Jab Jab Phool Khile (transl.Whenever the Flowers Bloomed) is a 1965 Indian Hindi-language romantic drama film, starring Shashi Kapoor and Nanda. The story is of a poor boy who is a boatman in Kashmir and falls in love with a rich tourist. The film became a "blockbuster" at the box office, and was No. 2 in top ten grossing films at Box Office India of 1965.[2] The songs by the music composing duo Kalyanji Anandji, assisted by then little-known Laxmikant Pyarelal are highlights of the film (lyrics by Anand Bakshi). The film was screened in Algeria's cinema halls every two days for a couple of years; there had been public demand for it. Shashi Kapoor was one of the most successful Indian actors in North African countries such as Algeria, Morocco, and Libya. In the souks of Marrakesh, even today, some older shopkeepers will give you a discount if you are from the land of Shashi Kapoor.[3]
