Jayshree T.’s wearing blue; I don’t know who the other dancers are. Singers are Asha Bhosle and Usha Mangeshkar, musical director Ravi.
Dhund was directed by B.R. Chopra. There are moments in this dance that remind me strangely of a couple of mujras in a much earlier film that he directed, called Sadhna. But then sometimes it’s very different, too.
Jayshree T. is very unique. Every so often, I look at a bunch of dances of hers that I haven’t seen before, and I end up liking her even more. Out of the dancers who came up in the late ’60s through the ’70s, she is one of the very best.

Thanks for posting. I wonder if the one in pink is her sister.
Hmm, well, it could be… I tried to find out the answer to this question in a search, but every site I saw that mentioned a dancer at all just mentioned what I already knew, that the dancer in blue was Jayshree T. I find it strange how so many sites are just happy to name one dancer when there are two or even three on the screen, and nobody even bothers to put the question out there regarding the identity of the other dancer(s). (This is at least the third time I’ve had to deal with this sort of mystery in recent memory.)
