Introduction : 
 
Om Shanti Om is a 2007 Indian film directed and choreographed by Farah Khan. It stars Shah Rukh Khan and debutant Deepika Padukone in the lead roles while Arjun Rampal, Shreyas Talpade, and Kirron Kher feature in supporting roles. More than forty-two well-known Hindi movie stars appear in the course of the film, including thirty of them (not including the stars of the film) in one song alone. The film is set in the 1970s and 2000s; it pays tribute to, and pokes fun at, the Indian film industry of both these eras.

Summary :

Om Prakash Makhija (Shah Rukh Khan) is a junior artist in the 1970s Hindi film industry, in love with film star Shanti Priya (Deepika Padukone). One evening, Om views the premiere of Shanti’s film Dream Girl, posing as Manoj Kumar. Later that night, Om becomes drunk and describes his vision of himself as a famous, wealthy film star winning the Filmfare Award for Best Actor to his friend Pappu (Shreyas Talpade) and some local children. At the shooting of a later film, Om rescues Shanti from a fire scene where of the fire has escaped control, and they become friends. One day, after following Shanti, he overhears her and producer Mukesh Mehra’s (Arjun Rampal) conversation, that Mukesh and Shanti have married in secret and Shanti is pregnant and expects a traditional wedding. Mukesh pretends to be happy with the news, and invites Shanti at the set of their soon-to-be-made film Om Shanti Om. Mukesh promises to cancel the film, reveal their marriage to the public, and have a grand wedding on the set; but instead traps Shanti on the set and sets it on fire to prevent a financial loss and to protect his career. Shanti tearfully begs Mukesh to release her but he leaves anyway.

Om, who happens to be at the same location that night, attempts to rescue Shanti, but is attacked by Mukesh’s guards. After the guards leave, he again attempts to rescue Shanti and enters the set. He finds Shanti but he is thrown from the building by an explosion. The building explodes after he is thrown from it and Shanti appears to have died.

Outside, Om is hit by a car owned by Rajesh Kapoor (Javed Sheikh), a well-known actor taking his wife Lovely to the hospital to give birth. At the hospital, Om remembers his moments with Shanti as he dies due to these injuries while Lovely gives birth to a son, also named Om. This Om in adulthood becomes a popular movie star and the reincarnation of Om Prakash. He is nicknamed 'O.K.’, and lives the luxurious life imagined by Om Prakash, but experiences pyrophobia and subconsciously inherits Om Prakash’s memories. In acceptance of an award, O.K. unexpectedly delivers Om Prakash’s drunken speech to the assembly. Pappu hears this on television. At a celebration of his award, O.K. is introduced by his father to Mukesh Mehra, and remembers the events that happened in his past life thereupon completely recovering Om Prakash’s memories. He later reunites with Om’s mother Bela (Kirron Kher) and Pappu and conspires to avenge Shanti’s death by making Mukesh confess his crime.

To that end, O.K. convinces Mukesh to restart Om Shanti Om, while scheming to convince Mukesh that Shanti is a ghost haunting him. To impersonate Shanti, O.K. finds Sandhya, a.k.a. Sandy, a doppelganger of Shanti. Throughout the film’s shooting, O.K. and his friends arrange incidents to remind Mukesh of his crime. During the music launch of the film, O.K. taunts Mukesh by revealing, through a song, the extent to which he knows the story of Shanti’s death. But when Mukesh runs after Sandy thinking she is a ghost of Shanti, Sandy accidentally cuts her arm and bleeds. Seeing this, Mukesh confirms that she is not Shanti’s ghost. But when he is about to confront O.K, he is suddenly hit by the chandelier.

After Mukesh wakes up, O.K. confronts Mukesh but is shocked when Mukesh reveals that he knows who Sandy is. During the quarrel, Sandy shows up. O.K. tries to send Sandy back. Sandy reveals that Mukesh, after the fire ceased to burn, found that Shanti survived the fire, but he buried her alive below the set’s chandelier. O.K. is confused about how Sandy knows this. Mukesh attempts to shoot Sandy shocked by the extent to which she knows about the murder, but Mukesh and O.K. fight, which results in yet another fire. Just when O.K. is about to kill Mukesh, Sandy stops him, says that Mukhesh will not die by his hand, and the chandelier drops on Mukesh, killing him instantly. Pappu and Sandy join O.K. O.K. is shocked when he sees the real Sandy and realizes the person he assumed Sandy was actually Shanti’s ghost. The ghost smiles warmly towards Om and tearfully bids goodbye to him. The film ends with Shanti’s ghost leaving the scene and disappears into the light.

Music Sound Track :

The film’s songs were composed by the musical duo Vishal-Shekhar with lyrics by Javed Akhtar, whilst the background score was composed by Sandeep Chowta. Initially, A. R. Rahman was signed in to compose original songs and background score for the film, but he opted out of this movie, as T-Series did not agree to share the copyrights of music with him and the lyricist. The soundtrack for the film released on 18 September 2007.

फिल्म 'मैं हूँ ना' की कामयाबी के बाद शाहरुख ख़ान और फराह ख़ान एक बार फिर साथ मे आए है| फिल्म बनते वक़्त ये कहा गया था की ओम शांति ओम सुभाष घई की "क़र्ज़" की तर्ज़ पर बनी है| फिल्म शुरू भी क़र्ज़ के गाने ओम शांति ओम से शुरू होती है पर दोनो मे समानता इंटर्वल के बाद ही दिखाई देती है| फिल्म 70 के दशक से शुरू होते हुए आधुनिक दौर मे ले जाती है|
ओम शांति ओम 3 घंटे का मजेदार शो है जिसमे कहानी है, संवाद है, माँ की भावनाएँ है, ड्रामा है और वो सारा मसाला है जिसके लिए दर्शक इसे देखना पसंद करेंगे|पर इन सबके लिए दर्शको को दिमाग़ घर पर छोड़ कर आना पड़ेगा नही तो सवालों के भँवर मे फँस जाएँगे|
फ़िल्म के गाने बहुत अच्छे हैं और फराह ने विशाल-शेखर और जावेद अख़्तर की मेहनत को पूरी तरह भुनाया है। गानों के बीच-बीच में हल्की फुल्की कॉमेडी या कभी कभी थोड़ी सी कहानी आती जाती रहती है। किसी भी मसाला फ़िल्म की तरह तालियाँ बजाने और सीटी मारने के भरपूर दृश्य हैं|
कहानी: फिल्म 70 के दशक से शुरू होती है। शांति (दीपिका पादुकोण) नामी फ़िल्‍मी सितारा है। दूसरी ओर हीरो बनने का सपना संजोए ओमप्रकाश मखीजा (शाहरुख़ खान) छोटा कलाकार है। ओम दिल ही दिल शांति को चाहने लगता है और दोनों एक दूसरे के करीब भी आते हैं। लेकिन, किस्मत को यह मंजूर नहीं। शांति एक बड़ी फिल्म ओम शांति ओम के लिए काम करती है जिसके निर्माता मेहरा(अर्जुन रामपाल) है| शांति मेहरा के बच्चे की माँ बनने वाली है पर मेहरा को अपनी फिल्म से ज़्यादा प्यार है| वह शांति को ओम शांति ओम के सेट में बंद करके सेट को आग लगा देता है| ओम सेट की खिड़की से यह सब देख रहा होता है | वह शांति को बचाने की कोशिश में बुरी तरह से झुलस जाता है और अस्पताल में दम तोड़ देता है।
इंटरवल के बाद कहानी में नया मोड़ आता है। अब ओम कपूर (शाहरुख़ खान) 70 के दशक के फिल्म सितारा

राजेश कपूर का बेटा और और खुद एक फिल्म सितारा है| उसे निर्माता मेहरा को अपने किए की सज़ा देनी है। आगे की फिल्म न केवल ' कर्ज ' की बल्कि 60 के दशक की ' मधुमती ' की भी याद ताजा कराती है।

Lyrics :

धूम ताना ता ना ता ना ना ना - 2,
धूम ताना धीर ना धीर ना

कैसे नैनो से नैन मिलाओं सजना,
कैसे मैं ऐसे ना घबरौ सजना
कैसे आए ऐसे मोहे लाज सजना,
छूना ना देखो मोहे आज सजना
धूम ताना ता ना ता ना ना ना - 2,
धूम ताना धीर ना धीर ना

मृगनैनी तू ना जाने, प्रेम कितना मेरे मन में है
यह बेचैनी मांगती है, रूप जो तेरे योवान्‍न में है
तेरा फूल सा है अंग, तेरे अंग में है रंग
तेरे रंग के मैं संग गोरिये
तेरे रंग में है रूप, तेरे रूप में है धूप
तेरी धूप है अनूप गोरिये
सजना से कहे आए लाज सजनी, छूने दे अंग मोहे आज सजनी
धूम ताना ता ना ता ना ना ना - 2,
धूम ताना धीर ना धीर ना


छलकी छलकी फिरती हूँ, छलकी छलकी सी फिरती हून
जिसपे यह मेरा कोई जाम है जैसे
नज़रें मिलाती हूँ ख्वाबों में समा जाती हूँ
दिल में बस जाना मेरा काम है जैसे
दिल में बस जा मैने रोका कब है
लेकिन क्या अरमान है मेरा यह तो समझाने दे
सजना से कहे आए लाज सजनी, छूने दे अंग मोहे आज सजनी
धूम ताना ता ना ता ना ना ना - 2,
धूम ताना धीर ना धीर ना

कैसे बंजारा मन की बात में आए, कैसे एक राजा को मनमीत बनाए
कैसे पहनु मैं प्यार का यह ताज सजना, करते तुम क्यू दिल पे राज सजना
धूम ताना ता ना ता ना ना ना - 2,
धूम ताना धीर ना धीर ना

मृगनैनी तू ना जाने, प्रेम कितना मेरे मॅन में है
यह बेचैनी मांगती है, रूप जो तेरे योवान्‍न में है
मेरे मीत तेरे गीत, तेरे गीत में है प्रीत
तेरी प्रीत मेरी जीत गोरिये
मेरी जीत में भी हार, मेरी हार में है प्यार
मेरे प्यार में इकरार गोरिये

भूल के सारे कामकाज सजनी, छ्छूने दे अंग मोहे आज सजनी
आए ना कैसे मोहे लाज सजना, छूना ना देखो मोहे आज सजना
धूम ताना ता ना ता ना ना ना - 2,
धूम ताना धीर ना धीर ना
फराह ख़ान की यह फिल्म शाहरुख़ के अभिनय पर टिकी है| दीपिका ने अपनी पहली हिन्दी फिल्म मे सराहनीय काम किया है और शाहरुख़ जैसे बड़े फिल्म सितारा होने के बावजूद अपनी छाप छोड़ी है| फिल्म के संवाद कहानी मे और मसाला लाते है हालांकि कुछ दृश्य हॉलीवुड फ़िल्मो से सीधे उठाए हुए है|

Introduction  :

Dushman is a 1972 Hindi film produced by Premji and directed by Dulal Guha. It is based on a novel by Veerendra Sharma. The film stars Rajesh Khanna in the title role and for which he received a Filmfare nomination as Best Actor, the only nomination for the film. Meena Kumari, Mumtaz, Bindu, Rehman, Asit Sen and Johnny Walker are part of the cast.

The film became a "super-hit" at the box office.

This film was remade in Tamil as Needhi in the same year (1972) starring Sivaji Ganesan and Jayalalithaa. The film was later remade into the Telugu film Khaidii Babay (1974) starring Shobhan Babu in the title role, and Vanisri as his love interest. It was also remade in Kannada as Hosa Theerpu (1983) with Ambareesh.

Summary :

Surjit Singh (Rajesh Khanna) earns a living driving a truck. He is a rash driver and more than usually also driving while drunk. One night he stops at the prostitute Chamelibai's (Bindu), spends the night with her, and gets up late the next morning. He rushes out and drives at breakneck speed in thick fog to make up for lost time while again drinking. He inevitably ends up running over and killing a farmer named Ram Din. But despite the opportunity to hit and run, he decides to stay and face the consequences. He is arrested by the police, charged, and brought before the courts.

Surjit acknowledges his guilt to the Judge (Rehman) who in-turn knows that he should send Surjit to prison for two years. But moved by the plight of Ram Din's family (which include his widow Malti (Meena Kumari); his sister Kamla (Kumari Naaz); two young sons; a crippled father Ganga Din (Nana Palsikar), and his blind mother (Leela Mishra)), and his inherent belief that imprisonment does not serve the good of the victim or the perpetrator, the Judge resolves to try a novel experiment of forcing Surjit to live with Ram Din's family and looking after their financial needs. A horrified Surjit attempts in vain to convince the Judge to change his ruling. He is transported to his new "prison" under police protection, where he is met by hostile villagers. Ram Din's family detest his presence, and call him "Dushman" (The enemy). Surjit attempts to escape on the first night, but is apprehended and brought back to serve his time.

He gradually comes to terms with the twist of fate that has forced him to become a subsistence farmer and live under the ever unforgiving eyes of Ram Din's family. Over time he starts sincerely working for the family and its interests. He meets Phoolmati Mumtaz, a happy-go-lucky girl who operates a small bi-scope machine to entertain the village kids. They take an instant liking to each other, which blossoms into love. He also finds friends amongst the previously hostile villagers. He works hard on the family plot while also protecting it from the clutches of a local landlord who has ill intentioned designs on the land and also on Kamla.

Surmounting many obstacles, Surjit is able to arrange the marriage of Kamla with her childhood sweetheart. With the help of a benevolent police force and the Judge, he is also able to thwart the many attempts of the landlord to seize the family's land, and that of other villagers who have mortgaged their land with the same landlord. Malti however, is unable to forgive Surjit for having killed her husband.

Things take a dramatic turn for the worse when Surjit is framed and arrested for the accidental death of Phoolmati's drunk grandfather. At the same time, the landlord has the lush harvest produced by Surjit and other villagers covertly set ablaze, and has Phoolmati kidnapped, primarily to punish Surjit. Malti, who has been working in one of the landlord's saw mills thinking he is an honourable man, witnesses his misdeeds, and finally realises her mistake. She is able to rescue Phoolmati but gets trapped by the landlord instead, who attempts to rape her. Meanwhile Surjit stages an escape from his holding cell and with the help of Phoolmati, is able to come to Malti's rescue in the nick of time. He confronts the landlord and violently assaults him as payback. The police show up and arrest the landlord for his role in defrauding the villagers and destroying their harvest.

Ram Din's family finally accept Surjit as one of their own, and arrange his marriage to Phoolmati. In a final twist though, his two years' imprisonment is complete, and the Police arrive to escort him back to town. He pleads with the Judge to let him serve a life sentence, and the Judge smiles, vindicated that his experiment has been successful.

    Summary :
     
    Ashok Mehra, played by Rajesh Khanna, is a wealthy industrialist, whose business produces cosmetic products. He is happily married to Purnima, played by Rekha, but she suffers complications after giving birth to their daughter, and the doctors are not able to save her life, leaving Ashok devastated. He is able to pull himself together and rediscover his will to live only because of his obligation to his daughter, Mini.

    Several years pass, and Ashok is able to resume his life as normal, except that he is unable to handle Mini’s (played now by Baby Shabana) envious pining for a mother to love her the way other children’s mothers love them. He is forced to lie to satisfy her, saying that it is possible that her mother will return from “God’s house”. Eventually, Mini becomes frustrated with waiting for her mother to return to her, and her behavior degrades severely, to the point that no school is willing to teach her, nor is any governess willing to deal with her.

    Meanwhile, Ashok’s business, while fairly successful, is unable to adequately compete with foreign cosmetics companies, because of their general superiority to Indian companies in the way of advertising. He hires Raj Bedi, a successful photographer in the modeling industry, played by Raj Babbar, to run his new advertising campaign. Mr. Bedi willingly accepts, as Ashok is one of few Indian businessmen willing to pay Bedi’s steep prices. Mr. Bedi finds a beautiful woman, named Radha, also played by Rekha, while scouting for model at the beach.

    At first, Radha is reluctant, but eventually Mr. Bedi is able to convince her to model for him in the Ashok Mehra campaign. Over the course of the project, the two fall in love, and eventually wed. Because Ashok Mehra’s model has now become his wife, Mr. Bedi is unwilling to give him the photos, and sells all of his personal possessions to arrange for the cost of backing out of the contract. Mr. Bedi’s reputation is ruined by Ashok as a result of this incomplete project, and his career takes a nosedive.

    In time, Mr. Bedi is able to build a modest, but decent life for Radha and himself by taking on small jobs. However, even this modest life is threatened when Mr. Bedi, in going to extreme lengths to take the best photos possible for a particular project, suffers a crippling fall. Radha decides to take on a job in order to run the house and save money for her husband’s treatment, but no one is willing to hire a married woman, whose primary focus will be her husband rather than her job. Eventually, she decides she is willing to lie about her marital status to get a job. Her job search leads her to Ashok Mehra’s office, where his associates are looking for a governess for Mini. She is offered the position instantly based on her uncanny resemblance to the late Mrs. Purnima Mehra, although this fact is hidden from her; his business manager, Shakur Ahmed, played by Madan Puri, simply tells her that he has a great feeling about her. Unwilling at first, holding Mr. Mehra responsible for her and her husband’s current situation, she is forced to accept the position, because Ashok’s associates are offering her far more money than she can make anywhere else.

    At first, Mini displays her usual poor behavior, but after watching Radha’s perseverance through her antics and devotion to her, and finally realizing that her mother will never return, Mini comes to feel that the void left by her mother has been filled. Even Ashok begins to feel that the void in his life is similarly being filled, and, being unaware that Radha is married, falls in love with her.

    As the relation between Radha and Mini grows beyond a professional one, and as Radha continues to keep her bedridden husband in the dark as to the details of her job, Mr. Bedi begins to suspect his wife’s marital integrity. Ashok’s attempts to grow closer to Radha, and Bedi’s interloping friend Chandu, played by Asrani, only serve to add to his suspicions. After a heated confrontation between Ashok, Mr. Bedi, and Radha, her and Mini’s relationship comes to an abrupt end.

    Ashok is unable to handle his obligation as a father to quell Mini’s obvious frustration with being deprived, once again, of a mother’s love, and sends her to live in a hostel. Another confrontation occurs between Radha and Ashok, and the two parties officially sever all ties.

    Feeling guilty for judging Radha as selfish, and feeling a sense of obligation to her for giving his daughter a mother’s love, Ashok learns that a lottery ticket that Radha had purchased through him has won the jackpot, and sends Shakur Ahmed to deliver her prize on his behalf. The lottery winnings are enough to pay for Mr. Bedi to be treated in America. Ashok meets the couple at the airport, and misconceptions between the three are cleared up. The movie ends with Ashok taking advantage of a delay in the Bedis’ flight to arrange for the adoption of Mini by Mr. and Mrs. Bedi, as he is unable to give her the love she desires and deserves. The last line of the movie is delivered painfully by Ashok Mehra, directed at both of Rekha’s characters: “I Loved you once, but lost you twice.”

यह लाल रंग कब मुझे छोड़ेगा – 2
मेरा ग़म कब तलक मेरा दिल तोड़ेगा

यह लाल रंग कब मुझे छोड़ेगा
किसी का भी लिया नाम तो आई याद तू ही तू – 2
यह तो प्याला शराब का बन गया यह लहू
यह लाल रंग कब मुझे छोड़ेगा
पीने की कसम दाल दी, पीऊँगा किस तरह – 2
यह न सोचा तुने यार मैं जीऊँगा किस तरह
यह लाल रंग कब मुझे छोड़ेगा
चला जाऊं कहीं छोडके मैं तेरा यह शहर, हाँ
चला जाऊं कहीं छोडके मैं तेरा यह शहर
न तो यहाँ अमृत मिले पीने को न ज़हर
यह लाल रंग कब मुझे छोड़ेगा
मेरा ग़म कब तलक, हो मेरा दिल तोड़ेगा
यह लाल रंग कब मुझे छोड़ेगा
