5:22..Do Lafson Ki Hai Ye Zindagaani..by Pran Katariya..Search filters
Amitabh Bacchan and Zeenat Aman share a romantic moment during a glamorous gondola ride shot in Venice, Italy for The Great Gambler (1979).
Venice’s Grand Canal and its rich tradition of gondoliering are featured prominently in this all-time fan favorite song.
Sharad Kumar: laa, laa, laa… amore mio, dove sei tu?My love, where are you? ti sto cercando, tesoro mio!
I am searching for you, my treasure!
Amitabh Bacchan: “amore mio, dove sei tu..” ai kyaa gaa rahaa hai?
What is he singing?
Asha Bhonsle: apne pyaar ko yaad kar rahaa hai aur kah rahaa hai ki…
He is remembering his love and saying…
Amitabh Bacchan: na, na, na aise nahii.n! gaa ke sunaao na?
No, not like this! Sing it for me, won’t you?
Asha Bhonsle: gaa ke? acchhaa!
Sing it? Okay!
do lafzo.n kii hai dil kii kahaanii
The tale of my heart is only two words long. yaa hai muhabbat, yaa hai javaanii
Is it love or is it youth?
Sharad Kumar: amore mio, il tempo vola
My love, time flies. prendilo, prendilo, amore mio!
Catch it, catch it, my love!
The
on-screen chemistry shared by the leading pair serves as the backbone
for this lighthearted, action-packed, and often nonsensical film.
Please don’t ask me the meaning of my heart’s words. kuchh aur ham se bas ab na puuchho
Please don’t ask me anything now. jis ke liye hai duniyaa diivaanii
What the world has gone mad for, yaa hai muhabbat, yaa hai javaanii?
Is it love or is it youth?
yah kashTiivaalaa kyaa gaa rahaa thaa?
What was that gondolier singing about? koii ise bhii yaad aa rahaa thaa
He was reminded of someone special qisse puraane, yaade.n puraanii
along with old tales and old memories. yaa hai muhabbat, yaa hai javaanii?
Is it love or is it youth?
is zindagii ke din kitne kam hai.n
The days of this life are limited in number. kitnii hai.n khushiyaa.n aur kitne gham hai.n
they are filled with so much joy and so much sorrow. lag jaa gale se, rut hai suhaanii
So embrace me, in this beautiful season. yaa hai muhabbat, yaa hai javaanii
Is it love or is it youth?
do lafzo.n kii hai dil kii kahaanii
The tale of my heart is only two words long. yaa hai muhabbat, yaa hai javaanii
Is it love or is it youth?

Synopsis
Jai (Amitabh Bachchan) is an expert gambler, has been for as long as he can remember, and has never lost a game. These skills bring him to the attention of the underworld don Ratan Das (Madan Puri), who is interested in hiring him to win large amounts of money from rich people and then influencing them into doing whatever he wants. Jai agrees to do so, and plays successfully, though unknowingly to entrap Nath (Jagdish Raj) who works for the government. After losing large amounts of money, he is blackmailed into revealing the blueprints of a top-secret military laser weapon that can hit any target within 50 miles. When the Indian police come to know of this, they assign the case to Inspector Vijay (also Amitabh Bachchan), who is asked to apprehend Jai at any cost. The only problem is that Inspector Vijay is Jai's look-alike, and is not at all a good gambler.After this Jai and Vijay get confusingly mixed up as Jai and Vijay both coincidentally are sent to Rome where Vijay is sent to retrieve evidence against underworld don Saxena by his former henchman and Jai is onto a money-making scheme where he would marry his rich girlfriend Mala (Neetu Singh) to inherit her money. Mala however mistakens Vijay for Jai at the Rome airport and Vijay decides to go along with this to find out who his lookalike is. Jai meanwhile meets Shabnam (Zeenat Aman), a club dancer who has been sent by Saxena to distract Vijay and stop him on his mission to retrieve evidence against Saxena. However Shabnam mistakes Jai for Vijay and Jai is embroiled into killing Saxena's former henchman to retrieve the blueprints of the laser weapon.
