#4 Naram Garam (1981)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gomQrZx5Nzk
Naram Garam, a fantastic film made in 1981, is my favourite film of all time. It beautifully portrays the silent yet deep-rooted love between the leads, Kusum ( Swaroop Sampat) and Ram Prasad (Amol Palekar).
Woven with lots of
comic moments, it is a love story of Ram Prasad and Kusum. The latter, along with her father (A. K. Hangal), comes to the place where Ram stays as they become homeless. Ram is already facing a financial crisis, but he decides to help them for the sake of humanity. The other reason is that Ram has feelings for Kusum, and she, too, has a soft spot for him.
When Ram brings them to a vacant bungalow near his home, many suitors are ready to marry Kusum, as she is beautiful. Among them are the manager (Suresh Chatwal) as well as brother Kaali Shankar ( Shatrughan Sinha) of Ram’s employer.
Ram’s employer, Bhavani Shankar ( Utpal Dutt), is a highly superstitious businessman. Ram accommodates the father-daughter duo in Bhavani Shankar’s vacant bungalow.
On knowing the truth,
Bhavani gets furious first. But Kusum’s singing skills and prediction that his second wife’s name will start with the letter ‘K’ draw him towards Kusum. He tells Ram, in fact, to fix his marriage with Kusum, and he becomes Kusum’s next suitor.
Ram and Kusum’s trials start with this announcement from Bhavani Shankar. But Ram turns the tables around by inviting Bhavani’s daughter Summi (Kiran Vairale) and mother-in-law (Dina Pathak) right on the wedding day, and the marriage is called off.
The twist is that to save Kusum from societal taunts, as her wedding has suddenly stopped, Bhavani requests Ram marry Kusum. Ram gets what he wants, and the film ends on a happy note.
Highlight
This movie’s highlight is the pure, beautiful chemistry shared by Amol Palekar and Swaroop Sampat. The silent yet deep-rooted love they share is classically woven into a comedy movie. The trust she has in him that he will bring her out of any problem is beautifully shown. In one of the scenes, he is about to leave for an important work. He tells her to marry Bhavani, assuring her that he will solve this matter and that she doesn’t have to marry Bhavani in real life.
Ram says, “Have faith in God”.
Kusum replies, “I have faith only in you now”. And till Ram comes back, Kusum waits for him.
These words stole my heart then; to this day, I wonder how blindly Kusum trusts Ram.
