Funny - considering it was by the same director. Maybe they changed the settings to suit Hindi sensibilities? The Malayalam original was a simple story about a young girl falling in love with her much-older benefactor and his conflict over his rising attraction to her. It was finely nuanced.Anuradha Warrierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00340730648674805773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-23825776228536881542011-02-13T01:59:28.117-06:002011-02-13T01:59:28.117-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Online Movies Megavideohttp://watchmoviesonlin9.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-10354369679840751342011-01-29T03:48:41.232-06:002011-01-29T03:48:41.232-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Hot Wallpaperhttp://sexywallpaper.in/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-37194452262145662292011-01-25T19:37:05.002-06:002011-01-25T19:37:05.002-06:00CheeC - You watched this!

Most of the article was an interview w/ Sabiha, where she accused both Rajesh and the director were both trying to molest Sabiha. Plus that scene which you have a screen cap of- apparently they both slapped Sabiha silly to make her cry. Sabiha was apparently present when her mom said all this, and merely chimed in to agree w/ her mom.

Thankfully, the only scenes that willingly subject themselves to my conscious recall now seem to be that "Mary in habit" nightmare and "Mary in nightie" (great catch Amaluu, and LOL!) party pooping, but consider my subconscious singed (not from the HOTNESS that's a buck-naked Karan Shah though....how on earth did I miss that shower scene???

This brings my Rajesh Khanna film total to three (if you count <i>Disco Dancer</i>), so I know I have a lot to learn, but this one was no enticement.<br /><br />Amaluu - Ooooh! Do you remember what she said happened? I'm morbidly curious, I think because she seems SO YOUNG in this film that there is not the faintest touch of sexuality about her - like, 9 years old, not the almost-a-woman vibe of older teeangers. <br /><br />As for clothes, this is a parade of sad 80s things that have a touch of prairie about them - high necks and full skirts. I guess we can't trust convent girls to be tricked out in the very best spandex and off-the-shoulder. Hmph. <br /><br />You know, the more 80s films I see, I think it might actually be the 90s that I fear most. But don't quote me on that. I am ready to be schooled! :)Beth Loves Bollywoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540154833326987567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-36752011021094822042011-01-22T09:44:00.589-06:002011-01-22T09:44:00.589-06:00I TOTALLY remember reading the Stardust article ab...I TOTALLY remember reading the Stardust article about the Rajesh Khanna - Sabihaa scandal! They gave EXPLICIT details about what happened -- quite shocking when I was little.<br /><br />I notice that Mary appeared to have worn her nightie to Sherry's party.<br /><br />I suppose this is going to do nothing for your aversion to the 80s. Dang it. :-)Amaluuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02380614143900866533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-6379626404562419112011-01-20T21:29:05.946-06:002011-01-20T21:29:05.946-06:00I think no one really went to watch this film espe...I think no one really went to watch this film especially after the Sabiha incident. Thank God for that, no, not for the S inc. but for not going to see the film.
