Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi (transl. That which moves is called a car[a]) is a 1 January 1958 Indian musical comedy film directed by Satyen Bose. Starring Madhubala with the Ganguly brothers —Ashok Kumar, Anoop Kumar, and Kishore Kumar— the film revolves around a middle-aged man who resents women due to some misunderstandings and forbids his younger brothers from marrying.[2]
Expected by Kishore Kumar to flop,[3] Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi opened to major commercial success, eventually becoming the most successful work of Bose and Ganguly brothers,[1] as well as Madhubala's fourth consecutive major hit of 1958, thus solidifying her position as the top female star of the late 1950s and early 1960s.[4]
Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi has received overwhelmingly positive reviews from critics for its comical situations, soundtrack, execution, and performances.[2][5] Over the years, the film has gained classic status and has also inspired several films including Badhti Ka Naam Dadhi (1974), Saade Maade Teen (2006) and Dilwale (2015).[6][7] It was ranked #18 in 2003 Outlook Magazine poll of 25 leading Indian Directors for “Best Bollywood Movies of all time”.[8]
