Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi (1966) Reviews
An Underrated Classic
If you're into movies with substance, drama, and morale, you should not miss your chance to watch Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi. This movie is truly a classic that unfortunately is not as popular as it should be. BPBA has nothing in its contents that would fall short of a viewer's expectations (except maybe the songs). The story revolves around the three main characters, Amita (Mala Sinha), Jitendra (Dharmendra), and Sunita (Tanuja). Amita is the head of a newspaper press, and she wishes to entail her father's legacy of printing a paper based on righteousness. Jitendra meets Amita on the subject of an article that he "illegaly" prints in her paper, without the permission of the main editor. The article was about the potential disaster that can occur in the lives of coal miners; and so the article served as a warning to all the miners and their families. Amita gets so caught up in the fact that it was printed without permission that she fires Jiten. He accuses her of caring about nothing more than money, which in reality is not true. But the mine that Jiten had written about does actually collapse, and Amita feels awful about her decision to fire him. Jiten becomes hired as the new editor, and through a short period of time, Amita grows to love Jiten. But Jiten's attention is not set on Amita, because he already met Sunita. Sunita is a playful girl that he meets on a train ride (she was apparently trying to commit suicide for a petty reason), and after a night of arguing, they fall in love. Sunita starts visiting Jiten's residence regularly, and they spend many evenings together. But one day, Sunita invites Jiten to her house. When he arrives, he learns that she is not the only child in the family. Yes, Sunita and Amita are sisters! All three characters are unaware of the love triangle that formed right before them...what will happen next? Will Sunita and Jiten get married? Will Amita be heartbroken? The answer lies in the rest of the heart-wrenching film. The story, dialog, and screenplay of BPBA is beautifully strummed together. The acting is beyond superb by all performers, especially by Mala Sinha. Dharmendra and Tanuja's romance was done in a cute and bubbly way, and they, like Mala Sinha, were very natural as well as powerful in their performance. Other actors, like Rehman and Devan Verma were also marvelous. Every event of the movie is intriguing, and more towards the middle, it gets very intense and touching. Take out a box of Kleenexes please! The only criticism that can be given to this movie is the soundtrack. Most of the background music was taken from Guru Dutt's earlier film, Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam, so Hemant Kumar's haunting tunes added effect to the movie. However, the songs themselves were poorly composed, and in comparison to the movie, they were a disgrace. Music was done by O.P. Nayyar, who still hadn't seemed to find drums or more people in his orchestra by 1966. The producer or director should have found someone else to do the music, perhaps Hemant Kumar, S.D. Burman, Laxmikant Pyarelal, Madan Mohan, Shankar Jaikishan, Kalyanji Anandji...or anyone besides O.P. Nayyar! Ignore the songs, and you've got yourself a great movie! An underrated classic...I could praise it forever! 10/10 (with the exclusion of the songs).
There are some EXCELLENT songs in Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi.
It was nice to read the review written by Gowri on Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi. The movie is nice romantic and has a gentle charm. I would have to disagree on one important point, however: There are some EXCELLENT songs in the movie. In fact, two of them might easily make an all-time top 25 list. 'Aap ke haseen rukh' is one of the very best songs in Hindi films, in my opinion. The lyrics and the melody combine to create an exquisite harmony, and Rafi's singing is indeed superb. 'Woh hanske mile humse' is another haunting melody that would have to be included as an all-time classic. Asha does a magnificent job of conveying the pain in the character's mind through her singing. And finally, the title song is not all that bad either. The song, sung while the hero is on a train has a jaunty, positive ring to it, and is quite catchy. Since I am among those who watch old movies primarily for their songs, I would urge you to please not to disregard BPBA on account of its music! It will leave you humming its tunes for decades to come, as it has for me. RK
Waiting for the spring
Known as Guru Dutt's final offering as a producer, Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi is generally a nice and enjoyable movie. The story, taking place in the editorial department of a leading newspaper, is not particularly fresh and is even a bit typical towards the end, and maybe it's just what it seems to be today. Mala Sinha plays Amita, the managing director of her late father's company who wishes to entail his legacy of printing a reliable paper based on truth and fairness. The entire concept involving the daily life of people at the offices of the newspaper press, and the values people work with is actually very well presented. It is the triangular love story that was a bit tiresome and kind of uninspiring to me, and sadly at some point it took over the much more interesting proceedings involving the newspaper, which were much more socially relevant. In its favour it can be said that the film benefits from an almost uniformly well-written script and good dialogues. The songs are very good but they are not very suitable and some of them come in overly close proximities in the movie, dragging the narrative. The acting is very good. Mala Sinha successfully creates a tough screen persona of a strong and decisive woman with a soft inside. Dharmendra plays the young, idealistic and stubborn young man yet again, and he does it well. Tanuja is bubbly and effective in a role that I think the film would have been better without. Towards the end the film becomes increasingly intense and melodramatic and I did not like the tragic ending. But the bottom line is that Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi is a watchable movie from Hindi cinema's golden era and it's a worthy effort, particularly for those who enjoy watching Guru Dutt's cinema.
