Silsila: The movie portraying real-life relationships ?

Silsila was a movie that seemed way ahead of its time. It was released on August 14, 1981, and starring a powerful star cast; Shashi Kapoor, Amitabh Bachchan, Jaya Bhaduri, Rekha, Sanjeev Kumar, and others. The movie was even more sensational because the movie was rumoured to be about a relationship between Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha, with an equally strong rumour about an actual real-life relationship between the two.
However, the movie did not work well at the box office, with the most probable reason being that the audience was not ready for th depiction of an adulterous relationship between Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha (when both of them were married to other people). The movie had some great music, with good songs and some great dialogue. The music was by Shiv-Hari, with lyrica by Javed, Rajendra Krishan, Nida Fazli, Hassan Kamal. You can see the flourish of Yash Chopra's direction, with a movie that seems almost like a poem, a romance story on a large scale. Performances by the various actors is great, and give the story great strength.
The movie is about the love story between Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha, a story that flourishes twice, and yet is destined to fail. The first time they meet is when Amitabh goes to Kashmir to meet his army officer brother Shashi Kapoor and his fiancee Jaya Bachchan. There Amitabh meets Rekha, and it is love at first sight. However, Shashi Kapoor dies in action, and it is then revealed that Jaya is pregnant. To care for his brother's fiancee and the baby, Amitabh sacrifices his love and marries Jaya, telling Rekha to forget him. Rekha eventually gets married to a doctor (Sanjeev Kapoor), a loving man.
And it happens. Amitabh and Rekha meet again, and the old passion gets ignited. They meet often, and are soon involved in a passionate affair (with the twist that they are both betraying their spouses). Their spouses are soon suspicious, while Amitabh and Rekha decide to leave their partners. However, at this time, Dr. Sanjeev Kumar is involved in a place accident, and needs support and help. This time, both lovers decide to make the ultimate sacrifice and go back to their respective spouses.

Lyrics:

Dekha Ek Khwab

Dekha Ek Khwaab To Yeh Silsile Hue
Door Tak Nigahon Mein Hain Gul Khile Hue
Yeh Gila Hai Aapki Nigahon Se
Phool Bhi Ho Darmiyaan To Faasle Hue
Dekha Ek Khwaab...

Meri Saanson Mein Basi Khushboo Teri
Yeh Tere Pyaar Ki Hai Jadugari
Teri Aawaz Hai Havaaon Mein
Pyar Ka Rang Hai Phizaaon
Dhadkanon Mein Tere Geet Hain Mile Hue
Kya Kahun Ke Sharm Se Hain Lub Sile Hue
Dekha Ek Khwaab...

Mera Dil Hai Teri Panaahon
Aa Chhupa Loon Tujhe Maein Baahon Mein
Teri Tasveer Hai Nigaahon Mein
Door Tak Roshni Hai Raahon Mein
Kal Agar Na Roshni Ke Kaafile Hue
Pyar Ke Hazaar Deep Hain Jale Hue
Dekha Ek Khwaab...



Neela Aasman So Gaya (Male)

Neela aasmaan so gaya -2
La ra la ra la, la la la la
La ra la ra la, la la ra la ho
Neela aasmaan so gaya

O ho, ons barse raat bheege honth tharraaye
Dhadkane kuchh kehna chaahe keh nahin paaye
Hawa ka geet madhyam hai -2
Samay ki chaal bhi kam hai
Neela aasmaan so gaya -2

O, meri baahon mein sharmate lajaate aise tum aaye
Ki jaise baadlon mein chaand dheere dheere aa jaaye
Yeh tanhaayi yeh main aur tum -2
Zameen bhi ho gayi gumsum
Neela aasmaan so gaya -2
La ra la ra la, la la ra la
La ra la ra la, la la ra la ho
Neela aasmaan so gaya

Sar Se Sarke Sarke Chunariya

(sar se sarke sarke chunariya
laaj bhari ankhiyon mein
ho maiyya gaaye sajan kehna hoke magan
gaake sakhiyon mein) - 2
nainon mein neendiya
neendiya mein sapane
sapanon mein saajan
jab se basa hai
bahaaren aayi jeevan mein
nayi hulchul hai tanman mein
ek roop basa hai ankhiyon mein ho ho
sar se sarke sarke chunariya
laaj bhari ankhiyon mein

kuchh lamhe jeevan ke churale
saanson ki yeh aag bujha le
duniya se duur kahi duniya basa le
jab se mili hai tujhse nigaahen
jaadu yeh kaisa mujh pe hua
ke dil jab tanha lagta hai
mujhe kuchh aaisa lagta hai
tu jhaank raha hai ankhiyon mein
sar se sarke sarke chunariya
laaj bhari ankhiyon mein

aaj ka har ek pal sundar hain
kal kya ho kisko yeh khabar hai
lamba safar zindagi mukhtasar hai
darr lag raha hai kya jaane kya ho
dil tujhko maine jabse diya
udi hai neende aankhon se
teri aaisi hi baaton se
badnaam hui hu sakhiyon mein
sar se sarke sarke chunariya
laaj bhari ankhiyon mein
ho maiyya gaaye sajan kehna hoke magan
gaake sakhiyon mein
nainon mein neendiya
neendiya mein sapane
sapanon mein saajan
jab se basa hai
bahaaren aayi jeevan mein
nayi hulchul hai tanman mein
ek roop basa hai ankhiyon mein ho ho
sar se sarke sarke chunariya
laaj bhari ankhiyon mein

taaron se yeh maang sajadu
hothon pe ek phool khiladu
tere liye saari duniya bhula du
mehkega sara gulshan humara
dil ka sahara baahen teri hogi
khushi se hari bhari hogi
yeh duniya teri meri hogi
(sar se sarke sarke chunariya
laaj bhari ankhiyon mein
ho maiyya gaaye sajan kehna hoke magan
gaake sakhiyon mein) - 2



Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum

--MALE--
Main aur meri tanhaai aksar yeh baatein karte hain
Tum hoti to kaisa hota, tum yeh kehti, tum voh kehti
Tum is baat pe hairaan hoti, tum us baat pe kitni hansti
Tum hoti to aisa hota, tum hoti to vaisa hota
Main aur meri tanhaai aksar yeh baatein karte hain

--FEMALE--
Yeh kahan aa gaye hum
Yunhi saath saath chalte
Teri baahon mein hai jaanam
Mere jism-o-jaan pighalte
Yeh kahan aa gaye hum
Yunhi saath saath chalte

--MALE--
Yeh raat hai, yeh tumhaari zulfein khuli hui hai
Hai chaandni ya tumhaari nazrein se meri raatein dhuli hui hai
Yeh chaand hai ya tumhaara kangan
Sitaarein hai ya tumhaara aanchal
Hawa ka jhonka hai ya tumhaare badan ki khushboo
Yeh pattiyon ki hai sarsaraahat ke tumne chupke se kuch kaha hai
Yeh sochta hoon main kab se gumsum
Ke jab ki mujhko bhi yeh khabar hai
Ke tum nahin ho, kahin nahin ho
Magar yeh dil hai ke keh raha hai
Ke tum yahin ho, yahin kahin ho

--FEMALE--
O, tu badan hai main hoon chhaaya
Tu na ho to main kahan hoon
Mujhe pyaar karne waale
Tu jahan hai main vahan hoon
Hamein milna hi tha hamdam
Issi raah pe nikalte
Yeh kahan aa gaye hum
Yunhi saath saath chalte
Mm, meri saans saans maheke
Koi bheena bheena chandan
Tera pyaar chaandni hai
Mera dil hai jaise aangan
Koi aur bhi mulaayam
Meri shaam dhalte dhalte
Yeh kahan aa gaye hum
Yunhi saath saath chalte

--MALE--
Majboor yeh haalaat, idhar bhi hai udhar bhi
Tanhaai ki ek raat, idhar bhi hai udhar bhi
Kehne ko bahut kuch hai, magar kisse kahe hum
Kab tak yunhi khaamosh rahe aur sahe hum
Dil kehta hai duniya ki har ek rasm utha de
Deevaar jo hum dono mein hai, aaj gira de
Kyoon dil mein sulagte rahe, logon ko bata de
Haan humko mohabbat hai, mohabbat hai, mohabbat
Ab dil mein yehi baat, idhar bhi hai udhar bhi

--FEMALE--
Yeh kahan aa gaye hum
Yunhi saath saath chalte
Yeh kahan aa gaye hum
