Hema Malini Funny Fight Scene From Seeta aur Geeta सीता और गीता,Bollywood Comedy-drama Movie
Seeta aur Geeta (“Seeta and Geeta”) is a 1972 Indian Bollywood comedy-drama film, written by Salim-Javed (Salim Khan and Javed Akhtar) and directed by Ramesh Sippy. It stars Hema Malini, Dharmendra and Sanjeev Kumar in leading roles, and features music composed by R.D. Burman.

The story is about identical twins (played by Hema Malini) who are separated at birth and grow up with different temperaments. The twins then swap places (like The Prince and the Pauper). The two sisters’ partners in the movie are played by Dharmendra and Sanjeev Kumar. Manorama plays the evil aunt who changes her tune after her arm is twisted (literally). Furthermore, Hema Malini was noted for the novelty of her role as Geeta where she is rambunctious and sometimes violent.

The main theme of this movie was copied from the superhit Tamil movie Enga Veettu Pillai starring Superstar M. G. Ramachandran. As hinted in the Wikipedia page, it is said that the producer of this movie B. Nagi Reddy was furious with Salim-Javed for copying his story and hence he went on to quickly move on to making remakes in other languages include the Telugu film Ganga Manga (1973) and the Tamil film Vani Rani (1974), both starring Vanisri in the dual roles.

This Tamil film was remade as Ram Aur Shyam starring Dilip Kumar in the leading dual role, which inspired Salim-Javed to write Seeta Aur Geeta, but they subverted the formula by having the heroine eventually become the “hero” while the male lead is in a mostly supporting role. Another earlier film with a similar theme was Muqabala (1942) starring Fearless Nadia. Subsequent Hindi remakes of the story have been made, including Jaise Ko Taisa starring Jeetendra, ChaalBaaz starring Sridevi, Kishen Kanhaiya starring Anil Kapoor, Judwaa starring Salman Khan Kuch Khatti Kuch Meethi starring Kajol, in the dual roles.

Hema Malini won her only competitive Filmfare Best Actress Award of her career. P. Vaikunth won the Filmfare Best Cinematographer Award. In 1976, the film was shown in the Soviet Union where it was a success.
