FILM CAREER:

Kapoor started out with serious roles but with Filmistan's Nasir Hussain directed Tumsa Nahin Dekha (1957) opposite Ameeta and Dil Deke Dekho (1959) with Asha Parekh, he attained the image of a light-hearted, stylish playboy. Tall, athletic, lively, fair complexioned, green-eyed and with handsome features, Shammi was a heartthrob, and his good looks and physique complemented his image. Both the films were debut films of the respective actresses Ameeta and Asha Parekh and both went on to be big hits and are regarded as classics.

With Junglee (1961) his new image was cemented and his subsequent films were all in this genre. He particularly chose Mohammed Rafi as his playback voice. Though in his early career he had often played second fiddle to established heroines like Madhubala in films such as Rail Ka Dibba (1953) and Naqab and opposite Suraiya in Shama Parwana, producers after 1960 apart from the actresses from southern India, loved pairing Shammi with new heroines, three of them became huge stars in their own right in Hindi films: Asha Parekh, Saira Banu, and Sharmila Tagore.[4] Of all his heroines, he said that Sharmila Tagore, Rajshree, and Asha Parekh were easy to work with.[5] He and Asha Parekh were paired together in four films, the most successful being the murder mystery Teesri Manzil (1966) and romantic film Jawan Mohabbat.

In the early fifties he accepted serious roles in women oriented films like Shama Parwana (1954), comedy flick Mem Sahib (1956) and thrillers like Miss Coca Cola (1956) and Chor Bazar (1954), which were all successful at box office and in tragic love story Mirza Sahiban (1957) (a box office flop), but did not gain recognition and fame among the masses. Other than the above hits, he had fifteen films as flops to his credit till 1957. It was only after triple success of Tumsa Nahi Dekha (1957), Ujala and Dil Dil Deke Deko (both 1959), that he became popular with the audience and became a star. The other hits in late fifties included Mujrim(1958), Char Dil Char Rahen, Raat Ke Raahi (1959). In the first half of the 1960s, Kapoor was seen in successful films like College Girl, Basant, Singapore, Boy Friend, Professor, Dil Tera Diwana, Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya, China Town, Kashmir Ki Kali, Bluff Master, Janwar and Rajkumar. Although nominated before, in 1968, he received the first Filmfare Best Actor award of his career for the film Bramhachari.

His pairing opposite Southern heroines were always a success at the box office. He delivered hits opposite B. Saroja Devi like Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya and Preet Na Jane Reet, with Padmini gave Singapore (1960 film), opposite Vyjayanthimala had hits like College Girl and Prince (1969 film). In the sixties his successful run continued untill new romantic incon Rajesh Khanna entered the scene in 1969.[6]Sharmila Tagore and Saira Banu who made their Bollywood debuts with Shammi Kapoor in ‘Kashmir Ki Kali’ and ‘Junglee’ respectively[7] However Shammi did have commercial successes in late sixties, like Budtameez and Sachaai with Sadhana, Latt Saheb with Nutan, Tumse Achha Kaun Hai with Babita.

In the 1970s, Kapoor’s weight problem proved an obstacle in his path of success and ended his career as a romantic hero as his films started failing. His last hit film, in which he played the lead role, was Andaz (1971). With time, he moved to character roles and acted in films like Zameer, Hero and Vidhaata. In 1974, he donned the hat of a director and made Manoranjan, a film based on Irma La Douce. Two years later, he made Bandalbaaz (1976). However, both the films failed to create magic at the box office. His last appearance as a character actor was in the delayed 2006 film, Sandwich and in early 2011, he decided to act with his grand-nephew Ranbir Kapoor, the grandson of his brother Raj Kapoor.

Shammi turned into a successful supporting actor in the 70's, playing Saira Banu's father in Zameer (1974), when he had been her leading man a decade earlier in Junglee (1961) and Bluff Master (1964) and playing Amitabh Bachchan's foster father in Parvarish. He also directed Manoranjan (1974) a copy of Irma La Douce and in which he played a supporting role himself and Bundal Baaz (1976) starring Rajesh Khanna, but neither were successful commercially though got critical acclaims and were hailed as classics and to be ahead of its time. In the 1980s and 1990s, he continued to play supporting roles in many films and won a Filmfare Best Supporting Actor Award for his performance in Vidhaata (1982). He eventually cut down on film appearances by the late 1990s and early 2000s and made his appearances in the 1999 Salman Khan and Urmila Matondkar starring Jaanam Samjha Karo, 2002 release Waah! Tera Kya Kehna and delayed 2006 release Sandwich. He made his last appearance in Imtiaz Ali's directorial venture Rockstar co-starring his grand-nephew Ranbir Kapoor, the grandson of his brother Raj Kapoor.

Film director Shakti Samanta directed Shammi Kapoor in six hit films like Singapore, Pagla Kahin Ka, China Town, Kashmir Ki Kali, An Evening In Paris and Jaane Anjane and quoted in an interview “I found Shammi to be a thoroughly good man. Even in his heydays, he was humble."

PERSONAL LIFE:

Shammi Kapoor met Geeta Bali in 1955, during the shooting of the film ‘Rangeen Raaten’, where he was the leading actor and she played a cameo. They fell in love, but since she was a year older to him and had acted with his elder brother and father, they were skeptical. Four months after they first met, they married at Banganga Temples, near Napean Sea Road of Mumbai. Hari Walia as the sole witness. They informed their parents only after their marriage. Geeta Bali did cameo in Shammi starrers 'Rangin Raaten' and Mujrim(1958) and were paired together in Coffee House, a box office dud and the successful Miss Coca Cola.

Shammi and Geeta lived a life of bliss in the coming years. They had a son, Aditya Raj Kapoor, on 1 July 1956, at Shirodkar's Hospital, Mumbai, a year after they were married. Five years later, in 1961, they had a daughter, Kanchan.

Tragedy struck in 1965, during the filming of Teesri Manzil. Geeta died of small pox, leaving Shammi with two small children.

It led to a failed romance with Mumtaz, his co-star from Brahmchari (1968).

In 1969, he married his second wife Neela Devi Gohil from the former royal family of Bhavnagar in Gujarat. He was gaining weight rather significantly now and this ended his career as a romantic hero in the early 1970s. Andaz (1971) was one of his last hits.

Shammi Kapoor was the founder and chairman of Internet Users Community of India (IUCI). He had also played a major role in setting up internet organizations like the Ethical Hackers Association. Kapoor also maintained a website dedicated to the 'Kapoor family’.

In 2006, he told interviewers that he underwent dialysis three times a week. Irrepressible even then, this punishing regimen has failed to depress him. Rather, he said that he was thankful to God for giving him so much.

He died around 5:15 am, 14 August 2011 at Mumbai Breach Candy hospital, where he was undergoing treatment for chest infection. He died of renal failure

SHAMMI KAPOOR PASSED AWAY: OCT 21/31 - AUG 14/2011

Bollywood legend Shammi Kapoor may have yodelled his way into a million hearts, and won the 2009 Dadasaheb Phalke award for “lifetime contribution” to Indian cinema. But the man, celebrated as India’s Elvis Presley, missed the cut for the 2010 Padma Awards despite being recommended by the government-appointed Padma Search Committee.

This information was disclosed on February 24 to Subhash Chandra Agrawal, who filed an RTI (Right to Information) application with the Home Ministry seeking to know the procedure adopted for this year’s selection.

The Padma Awards Committee, the final arbiter, deleted Kapoor’s name from the Search Committee’s shortlist of 24. Also dropped were the names of tennis star Leander Paes, Drupad singers the Gundecha brothers, and painter S.G. Vasudev. Kapoor, the Gundecha brothers and Vasudev have never got a Padma award, while Paes, who recently won his 11th grand slam title, received the Padma Shri in 2001. Paes’ inclusion in the Search Committee’s shortlist implied an upgrade to Padma Bhushan.

Interestingly, the Search Committee also recommended the names of music composers A.R. Rahman and Ilaiyaraja, actor Rekha, and Nobel laureate Venkatraman Ramakrishnan. All four made it to the Padma list.

The Search Committee, comprising senior bureaucrats, was constituted by the Centre with the idea that deserving candidates should not miss out on the Padma honours for want of a recommendation. Its shortlist was to act as the starting point for the Awards Committee. However, the Awards Committee accepted only 12 of the 24 names given to it.

Kapoor, now 78, ruled Hindi cinema for much of the 1960s and 1970s, and popularised a style of dancing that has since spawned many imitations. In a career spanning over five decades, he won four Filmfare awards, besides numerous lifetime achievement awards.

The Gundecha brothers are considered the nearest equivalent to the Dagar brothers. They run an international school for Drupad singing in Bhopal and have been honoured with the Dagar Gharana Award.

Vasudev is an artist of international eminence. In 1967, he won the Lalit Kala Academy’s National Award, and in February this year, he was conferred the prestigious KCS Panikker Award instituted by the Kerala Lalit Kala Academy.

Tumne kisi ki Jaan ko jaate hue dekha hain
You have seen the departing of my jaan/friend
Wo dekhon mujhse ruth kar meri Jaan jaa rahi hain
Look! there my beloved is leaving in a hurry

Keya jaane kish kusour ki di hain mujhe sazaye
I do not know for what offence I have been punished for
Deewana kar rahi hain tauba shikan aadaye
This vow breaking elegance is driving me crazy
Zulfon mein muh chhupa kar
Hiding her face behind the tresses
Mujhko lubha rahi hain
She is seducing me
Wo dekhon mujhse ruth kar meri Jaan jaa rahi hain
Look! there my beloved is leaving in a hurry

Tumne kisi ki Jaan ko jaate hue dekha hain
You have seen the departing of my jaan/friend
Wo dekhon mujhse ruth kar meri Jaan jaa rahi hain
Look! there my beloved is leaving in a hurry

Ghabra rahi hain khud bhi Bechain ho rahi hain
Being jittery herself she is so much restless
Aapne hi khoune dil mein daman doubon rahi hain
With her own bleeding heart she is ruining her garment
Bejaan rahe gaaye ham
Lifeless friends we remain
Woh muskura rahi hain
She is smiling
Wo dekhon mujhse ruth kar meri Jaan jaa rahi hain
Look! there my beloved is leaving in a hurry

Tumne kisi ki Jaan ko jaate hue dekha hain
You have seen the departing of my jaan/friend
Wo dekhon mujhse ruth kar meri Jaan jaa rahi hain
Look! there my beloved is leaving in a hurry

Masti bhadi ghataaon ab jaake roklon tum
O intoxicated clouds please go and stop her now
Tumko meri Kasam hain samjhake roklon tum
Upon my oath, reason with her to stop
Usski judai dil par
Her departure is on my heart
Nastar chala rahi hain
Which is striking me like an arrow
Wo dekhon mujhse ruth kar meri Jaan jaa rahi hain
Look! there my beloved is leaving in a hurry

Tumne kisi ki Jaan ko jaate hue dekha hain
You have seen the departing of my jaan/friend
Wo dekhon mujhse ruth kar meri Jaan jaa rahi hain
Look! there my beloved is leaving in a hurry

Meri Jaan jaa rahi hain
My love is leaving in a hurry

Haath chhudaake chali ho
My hand went, letting go

Asha
Oh, ji haan zara yeh bhi kahiye
Yes sir, why don't you say this also
Aag lagaake chali ho, oh
That it went setting fire

8) O HASEENA ZULFON WALE JAANE JAHAAN

Rafi
(O haseena zulfon waali jaane jahan
Oh beautiful haired girl, darling
Dhoondti hai kaafir aankhen kiska nishaan)2
Whose presence are your wandering eyes searching for?
(Mehfil mehfil ae shama, phirti ho kahan)2
From crowd to crowd like a candle, why are you going around?

Asha
Voh anjaana dhoondti hoon, voh deewana dhoondti hoon
I am searching for that unknown one, for that crazy one
Jalaakar jo chhip gaya hai, voh parwaana dhoondti hoon
The one who has burned and hidden, I am searching for that moth

Garm hai, tez hai yeh nigaahein meri
These eyes of yours are eager and sharp

Rafi
Kaam aa jaayegi sard aahein meri
My cool sighs will come of use

Asha
Arre tum kisi raah mein to miloge kahin
Oh I will meet you somewhere in some street

Rafi
Arre ishq hoon, main kahin theherta hi nahin
I am, love, I don't even stop anywhere

Asha
Main bhi hoon galiyon ki parchhaai, kabhi yahan kabhi vahan
I am an oasis, sometimes I am here, sometimes there
Shaam hi se kuch ho jaata hai mera bhi jaadu jawaan
From evening itself my magic becomes youthful

Rafi
Ae, o haseena zulfonwaali jaane jahan
Oh beautiful haired girl, darling
Dhoondti hai kaafir aankhen kiska nishaan
Whose presence are your wandering eyes searching for?
(Mehfil mehfil ae shama, phirti ho kahan)
From crowd to crowd like a candle, why are you going around

Asha
Voh anjaana dhoondti hoon, voh deewana dhoondti hoon
I am searching for that unknown one, for that crazy one
Jalaakar jo chhip gaya hai, voh parwaana dhoondti hoon
The one who has burned and hidden, I am searching for that moth
Haan dil vil pyaar vyaar yunhi badnaam hai
The heart, love, as it is they are ill-reputed

Rafi
Aisi badnaamiyon ka vafa naam hai
Such notoriety is called faithfulness

Asha
Oh oh oh, qatl kar ke chale, yeh vafa khoob hai
Oh, killing and then leaving, this faithfulness is lovely

Rafi
Haai naadaan teri yeh ada khoob hai
Oh, this ignorance of yours is lovely

Asha
Main bhi hoon galiyon ki parchhaai, kabhi yahan kabhi vahan
I am an oasis, sometimes I am here, sometimes there
Shaam hi se kuch ho jaata hai mera bhi jaadu jawaan
From evening itself my magic becomes youthful

Rafi
Hey, o haseena zulfonwaali jaane jahan
Oh beautiful haired girl, darling
Dhoondti hai kaafir aankhen kiska nishaan
Whose presence are your wandering eyes searching for?
O haseena zulfonwaali jaane jahan
Oh beautiful haired girl, darling
Dhoondti hai kaafir aankhen kiska nishaan
Whose presence are your wandering eyes searching for?
Mehfil mehfil ae shama, phirti ho kahan - 2
From crowd to crowd like a candle, where are you going around

Asha
Voh anjaana dhoondti hoon, voh deewana dhoondti hoon
I am searching for that unknown one, for that crazy one
Jalaakar jo chhip gaya hai, voh parwaana dhoondti hoon
The one who has burned and hidden, I am searching for that moth
