A potential hit oldie movie that never got released

Thursday, August 14, 2008
Yesterday one of my friends in the movie industry sent me an old movie cassette starring Amitabh Bachhan, Rakhi, and Amjad Khan the terrible. The movie never got released because of some inauspicious mysterious happenings, which led the film producers to burn all the original copies of the movie. My friend, who was the chai delivery 'chhotu' for the set back then had sneaked out one of the copies from under everybody's noses. A few decades alter, i.e. yesterday he gave the cassette to me as a belated friendship day gift.
We watched the movie together. It was just too good. Especially the climax scene.

In the climax scene, we see Rakhi tied up by Amjad Khan and his Kutte just like Basanti of Sholay.
What do you think happened next?

No the hero did not cut off the ropes with his well aimed gun shots. He did not beat the crap out of the goonda and his cronies and rescue the dame. Instead he said something which might have made bollywood history if the movie had been released.

"Kutton, kameenon, sharm nahin aati tumhe! Ladkiyon waaley kaam karte ho! Rakhi bandhte ho! Chheee!"

The ruff-tuff, macho and disgusting looking thugs were so embarrassed when they realised the SISsy nature of their action that they immediately untied Rakhi they had tied;).

If you had not guessed by now, here goes the disclaimer:
I have "A Beautiful Mind". This means, the friend mentioned above is imaginary. Just like the movie, its producers, the inauspicious happenings, the cassette and the climax scene :). This just happened to be my new "flavour of the month" joke!

So happy rakshabandhan.
And before that, Happy Independence day!

By the way they are thinking of making a remake and have approached Rakhi Sawant for the female lead.
