Remember Tere Mere Sapne which Vijay Anand directed for his brother Dev Anand’s Navketan Films? This 1971 cult film is said to be inspired by Dr. A Cronin’s 1937 novel, The Citadel, which laid the foundation for the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK a decade later. However, in a departure from the novel, the Anand brothers introduced a new track in the screenplay, bringing in Hema Malini who falls madly in love with Dev’s Dr Anand, drawing him away from his work, his principles, and even his wife, Nisha, played by Mumtaz. This sub-plot reportedly had a real-life muse in Vyjayanthimala’s romance with Dr. Chamanlal Bali. What lends credence to the rumors is the choice of name for Hema’s character, Maltimala, and the fact that like Vyjayanthimala, she too is a glamorous actress who suffers from severe migraine headaches brought on by st • At the outset, Vyjayanthimala, when you read her autobiography, comes across as a person who is so much in love with life. Every page of her autobiography speaks volumes about the passion she still has for ‘Bharatnatyam’. We are amazed at the amount of travel she has undertaken all these years and how even after her husband’s death (the charming and suave Dr. Chamanlal Bali), she has continued to dance and lead a peaceful life. She comes across a strong woman having resolute faith in herself and her abilities. One really wonders why did she ever stray into the big bad world of Hindi movies (Bollywood). |
