Anand is one of the finest movie of Indian cinema. It is written and directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee. Rajesh
Khanna gave his best performance in the title role a larger than life role of a
cancer patient who lives a life of bliss and happiness for others while he
himself feel sorrow and loneliness.
Amitabh Bachchan in the supporting role was
quite impressive too. Johnny Walker gave a commendable performance in a
small but significant role. Other notable supporting performances were by Lalita Pawar and Dara Singh.
Excellent music of the movie was from Salil Chaudhary and
lyrics were written by Yogesh and Gulzar. A beautiful poem of Gulzar ‘Maut tu
ek kavita hai’ was narrated by Amitabh Bachchan.
मौत तू एक कविता है,
मुझसे एक कविता का वादा है मिलेगी मुझको
मुझसे एक कविता का वादा है मिलेगी मुझको
डूबती नब्ज़ों में जब दर्द को नींद आने लगे
ज़र्द सा चेहरा लिये जब चांद उफक तक पहुचे
दिन अभी पानी में हो, रात किनारे के करीब
ना अंधेरा ना उजाला हो, ना अभी रात ना दिन
ज़र्द सा चेहरा लिये जब चांद उफक तक पहुचे
दिन अभी पानी में हो, रात किनारे के करीब
ना अंधेरा ना उजाला हो, ना अभी रात ना दिन
जिस्म जब ख़त्म हो और रूह को जब साँस आऐ
मुझसे एक कविता का वादा है मिलेगी मुझको
There are four songs in the films and all of them are still
popular even after so many years. My favourite is ‘Kahin door jab din dhal jaye’
Kahin Door Jab Din Dhal Jaye (Singer: Mukesh Lyrics: Yogesh)
Zindagi Kaisi Hai Paheli (Singer: Manna Dey Lyrics: Yogesh)
Maine Tere Liye (Singer: Mukesh Lyrics: Gulzar)
Na Jiya Lage Na (Singer: Lata Mangeshkar Lyrics: Gulzar)
The movie won National Award for the Best Film category. It
also won six Filmfare awards including Best Actor (Rajesh Khanna) and Best
Supporting Actor (Amitabh Bachchan).
