DILIPKUMAR & RAJKUMAR..PAIGHAM TO SAUDAGAR!


 - Manoj Kulkarni


Milestone Bollywood movie Subhash Ghai's 'Saudagar' (1991) already completed it's silver jubilee year..And I looked in flashback!

Poster of  S. S. Vasan's 'Paigham' (1959).
It was the only second time two veteran actors..great Dilip Kumar and Raj Kumar came together after 'Paigham' (1959) in which they first time appeared in lead roles together!..And showman Subhash Ghai made it possible like true 'Saudagar'!
"Is jangal mein hum do sher.."
 Raj Kumar & Dilip Kumar danced in 'Saudagar'!

Superhit 'Saudagar's story line was influenced from the all time popular 'Romeo and Juliet'! Here pretty Manisha Koirala made her debut with Vivek Mushran...on Laxmikant-Pyarelal's hit tune "Ilu Ilu.." But the song in which Dilip Kumar & Raj Kumar danced together with saying "Is jangal mein hum do sher.." mentioned a lot!

Raj Kumar & Dilip Kumar..conversation in 'Paigham'!

S. S. Vasan's ' 'Paigham' was a social film which written by Ramanand Sagar! In this Dilip Kumar & Raj Kumar first time played the lead roles together with Vyjayanthimala!..Poet Pradeep's very meaningful song in it, which composed by C. Ramchandra is very much contemporary today..


"Insan ka insan se ho bhaichara
 Yehi Paighaam hamaaraa.."
