Rajput began in 1975 as a dream project with all the makings of a blockbuster hit. It had Goldie as the director,LP as music directors; and Dharmendra, Hema Malini, Rajesh Khanna, Vinod Khanna as the lead actors. Following her phenomenal success in Laila Majnu,the gorgeous Ranjeeta was also roped in. As if that was not enough, they also signed Tina Munim some time in the middle of the project. Unfortunately, the movie took seven years to see the light of the day, and it turned out to be only an average box office earner. There is no satisfactory explanation available as to why it took so long. Maybe there were problems with the dates of the overworked stars. To a viewer, the main problem appears to be the the weak story-line which ,it seems, was revised again and again, and it became weaker with each revision. The characters played by Dharmendra and Hema Malini are deeply in love, and they get physically intimate, but their parents-Om Shivpuri and Rehman- are sworn enemies. The result is that Hema gets married to the character played by Rajesh Khanna, and Dharmendra goes to jail as he kills the dacoit who attacks Hema Malini's Doli. Hema gives birth to Dharmendra's son who is raised by Rajesh Khanna as his own son, even though he knows the truth. Bhanu (Vinod Khanna) is in love with Kamali( Ranjeeta) who gets raped by Ranjeet who plays a tyrant ex ruler. Ranjeet is a widower who has a daughter from his first marriage-played by Tina Munim. Vinod Khanna forces Ranjeet to marry Ranjeeta, and kidnaps the daughter (Tina Munim) to settle the scores. Predictably, the kidnapped daughter falls in love with the kidnapper. In spite of the multi star billing, the bizarre twists to the story lead to the evident asymmetry in the relationships as Hema is the heroine for both Dharmendra and Rajesh Khanna; and Vinod Khanna is the hero for both Ranjeeta and Tina Munim. I give full marks to Goldie as he managed to make a watchable movie even though the project dragged for seven years for whatever reasons. Among the actors, Rajesh Khanna has performed the best. Physically, he looks less of a Rajput if you compare him with Dharmendra,Vinod Khanna, and Ranjeet. But his role was meatier, and he did full justice to it as the devoted lover, committed husband, caring and loving foster father, and a brave and intelligent Police Officer. Dharmendra didn't have much scope in the story. Vinod Khanna didn't have too much scope either, but he was the director's darling. Goldie sure gave special importance to his Guru Bhai ( Ref Acharya Rajneesh) ,Vinod Khanna, who gets significant footage particularly during the climax. It should be mentioned that while Goldie and Mahesh Bhatt had deserted Rajneesh, Vinod Khanna was still with the Godman and even went with him to America.He could shoot for the film only when he visited India. The girls were totally ignored except for some scintillating scenes of Hema Malini. Ranjeet was too young to play Tina's father and certainly inadequate to be the main villain. I recall when I first saw this movie, my fellow viewers wondered why Prem Nath was not there in the movie. Certainly a watchable film. The names of the actors should be taken to mean the characters played by them in the film.

Nancy is heartbroken after a guy, Peter, whom she loved, betrayed her and dumped her.. Since then she has isolated herself. Henry (Uday Chandra) lives on the same street as Nancy and secretly loves her. ROsie dislikes Henry.. Rosie's brother and neighbor, Tom (David) and Nancy take the 9:10 AM local train daily. Tony Braganza (Amol Palekar) is a young eligible bachelor who is also travelling by 9:10 AM Western Railway local train from Bandra to Churchgate (he is late to office by 30 mins due to this). Tony is an artist and makes sketches of strangers on the train. One day Nancy notices Tony staring at her and complains to TOm. Tony passes a note in the train to Tom and introduces himself to TOm. Tom likes Tony and they both share info about each other via notes. Tom tells Tony that Nancy is his niece and is unmarried. Tony lives with his parents Mr. Braganza (Arvind Deshpande) & Mrs. Braganza (Piloo J. Wadia).. Tony gets permission to be 30 mins late daily in exchange for staying 2 hrs late in the evening. Tony is happy as he now take the 9:10 AM train daily and see Nancy and Tom. One day Tom asks Tony to get down at Marine line station. They go into a cafe where Tom introduces Tony and Nancy.. Tom manipulates the situation and gets Nancy to invite Tony for dinner that night, on the pretext of explaining his work (he specializes in cartoons) Tom also asks Nancy to introduce Tony to Rosie, which she does. Rosie is initially apprehensive about him as he only drawing a mere Rs.300/- compared to Nancy's Rs.700/-, but soon changes her mind when she finds out that after his probationary period he will draw a monthly pay of Rs.1000/-. Rosie goes out of her way to make Tony feel comfortable in her house. Rosie is not thrilled to see that Tony is a cartoonist and makes caricatures using animal figures. But Tom intervenes and controls the situation. Nancy and Tony are permitted to meet on a regular basis and both eventually fall in love. Nancy admits that she has a past where she was betrayed by a boy, Peter (when he cheated on Nancy with another girl Julie), whom she loved, she still likes Tony. On one of the visits Rosie invites Nancy's friend Hazel to meet Tony. Hazel wears a provocative dress and Tom rebukes Rosie for inviting her in the first place. Henry also keeps dropping by, but he is super nervous and Rosie always discourages him and kicks him out of the house with one pretext or another. Meanwhile Hazel introduces herself to Tony when he comes to meet Nancy.. Hazel throws herself on Tony and he likes the attention, which irritates Rosie and Nancy. Again TOm has to intervene to cool tempers and get Tony and Nancy to go out on a movie.. It helps that Hazel is now engaged to another guy.. Rosie is worries that Tony has been dating Nancy for 3.5 months now. Rosie and Philomena Aunty (Leela Mishra) ramp up the pressure on Nancy to find out Tony's intentions about marriage. Tony is hesitant in taking the next step with Nancy, and this is what costs him Nancy's love. Philomena Aunty feels that he will not come through with the marriage. she asks Rosie to meet Tony's parents and start wedding talks. Rosie runs into Mrs Branganza and Tony at a movie hall, when she is seated right next to them. Mrs Branganza is not happy to learn that Tony has been dating Nancy for 4 months now and that he likes her. She leaves in a huff.. Nancy blames Rosie for talking needlessly too much.. Nancy feels she and Rosie have been insulted and decides not to meet Tony again. Meanwhile Mrs Braganza is pissed at Tony for almost finalizing his own wedding without her knowledge. Tony is defensive and says there is no talk of marriage. Nancy and Tony have a fight and stop meeting each other on the train as well. Rosie starts looking elsewhere for a son-in-law. Nancy does not like this, but she at first accepts whatever her mom wants. When Tom comes to know about this, he speaks to Tony's dad. Henry professes his love for Nancy, but she lets him down very gently. Tony's dad tells Tony that if he is still reluctant to make any commitments (he is not willing to commit to a marriage just yet, although he loves Nancy), he should tell Nancy about it. So Nancy and Tony meet each other and Nancy tells him that she will never meet him again. It is then that Tony feels that he actually loves Nancy and cannot live without her. Then Nancy also confesses her love for him and they marry.
