Guest guest Posted June 9, 2002 Report Share Posted June 9, 2002 Here is some interesting trivia: * Gyan Mukherjee's Kismet (1943) was the first Hindi blockbuster which ran for three consecutive years in Bombay Talkies, Kolkata. It catapulted late Ashok Kumar to stardom. * The late Rajendra Kumar was called 'Jubilee Kumar' as most of his films celebrated silver and golden jubilees. * Two films released in 1975: Ramesh Sippy's Sholay and Vijay Sharma's Jai Santoshi Maa. Both were superhits. Sholay set a record by running for 250 weeks at Mumbai's Minerva Theatre. It was broken only recently by Aditya Chopra's Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (which celebrated 300 weeks at Maratha Mandir, Mumbai). ****** Interesting stuff ahead of the World cup ... Brazil last won the world cup in 1994. Before that they won it in 1970. Add 1970 and 1994, it equals 3964. Germany last won in 1990. Before that they won in 1974. Add 1990 and 1974, it equals 3964. Argentina last won the world cup in 1986. Before that they won it in 1978. Add 1978 and 1986, it equals 3964. So going by this logic, The winner of the 2002 world cup is the same as the 3964 - 2002 = 1962 world cup. The 1962 world cup was won by Brazil. Now the Best Part !!! Indian fans too have reason to rejoice : India has never won the world cup so we'll probably win it in the year 3964. :-)) ********* If you have liked this and want to receive more, please write a mail to krishna_fun.
