Storyline

The year is 1951, India is a free country, and Hariram lives a poor lifestyle along with his wife, Bela, and a young son, Rattan. He is in debt, but continues to borrow money so that he could provide a better life for his family. On the occasion of Diwali, he borrows some more money, returns home laden with gifts, fire-crackers, and sweetmeats, and together they celebrate. That night a snake enters their hut and bites Bela, killing her, leaving both father and son devastated, so much so that Hariram takes to alcohol, loses his job, and is unable to re-pay his loan. His moneylender assaults Rattan, and an enraged Hariram threatens to kill him. That night the moneylender is killed, and the Police arrest Hariram, he is tried in court, found guilty, and sentenced to be hanged. With the help of a pickpocket named Ghasita, Rattan finds out that his father is innocent, and both set out to travel to Delhi to meet the Indian Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru so that Hariram can be freed. ...

User Reviews

Not a particularly great film, but an appreciable effort nonetheless
24 March 2011 | by (Earth) – See all my reviews

After watching such movies as Boot Polish and Jagte Raho, produced by the great Raj Kapoor, I could not miss Ab Dilli Dur Nahin. The premise was very interesting, and the film is quite good, but not as good as expected. The film imparts the journey of Ratan, a little kid who goes on foot to Delhi (Dilli) to save his father from death. His mother died of a snake bite and soon afterwards his father was charged with murder and convicted to death penalty for no fault of his own. After the father is sent to Delhi to await his death sentence, the kid meets a petty thief who confirms that at the time of the murder he saw his father sleeping near his wife's grave. That's when his journey to meet the Indian prime minister of the time, Jawaharlal Nehru and prove his father's innocence begins. And he has many obstacles to overcome.

Generally a watchable movie telling the story of hope and struggle, Ab Dilli Dur Nahin was a rather experimental film at the time, and the one who fearlessly invested his money in this project was none other than the great Raj Kapoor. This is actually one of the least famous films he produced. The film's title itself, which is more of a slogan, made me go and watch it. Though it is definitely worth the watch, it's not flawless. I liked the beginning a lot, and I found the portrayal of the family and the couple very convincing and moving. This portion of the film shows how people, despite financial difficulties and hardships, were happy with what they had. Unfortunately the death of the female heroine happens too soon and it's a sad view, and the following proceedings only add to the tragedy.

The film's songs are lovely, but they are so many that at times they just drag the narrative. The director does try to portray the story realistically, but at times the film gets a bit melodramatic and the main conflicts as well as the villains make it look more of a fairy tale. As far as acting is concerned, the film's main protagonist is the kid Master Romi, and he does reasonably well but never well enough. The supporting child actors do much better, for what it's worth. Motilal does very well in his role, while Soluchana Latkar is excellent in her brief appearance. Anwar Hussain makes for an ordinary villain. The film's ending is very sugarcoated and is easy to predict. I thought the movie would have worked better as a children's movie, but it was far too serious. Ab Dilli Dur Nahin may not be a great film, but it has a good concept and it is an altogether appreciable effort.

      An Innocent’s quest A poster of the film.
    STARRING Motilal, Sulochana, Master Romi, Anwar Hussain, Yaqub
    “Ab Dilli Door Nahin” — the phrase that became the slogan for reaching the seat of power in Delhi, the phrase that is used as a symbol of hope — actually gained more prominence after Raj Kapoor’s R.K Films produced and Amar Kumar directed the film with this title in 1957. As the film starring Motilal, Sulochana, Ratan Kumar, Mohan Choti and others begins in the manner of the usual happy family saga, it seems as if the title of the film has little relevance to the story, but the second half more than justifies it.
    In brief, it is about a financially feeble mill worker father Hariram (Motilal), who keeps his family — loving wife Bela (Sulochana) and son Rattan (Master Romi) — happy even as the cost of a loan he took from the village’s greedy moneylender increases. His good days end when his wife dies of a snake bite and he takes to drinking, loses his job and is charged with murder. But the actual killer Mukunda Lal (Anwar Hussain) roams scot-free till a pickpocket Ghaseeta (Yaqub) meets Ratan by chance and tells him that he saw his drunk father sleeping near his wife’s grave at the time of the murder. Now the 10-year-old must prove the innocence of his father who is facing a death sentence. And it is only Independent India’s first Prime Minister Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru who can commute the sentence. Most of the film is Ratan’s journey to Delhi on foot, and his struggle to meet the PM, and predictably, his triumph.
    The blend
    The film, one of its kind from the RK banner, was experimental in nature symbolising new India’s hopes and aspirations and a belief that injustice was a thing of the past. And it blended beautifully with family values that were the hallmark of the society then. Akhtar Mirza’s story and dialogues by Muhafiz Hyder and Rajinder Singh Bedi gave ample space to overriding emotions. Sample these — a loving husband takes a loan of Rs.30 at an interest of 12 per cent per month to gift his wife a sari and his son a brightly embellished cap on Diwali. A drunk father rushes to attend to his lonely son nudging his drinking companions. Or, a motherless child burns his hand while making rotis. To bring patriotic fervour to a family scene, the director utilises the festival of lights. And hence, diyas are placed so as to make India’s map on the courtyard, around which children from Hariram’s neighbourhood burst firecrackers and Bela sings “Ye chaman hamara apna hai”.
    It is delightful to see Motilal getting into the skin of a villager, speaking the local dialect to perfection. India Gate of those days was full of gigantic trees lining both sides of the road, and the river Yamuna (at ITO) was cleaner. It is here that one bursts into laughter as Ratan asks a bald man, ‘where is Darya Ganj?’ Pointing at the Yamuna and his hairless head, he quips, ‘That is darya, and this is ‘Ganj’!’
    An actual shot of Nehru leaving Teen Murti Bhawan is flashed for a few seconds to bring credibility to the story of reaching the PM. One is also amazed at the use of animation in the song “Chun Chun Karti Aayi Chidiya”. Was our technology that advanced at that time or did RK source it? The film didn’t do well at the box office. But its lyrics by Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri and music by Dutta Ram became popular. The two songs besides “Masti Bhara Hai Saman” are still fresh in our minds. The film undoubtedly celebrates the spirit of courage and togetherness.
    Flashback
    “I was very small when the film was released. Keeping the newly independent India’s new Prime Minister in mind, Raj Kapoor ji wrote the script and persuaded Nehru ji to work in the film, especially in the last shot where the child finally meets the PM. Raj ji told Nehru that the film would put his government on a high pedestal and bring the desired credibility, and Nehru ji had agreed to work in it. But at the last moment he declined to work for reasons best known to him. So, Raj ji had to use stock shots of Nehru. As the whole film was based on the child’s meeting with the PM which didn’t happen, the film fell flat. Obviously no one could empathise with it.
