Roti Kapada Aur Makaan

In 70's this movie had a song on picturised on premnath who had a major role "baki jo bachha tha mehngai mar gayi.... " and there was not political issue on it. In fact this song fits for today's time in 2022. Imagine the politics if such songs if made today. Well this movie is one of the best from Manoj kumar factory better than purab pashchim and upkaar. RKAM is entertainment typical entertaining bollywood movie with a bit of political, social message. Songs are terrific " Main na bhoolonga... " Is still a chart buster, very well picturised. Zeenat, moushmi as leading ladies had good role with slight negative shade in zeenat's character, they did good job. Manoj kumar, sashi kapoor are good, surprisingly premnath in character of sardar was liked a lot by audience. Amitabh in small role as this was beginning of his career does a good job. Aruna Irani 's song "panditji mere marne... " Is too good but not many know about nor it's played today but it can be said it's a very good song with good lyrics, music, choreography and Aruna did fantastic job. Watch it if you are looking for entertainment.

Review By Kamal K

Very futuristic film. Film is a realistic approach towards life. And one can connect with it in real life.

I felt deep and applauded for great meaningful songs that depicts todays life and the life's situations. And the cost of things with our basic need of money, house, love, food & for that one needs to work & do a job. Legendary Manoj Kumar really felt a awesome mark on our hearts who loves such a Classic films. A must watch for who understand the truth of life & it's struggle.

I love to watch all movies of Manoj Kumar sir. Can anyone suggest me where I can watch all of his movies paid sites will be OK. But plz suggest me.. I am searching from many days but I am not getting any paid links or free links to watch. Upkar, sanyasi, Roti Kapada aur Makaan, etc. I want to watch all of his movies..

U are a jobless youth with many mouths to feed. U brazenly flaunt your education degree but what's the point? U won't compromise on your ideologies; hence u fail to get a job. Your partner abandons you for an affluent guy. Your sister remains unmarried. Your father expires due to deficiency of medical attention. In short, your life is the pits. But since u are #ManojKumar, u will triumph against all odds and protect your country. Any kid born in the 60s and 70s will unquestionably grasp the essence of #RotiKapadaAurMakaan (1974). Lyrics and music are outstanding. Running time needs to be reduced by 20 minutes. Rating 3/5.

Of course, In Tamil nadu in 1974 very few schools taught Hindi. Fortunately I studied in the ISC stream, and so could understand the movie to a large extent. This movie, though released in 1974, we could see it only in 1975 summer,as we were in rural tamil nadu.

1974 was very troublesome for youngsters of the country.There was no clear direction for us. TV was unknown then.at least in Tamil Nadu.We had very few role models. Traditional heroes of tamil films for not talking of honesty and trustworthiness. There was this Railways strike In the news we were constantly bombarded with cases streaking " running without dress"; including Indian cities. This movie helped us to have role models. There were several of them. Of course sardarji was one. The jawan who dies suppressing his cough. zeenath having the gun wound yet expressing love. Moushmi chatterji fighting injustice in the end. people views on the same scene differ. Amitabh driving with a single hand was sorry...is thrilling even to think of it. Amitabh as a college student getting slap for trying to join with wrong forces in the beginning of the movie, all very vivid in the memory,for I had to see the movie in theaters. I enjoyed every bit. I saw two times. I don't mind if the movie was too cinematic. We need such stories to stimulate our younger generation. Now I am a community based paediatrician with 25 years experience. I will certainly recommend to my children
