It is talked about when the country was independent two years ago. Raj Kapoor brought the film in 1949- rain. Whose first song was- Fly in the air… My red scarf of muslin… On the screen, a young man waving her dupatta… jumping jumping… below the open sky sings with a flying flying with a sharp wind… Flain here and there… My red scarf of muslin… Fafar flew flew Chunariya veil opening… The consciousness of independence in the filming of this song, written by Ramesh Shastri and prepared with Shankar Jaikishan, is going to awaken the spirit of National and International Women’s Day for years. Raj Kapoor tried to show more freedom through this song than female oriented women like untouchable girl or farmer Kanya. This increased the attraction in the audience towards the rain.
The time after independence, the open sky, the backdrop of the valley and the dupatta in the winds. All the female characters in their films, Raj Kapoor later, can be seen in the scene of this song. Later on, Awara, Sri 420, Sangam, Satyam Shivam Sundaram, Mera Naam Joker, Ram Teri Ganga Maili… etc. In all, the life and life of women for them were the lives of their films. And the same initiative was also in his most popular blockbuster film Bobby. In which Dimple Kapadia declared herself a 21st century girl.
New thinking and new perspective
Raj Kapoor was the one who first presented the characters of women in cinema with new thinking and new perspective. His heroines for the showman have never been girlfriends. She was going to attack the traditions as well as the garden garden or the frame. The character of Nargis in rainy, Awara and Sri 420 also gives Raj Kapoor the right and wrong learning. But here in detail the talk of Bobby because when the film comes in the seventies, there is a tornado in the society. Bobby was not just a film but was a modern gateway of Love and Liberation.

Darbari wall crossed bobby
Apart from Laila Majnu, the rebel fever of love is equally seen in Bobby. Coincidentally, both the films were the lead actor Rishi Kapoor. Laila Majnu’s love story was carrying royal getup, while Bobby was a love story of Hindi whose environment was out of the royal boundary. In this case, Bobby crosses the wall of the court. Kamsin C Bobby becomes so close to the hearts of the people of his city and neighborhood that the new generation role model-C is made from house to house. The seventies decade was also socially filled with new restless people. There was outside in the gardens, but urban innovation was also taking birth. The explosion of the repressed desires of this innovation was seen in Bobby.
Bobby with boyfriend on bike
The picture of a teenager in a mini skirt on Bobby’s poster shocked the tradition. The Raj Kapoor, who had made the female liberation consciousness from the song in 1949 itself… by the song, its form had changed even more. Bobby roams the city with her boyfriend sitting on a motorcycle, goes to the restaurant, the girl’s household members send the picture with her boyfriend to see the picture and she is closed with the lover in the same room. At that time, probably a heroine says for the first time in a film- she is a 21st century girl. She can live freedom. He is an adult and also the owner of his life. It was the time of 1973.
First 21st century slogan
I am sure that the 21st century slogan in politics and social movements would hardly have been raised by anyone. But a Kamsin heroine of Bobby raised this about this. Obviously, there was an explosion of ideas in that dialogue of the heroine. He found a young man who loved his age who wanted him with heart. In the feeling of love, such a loud voice and thoughts of the heroine were not seen earlier. Khwaja Ahmed Abbas successfully brought that concept of Raj Kapoor to screen play.
Later, when Raj Kapoor brought films like Prem Rog and Ram Teri Ganga Maili, he also gives the message of self -reliance and self -respect of women. Love disease advocates widow marriage so that after the death of the husband, the life of a young woman can be restored again in the mainstream. He should not be a victim of the old tradition. Similarly, in Ram Teri Ganga Maili, Raj Kapoor takes sarcasm at the river and the destiny of the woman and present a progressive attitude.
