Wissenswertes

Teen Devian is a 1965 Bollywood film directed by Amarjeet and ghost-directed by Dev Anand. The film also stars Anand in the lead role. Filmed mostly in black and white, with some colour scenes, the movie tells the story of a poet who falls in love with three women. It is inspired by writer D.H. Lawrence's works. The music was composed by S. D. Burman, whose son Rahul Dev Burman composed the English version of this film titled "Oh Boy and Three Girls", but the print was never released.

Production

Although Amarjeet was credited as the director, Dev Anand revealed that he ghost-directed the film, thus marking his first attempt at direction, before making his official directorial debut with Prem Pujari (1970).

Saira Banu was offered one of the female lead roles, but she declined.

A sequence where Dev Anand and Simi's characters attend a mushaira is set in Kashmir, but the mushaira setting on houseboat was recreated at Mehboob Studio in Bombay.
