Ek Dujje Ke Liye is a remake of Telugu Film Maro Charitra which also starred Kamal Hassan,Madhavi who reprise their roles here. The film is directed by same director K Balachandar
The film is a good love story like a Romeo and Juliet and also has culture war thrown in. The film was a blockbuster and gave a good start for talented Kamal Hassan and Rati Agnihotri. The film is set in Goa(though people speak more in Hindi) and has a war between North Indians and South Indians. The clash is well handled and so is the love story though the idea of keeping them separate may not make sense today but for it's time its good, scenes in Hyderabad too are funny with Asrani thrown in a film obsessed Accountant. The film ends though a bit too tragically which is surprising, the rape part could be avoided though
Direction is good though some parts look like plain translated from A South film Music by LP is great, Solah Baras Ki is the best song by Lata, while Hum Banne, Mere Jeevan Saathi and other songs became famous and are superb
Kamal Hassan though a bit off in Hindi does a good job, Rati Agnihotri though tends to overact a bit too much yet it suits her part Shobha Khote is great, Satyen Kapoo is funny, Rakesh Bedi is funny as the sneezing second lead, Madhavi is good in her debut Raza Murad has an effective cameo,Asrani is hilarious
rest are okay
