Because we had the Pancham-Kishore duo

Who can forget the evergreen numbers they showered on us? From "Humein Tumse Pyar Kitna" to "Rim Jhi Gire Sawan", those melodies will engross you, will take you to another world. We can't help but be biased towards their era!
Because enmity meant Jai and Gabbar

It's either yay or nay. No diplomacy, no back bitching; enmity should be as honest as love. That's what Sholay had taught us. Enmity, back then, only meant Jai and Amzad; and we swear we miss that transparency now.

Yes, being concerned about or seeking consent from family wasn't considered backdated. The relationship of a mother with a son wasn't what we call "cool" on-screen but it was surely full of warmth. Families played an important part and wasn't always shown as the spoilers.
Because simplicity in films still existed

Love stories. Actions. Family dramas. Comedies. No genre went missing in that era but all were filled with simplicity. You'd not hesitate to sit with your family and watch a film. That innocence has disappeared somewhere and we miss it.
Those melodies. The beautiful ladies with those big buns. Full of innocence, romance and warmth, 70’s was beyond beautiful and we still can’t have enough of it. The golden era of Bollywood as we call it, there are plenty of reasons to miss the age. Here are few.
