 Bollywood - Special Feature - The Magic of Shammi Kapoor
Shammi, thereafter, never looked back, until the turn of the 1970s, when his growing girth, in tune with his family’s genetic order, could not breathe the usual mercurial flow, or ‘biff-bang’ element on the silver screen - his hallmark, the apogee of his amazing versatility.
Shammi gave up wisely when he knew he had lost his innate capacity, his ardent and innovative pattern of conceptualisation and emotive rapture.
When Shammi won the Filmfare Lifetime Achievement Award, a few years ago, it was a tribute not only to his style, and achievement, but a big way of saying thanks to his immense contribution to Indian cinema.

Shammi Kapoor revolutionised the concept of romance in Hindi films and he expanded the scope and function of the filmi song sequence.
More important and less appreciated, is the fact that Shammi Kapoor’s contribution (like Dilip Kumar’s) has been absorbed into the mainstream of popular cinema in India, becoming part of the larger tradition every actor is heir to.
Thus a lot of credit for the music of the films he starred in goes to the actor himself.The Shammi Kapoor he has left behind in less than a dozen films was a tradition in himself.

Sans his elder brother Raj Kapoor's 'aura,' Shammi found his feet, thanks to his novelty of histrionic and acrobatic representation -- his own prescription in all its myriad forms: or, call it aggressive romanticism.
Shammi, thereafter, never looked back, until the turn of the 1970s, when his growing girth, in tune with his family's genetic order, could not breathe the usual mercurial flow, or 'biff-bang' element on the silver screen -- his hallmark, the apogee of his amazing versatility.
It is but amazing that when Shammi was at his peak, a glut of films were made with other male actors in lead roles -- roles tailor-made for Shammi, otherwise.

 Flashback: Serenading forever — Shammi Kapoor - Sify.com
Shammi’s newfound flamboyance as a successful star matched Jaikishan’s, and this probably explained their instant rapport and enduring association, to mark the beginning of which we bring in their first two popular songs, ‘Jhoomta mausam mast mahina...’ (Manna-Lata/Hasrat) and ‘Ab kahaan jaye hum...’.
Shammi’s frenzied choreography and the consequent injuries and medications, coupled with his devastation at wife Geeta Bali’s premature death had made the trim leading man put on weight.
The ‘mature’ and the quintessential Shammi blended in Tumse Accha Kaun Hai as Shammi traversed a gamut from ‘Kiss...kisko pyar karoon...’ to the philosophical and secular ‘Ganga meri maa ka naam...’, both penned by the wonderful Rajendra Krishan as Shailendra’s replacement complement to Hasrat Jaipuri in Shammi-land.

So Shammi Kapoor tried his hand at mythologicals and historicals.
He looked princely enough but his films did not go down too well with the audience who were not quite convinced of all that serious nobility and gallantry.
Until, Tumasa Nahin Dekha and his wild gyrations on a trotting tonga- Shammi had found his niche and the audience a new fun hero who could entertain and laugh and tease the girls as they had never been teased before.

The other interesting thing in my personal study of Shammi Kapoor on film is that each film I have seen him in was made a year or two earlier than the previous film I watched him in.
Better yet go and see Shammi's own personal web site that he designed and put together in the mid 90s http://www.junglee.org.in/ it is pretty darn cool and I believe the only true 'personal' web site constructed by a Bollywood star, evergreen or present.
