The National award-winning veteran actor Manoj Kumar got nostalgic on Wednesday while remembering his cult classic Shor, which completed 49 years in the Indian cinema.



The actor Manoj Kumar took to his Twitter handle and shared a monochrome still from the 1972 iconic movie co-starring legendary actors Jaya Bachchan and Nanda.



Sharing the picture that stars Manoj as Shankar with Jaya as Rani and Prem Nath as Khan Badshah – Rani’s father, he wrote “49 saal bemisaal #OnThisDay 49 Year’s Ago “#SHOR”.”

The film Shor gave two of the most iconic songs to Indian cinema – Ek Pyar Ka Nagma Hai crooned by Lata Mangeshkar and Paani Re Paani by Mukesh and Lata.



The 1972 romantic drama revolves around the story of Shankar (Manoj) who strives to hear the voice of his son, who is speech impaired, and raises money to get him operated on. However, right after his son’s operation, Shankar loses his hearing in a factory accident.



The movie was written, produced, and directed by Manoj Kumar, who also played the lead role in the film. The film was remade in Tamil as Osai. The film Shor, which was released on September 15, 1972, was critically notable and received a Filmfare accolade for best editing.

Legendary music composer Laxmikant-Pyarelal:
Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma and Laxmikant Shantaram Kudalkar — gave music to the film, which certainly proved to be an asset for it.
The actors Kamini Kaushal, Manorma, Madan Puri, and Asrani also played key roles in the movie.
