For Ramesh Sippy it was victimization in Sholay when a helpless Hema Malini danced to Jab tak hai jaan o jaane jaan main nachungi on glass pieces strewn on the rocky floor. It is said Sippy personally demonstrated the pose and the expression to his heroine, where she looks up at the sun (also used on the poster of the film).
For Govind Nihalani in Vijeta the plane crash and the young pilot stranded in an alien land is an emotional moment because all Kunal Kapoor can think of is his mother/ Rekha.
Amol Palekar’s Thodasa Rumani Ho Jaye was the story of a village fighting drought and also the story of a lonely girl seeking love. One day, a Rainmaker/Barishkar played by Nana Patekar arrives in the village and aids the villagers in locating water and inadvertently, aids the lonely heroine find love.
