Basant Bahar (Hindi- 1960)
http://www.dvddhamaka.com/pagecontent.cfm?id=movie_detail&DID=Baar4
Gopal one day hears the voice of
Lehri baba, one of the great singers of his time. After recovering his own
voice, he follows Lehri baba into deep forests, wandering in a world of music,
with a flute as his sole companion.
As chance would have it, he is destined for greater achievements. He learns
music from his new teacher and once again the land echoes with his immortal
songs.
Tipu Sultan, the great Emperor, learns of his fame and sends a message through
sarkar to arrange for the Queen to hear Gopal's songs in the palace. But Gopal
has said farewell to the world of courts and palaces; he coldly rejects the
invitation, saying that anyone who wants to hear his songs can come to the
temple where he usually sings.
Disillusioned in mind and carrying in his heart the scars of a lost love, Gopal
sings his last song in the temple, a song that would transcend the barriers of
life and live for ever. Among those who hear the song are Tipu Sultan, who comes
there personally in a desperate hurry to save the life of the great singer, and
Gopi, who even after she has poisoned herself, rushes to the temple to dissuade
him from making the supreme sacrifice.
