It’s difficult to imagine Hindi film comedy without Bollywood’s comic genius, Mehmood. A movie starring Mehmood came with an assurance of fun, frolic, drama, dance and great music. His journey in Bollywood began as a child actor in Ashok Kumar’s ‘Kismet’ (1943). But it was Guru Dutt who spotted the gem in this young lad and gave him his first break. Such was the charm and strature of Mehmood that even Amitabh Bachchan once called Mehmood, his godfather in his blog. During his filmy career, the actor has worked in more than 300 Hindi flicks. On the talented actor’s birthday, have a look at some of his powerful performances that are sure to tickle your funny bones:
It is one of the must-watch of Mehmood which will make you drive you ROFL. He played role of south Indian classical musician teacher which is hilariously humorous.
He not only acted but also directed the film. Bhoot Bangla also featured Tanuja and Nazir Hussain. The film falls in the comedy-horror film genre.
Mehmood not only played the lead, but also directed the film. This film shared a social message of eradication of polio, which was a prevailing issue in the society during the 70’s. But he had his own special way of sending the message across with his amazing comic timing.
Along with Mehmood, the film also featured Amitabh Bachchan, Aruna Irani and Shatrughan Sinha in pivotal roles. Mehmood as conductor made the journey from Bombay to Goa, one of the most hilarious journey. The film was directed by S. Ramanathan.
Mehmood’s portrayal of a simple-minded waiter, Sunder is hilarious. He falls in love with the daughter of his employee. His innocence along with the comic timing and then later the emotions that he shows charms the audience.
