'Bhoot Bungla' literally translates into English as 'Ghost House' though 'Haunted House' is probably more accurate. R. D. Burman who also starred in the film composed the music.
NB. bungla|bangla is the Hindi word for the Bengali style of single storey house; it also happens to be where the English word bungalow [bungla-low] is derived from. Interesting~

R. D. Burman again. The film starred Sanjeev Kumar and Jaya Bhaduri|Bachchan.
'Anamika' means something along the lines of independent woman. It's hard to explain, but basically in Hindu culture your name is supposed to represent predetermined qualities already within your being. With a name like Anamika in affect you don't have a name essentially because you're seen as someone who determines their own future. I hope that makes sense!
Anyway there were a number of hit songs from the film; I picked this out for no particular reason. The track translates into English as 'Tonight's The Night'.
Album|Film: Caravan; 192kbps; 1971

Guess who?
The 70s were definitely when R. D. Burman was at his peak, this just happens to be yet another awesome soundtrack.

Composed by the Gujarati brothers Kalyanji-Anandji this soundtrack has to be up there with some of their best.
The film also gave Rekha her first big break in Bollywood.

R. D. Burman again composed the music to this 1973 Zeenat Aman starrer though personally it's not one of my favourites.
