Shammi Kapoor - Isharon isharon me..

I have always loved this song Isharon isharon me from Kashmir Ki Kali for its romantic lyrics and lovely music.  When I chanced to see this film years ago on doordarshan, I thought I would die of happiness.  The song shot among the misty outdoors of beautiful Kashmir with a handsome Shammi and lovely Sharmila, exceeded my expectations.  What a handsome couple they make, Shammi and Sharmila.



Shammi Kapoor died this morning, 14th August, 2011 at 5.30 am.  RIP Shammi, you will live forever in our hearts, cavorting in Shimla, Srinagar and Paris.  Handsome and desirable forever.

  6. I don't think its possible to shoot pictures now in Kashmir.
    Shammi was an exceptional one in the Kapoor family.
    In his early stages he had a moustache and his pictures never took off.
    Then he did a complete face over and what a start it was for him.
    I don't think I have missed any of his movies.
