Wild Bollywood
I've had this track on a Bollywood film theme CD for years but never thought of looking for a video of it on YouTube. Thanks to an Englishman trapped in Sweden for making that connection for me. This track and its video are so great my eyes are bleeding.
The film is KISMAT from 1968 and it's available on an English subtitled DVD from India. I've just bought a copy from a seller there via eBay (the DVD won't ruin anybody's budget, it was VERY cheap!). If you look up the film make sure you find the right one; Apparently the title was popular in India and I've come across at least two other films by the same title.
In case you're interested the CD is called "The Kings and Queens of Bollywood - Classic Sixties Indian Film Themes".

"I want to crawl into this video and live in it"
The headline is someone's comment on YouTube and I thought it fitted perfect as a headline here. This video is just pure bliss. In fact it's heaven! I could watch this all day long and still want to watch it again. The clip is from the Bollywood movie GUMNAAM from 1965 but most people will probably recognise it from the beginning of the American movie GHOSTWORLD (based on the ultra-ultra cool comic book of the same title). I could have used the restored version from GHOSTWORLD but I thought it was more fun to use the version from the original movie. GUMNAAM is available on several English subtitled DVDs.
