Aah
Director: Raja Nawathe
Starring: Nargis, Pran, Raj Kapoor, Vijayalakshmi
Music Director: Shanker Jai Kishan
Singers: Mukesh
If Raj (Raj Kapoor) had his way, he would have been a poet, not the engineer
that circumstances made him into. The perfection of nature fascinated him more
than the nature of mechanical things. One day Raj is sent to work at the
Saraswati Dam, the exquisitely beautiful location. As Raj reveled in his
newfound paradise, his father visits him and tells him about his deceased
mother's wish that Raj should marry Chandra (Vijay Laxmi), the sophisticated
daughter of a rich family friend. On his father's insistence, Raj agrees to
write to Chandra. The letter is sheer poetry, but it's beauty completely wasted
on Chandra who wants to ignore it. Neelu (Nargis), her teenage sister, moved by
the writer's eloquence and sincerity, acknowledges the letter on her behalf.
Neelu's reply sparks off a correspondence and then circumstances that lead Neelu
and Raj falling deeply in love. Just when it seems that they will live happily
ever after, Raj is diagnosed suffering from TB, a disease that killed his
mother. A shocked Raj decides that he loves Neelu too much to commit her to an
uncertain future and deceives her into believing that he actually loves Chandra.
Does Neelu ever find out Raj's selfless love for her? Will the two lovers be
united again? Aah is an early Raj Kapoor classic, a poignant love story which
includes one of Mukesh/s finest renditions "Chhoti si zindagani" picturised on
Mukesh himself as a "tongawallah", carting an ailing Raj Kapoor.
