50 Years of Parichay

 


Parichay is a 1972 film released on 20th October.The film was partially inspired by the 1965 movie The Sound of Music.It is directed by Gulzar who changed the looks ans screen image of Jeetendra who by that time was called the Jumping Jack.

It is a feel-good film unlike other 70s Masala Movies with a hero who bashes people. It stars Jeetendra, Jaya Bhaduri and Pran in the lead role, Sanjeev Kumar and Vinod Khanna are as guest and special appearance 

The story is about a misunderstanding between a father Rai Saheb and son Sanjeev Kumar who wants to pursue a career in singing and also marry the girl of his choice but his father was not agreeble so Sanjeev Kumar leaves the home and maries the girl of his choice.

Unfortunately, his wife dies and soon he also is diagnosed terminally ill. After he dies, his father Rai Saheb(Pran) brings home the grandchildren to his palatial home but the children are quite rebel and against their grandfather. The eldest child is Jaya Bhaduri, the children refuse to obey him and constantly flout his rules. Rai Sahab is desperately seeking a tutor for them, but no teacher lasts for more than a few weeks.

Ultimately (Jeetendra) who is jobless takes up the offer to become their teacher. He not only reforms them but Rama and Ravi fall in love. He also mould the displinary attitude of Rai Saheb and the film ends with his consent to Ravi and Rama’s alliance.

The highlight of the film is its music which was composed by R D Burman, it was the first time Gulzar and R D Burman worked together,  This lethal combination later gave Hindi cinema priceless gems over the Seventies and the Eighties
