Shammi Kapoor - His Movies & His Songs
Shammi Kappor has been in the movie industry for a very very long time. He first appeared in 1953 in "Thokar" when he was 22. Since then he acted in over 130 movies. Though he struggled initially as an actor, after marrying another actress (Geetabali), his life changed forever under her able guidance. From a commercial also ran to he became a sought after atcor. I am starting this new series on Shammi. I have many of his movies in CDs. I am missing some of them from his early years, and may be one or two from the later years. I would like to share these songs with you in coming months and invite the members to share any missing songs to complete the albums. To start with here is the part 1 of his filmography ...

Rangeen Raatein (1956)
The most notable thing about this movie is that Shammi fell in love with Geeta Bali during its filming that eventually led to their marriage. Geetaji had a cameo role in the movie. She decided to appear because Kidar Sharma was directing it. Sharmaji was the one who introduced Geeta Bali to the movies. Shammi, in the brief span of his professional career by this time already acted with Geeta Bali in two movies; "Miss Coca Cola" and "Coffee House". Geetaji was on a high note of her career at this juncture. Shammi wooed her for several months and secretly married her before announcing it to his parents. Besides Geeta Bali there are two other leading ladies in this movie; Chand Usmani and Mala Sinha. Shammi acted with Chand Usmani earlier in "Jeevan Jyoti" for the same director. Bengali speaking Mala Sinha was new to Hindi movies and could hardly speak Hindi. Geeta Bali took her into her wings and groomed her for her role in this movie. There are eight songs in this movie. All these songs were uploaded recently by Faizel ji. My heartfelt thanks to him for sharing these songs with us. Now for details of the songs and the songs themselves ...
