You missed out a nice early (1961-62) Black Standard Herald that appears for a while in the same movie, and is made out to appear getting blown up finally. Fortunately they didn't really blow up cars (yet) in movies those days I guess.

Dev Anand, Johnny Walker and others in the song "mast ram banke zindagi ke din guzar de". The song is from Taxi Driver (1954) and the car featured is a late 1920's Chevrolet International Sedan (3178 cc/6 cyl in line/ 46 bhp) .

Re: Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars

Just found this rare video of I. S. Johar and Sonia Sahni from Johar in Bombay (1967). The song is picturised in the outdoors in prominent localities of South Bombay. The assortment of cars on the streets is quite a treat to watch. Moreover, its in colour. The song is sung by Mahendra Kapoor and its music is by Usha Khanna. The famous Belvedere numbered as MRZ 5858 appears here.

(Watch "Sar Leke Hatheli Pe | Johar In Bombay Songs | Mahendra Kapoor | Usha Khanna | Old Hindi Songs" on YouTube)

Re: Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars

Tributes to late comedian Jagdeep who passed away on 08/07/2020. Here in this video he and actors Asrani and Rajendranath are doing a hilarious scene from the film Do Hawaldar (1979). The Tata 1210 truck is a treat to watch. In the background, towards the end we can sight an Ambassador, Standard Herald, Fiat Select and a Matador.



Another comedy scene from Dil Aur Deewar (1978) a Jagdeep, Jeetendra, Moushumi Chatterjee starrer. The scene is from near Oberoi Sheraton, Bombay. Its a treat to watch the Chrysler Motors car (not sure of the brand and model name) and the taxis during the first two minutes.

Re: Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars

For a break from the usual songs posted, here is a climax scene from a film with a feast of Ambassadors. Some are bashed up and destroyed too.



Another one from Pukar (1983). Can just see how they destroyed these treasures. Each one of these imports is so much sought after these days. Please click the link to view the video.

From the Anil Kapoor Hema Malini starrer Jamai Raja. The Austin Cambridge is destroyed in this scene. Plates seem fake in some scenes.

Re: Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars

Browsing back issues of Auto India from the 1990s I've come across some interesting classifieds. Here is one for a Riley that was for sale in Baroda, claimed to have been owned by Nargis in the past. I also have this image of Nargis with a Riley, presumably the same car. Wonder where it is now. Over to our Gujarat members.

Re: Old Bollywood & Indian Films : The Best Archives for Old Cars

From "Nastik" (1983). Please check from 2.51 mins and particularly from 3.51 mins for a view of the Bombay traffic from that era.

A beautiful picture of Madhubala behind the wheel of what is probably a Morris Minor convertible.

I think the AVM group enters a 49 Buick in Madras events even now, wonder if its the same car.
