(Amitabh) Kohram (1999)

The movie's title may mean "explosion" but even with an impressive cast and fairly good music the movie bombed. Mehul Kumar who directed this film made an earlier film with Amitabh, "Mrityudaata" in 1997 which also tanked.

As mentioned earlier, the songs are okay. The song "Hum Hain" has traces of RD's hit song from "Padosan (1968) "O Mere Bhole" but is fun to listen to. I am uploading songs from this film from an original soundtrack album in two back-to-back posts. Here is the first set of songs...

(Amitabh) Sooryavansham (1999)

Soundaraya (see the attached picture below), who was the heroine of this film was a popular actress from south. Born in Karnataka, she left her MBBS studies to become an actress. She acted in all four South Indian languages. “Sooryavansham” with Amitabh was her only Hindi film. While traveling by plane to campaign for BJP candidates, her plane crashed and she was killed with her brother and others. She was only 31. In less than 12 years in the film industry she was in, she acted in over 90 films. She won several awards during her illustrious career.

This will be the last film of Amitabh we will be covering in this thread. In the past 28 months we have covered every movie Amitabh was associated with in the last century. The number is about 140. Amitabh burst into the film scene in 1969 in K.A. Abbas’s “Saat Hindustani” and rose to the top after initial struggle. He had a grip on the top spot almost through the end of 80’s. But 90’s saw the decline of his popularity as most of his films were box-office failures. One of the most brilliant actors of our time, Amitabh came back roaring in 2000 with Yash Chopra’s “Mohabbatein”, and still continues to draw crowds and garner accolades.

This film, “Sooryavansham”, was made in all four southern languages. It was popular in all of them. But in Hindi the film was a major disappointment and met only a limited success. I am uploading songs from this film in two back-to-back posts. I will also upload songs from the 1998 Telugu version immediately after these songs right in this post.

Here are the songs in the first post…

Concluding Songs from "Sooryavansham (1999)"...

Here are the rest of the songs from this album. The two parts of the song "Dil Mere" by Kumar Sanu are identical except one is at a slightly slower pace. The way Sanu sings it is really difficult to tell how different these really are...
