Photos: Yeh Vaada Raha's Sunita and Vikram 33 years later

Yeh Vaada Raha - (The Promise) is arguably one of the most popular Indian films ever made - at least it was very popular in Nigeria. If you didn't watch it, then you weren't born in the 80's. The main protagonists in the classic Hindi film released in 1982 were Sunita and Vikram, pictured left from a scene from the movie. That's the actors together recently on the right. Rishi Kapoor is now 62 years old and Poonam Dhillon is 53 years old. And they are still actively acting. Good to see them again!

      I was a kid then, fell in love with them, wished I could fine love so strong like theirs when I grow up but never did. All I had was promises and fail, and heart breaks until I got old enough to get married. Now I ve children but never experienced this kind of love. It is best love movie ever made, greater than Titanic.

      No. Try to remember name of that one. The story of that one is about twince and they killed one while the other guy came to fight for revenge. Though he still see the ghost of his twin and even the twin entered him to get double power at d end of the movie. I grew up in the north. That's d only movie(Indian ) we match most time

    singing in Igbo language. Sunita n'eme obi anuri..riririri. Linda in the school dorm in those days we will stay all nite talking about Sunita and Vikram and the snake girl. Nobody knows that Nollywood will come to teach us all that happened, we taught they were real then and we wanted to know what happened in their homes after.
