By the way, if you talk about loaded songs from superstars, you remember the song of Farah Khan and Shah Rukh Khan’s film Om Shanti Om. But there was a 1981 film in which stars like Raj Kapoor, Dharmendra, Prem Chopra, Rajesh Khanna to Randhir Kapoor were seen in only one song.
If it comes to the song of loaded from Bollywood stars, then immediately remember the song of Om Shanti Om of Farah Khan. Where there was a glimpse of dozens of stars from Dharmendra, Hema Malini, Juhi Chawla, Madhuri Dixit, Preity Zinta. But do you know when and how the trend of singing such stars started. Yes, such a trend started with Amitabh Bachchan’s film years ago. That film also proved to be a blockbuster.
In fact, in a song from Manmohan Desai’s film Naseeb in the year 1981, a lot of stars of Hindi industry were seen. A dozen stars were seen in the same frame. It is said that this musical number showed more than 15-20 stars cameo. Naseeb was an action film in which Amitabh Bachchan played the lead role.
Many stars were shown in the song ‘John Jani Janardan’ from the film Naseeb. It showed a glimpse of big stars like Raj Kapoor, Shammi Kapoor, Randhir Kapoor, Dharmendra, Rajesh Khanna, Rakesh Roshan, Vijay Arora, Waheeda Rehman, Sharmila Tegore, Mala Sinha, Bindu, Simi Grewal, Simple Kapadia to Prema Narayan. ‘John Jani Janardan’ was a big hit song in itself.
This song of Amitabh Bachchan went on for a week in RK Studio. The story is also very interesting behind making it. Director Manmohan Desai’s son Ketan Desai was 17 years old at that time. He recently shared the story of this song in an interview on YouTube. He told how his father showed a fair of stars in ‘John Jani Janardan’.
According to Ketan Desai, Manmohan Desai was talking to the writers during the film. Then he was asked that he had given so many hits, so why he lives so nervous. Then he said that you are looking at the current success but he is thinking about making a big hit from the previous hit. Then someone told him what could be bigger than a multi -starrer film. So he suddenly said that why not bring the entire industry to a scene. In this way the idea of singing multi -starrer came.
Amitabh Bachchan was playing a waiter in the film Naseeb. In such a situation, Manmohan Desai imagined why a party scene was kept in the hotel. Where all the stars will come and Amitabh will be in his own role.
Ketan Desai said that it took more than a week to make ‘John Jani Janardan’. It was not easy to make a song with all the stars. It looked like a fair. He had to get extra makeup room, washroom and many kinds of things. All kinds of arrangements were made from eating and eating full week. It seemed as if a fair would have been going on.
Talking about the song ‘John Jani Janardan’, it was sung by Mohammad Rafi. Like the song, Naseeb was also a blockbuster. At the same time, Manmohan Desai had made hit films like Amar Akbar Anthony, Dharam Veer, Parvarish and Kuli besides Naseeb.
