Roop Shaukeenan Da: Directed by Kanwal Biala. With Daljeet Kaur Khangura, Gurcharan Pohli, Rajni Bala, Lehmber Pahal.
SHAUKEENAN DA MOVIE STORY
The story behind how this film was conceived is quite unique. The NRIs first wanted to enter the film business. Younger brother Lahimbar wanted to be an actor and work with Diljit Kaur as a hero.
So he came in contact with Kanwal Biala (film director). The story is written by lyricist Dev Karnail Lallanwale. Later, it was revealed that Lehbar was too young and too experienced to play the lead role. So Satish Kaul was signed along with Daljit Kaur, while Gujarati actress Rajni Bala was linked with Lahimbari.
Prior to ‘Roop Shaukeenan Da’, Daljit Kaur was doing another film (Sohni Mahiwal) of director Kanwal Biala (also producer of that film) which was in making for quite a long time. When he approached her for ‘Roop Shaukeenan Da’, She shared her doubts with the NRI producer brothers.
But to her surprise, the film was wrapped in two schedules. While the long stuck ‘Sohni Mahiwal’ saw progression on the work front. As usual, the wrong practices by fooling producers have always been there in Punjabi Film Industry. The director was said to be spending funds of ‘Roop Shaukeenan Da’ on his own delayed production ‘Sohni Mahiwal’ and was shooting for both the side of the film by side (jointly directed by Shashi Pal).
Movie Music
As a theme, the film had a regular romance style with a very bold twist, which had never been tried before in any film (considering the age of the characters). Here’s how the story goes – a middle-aged man (the protagonist’s father) tried to rape a middle-aged woman who was the mother of an older daughter (the second protagonist).
The music of the film was popular at the time, with some songs composed by Charanjit Ahuja, and was considered one of the richest, film music albums of its time. If we talk about the performance of the film, people knew that a film called ‘Roop Shaukeenan Da’ is being released. The music was a huge hit which helped in the promotion and although the film did not do well, it did.
One might ask, but what happened to the producer duo, especially the actor Lahimbar initiative?
Well, there is a funny story behind the fortunes of the first brothers in the industry. We all know that Punjabi viewers can be forgiving. Seeing Lehmer’s acting, some in the audience hurled insults at him. It so happened that Lehbar sat in the audience and realized that acting was not his cup of tea. Then, as they say, the rest is history.
Finally, ‘Roop Shaukeenan Da’ is one of those Punjabi films which tastes like the weather of its time. While it was one of the most popular films of the VHS era, it later disappeared as it was never released on VCD or DVD nor was it shown on Punjabi TV channels. Being a song by Kuldeep Manak, the title song got a new lease of life in the age of the internet, just like the movie when a VHS print was uploaded on YouTube.
