GEETA MERA NAAM (My Name is Geeta)
Mad Villain who carries around a stuffed monkey from his childhood, and slides his enemies into boiling wax to turn them into statues. Fantastic song in the bad guy's lair, where Geeta is being whipped, while two dancers do a number in a giant bubble bath, for no apparent reason. It's stuff like this, outrageously inventive and colorful, that makes these films a treat. The woman in the silver outfit is the wonderful 'Helen' (no last name), and the man also appears in a dance number in ROOP TERA MASTANA, but neither otherwise appears in the movie. The music is less western sounding than much of the material on this site, but still accessible to western ears: it's a good way of getting into the more traditional stuff. The tagline for this film is 'An R.K. Nayyar idea of a Motion Picture'. Well, all I can say is I like the way he thinks!
