Indian Movies, Masti and Emotions

I assume most of you know Hindi. So far, there has been no 'videshi' reader yet!! :-P

Before you jump into any conclusion, NO I am not writing a post in Hindi.

My ever-lasting source of fun and a good laughter is watching old Indian movies. You know, those kind of movie where the hero and the heroine were bulky and shapeless and with paunch. I am not saying its a crime, they represented common man. Not everyone has a 6 pack or a size zero or flat abs!!

Those movies where the actor wore green pant, yellow shirt and red shoes...Govinda types. Those type of movies where dances were like exercises taught at schools.

1 - raise your right hand, 2 - raise your left hand, 3 - right foot forward, 4 - left foot forward...types.

Those type of movies where hero is poor, has a sick mom, a sister yet to be married, who is financially weak and falls in love with a rich chick kinds....


More than any of these, those movies where dialogues just give you a high!! yeah a high or is it low??? Certainly it makes me laugh.....

Ajee sunte ho, munna ke pitaji............

This is a wife seeking husband's attention. Do we find this in movies nowadays? Now its "Rizwan..my son is no more"

Pithaji, maaf kardijiye.....

Those formal mouthing of dialogues!! Did everyone speak so formally in those days? It seems very made up and rehearsed. They are full of emotions, overdose of emotions. Were people over-emotional then?

Swaami, main dhanya hun

Vats, is baaliko ko andhar le chalo

Taj unke kareeb nahin hota jinke kareeb khauf hota hain - one of the dialogue from Mugal-e-azam

Yeh aap kya keh rahe hain bhai saab?

Unki aatma batak rahi hai.....The ghost!!

Yeh kya anyaay hai bhagwan!!

Bhagwan, maine aaj tak tumse kuch nahin manga, aaj pahli baar kuch maang raha hun

Once again, I know its redundant to mention it, but I nudged Gautam to utter few dialogues he could recall. I was sure he will come up with never thought about dialogues. Thats why I encourage him to participate in discussions with me!!

Here are his lines......

hamari iccha yeh hai ki, ye duniya itna zaalim na ho...

kitna sundar upaay balika



He even recalled a Britannia 50-50 advertisement that went on the lines of old movies

premalatha, ye duniya kitna zaalim hain...
kyun na hum kahi jaakar atma hatya kar le
kyun na hum britannia 50 50 khaakar zindagi ka aanand lein



There are few classic dialogues; I bet these are universal to India and that they are available in all languages. The names never change, the tones never change, the style never change....

Mein tumhari bachche ki ma banne wali hoon......(the helpless pregnant lover)

Bhaiyyyaaaaaaaaaa!!!.................(the all protecting elder brother)

Ramu kaka...(omni present bawarchi)

Ek baar mujhe ma kehkar pukaaro beta....(with an earnest look)

Doodh pi lijiye....(On the first night, a shy wife telling her newly wed husband)

Bhabhi, tumhare haath ki chai peene ko man kar raha hai ...........(Love oozing out...a loving brother-in-law yearning for bhabhi's haath ki banayi hi chai!!!)

Bachhhhaaaaaaaaaaaaoooooooooo..................HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

Maa, mein first class pass hogaya maa!!

Driver!! gaadi roko...

Yeh behcaari begunah hai...Thats all your honor.

This can go on and on....

Just fast forward and think about the dialogues in movies now. Its all "Yo!" , "Dude", "Saala", "Kaminaey"......

The world is a global village, so our communication is also inspired...mix of this and that!!

Sample this....

jhakkaas
thok dega tere ko saale
kya samjha apun ko
mamu nahi
boley toh apun ko bhi kuh kuch
holey raha ha biddu

oye..milli...milli....sun na...kya hai munna? hum sochraela ke apun ko settle hone ka

All said and done, its our staple diet in entertainment!

And yes, please mention your favorite dialogue from old movies while commenting :-)

Main ja rahi hoon.....main ja rahi hoon.............Alvida.

:-P

  8. Nice post, I guess. Do not understand a word you wrote in Hindi. But I have pretty good idea of Indian movies, by watching almost all Tamil movies. Here are some of my favorite dialogues:

    The villain tells her daughter at the time of his death: Idhu ellaam unkkagathan seidhane.

    Suppressed mother finally tells her son: Poruthadhu podhum pongi ezhu maganay.

    Old school teacher tell his ex-student who is very successful now: nee periya aalaa varavenu enakku munnadiyay theriyum .

    You could also add
    "Mera mara hua muhn dekhega"

    "Bhagwan ke liye mujhe chod do"

    "Desh ke liye jaan de doonga"

    "Hindustani aurat apne pati ke sivay doosre ka haath nahin pakarti"

    btw, these were some dialogues..

    I can recall many; but you will read them in my next tag post; where you will be tagged too; so be ready to churn out few more famous dialogues then..

    my favourite dialogue with the background story:


    there is one famous sms doing rounds about this - no matter whop rapes trhe girl; in the end bhagwan is held responsible as the mother yells after looking at her daughter who was raped "hey bhagwan, ye tune kya kiya?"

    :D

  16. Arre maa kasam...thanks for posting this...i have become super enthu...aaj tere comment section mein ramayan likh kar rahungi :)

    Some of my fav dialogues:

    Basanti in kutton k saamne mat naachna

    itna sannata kyun hain bhai

    Phata poster nikhala hero

    yeh haath mujhe de de thakur


    And my all-time favorites:

    Naam:Vijay deenanath chauhan..Poora naam, baap ka naam:deena nath chauhan, maa ka naam, suhasini chauhan

    babuji na kahan gaon chod do, sab ne kaha ke paro ko chod do, paro ne kahan sharab chod do, ab tum kehe rahin ho ki is haweli ko chod do, ek din ayega jab sub kahengi ki bus yeh duniya hi chod do.

  19. Nice posting.
    You made us to recall all old hindi film dialogues.
    Here are few:
    ...Poora talash lo (police wala)
    ...Main tuje bahut saahtaa hoo.
    ...Tene binaa jee nahin sakta.
    ...Ariho saamba.... kitne aadhmee thai. (sholay)
    ... thuje jindaa nahin choodungaaaaaaaaa (dharmendar usual dialogue)
    ... mujeh aur ek mouka dho.
    ... Dharmesh ki maa sunteh hoo (husband calls her wife)

    We can keep on writing many like this. However, no one can forget the old hindi film dialogues. Thanks for reminding those filmy days.

    All the Best.

  44. @ Gautam, your dialogue reminded me of a joke very often mentioned by a friend of mine:

    Its 1975… Spiderman, Superman and Batman decide to take a break from crime fighting and go on a world tour. Superman kindly allows the other 2 to hitch a ride with him (or may be u can say on him… but that sounds so… so… you know what I mean) While passing over India… suddenly all of them fall down.. DEAD… WHY??

    Cuz in 1975, Gabbar Singh said, “Aadmi teen aur goli chhe... bahut na-insaafi hai” Dichkyaon… Dichkyaon… Dichkyaon (fired 3 shots in the air)

    Teeno marr gaye... ha ha ha ha ha ha

    ReplyDelete
  45. @ neha,

    "(or may be u can say on him… but that sounds so… so… you know what I mean)". ha ha ha. i was laughing so hard when seeing this.
