Shammi Kapoor on music: ‘It gave me a better kick than booze’
Shammi Kapoor’s flair for music went back to his younger days. His mother had been into classical music and she would practise regularly with a professional music teacher, Pandit Jagannath Prasad, a well-known exponent of Hindustani classical music, who used to train the likes of the legendary K.L. Saigal and Mukesh. When she could not attend his training sessions at some point due to pressure of household work, she made her elder son Raj Kapoor learn in her place.

It&#;s time for more Shammi, in brilliant Eastman Color! Janwar is one of my favorite Shammi films (okay, I know I always say that), because it&#;s chock full of crazy outfits and disguises, great repartee between Shammi and his sidekick Rajendranath, and the presence of Prithviraj Kapoor and Rehman as well. It also has a great fast-paced story full of fun, and the songs by Shankar and Jaikishan are brilliant.
Srivastava (Prithviraj Kapoor) is a wealthy man with two sons. The eldest, Mahendra (Rehman) works with his father while the younger Sunder (Shammi Kapoor) is studying in college. Srivastava is very hard on Mahendra, who is quiet although hard-working, even shouting at him in front of colleagues.
This naturally makes Mahendra somewhat reticent and timid with his father. In contrast to his treatment of Mahendra, Srivistava dotes on Sunder and praises him to the skies. Of course (being Shammi) Sunder is a happy-go-lucky kind of fellow; he doesn&#;t work hard at all excep
