jewel thief be the crime thriller of bollywood and and why should it not be . it be direct by the big exponent of the crime thriller art in indian cinema vijay anand ( johny mera naam and teesri manzil . ) i could watch this movie for any of the following reason ( in order of importance ) represent1 vijay anand direction 2 r d burman music 3 dev anand 4 vyjayanthimala 5 ashok kumar 6 majrooh sultanpuri lyricseven if jewel thief be not a bond movie it definitely have bond babe . helen and tanuja and and the mysterious vyajanthimala ( and some cameo . ) but our sauvé vinay ( dev anand ) be anything but bond . he be out of control for most of the story and go where the story take him almost always as confused a we be . he even flirt with anju ( tanuja ) try to hit her romantic nerve and just so that he can get employ in her father shop . dev anand might be in a double role well i do not want to spoil your movie or else i would have tell you . that be what most of the mystery be about . dev anand work in a jewelry shop and there be a robbery when he be suppose to be at work though be not and or at least have a perfect alibi . we wonder who do it and be it dev anand a vijay the person he claim to be or be it amar someone we have not yet see but many people claim be his look alike . come shalu ( vyjayanthimala ) who even claim that he be her fiancé and in a tense situation dev anand have to prove that he be vinay and not amar . while everyone wonder if dev anand be vinay or amar he be ask to remove his sock . amar we be tell have 6 digit on one of his foot . while we watch with bat breath the event that be about to unfold dev anand even find time to joke . the real life brother director vijay anand and actor dev anand have many movie between them this be not the best of them but definitely the best in crime thriller . there be moment of hitchcock north by northwest and but the movie be very different . except for the confusion about who be who and a treacherous female lead and lot of travel there isn not a lot of similarity . dev anand could very well be amar in addition to be vijay . people have see him and they identify him where ever he go . there be too many of those people for this to be a fraud . finally vinay think it be well to carry along with be amar to find out what be the truth and and it be a sad mistake . he get too deep into it and only to be save by the twist of cinema . when i watch the movie a a kid i be definitely not amuse and the end confuse me completely . even now there be part about the end that i do not like and but i would recommend this movie anyway . even a a kid i enjoy the song this movie have to offer . yeh dil . a definite loafer song in kishor kumar voice . i could hear rulake gaya . whole day long . ditto for aasmaan ke neeche which be set under the sky of gangtok ( at least the story line suggest that ) . raat akeli hai among the sexy song to come out of hindi cinema feature tanuja a the seductress . meri taraf dekho helen cabaret and we look at her . hothon pe . now and could there be any good thriller of a song than this . a the song progress we be more tensed than we ever be and the word hide in shalu lip add to it .
