8/10
What a movie!!
27 May 2010
Someone has rightly said, you can watch this movie any number of times. The best part of Hrishikesh Mukharjee's movies is that he captures the time period, the lifestyle of that era where movie is setup, simple events or references from day to day life that reveals a lot about the time and society. This one is no exception.

It will always give you a feeling of freshness even if you watch it continuously for a week. Pleasant is the one word I would like to associate with this movie in it's true sense. Utpal Datt is outstanding in his act, but he is Amol Palekar who stole the show. He beautifully executed the pole apart characters, the credit should be given to the director I would say.

How long we would have to wait for someone like Hrishida to give us simple and perfect marvels like this.
