Tere Ghar Ke Samne

Tere Ghar Ke Samne (1963) : Brief Review -

One of the finest rom-coms from the 1960s and a great influence on Indra Kumar's Dil (1990). Vijay Anand has written a script that's not very popular but has been remade and adopted too many times. That's how influential it is, and it definitely stands the test of time. You must have seen Indra Kumar's Dil, where a boy and a girl fall in love, but their fathers are great rivals. Well, Vijay Anand did it long ago and much better, I feel. The film is about an architect, Rakesh Kumar (Dev Anand), who is hired to build a house by Sulekha (Nutan). They fall in love, but the problem is that their fathers hate each other and always try to put each other down. What's more is that Rakesh is building both houses, one for Suli's father and the other for his own father, and interestingly, both finalise the same design. That's how the title came, I guess-Tere Ghar Ke Samne. It was easy to get the song done with the same lyrics, but getting such a beautiful song wasn't that easy. There is another lovely song in the film that I know has become a cult: Dil Ka Bhawar Kare Pukar, and that too in Qutub Minar. Just wow. The film has some hilarious segments that I believe are some of the best for any comedy movie back then. The auction scene in the beginning, Rakesh being misunderstood as a goon by Sulekha, Rakesh trying to have a conversation with both parties at the same time, and so many others. The film has a fantastic comedy in the first half but lacks the same impact in the second half. Things go a little slow towards the end, but it was important to have such a climax for the 60s. You know that many parents think that they are smarter than their children, even though the children are much more educated and socialized. Letting them know that they were backward was the need of the hour. Vijay Anand did that for us, and that too through a romantic comedy. He balanced both commercial and social cinemas to very well. Enjoy it.

RATING - 7/10*

You sometimes have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince, and over the years I've fidgeted through more than my fair share of Bollywood Blockbusters in the interest of film scholarship as they interminably stretched on and on into the small hours of the morning on Channel 4; usually taking an absolute eternity to tell a very simple story. The songs to me all sound alike, so I just fast forward through them. But as a stuffy Brit, I was never the audience these films were meant for in the first place...

However, my diligence paid off about twenty years ago when I stumbled across this beauty, which I absolutely loved! Even more remarkably it actually contains a song which I'm capable of humming! It's called 'Dil Ki Manzil', a vibrant cabaret number sung by Asha Bhosle and performed on screen by a statuesque young dancer named Helga.

Ironically, because of it's age - and it's in black & white - most of my Hindi co-workers have either never seen it or are only very vaguely aware of it. But it certainly gets my vote!

The movie is really good.the best part of movie is music of S D Berman and the direction of Vijay Anand.Vijay Anand has given us some of the best movie of that time like guide, Teesari Manzil, Rajput and jewel thief that show the versatility of director. this movie is romantic comedy and u will love to see it and till climax u will not able to know how Nutan's family and Dev's family going to accept each other. some serious moment come at the end of film otherwise film was pure comedy.

story is Dev Anand is architecture who is making a bungalow of Nutan's father but the same design is like by his father who is rival of Nutan's father and he insist to make bungalow in front of Nutan's bungalow.think's start going more funnier when both family like Dev and Nutan but they don't know they are rival's children. when they know put restriction which is worthless. one of the most emotional ending where both family agree for marriage of their children for sake of their children's future and love.

"Tere Ghar Ke Saamne" is a Hindi romantic comedy film directed by Vijay Anand. The movie was released in 1963 and starred Dev Anand and Nutan in the lead roles.

The story revolves around Rakesh (Dev Anand), a talented architect, and Sulekha (Nutan), a wealthy heiress. Rakesh dreams of constructing a modern building in the heart of Mumbai but faces obstacles due to his rivalry with Seth Karamchand (Om Prakash), Sulekha's father. However, fate brings Rakesh and Sulekha together when she hires him to design a house for her. As they work together on the project, their initial conflicts turn into friendship, and eventually, love blossoms between them.

One of the notable aspects of the film is its delightful blend of romance and comedy. Dev Anand delivers a charismatic performance as the charming and witty Rakesh, while Nutan portrays Sulekha's character with grace and elegance. Their on-screen chemistry is captivating and adds depth to their characters' evolving relationship.

The film's screenplay is well-written, with a good balance between light-hearted moments and emotional depth. The dialogues are witty and humorous, keeping the audience engaged throughout. The music by S. D. Burman is another highlight of the movie, with memorable songs like "Dil Ka Bhanwar Kare Pukar" and "Aye Meri Zohra Jabeen."

Vijay Anand's direction brings out the charm of Mumbai, capturing its bustling streets and iconic landmarks. The film's colorful cinematography and well-choreographed dance sequences enhance its visual appeal.

Overall, "Tere Ghar Ke Saamne" is a delightful romantic comedy that still holds its charm today. The performances, engaging storyline, and memorable music make it an enjoyable watch for fans of classic Hindi cinema.

Tere Ghar Ke Samne is all time enjoyable movie. Though it is black and white, it is very interesting movie. I appeal all people of all age to watch this movie at least once. The story is superb with happy end. Songs are also fantastic and will be liked by those who have got Rafi and Lata in their list of favorite singers. Devanand and Nutan are at best in their performance. Om Prakash and Harindranath have also performed well in their comedy roles. Music by S.D. Burman is very melodious. The dialoges are very comedy and film has been excellently directed. It has been directed by Vijay Anand. Vijay Anand has also directed other successful films like Guide, Jewel Thief, Jhony Mera Naam etc. Worth watching once.
