Hmm I read that Dev approached him. Either way, he wrote some of his best lyrics for Guide.

I too remember reading that version. Shailendra approaching Devsaab in a flight was recounted by the latter himself.

Tell me the awards were for sale without telling me.

What is so great about Sangam? See this is how the lobbying works. I mean Sangam is just another run of the mill love triangle but because of all these awards it suddenly got that masterpiece vibe for the future generations. Of course Guide just didn’t need any awards but there were so many gems which fell through crevices because of these malpractices.

Never mind. This is what I found.and say whaaaa🤬 Rajkapoor best director for Sangham?

Sangam! Uff! Don't get me started on that movie!

Wait Guide did win for Best Actor and Best Actress and Best direction. That was 1967 I think

Idk. I watched it once and I'd prefer forgetting the experience altogether.

Raj Kapoor's character makes me wanna puke.

Kyun naache sapera?

Shailendra summed up Raju's descent in 3 words. This stanza is strangely missing everywhere.

GUIDE won 7 awards in total. In all fairness it should have been 11.
