Contrary to popular belief that his best duets were with Asha (though they had their own teenybopper charm), I feel Kishore sung some stunning songs with Lata. Here's one for instance....
The lead pair is no wa wa woom though. Rakesh Roshan who could never reach the A league of actors and Rekha looks particularly unpolished yet and unsure(can't believe she is actually wearing a gold set- aiyyo amma!!!-with a floral chiffon in broad day light) The movie was one of those war movies that came in a spurt after India's bloody wars with Pakistan and China, romanticising trouble at the borders as nationalism and patriotism. Maybe those wars had been necessary. But today in retrospect one thinks how wars always halt progress and take things back by almost a decade. So I stand with my view that wars are avoidable. Haha As they say make love, not war...
