Sadhana: with Sunil Dutt in Waqt (1965).
Sadhana: with Sunil Dutt in
Waqt (1965). This was one of her few swimsuit appearances; she also appeared in one in Budtameez. (See
Shammi Kapoor
Waqt (1965): (Sadhana) tells (Sunil Dutt) that he is entering the wrong, i.e. the women’s, shower cabin.
Waqt (1965): Despite director Yash Chopra’s pretences to Western sophistication, this means that the female (Sadhana) goes to the shower room with a blue door, while the man (Sunil Dutt) enters the pink shower room.
Waqt (1965): (Sadhana) begins to take her swimsuit off.
Waqt (1965): While (Sadhana) is doing so, (Sunil Dutt) offscreen, switches off the lights of her cabin from some switch in his shower cabin! Mercifully, modern hotel swimming pools do not have this facility (if they ever did)
Waqt (1965): The sudden darkness causes (Sadhana) to freeze in panic.
This was considered the most erotic sequence ever shown in an Indian film till then because of the implied stripping off of the swimsuit’s top.
It was also applauded for the way it built up tension in the mind of the third angle of the film’s love triangle. (Raaj Kumar) was in the corridor outside the two adjacent shower rooms, eavesdropping on the lovebirds’ conversation, seething with jealousy and unconsciously lighting matchstick after matchstick.
