As a cinephile who has witnessed countless films, I must say that Baghban, released in 2003, left an indelible mark on my heart and mind. The storyline, starring legends like Amitabh Bachchan, Hema Malini, and Salman Khan, resonated deeply with me due to its poignant portrayal of family dynamics and the emotional turmoil that ensues when traditional values clash with modern-day expectations.
In 2003, when Ravi Chopra’s film Baghban hit the screens, it stirred cinema enthusiasts with its emotionally charged narrative. Featuring Amitabh Bachchan and Hema Malini, this movie is often referred to as a timeless classic. The 2003 release of Baghban is also notable for its profound dialogues; many are so thought-provoking that they can leave you feeling deeply moved.
In the film Baghban, Amitabh Bachchan portrayed the character of Raj Malhotra, a former banker who was once married to Hema, playing Pooja Malhotra. Do you recall when Big B, as Raj Malhotra, mentioned that parents are the base or roots of a tree? “Are parents the foundation or roots of life?”
Let’s dig deep into 13 Baghban dialogues that discuss how the Malhotra family functioned:
13 Baghban dialogues that will make you feel overwhelmed
1. Ek baap agar apne bete ki zindagi ka pehla kadam uthane mein uski madad kar sakta hai…toh wahi beta apne baap ke aakhri kadam uthane mein usse sahara kyun nahi de sakta?
In this particular scene, it was Amitabh Bachchan portraying the character of Raj Malhotra who posed a question: Why is it that the child I nurtured refuses to stand by me in my later years?
2. Maa-baap kisi ke seedhi ke paydan nahin hote. Maa-baap zindagi ke ped ki jadd hain. Ped kitna bhi bada kyun na ho jaaye, kitna hi hara-bhara hi kyun na ho jaaye, jadd kaatne se woh hara-bhara nahin reh sakta.
In a stirring finale, Big B passionately expressed an unforgettable line. Likewise, during his discourse, Malhotra highlighted the importance of parents by poetically referring to them as the ‘root system’ in a family (comparing it to a tree).
3. Tum ho toh hum hain, hum hain toh sab kuch hai, warna kuch nahin hai.
During the book launch, Malhotra openly expressed heartfelt affection for his wife, Pooja.
4. Jo bachche apne maa-baap ko pyaar nahin de sakte, sahara nahin de sakte, maan-samman nahin de sakte, main unko kabhi maaf nahin karta. Unhein main saza deta hoon. Unse main naata tod deta hoon.
Big B mouthed this dialogue after his sons sought an apology from them after the speech.
5. Pyar hi toh woh jaadu hai…jo umar bhar jawan banaye rakhta hai.
In this movie, the conversation takes place during the early part, specifically when Raj Malhotra and his wife, Pooja Malhotra, are commemorating their 40th wedding anniversary.
6. Tumhare bagair toh hum sirf jee rahe the…dil ne dhadakna toh uss din shuru kiya jis din aap hum mein mili.
In a scene, Raj expresses love for wife Pooja on the occasion of their anniversary.
7. Aap ghanti bajaye na bajaye…aapke kadmo ki aahat se mere dil ki ghanti pehle se baj jati hai.
To begin the scene, Hema Malini’s character, Pooja, delivers these words upon seeing her husband, Raj, when she opens the door and he rings the bell.
8. Tumhari aankhon se tumhara dil dikhta hai…jis mein meri tasveer chupi hui hai.
Salman Khan mouthed this dialogue while expressing love to his girlfriend, Arpita.
9. Aap mere bhagwan ho jo meri zindagi mein mere pita bankar aaye, jisne aise bachche ka haath thama, jiski iss duniya mein koi zaroorat nahin thi, na uska koi naam tha. Ek patthar tha sirf ek patthar…
Once more, a powerful emotional moment unfolds as Salman Khan, playing the character of Alok, responds with these words upon Big B expressing his view that they are divine-like.
10. Aapko ye baat toh manni hogi ki aapke bachcho mein pehle se hi wo skill wo talent wo kaabiliyat thi jinke badolat unhone khud apne liye raaste banaye manzilein banai ye ghar banaya aur yehi nahin dad apne present ke saath apna future bhi secure kiya.
In a different wording, Samir Soni, the actor portraying Sanjay (Raj Malhotra’s son), conveys to him that he hasn’t played a significant role in shaping his life. Interestingly, the scenario reverses when Sanjay subtly points out to Raj that he, unlike his father, has ensured a secure future for himself.
11. Hamari aatma hamara ansh hone ke bawajood ye itna nahin samjh pa rahe hain ki unke maa-baap do nahin ek hain. Arey jinhe bhagwan ne ek kiya hai unhi ko ye dono ek karne ki soch rahe hain.
Big B delivers these lines in a scene when they are asked to live separately with their sons.
12. Tumhe iska rona toh nazar aa gya, apni maa ke aansu nahin, uski mamta uska pyaar, tumhe kuch bhi nazar nahin aaya, chhodo tumse toh ye sawaal karna hi fizool hai kyunki tum shayad bhool chuke ho ki tum mere bete ho lekin mujhe humesha yaad rahega ki main tumhari maa hoon.
“In the given situation, Hema, playing Pooja, recalls that while her own tears went unnoticed by her son Ajay, he became concerned when his spouse began to cry. ‘Did you make her cry?’ she asks, referring back to a past incident.”
13. Daadu…aapko ek baat bolun? Aap yahan kabhi mat aana.
In a poignant moment, Raj Malhotra’s beloved grandson advises him against staying at his parents’ home.
The movie delves into the relationships within the Malhotra clan. Tension ensues once Raj retires and chooses to invest more time with his four boys, which he views as his ‘investments’. Being a banker, Raj finds that his savings for the future are depleted because he thinks of his sons as his ‘long-term deposits’.
In addition to Amitabh Bachchan, the film Baghban featured Salman Khan in a significant part. Salman portrayed the character of Raj and Pooja’s adopted son, Alok. Mahima Chaudhry was chosen for the role of his love interest who eventually became his wife, Arpita.
