The Ek-Anek video is on YouTube. (Works best if you're on broadband.)

Wowie! This one used to be my favorite. :)

Mona, I remember the last two that you've mentioned. And then there was another one in which an old man on his death bed calls his sons and asks them to get sticks, which he wants them to snap. Remember?

Oh yeah, i remember this one. Then there was another one on unity with fishes.. A tiny yellow fish gets lost in the wide ocean and gets chased by this big shark. He travels far and wide and meets lots of different sea creaturs. In the end, he finds hundreds of small blue fishes like himself, who're afraid of the big blue. Together, they align themselves like a large blue fish (with the yellow fish as the 'eye') and they chase the big fish again. :) i think there was a blue colored sun or something in this movie.

Yeah...and I have a copy of the "Ek, anek aur ekta" toon if you want it :) I remember these two as well, but the ek ghilariyan is my favourite. the theme was about unity and national integration...and they were good.

btw, jfyi, the song was not written by Gulzar. He didn't write EVERYTHING in those days. The entire script was by a Maharashtrian writer called Vijaya Mule. The song 'Hind desh ke nivasi' was written by Pundit Vinay Chandra 'maudralya'.
