Deepti Navalji and Farooq Sheikhji were outstanding in the film Kisi Se Na Kehna
Actors Farooq Sheikh and Deepti Naval were a brilliant intellectual pair who stormed Bollywood films in the 1980s. They were cast in different experimental characters after the pair of Naseeruddin Smita Patil and Om Puri Shabana Azmi.
Kisi Se Na Kehna was a light-hearted comedy film made by Hrishikesh Mukherjee in 1983. The film was produced by Ashok Raut or Jayant Pathare. The music was composed by Bappi Lahiri.
In the film Farooq Sheikh became the general manager of the firm run by SN Banerjee. He fell in love with Deepti Naval who was the niece of SN Banerjee. Utpal Dutta, the father of Farooq Sheikh wanted to get him married to girl who knew Indian traditions and did not know the language.
Utpal Dutta himself went to see a number of girls and found that the ones who were modern learned poor culture and were disrespectful towards elders. He asked Farooq Sheikh to marry only that girl who knew not a single letter of English.
Sayeed Jaffery helped Farooq Sheikh and Deepti Naval to get married. He asked Deepti Naval and SN Banerjee to pretend that they were from the village and never heard any English word in life. Deepti Naval faced huge trouble as she was a learned doctor, but she managed the false relationship.
Deven Verma, her cousin brother was the relief character in the film who was seen with different girlfriends at different times. At the end of the film when Utpal Dutta faced a heart attack, Deepti Naval had to give an injection to save him and told the truth. At the beginning Utpal Dutta told her to leave his house but after hearing the version from Sayeed Jaffery reconciled the situation.
Hrishikesh Mukherjee gave a great message in the film. He showed the world that development is not based on roughness created by advanced education but the humbleness earned by traditional knowledge. Farooq Sheikh and Deepti Naval after creating havoc with brilliant performances in the films Saath Saath, Katha, Chasme Badoor, continued the dream run in the film Kisi Se Na Kehna.
Utpal Dutta had a class of his own when it came to acting. Right from negative roles in the films Barsaat Ki Ek Raat to comedy roles in Golmaal and social roles in Kisi Se Na Kehna, he became the pride of the industry in character roles. Sayeed Jaffery was a great actor and showed his class in films like Shatranj Ki Khiladi, Masoom and many other films. The music of Bappi Lahiri was impressive with Asha Bhosle’s song “kisi se na kehna” which was very soft and melodious. The film should be restored and preserved.

Sai Paranjpye was sublime in Chasme Badoor.

Sai Paranjpye was sublime in Chasme Badoor.
Director Sai Paranjpye was sublime in the film Chasme Baddoor. Sai Paranjpye carried forward the neo-film revolution that was started by Shyam Benegal, Govind Nihalini and others. The film was released in 1981. Farooq Sheikh, Ravi Vaswani and Rakesh Bedi were three friends of Delhi University.
Deepti Naval came in their life. Farooq Sheikh completed MA in Economics and was preparing for PhD. Both Ravi Vaswani and Rakesh Bedi went to Deepti Naval’s house but failed to impress her. Deepti Naval came to Farooq Sheikh’s house to advertise Champo Washing Powder.
Deepti Naval’s father gave employment to Farooq Sheikh in his office. Both of them almost got engaged, when Ravi Vaswani and Rakesh Bedi betrayed Farooq Sheikh and tried to end the romantic relationship. The music in the film was impressive. Yesu Das, Haimanti Shukhla and others sang notable songs in the film.
At the end of the film a artificial kidnapping scene was hatched up and the marriage actually took place. All the actors including Saeed Jaffery and Lila Mishra were excellent. Farooq Sheikh and Deepti Naval formed a very impressive pair of actor and actress who featured in other landmark films like Katha, Kisi Se Na Kahe Na, etc.
In the early 80s, the viewers of bollywood films had the taste and patience to appreciate parallel films and refined commercial films having leading performances from the intellectual actors and actresses like Om Puri, Naseeruddin Shah, Smita Patil, Shabana Azmi, Farooq Sheikh, Deepti Naval and others. The Chasme Baddoor should be restored.

Deepti Naval – the realistic actress of 80s.
Deepti Naval – the realistic actress of 80s.

Deepti Naval had followed the same path which was laid down by Shabana Azmi, Smita Patil, in the 70s in realistic films. She had acted in a number of films which showed the struggle of middle-class Indians in the late 70s and early 80s.
In Saath-Saath, opposite Farooq Sheikh, she played the role of a student who had an affair with Farooq and when the time came for building their house they saw the crude reality of economic problems. Jagjit Singh composed brilliant music in the film, and the songs in the film like “yeh tera ghar yeh mera ghar”, “tumko dekha to yeh khayal aya”, etc., became landmark hits.

Deepti Naval also acted very well in the film Katha, where Naseer and Farooq played tow different characters. Both of them stayed in the same flat-complex where Deepti Naval stayed, but both were different in their ideologies. Naseer was a simple person, who lived a middle-class life and was honest, generous and truthful. Farooq came and stayed in Naseer’s house and gave a feeling to everyone that he was working in a big company and had a bright future. He took the recourse the falsehood and Deepti Naval even agreed to marry him based on the false impression. The film became successful in the early 80s.
Besides Deepti Naval also acted in comedy films like Kisise Na Kehna, where Farooq Sheikh, the son of Utpal Dutt, wanted to marry her, but due to his father’s desire had to show a different identity of Deepti Naval, telling his father she was a village girl, knowing traditional things. She was a doctor and had to portray herself as simple girl as Utpal Dutt hated ultramodern aggressive girls. Saeed Jaffery had done very well in the film and helped Farooq and Deepti Naval to hide their identity before Utpal Dutt.

Deepti Naval also did well in Mirch Masala, directed by Ketan Mehta. Although Smita Patil played the main role, the film was based on oppression of women in the rural areas of India and Deepti Naval was the wife of the mukhia played by Suresh Oberoi and had to show her frustration in respect of the unfair things that were practiced in the village.
Although Deepti Naval also acted in commercial films like Yalgaar, with Firoz Khan, she is remembered for the realistic performance she had provided in the parallel films and refined commercial films.
