After a long time, I saw an Eastman Colour movie 'Mahal' of Devanand. It's a suspense thriller and I really enjoyed it. It brought back many childhood memories, when we used to watch old Hindi movies on Saturday/Sunday evenings in DD. Lovely days and beautiful movies. Not even a single movie of today can bring back those sweet days of yesterdays. What's your opinion?
Share your memories too....those golden days before the arrival of cable TV.

Its not Just "Something" special. Hindi movies and all other regional movies of yesteryear have many many things of special qualities. About these special qualities only a connoisseur can tell and talk about those special qualities.That was an Era, that cannot be repeated.
Though the movies of present days are much improved where technical aspects like photography and sound effects are concern, old movies had their old charms. I too enjoy watching old movies. Those were the days when the movies actually had good story line and good songs with good lyrics.

Technical aspects of a film will not live in your heart for a long time, but a movie like Dosti that hasn't got any technical values live in your heart for eternity.

Ya, that's the reason why some B/W movies still stay in our heart. Now such movies like Mughal-E-Azam, Naya Daur etc are available in colour version. Yet we remember their original versions :)

It may be some sweet memories that bind us with our past and childhood days. that's the reason why we treasure old movies, not for their technical features or story line.

Not exactly, at least for me. My liking of old movies was on pure merit of the picture. They are real heart stealers

lovely tunes, lyrics and singers of golden era..these are the factors that attracted me towards Bollywood...particularly Shammi's and Rajesh Khanna's movies.
am saying about my childhood thoughts. Later, Lataji became the most important factor of my attraction towards old.
AI have seen so many movies that I can't count. I remember that in early eighties I was in Assam. I made it a point not to miss any Hindi movie. So the black ticket seller also got advance from me. He would reserve a ticket for me and sell only after waiting for me for half an hour after commencement of show.

Well before Lata, the golden era started. . Nurjehan was the craze of that era and she was appropriately called as "Malika- e- Tarunnum, the queen of melody
