A Fantastic Film

This movie is one of my personal favorites and is, in my opinion, one of the most romantic movies of Rajesh Khanna. The story line is quite simple but the charisma of Rajesh Khanna, the songs of Kishore and the music of RD Burman are pure magic.

This movie could be watched merely for the voice of Kishore and the music of RD Burman. "Kitne Sapne Kitne Armaan" is a gem: watch out for the spectacular entry of Rajesh Khanna at the start of that song and the magic yodeling of Kishore. The other gem is "Oh Mere Dil Ke Chain". This song is just sublime and one of the greatest, if not the greatest, romantic song of Kishore. The final Kishore tour-de-force, "Deewana Leke Aya Houn", conveys tremendous pathos and is nothing short of breathtaking.

Movies like Mere Jeevan Saathi come only once in a lifetime, like several others during that era. If you can relate to that era, watching it will move you again and again, with a tinge of sadness for a bygone period not to be found again, like it has done for me...

Good movie

I have seen this movie 2 times. It is superb. When I saw this movie for the first time 29 yrs ago, I couldn't recognize Helen because she looked different in each scene of this movie. In one scene, she would have black hair and in another scene, she would have brown hair or reddish hair. I seriously thought they were all different women because of their different hairstyles. It turned out they were all actually Helen. She was very fashionable and gorgeous here. Rajesh Khanna and Tanuja acted well. This movie was made around 1971 during Rajesh Khanna's height of fame. Reportedly, he was late to the sets of this film. Bindu had a small role here but she acted very well. One thing I didn't like about this movie was the length of this movie. It could have been reduced without the unnecessary comic side-plot. Other than that, I recommend this movie.

Romantic Musical at its best

Mere Jeevan Saathi will surely be remembered for 1 thing - the magic of the kaka-RD-Kishore trio.

The film has an interesting storyline with some solid performances. Helen gets an opportunity to act & she has done well. She even dominates kaka in some of the scenes. The photography, camera locations & production values are good.

Rajesh Khanna is at his handsomest best. Many feel that it was amitabh who started the trend of tying the shirt's end into a knot & starting that fashion. They are wrong. Kaka does that & has tried some other styles also. The costume designer deserves special mention here.

Kaka has given a very good performance, particularly the sequences where he has lost his eyesight.

The only minus is Tanuja who looks like kaka's elder sister. Also, there is no comedy track as such.

In spite of all this, the film did not do well at the box office which is a mystery.

However, the film will always be remembered for the excellent music by R.D.

Camp Classic

This movie is a camp classic. My friends and I have basically seen every American and other English-speaking "bad" movie - the kinds that are fun to watch with a group of people (Ed Wood movies, Doris Wishman's Nudie films of the Sixties, Killer dolls, Leprechauns, Manster, Head transplant movies, gore films of the 1960s, biker flicks, GatorBait, etc.) So, noe we have moved into the International film world and of course, India has an amazing film industry that curns out much product. "Bollywood" as it is called has made some great stuff but this one particluar gem not only captures the horrid clothes, colors and hair styles of the early 1970's - it also shows the weird mix of India/Western Culture as the story of rich boy who only wants to be a serious painter and enters the world of high art and fancy women has to be seen to believed. Fun, lively, bad, horrible hair styles, it's a hoot. The copy I saw had bad patches of quality in the print but it was subtitled well. FUN!!!

Trivia
Producer Harish Shah thrashed Manoj Kumar in his book. The distributor pleaded with Harish to delay his film Mere Jeevan Sathi and not release it with Shor. Rajesh was a super star in those days. The distributor agreed to give Harish the Bombay theatre Apsara to release his film provided he not release the film with Shor and release it the following week. Harish finally gave in and agreed. On the weekend Mere Jeevan Saathi released ,Harish went to visit Apsara theatre and saw the entire tickets were bought and now being sold for a cheaper low rate of rupees 25 by the black ticket scalper boys. This way the collections of Mere Jeevan Saathi would be low. Harish asked them why they were doing this to sabotage his film. They told Harish they were paid to do this. Upon further asking he found out it was Manoj Kumar who was playing this game. Manoj did not want competition from a Rajesh Khanna film. Manoj had bought the tickets and now selling it at a bad rate. A few months later Manoj feeling guilty sent a offer to act in Harish Shah's future film. Harish gave him a piece of his mind and declined the offer.
