Padosan (1968). Director - Jyoti Swaroop. Cast - Sunil Dutt, Saira Banu,

mehmood, Kishore Kumar. One of Hindi cinema’s finest comedies, this courtship

farce also stands out with its music composed by RD Burman.

15. Aradhana (1969), Director - Shakti Samanta. Cast - Rajesh Khanna, Sharmila

Tagore. A great romantic tragedy with Rajesh Khanna, Bollywood’s biggest sensation

before Amitabh Bachchan stormed into the screen and became the king of the Indian

celluloid.

317

16. Mera Naam Joker (1970). Director - Raj Kapoor. Cast - Raj Kapoor, Manoj

Kumar, Dharmendra, Rajendra Kumar, Simi Garewal, Rishi Kapoor. One of the

longest films made by Bollywood, the story revolves around a heartbroken circus

clown.

17. Do Boond Pani (1971). Director - Khwaja Ahmad Abbas. Cast - Jalal Agha,

Madhu Chanda, Simi Garewal. A powerful film that starkly brings out the socio-

political and economic disparities in the country.

18. Bobby (1973). Director - Raj Kapoor. Cast - Rishi Kapoor, Dimple Kapadia.

Bollywood candyfloss at its best, Bobby used the rich boy-poor girl plot to become a

memorable hit.

19. Ankur (1974). Director - Shyam Benegal. Cast - Shabana Azmi, Anant Nag,

Sadhu Meher. Possibly the best use of neo-realism in Indian cinema, Benegal’s film

narrates the story of a physically challenged labourer and his wife trapped in the cycle

of caste oppression.

20. Sholay (1975). Director - Ramesh Sippy. Cast - Dharmendra, Amitabh Bachchan,

Hema Malini, Sanjeev Kumar, Amjad Khan, Jaya Bhaduri. The biggest blockbuster

India has ever produced, the revenge saga had a riveting script and a brilliant cast who

are still known by their roles in the film.

21. Deewar (1975). Director - Yash Chopra. Cast - Amitabh Bachchan, Shashi

Kapoor, Neetu Singh, Parveen Babi. Amitabh Bachchan as the angry young man at

loggerheads with his brother made this film a roaring success and catapulted

Bachchan to stardom.

22. Jai Santoshi Maa (1975). Director - Vijay Sharma. Cast - Bharat Bhushan, Anita

Guha, Kanan Kaushal. The film in praise of Goddess Santoshi made the cash counters

ring and spawned a whole range of films on gods and goddesses.

23. Mrigayaa (1976). Director - Mrinal Sen. Cast - Mithun Chakraborty, Mamata

Shankar. An art film with a brilliant story of caste discrimination and its effects on the

society portrayed through the character of Ghinua memorably played by Mithun

Chakraborty.

24. Bhumika (1977). Director - Shyam Benegal. Cast - Smita Patil, Amol Palekar,

Anant Nag, Naseeruddin Shah. Smita Patil’s intense acting backed by the entire cast

of the film pulls down the veil of hypocrisy that men wear when they deal with the

other sex.

25. Amar Akbar Anthony (1977). Director - Manmohan Desai. Cast - Amitabh

Bachchan, Vinod Khanna, Rishi Kapoor, Parveen Babi, Shabana Azmi, Neetu Singh.

The gripping tale of the reunion of three long-lost brothers presents the message of

religious tolerance is still hugely popular.

26. Junoon (1978). Director - Shyam Benegal. Cast - Shashi Kapoor, Shabana Azmi,

Nafisa Ali, Naseeruddin Shah. The film stands out as one of Bollywood’s best period

318

films and narrates a Pathan’s obsessive love for a young British girl in the backdrop

of the 1857 mutiny.

27. Muqaddar Ka Sikandar (1978). Director - Prakash Mehra. Amitabh Bachchan,

Rakhee, Rekha. A phenomenon blockbuster of the late 70s that narrates the story of a

orphan boy who struggles to make a living by slogging day and night and then his

tryst with destiny. This film stands out for Amitabh Bachchan’s super performance as

he single-handedly catapulted this film to score over the masses.

28. Golmaal (1979). Director - Hrishikesh Mukherjee. Cast - Amol Palekar, Bindiya

Goswami, Utpal Dutt. This film portrays the finer sensibilities that a comedy should

have and still has audiences laughing.

29. Aakrosh (1980). Director - Govind Nihalani. Cast - Om Puri, Naseeruddin Shah,

Smita Patil, Amrish Puri. Nihalini’s dark cinema almost chokes the audiences with its

grim plot of social oppression. Based on a true incident, the film is a stand out

example in Indian cine history in terms of content and acting.

30. Umrao Jaan (1981). Director - Muzaffar Ali. Cast - Rekha, Farooq Shaikh,

Naseeruddin Shah, Raj Babbar. Set in the Mughal era, this story about a courtesan is a

timeless piece of art.

31. Arth (1982). Director - Mahesh Bhatt. Cast - Shabana Azmi, Kulbhushan

Kharbanda, Smita Patil. A powerful narration of a deserted wife, a straying husband

and his obsessive, emotionally disturbed lover.

32. Sadma (1983). Director - Balu Mahendra. Cast - Kamal Haasan, Sridevi. The

intense story of a girl who loses her memory in an accident.

33. Masoom (1983). Director - Shekhan Kapur. Cast - Naseeruddin Shah, Shabana

Azmi. Shekhar Kapur’s directorial narrates the story of a happily married couple

whose peaceful existence is destroyed when the husband’s illegitimate son from his

past affair lands into their present.

34. Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron (1983). Director - Kundan Shah. Cast - Naseeruddin Shah,

Ravi Baswani, Om Puri, Pankaj Kapur, Satish Shah. A free flowing comedy,

occasionally slapstick, uses the genre to lash out at the widespread corruption present

in the society.

35. Saaransh (1984). Director - Mahesh Bhatt. Cast - Anupam Kher, Rohini

Hattangadi. Possibly one of the finest Hindi films ever, Saaransh tells the story of an

old couple coming to terms with the death of their only son who is killed in a

mugging incident in America.

36. Ram Teri Ganga Maili (1985). Director - Raj Kapoor. Cast - Rajeev Kapoor,

Mandakini, Kulbhushan Kharbanda. The film in mid 80s tries to experiment with the

subject matter by telling the story of a woman who is separated by her lover in a

dramatic turn of events and ends up at a brothel.

319

37. Ijaazat (1987). Director - Gulzar. Cast - Naseeruddin Shah, Rekha, Anooradha

Patel. Arguably Gulzar’s best film, it portrays the complex man-woman relationship.

RD Burman’s songs backed by powerful lyrics by Gulzar give the film a touch of a

classic.

38. Pushpak (1987). Director - Singeetham Srinivasa Rao. Cast - Kamal Haasan,

Amala. The film has the rare distinction of being the only silent film in the era of

talkies and showcases Kamal Haasan’s enormous talent.

39. Maine Pyar Kiya (1989). Director - Sooraj Barjatya. Cast - Salman Khan,

Bhagyashree. A blockbuster of the late 80s, this film marked the emergence of

romantic musicals that flooded the 90s.

40. Lamhe (1991). Director - Yash Chopra. Cast - Anil Kapoor, Sridevi, Anupam

Kher. The king of romance, Yash Chopra, produces one of the best romances

Bollywood has produced till date.

41. Rudaali (1992). Director - Kalpana Lajmi. Cast - Dimple Kapadia, Raakhee

Gulzar, Raj Babbar. It is a story set in Rajasthan about a woman, who is a voluntary

professional mourner, a custom prevalent in the western Indian state.

42. Hum Aapke Hai Koun (1994). Director - Sooraj Barjatya. Cast - Salman Khan,

Madhuri Dixit, Anupam Kher. A super-hit family drama that has become one of the

most successful Hindi films of all times.

43. Drohkaal (1994). Director - Govind Nihalani. Cast - Om Puri, Naseeruddin Shah,

Amrish Puri. Nihalani’s film is a grim portrayal of terror-hit Kashmir.

44. Roja (1994). Director - Mani Ratnam. Cast - Arvind Swamy, Madhoo. Mani

Ratnam’s take on Kashmir is an account of the region through the eyes of a kidnapped

man who manages to escape from the clutches of the terrorists and his wife’s

emotional turmoil.

45. Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995). Director - Aditya Chopra. Cast - Shah Rukh

Khan, Kajol. One of the biggest revenue earners in Indian cinema, this was

Bollywood candyfloss at its best.

46. Bombay (1995). Director - Mani Ratnam. Cast - Manisha Koirala, Arvind Swamy.

The film drew flak for daring to portray the love story between a Hindu Brahmin and

a Muslim girl with the 1993 riots as a backdrop.

47. Fire (1996) Released in India 1998. Director - Deepa Mehta. Cast - Shabana

Azmi, Nandita Das, Kulbhushan Kharbanda. Deepa Mehta raised many eyebrows for

her bold probe into a lesbian relationship between two women, married to two

brothers.

48. Maachis (1996). Director - Gulzar. Cast - Tabu, Chandrachur Singh, Om Puri,

Jimmy Shergil. A political film that took people right into the heart of the Punjab anti-

Sikh riots after the assassination of then prime minister Indira Gandhi.

320

49. Border (1997). Director - JP Dutta. Cast - Sunny Deol, Jackie Shroff, Akshaye

Khanna, Tabu. Though Indian war films are way behind when compared to the

movies Hollywood produces, Dutta’s film effectively probed the emotional depths of

soldiers unsure whether they will go back home.

50. Hazaar Chaurasi Ki Maa (1998). Director - Govind Nihalani. Cast - Jaya

Bachchan, Anupam Kher, Nandita Das, Seema Biswas. Jaya Bachchan made a

spellbinding comeback to cinema portraying the role of a mother whose son is killed

during the Naxal movement of Bengal in the 70s.

51. Godmother (1999). Director - Vinay Shukla. Cast - Shabana Azmi, Sharman

Joshi, Milind Gunaji, Govind Namdeo, Raima Sen. The true-life story of a Gujarati

woman politician narrated through a tense and grim plot was a breath of fresh air

among the stereotyped films made during the latter half of the 90s.

52. 1947 - Earth (1999). Director - Deepa Mehta. Cast - Aamir Khan, Nandita Das,

Rahul Khanna, Kitu Gidwani, Arif Zakaria. The film about India’s partition of 1947

seen through the eyes of a little child is one of Mehta’s finest movies.

53. Laagan (2000). Director - Ashutosh Gowarikar. Cast - Aamir Khan, Gracy Singh.

An Indian entry to the Oscars, the period film narrates the inspiring tale of a group of

peasants who take on the ruling British in a game of cricket.

54. Dil Chahta Hai (2001). Director - Farhan Akhtar. Cast - Aamir Khan, Akshaye

Khanna, Saif Ali Khan, Preity Zinta. Farhan Akhtar manages to script success without

following stereotyped and time tested hit formulas through his portrayal of male

bonding.

55. Company (2002). Director - Ram Gopal Varma. Cast - Ajay devgan, Manisha

koirala, vivek Oberoi, Antara Mali. A hugely successful commercial film, which

stands out for providing an extraordinary insight into the world of organised crime.

56. Koi…Mil Gaya (2003). Director - Rakesh Roshan. Cast - Hrithik Roshan, Preity

Zinta. Bollywood landed a commercially successful children’s film and also catered

to the tastes of all sections of the audience through this take on Steven Spielberg’s ET.

57. Black (2005). Director - Sanjay Leela Bhansali. Cast - Amitabh Bachchan, Rani

Mukherji, Nandana Sen. A slice of classic cinema that reflects extraordinary

sensitivity in portraying the story of a blind-and-deaf girl and her relationship with her

teacher who fills colour into her black and white existence.

58. Krrish (2006). Director - Rakesh Roshan. Cast - Hrithik Roshan, Rekha, Priyanka

Chopra. This film saw the emergence of India’s first silver screen superhero and took

the box office by storm.

59. Rang De Basanti (2006). Director - Rakeysh Mehra. Cast - Aamir Khan, Sharman

joshi, Kunal Kapoor, Soha Ali Khan, Alice Patten. The film swept several awards for

its magnificent portrayal of a bunch of self-absorbed youth who rise up to fight

against corruption.

321

60. Lage Raho Munnabhai (2006). Director - Rajkumar Hirani. Cast - Sanjay Dutt,

Arshad Warsi, Vidya Balan. This hugely successful box office film makes it to this

list for bringing out the true meaning of the Gandhian principles for the common

masses.(Ref.- http://filmikhabar.com/2007/08/12/60-years-60-films/)
