In 2012, the movie made it to the list of All-Time 100 greatest films by TIME. What’s more? The film sold over 200 million tickets overseas. It was nominated for the Grand Prize at a time when many of us didn’t even know about the prestigious film festival. We probably didn’t pay attention to this fact but Awaara entered the Cannes Film Festival in 1953.
Awaara (1951) Where to watch: YouTubeĬast: Prithviraj Kapoor, Nargis, Raj Kapoor, Leela Chitnis, KN Singh, Shashi Kapoor To relive the simpler times, watch these classic black-and-white Hindi movies that remain relevant decades later and still leave you impressed. There weren’t great stunts and illusions, but there were strong plots, great music and brilliant acting. That was the age when cinema was away from technologies like graphics, VFX and even the vivid colors that appeal to the eye. Remember the times when cinema had vintage feels too? You might not be born in the era, but watching those black-and-white movies will make you feel a great connection with the simpler times.
For you simpler things in life matter the most, and in those things you find happiness. Are you one of those people who love reading paper books instead of ebooks simply because you love the smell of books? Does the smell of rain falling on dry soil make you more relaxed in comparison to the smell of an essential oil or perfume? Does RD Burman’s music make you happy in a way no one else can? If the answers to all these questions are a big 'Hell yes', then you, my friend, are an old soul with a vintage heart.
