Ram Teri Ganga Maili

The last film Raj Kapoor completed before his death and, having watched it last night. It exudes the full force of his exemplary artistry and emotional intimacy in every flourish and vista. The heroine of Ganga, a human embodiment of the river of the same name. There's lot more to this movie than the exploitative scenes that have lead the talk since its release.

Raj Kapoor is supposed to be the ultimate showman of Bollywood. He does some justice to this image by choosing spectacular locales along with some great music and photography.

However, there is nothing new this movie offers. It's an unconvincing love story set right at the foot of Himalayas, between a rich guy and a poor girl. How they meet, get separated and finally get united in the end forms the core of the story.

Most of the Indians would remember this movie as the first one, at least the first blockbuster, where the heroine openly bares her breasts. (Such exposure is not very common in Indian movies.)

Apart from that dubious distinction, there is not much else.

The music is a blast and worth listening to. Give the movie itself a skip.

This movie name title wrong according to Hindu religion and lord , I like raj kapoor sahab acting from 1955 barsat , awara to till now Raj kapoor outstanding superstar in Hindi cinema , called Showman , he was actor , director , producer and writter , he Was done many blockbuster supeehit movies and collection across world 20lakh budget and 4cr collection 1.50cr from india , 2.5cr from Russia , like awara , shri 420 , Sangam , Barsat , anari, andaz , mera naam joker , chori chori he was support his brother and chids always like Ram teri ganga maili , satyam shivam sundram , Bobby this are the supportive blockbusters superhits.

It's a very emotional story of Ganga...from gangotri to the sangam. This movie relates the story of a Girl to the holy river Ganga. I think that it is difficult for Non-Indians to relate with movie but Indians must watch it.

The power of the movie lies in it's story and emotions. Kudos to the Showman. Mandakini (ganga) has also done a great work. But there was no need of nudity in such a movie. If it was not there, then more people would've watched this movie.

The movie is also reflects the black side of the Politics in India that contains people who just look for the benefit of their family. They have nothing to do with the Country. But their real face never comes in front of public.

It's a;so a true love story that shows that love is not the name of getting someone in your life, it is the sacrifice for the happiness of your loved ones.

Please watch this movie if you are an adult and an Indian.

Ram Teri Ganga Maili is one of the most iconic Bollywood films of the 1980s, directed by the legendary Raj Kapoor. Known for its emotional depth, soulful music, and bold storytelling, the movie remains a significant part of Indian cinema.

The story revolves around Narendra (Rajiv Kapoor), a young man from a political family, who falls in love with Ganga (Mandakini), an innocent girl from the mountains. Their love story takes a tragic turn when circumstances force Ganga to move to Kolkata, where she faces betrayal, exploitation, and the harsh realities of society. The film uses the character of Ganga as a metaphor for the sacred Ganges river, highlighting the theme of purity being corrupted by societal evils.
