The Mehul Kumar & Jeetendra partnership
From Anokha Bandhan (1982) to Aasoo Bane Angaarey (1993). The unfolded closed with Aasoo Bane Angaarey in 1993. It started with Anokha Bandhan (1982).
The shape of the work
The 1980s account for 75% of everything they made together. The 1980s belonged to Anokha Bandhan; the 1990s to Aasoo Bane Angaarey. Mehul Kumar directed every film; Jeetendra acted in all of them. Strictly Hindi cinema — they never crossed industries together.
Partnership facts
- Mehul Kumar cast Jeetendra in 'Asmaan Se Ooncha' (1989) after the actor's string of hits with other directors. Jeetendra agreed because Kumar promised a role that wasn't just a song-and-dance routine — it was a serious family drama.
- On the sets of 'Nafrat Ki Aandhi' (1989), Jeetendra reportedly pushed Mehul Kumar to shoot action sequences in real locations instead of studio sets. Kumar gave in, and the film's raw look became its only talking point.
- Jeetendra and Mehul Kumar never socialized outside work. Their relationship was strictly professional — no dinners, no phone calls between films. The three movies were made like clockwork, then they went their separate ways.
- The only reason 'Aasoo Bane Angaarey' (1993) got made was because Jeetendra owed Mehul Kumar a film after 'Nafrat Ki Aandhi' underperformed. Kumar wrote the script specifically to use Jeetendra's star power for a revenge drama.
- Mehul Kumar once said in an interview: 'Jeetendra never asked me for a script change. He just showed up, did his lines, and left. That's why we made three films — no drama.'
