Amitabh Bachchan-Raakhee starrer Kabhie Kabhie completed 40 years and the megastar says people still request him to narrate the title track.
Bachchan, 73, who played a poet in the film, took to social media to say how much he missed the ethereal beauty of Kashmir and the company of extraordinary colleagues. "40 years of 'Kabhie Kabhie'...! And the strains of the music the poetry of the lyrics, the ethereal beauty of Kashmir and the company of extraordinary colleagues... And they still want to hear me recite the poem ..!! Strength of cinema!," he wrote on social media.
The film directed by Yash Chopra, which also starred Shashi Kapoor, Waheeda Rehman, Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh, was particularly noted for its soundtrack. They shot the film while also shooting the 1975 hit Deewar.
"Collected, managed, sewn together, in a most alluring cinema experience by the master of all that he did and make, Yash Chopra," the Piku star said. "It came about in the middle of the making of Deewar. A month here and a month there and we were done."
Bachchan also revealed that no one imagined "that the makers and the artists involved in both the projects, could be so diverse in such short a time".
