Parda Hai Parda – Amar Akbar Anthony



Mohammad Rafi has got such a beautiful voice.

Amar Akbar Anthony was released in 1977 & it won several awards. The music was written by Laxmikant-Pyarelal. Kishore Kumar sang for Amitabh & Mohammad Rafi sang for Rishi Kapoor. Btw, they are even thinking of making a re-make of Amar Akbar Anthony & that sounds more like a disaster in the making, cause Salman Khan & his two brothers will be the three brothers in the new version. What a nightmare! First of all, there's no need to make a remake & even if they are making, there are better options. Salman Khan is beautiful but he's too old now. I think Akshay Khanna, Abhishek & Ranbir Kapoor could have done it. There are also other actors such as Arjun Rampal, Hrithik Roshan & I'm sure they'd might do justice. Even Ajay Devgan, Emraan Hashmi & Sikander Kher or Ranvir are some other options, if you want not that good-looking cast :P But I'm telling you all of them will look better than Salman Khan & his brothers. Moreover, I don't think they have anyone as pretty as Parveen Babi now. I'm not going to watch the remake at any cost.

Alright. You know I like the entire song but these lines were sang with so much passion:
'Khafa hokay chehra chupa lay,
Magar yaad rak husn wala
Jo hai aaj teri jawani,
Mera pyaar hai sard paani,
Main teray ghussay ko thanda na kar doon'

I also loved how Rishi Kapoor makes entry in the song...too cute. And his get-up is also cute.
What a pity we can't even say such things to anyone:
'Shabab pay mein zara si sharab phekunga
Kisi hasin ki taraf ye ghulab phekunga.'
No one is that beautiful but what an idea!
