~*~A Look Back At Old Movies~*~

Hey Guys,

I have thought that since now-a-days lot of modern and scriptless movies are being made, why dont we look at some old movies, which actually made sense, had good storylines and can be watched by the whole week

So this week we will start off with one of the most family oriented movie:

Hum Saath Saath Hain

Like all Rajshri Movies, this movie too was a movie all about relationships with excellent star cast, storyline, songs, music and a good message.

Starcast:

Monish Behl

Salman Khan

Saif Ali Khan

Tabu

Sonali Bendre

Karishma Kapoor

Alok Nath

Neelam

Satish Shah

Storyline:

Hum Saath Saath Hain (HSSH) is a typical Rajshri film. Like in his earlier film Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, in this film too director Sooraj Barjatya has focused on life in a joint family.

The story of HSSH revolves around a happy joint family, whose members come together to celebrate the silver wedding anniversary of Ramkishen (Alok Nath) and Mamta (Reema). They have four lovely grown up children – Vivek (Mohnish Behl), Prem (Salman Khan), Sangeeta (Neelam) and Vinod (Saif Ali Khan), who share a close bonding with each other.

Sangeeta is married to Anand (Mahesh Thakur) and they have a sweet little daughter. Mamta's brother and his wife (Ajit Vachchani and Himani Shivpuri), family friend (Satish Shah), his daughter Preeti (Sonali Bendre), Anwar (Shakti Kapoor) also join the celebration.

Sapna (Karisma Kapoor), her father (Sadashiv Amrapurkar), Durga mausi (Shammi), Sadhana (Tabu) and her father (Rajiv Verma) are also there.

As the story moves along, Vivek weds Sadhana, Prem gets engaged to Preeti and Vinod falls in love with Sapna.

Ramkishenji's dream is to have all his sons and daughter-in-laws stay together, sharing with each other life's joys and sorrows. However, the so-called "well-wishers" of the family keep talking about how families are breaking up in today's times.

One day, problems arise in Sangeeta's family. Sangeeta and her husband Anand have to move out of their ancestral home and start life anew. This comes as a jolt to Ramkishenji's family. Ramkishenji's wife, Mamta, feels pained for her daughter and starts worrying about the future of her sons.

There is talk of separating the boys. But Ramkishenji's ideals prevail. The sons and the daughter-in-laws stand united in their moment of crisis.

Finally, Sangeeta and Anand are happily re-united with their family. The sons and daughter-in-laws prove that "the family that eats and prays together... stays together."

As far as the story is concerned, the film has nothing new. The big cast is largely decorative. They have nothing challenging to do.

The music has been scored by Ram Laxman. Mhare Hiwda Mein is the best of the lot.

It's a good family entertainment

Questions:

Rajshri Productions have always provided movies which can be enjoyed by the whole family, and even last year where stylish and sleek movies like D2, Don were being released, Rajshri stuck with a simple love story like Vivah which proved to be a huge success at the box office. What's your thoughts on the decision of Rajshri Production to stick will movies about family values and make movies for the whole family can watch. Is there a chance for family films to work today in an era where style, glamour and sex is given more attention in movies?

Rate Hum Saath Saat Hain.

Your favorite song and rate the songs/music?

Rate the couples: Monish/Tabu, Salman/Sonali and Saif/Karishma.

How did you like Neelam and Shakti Kapoor's role in the movie?

Well thats all for now, hope you guys like this new type of discussion....and you guys can also suggest other movies that I can do for the upcoming weeks as "A Look Back at Old Movies"

I definitly think there should be family, simply, entertaining movies like this in bollywood. Of course the glamour, sex and fashion is more vivid in todays stylish movies but I also miss the simple love stories like this. Vivah was very nice and simple to watch, but it didn't touch me like this one, or Hum Aapke Hai Kaun.

Rate Hum Saath Saat Hain.

I love this film to bits! 👏

Your favorite song and rate the songs/music?

Mhare Hiwda! 👏😳 Its the cutest song ever. I love the lyrics, the song, the pictureization...everything! 😳

Rate the couples: Monish/Tabu, Salman/Sonali and Saif/Karishma

Monish/Tabu: 5/5 - I think they suited well. Both were so calm and patient and shy...their chemistry went well. 👏

Salman/Sonali: 3/4 - I somehow didn't like them together so much. Their characters were well suited, both quite and shy once again, but...

Saif/Karishma: 6/5! 👏😆 I loved Saif in it, he was so cute and funny! Their pair was so well too, hyper, cute and in love!! 😳😆👏 I usually like Karishma and Salmaan better, but in this film, no one could have done it like saif! 👏

How did you like Neelam and Shakti Kapoor's role in the movie?

Neelam was sweet! Nice and loving her brothers dearly! 😳👏 Shakti was good as always! He always lights the movie! 😊

I really liked Hum Saath Saath Hain, but Vivah wasn't one of my favourites of last year. I found it quite urm boring .. It wasn't my cup of tea😛 Though the story was cute and all .. maybe it was the actors .. Amrita Rao and Shahid aren't my favourites so I wasn't too interested in watching it. If its a GOOD family movie then sure .. like you said Vivah was pretty successful!

Rate Hum Saath Saat Hain.
8/10 It dragged a bit towards the end

Your favorite song and rate the songs/music?
songs were great I'd give em about 9/10 .. My favourite .. I can't rmr the name .. but its the one the eldest brother sings at his parents anniversary.

Rate the couples: Monish/Tabu, Salman/Sonali and Saif/Karishma.
8/10, 9/10,9/10

How did you like Neelam and Shakti Kapoor's role in the movie?
Shakti Kapoor was great! I really liked him here. Neelam was alright.

if these kind of movies were made today then i don't think they'll be a big hit.. everyone has seen today's movies n u can tell the new taste of the audience... i know some people will luv to watch these kind of movies n i'll be one of them.. umm vivah was my fav.. the only thing i didn't like abt it was that it was long n i was thinking when will the problem start😆 it did but at the very end😆 i think it was a hit because of some magic but it was quite hard.. i never thought it'll be a big hit
