Music star films

taal-a film by subhash ghai
Manav –mansi
Akshaye Khanna plays Manav Mehta, a UK-based rich businessman, who falls in love with Mansi (Aishwarya Rai), daughter of a poor singer, on a visit to picturesque Chamba in Northern India. Wary of the vast gulf between their two families, Mansi initially resists Manav's overtures but is eventually drawn to him.
Humiliation for tarababu
However, Manav has to leave Chamba for Mumbai but promises Mansi that he will convince his family to accept their relationship. But that's easier said than done. When Mansi and her father Tara Babu (Alok Nath) visit Manav's house in Mumbai, they are humiliated and thrown out.

vikrant turned mansi starAs the dejected girl and her father ponder their next moves, they run into a cocky talent manager and musician Vikrant Kapoor (Anil Kapoor)

Vikrant turns Mansi into a mega star and in the process also falls in love with her and wants to marry her.
manav waited for mansiAs usual, Aishwarya Rai looks ethereal while Akshaye Khanna, throwns in a sensitive performance as the young lover patiently waiting for the happy day when Mansi and he will be united.


Anil Kapoor is fine as the brash musician and talent manager. While not out of this world, A.R.Rahman's music is pleasing. favorites songs were Ishq Bina, Taal Se Taal and Rafta Jogi.Fine photography and Aishwarya's dancing add to the overall pleasure that Taal provides in abundant measure.

Abhimaan- amitabh ji jaya bhaduri
Enduring Bollywood romantic drama starring Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bhaduri. A celebrated pop singer falls in love with a simple village girl, but when her musical career eclipses his own, he is overcome with bitterness and resentment

Anurodh - afilm by shakti samanta
This is a great musical movie from the Shakti Samanta - Rajesh Khanna camp which has excellent music by Laxmikant Pyarelal. The characters are very strong- Ashok Kumar, Vinod Mehra, Nirupa Roy put in a good performance. The movie is a remake of a Bengali movie but retains its originality. Rajesh Khanna as usual puts up a great performance and is good in comedy, romance and drama. He shows the class of being a Super Star in the movie. This runaway hit has also good story, excellent editing and good direction. It is a must see and the songs of Kishore Kumar in the movie are excellent, it seems that Rajesh Khanna is singing them. How they suit each other.

Yarana Amitabh amjad khan
The movie is based on two childhood friends, who mean a lot to one another, one loves to sing and the other works on the ship.Amjad bhai would love his friend to come to the city to make a name for himself, who has to be pursuaded in coming as his friend gets real angry and to cool him down, is the song, Bhole oh bhole tu rootha jaag shuta sung by the late Kishore Da.
When he is pursuaded and brought to town he has to be changed from a villager to a city type and here he meets Neetu Singh a town girl.He becomes a top singer, then as usual the villain steps in making problems for his friend and how they face them.Yes this is one movie again you can alway’s sit and watch with your family, like all recent movies of Amitabh ji.

It’s nice to know after a long time we are getting family oriented movies and no rubbish like a few one of them being Bachke rehna re it warns the viewers with the title itself.Songs are real super ones especially the title song of the movie and chukar mere mann ko.
