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.

This film has the lot: romance, action and hit songs. Manoj Kumar undoubtedly holds the lead role, but as far as show-stealing goes, Premnath's 'Sardar Harnam Singh' has to down as one of the greatest character portrayals, ever.

Not only did he recite some of Sikhism's holiest 'prayers' fluently but was also allowed to swear (rather frequently) in Punjabi. Which, both added that extra class to his performance.

His role was so widely acclaimed amongst Punjabis, that whenever Premnath was to visit Punjab, any services or goods he may require were given free of charge!

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..

This is an indian movie. Indian movies are a 3 hr mix of action, drama, humor, and musical. This may seem long. But if a movie is as good as Roti Kapada Aur Makaan, you will not notice it. This movie has some of the greatest actors of the indian cinema. A lot of social and political issues are being portrayed, which even after 26 years haven't changed that much. But if you do not like the moral tone in the movie there is enough action to keep a lot of you satisfied. One special relationship (in the movie) has to be mentioned. The oldest brother of one very poor family (the main character, Manoj Kumar) is the one with a degree, but is not able to get a good job. On the other side is his younger brother (my favorite, Amitabh Bachchan) who earns his money a little bit illegally and as a consequence gets judged and punished by his brother. So Amitabh decides to go join the army to make amends.

This is really fun to watch. Although Amitabh hasn't got a very big part, he really steals the show. Oh yeah there is a lot of romance going on, but it never gets boring. Watch it!

If compared with other Indian commercial films, Roti Kapada Aur Makaan does not have much flow.

I'm not sure about the status and the financial conditions of the Indian singers at the present time. But this film indicates that, during the 70's, even the best singers would get nowhere with their talents.

In this film, Manuj Kumar is a singer with a legendry voice (Mukesh), yet he has neither fame nor money.

If talented singers did make a good living out their arts in India during the 70's, then this is perhaps the film's big flaw.

But overall, Roti Kapda Aur Makaan is probably one of Bollywood's few films that actually makes sense.

The direction, acting and story line are superb. The songs are related to the story, and are always inspiring to listen to.

Most Bollywood's films are hardly watch able, but it will be a pleasure to watch this one more than twice.
