Synopsis

Bombay-based Rajesh lives a fairly wealthy lifestyle with his parents – a housewife and a rather parsimonious businessman named Amirchand. One day while walking on the beach, he comes across a beautiful blind girl named Shivani.

Our take

A gem from Shakti Samanta’s vault of timeless classics, this family drama is a simple, life-affirming tale, which makes a case for having faith in human goodness. Moushmi Chatterjee’s compelling screen presence and S. D. Burman’s inspired music lend a rich depth to an understated tale.
