"Qayamat se Qayamat Tak" is an unforgettable picture. It wouldn't be wrong to call QSQT a landmark movie in the history of Indian cinema. A love-story, the type of which can hardly be made again. I t was released in the 80s, when there was a deluge of similar-looking action and formula films. QSQT came in as a real breath of fresh air. It was the ultimate love-story. A story about two warring families, stubborn parents, and despite all this the children of these families fall in love with each other. Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla were relaunched after making respective debuts in "Holi" and "Sultanate", and I don't remember having seen anybody else fresher than these two. Their pair was amazing. Actors and actresses now lack that innocence. There was no sex and no violence, and yet the film had such a wide appeal. Actually, the simple and the innocent approach of the film was it's greatest plus-point. Another big thing contributing to the timeless appeal of the film is it's music. The late Majrooh Sultanpuri's unforgettable lyrics ("Papa kahte hain...", "Aye mere humsafar...", "Ghazab ka hai din..." and all the songs) and col tunes composed by the Anand-Milind duo (why don't they do something like this once again) were matchless. In a nutshell "Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak" is a movie no true movie-lover should miss.
