Great combination with Super Star Rajesh Khanna
Shakti Samanta was one of the most successful and finest filmmakers of the Hindi Film Industry. Can anyone forget Aradhana which was the biggest blockbuster of 1969 and popular for its exotic locales and electrifying songs with Super Star Rajesh Khanna. He had a penchant for good music which was evident in all his movies.

Shakthi Samanta had produced box-office hits for Super Star Rajesh Khanna like Aradhana - 1969, Kati Patang - 1970, Amar Prem - 1971, Anuraag - 1972, Ajanabee - 1974, Mehboob - 1976, Anurodh - 1977, Ayaash - 1982, Awaaz - 1984, Alag Alag - 1985 and his movies with Super Star Rajesh Khanna were super hit.

'Samanta magic' with Super Star Rajesh Khanna didn't work with Bachchan

BILLU PLUMBER - DON't BRING SHHHHIT SRK in between, this article is about Shakti Samat death.

Billu Plumber and SRK are paakistani, there movies will be soon banned in INDIA. SRK will be kiccked on his azz 1000000000 time till he run away to paaakistan with his paakistani fans like Billu plumber.
ALL SRK MOVIES are real SHHHIT, If you don't beleive then watch any of his recent movies like Billu or Rab Ne bana de jodi, you will hang yourself after watching SRK's torture.

@Indian A
Shakti Samanta was a rival of Yash Chopra and therefore was jealous of SRK. Apart from that there is no other reason to compare them. May Shakti rest in peace.
But SRK is the A(asli) Indian. He is the benchmark for everyone else to follow. He dwarfs the entire Bachchan clan, plus AK, plus other Khanz plus Hrithik. I mean nowaday Yash CHopra has to lick SRK's feet to get some money in. RNBDJ was a hit because of SRK and nothing else.

@ indian A

The entire India will bend backwards and crawl on their feet if they have to, just to catch a glimpse of SRK. He is bigger than anyone and anything else. He is bigger than India itself. In alot of countries around he world, people only know of India as a country where SRK chose to live. Hail him or perish you BJP supporter!!!

Don't forget Chinatown (Shammi Kapoor) and Howdah Bridge (Ashok Kumar); two old thrillers he directed.

i asked red.iff to change the word "dies" to "passes away" in my comment, and they have del-eated my comment. Red.iff, that's fine given your charecter, but at least you could have changed the title!

He was a great and most respected producer with a very long career. Rediff should have interviewed Devanand & Shammi Kapoor as well as Pran & Amin Sayanee who would have definetely contributed the Golden memories and greatness of Shaktida.

A film maker's personality is reflected in his movies; and Shakti Samantha ji's evergreen personality was evident in all the lovely movies he created which will live for eternity. Who can forget movies like Aradhana, Amar Prem & Kati Patang and all the others. May God grant his soul rest an eternal peace and a place in heaven.
