Sometimes some Bollywood movies do not perform well initially upon their release. However after some word of mouth the movie picks up and earns big at the box office. A similar thing happened with this film but the only difference was that the film was not released on the big screen for two years. And when the movie finally made it to theaters it earned money like anything and became a blockbuster hit. This happened about 40 years ago. However the journey from post-production to theater halls was extremely tough.
The movie featured some of the big names from the Bollywood industry. Both the actor and actress were renowned and loved by people. A big factor in casting also played an essential role in the films success. If you are wondering which film we are talking about then the film in discussion is Pyar Jhukta Nahin.
Featuring Padmini Kolhapure and Mithun Chakraborty in the lead roles Pyar Jhukta Nahin was a family drama that was released in 1985. Apart from them Danny Bindu Desai Master Vicky Madhu Malini Vikas Anand and many other stars worked in key roles. This marked Mithun and Padminis first collaboration.
Interestingly Mithun always played an action hero back then but he took the opportunity of playing a romantic role. This became one of the reasons why the distributors rejected the film.
According to IMDb reports the film Pyar Jhukta Nahin was made in the year 1983 but it did not find a buyer for 2 years because Mithun Chakraborty played a different role in it whereas he was always seen in action and dance films.
Following this producer KC Bokadia took a big call and released the film in 1985. As soon as the film made it to the big screens it became a huge hit and fans loved this new avatar of Mithun proving everyone wrong.
With the success of Pyar Jhukta Nahin KC Bokadia became a top producer overnight and Vijay Sadana a top director. The chemistry of Mithun Chakraborty and Padmini Kolhapure was a hit on the silver screen. The music of Laxmikant-Pyarelal won the hearts of the people. Made for Rs 50 lakhs the film earned Rs. 4.5 crore.
Did you know that Mithun was not the first choice for Pyar Jhukta Nahin? It was Rishi Kapoor who got the film initially. However he turned down the film and it was given to Mithun. And the rest is history.
