In one word, the movie is a classic.
Of course my Tamilian friends would lead me to believe that the Tamil version is better
:-) ( I haven’t seen that one myself).
The few key things which makes it an evergreen classic.
Total family entertainer.
Class acting from Amol Palekar and Utpal Dutt.
I am a big fan of both.
I was kind of disappointed with Amol Palekar in Aks.
He is classier than that.
- The movie used the age old twin-brother concept of Bollywood but in a very
new way.
- The songs are great particularly ’’Aane Wala Pal’’ and
’’Sab Golmal Hai’’.
- The whole movie was practically indoors and yet it left such
a big impact.
- The dialogue delivery in this movie by Utpal Dutt and
Amol Palekar then went onto become a part of their image.
I would love to see the movie again and again and never get tired of it.
