Raj Kapoor’s name has forever been associated with his own banner. But apart from acting and directing films under the fabled RK banner, he was also a versatile actor who gave hits with other filmmakers as well. On his birth anniversary, we bring out a list of his top films with other banners.
Phir Subha Hogi (1958)
Director: Rameh Saigal
Based on Fyodor Dostoevsky's novel Crime and Punishment, this socially relevant drama had Raj Kapoor playing a good-natured man who commits murder due to circumstances and has a huge crisis of conscience about it. The actor effectively captured the inner dilemma of the central character. The songs of the film, composed by Khayyam and written by Sahir Ludhianvi, were in keeping with the social theme of the film. Chin-o-Arab hamara from the film became quite controversial at the time.
