Best all time movie

This is the best movie I have ever seen. I must have watched it more than 12 times now. Rajesh Khanna & Amitabh Bachchan are superb. It shows laughing in the face of death. A must see movie.

Looks great, (so far)

I was unable to watch the entire film as the disc played up half way thru, but the 1 hour that I did manage to watch had me hooked. This is Amitabh's 2nd film ever (and the 1st in Colour). I have read that although the film lead is Rajesh Khanna, it?s Amit who steals the show, I would say I have to agree (but I might be a little bias, for being a Big B fan).

Watch it, I plan to re-hire or even buy. You?ll see why Amitabh went onto become the superstar that he is, even today 35 years later.

it is a beautiful story of a how a man brings a smile on other people's face, whilst faced with huge personal trauma of his own. how he builds up a friendship with lonely & serious doctor. a real touching story about friendship & life

Execellent Movie

Hello,

I would like to say that, old movies still overpower new movies to a large extent. The actors, the simplicity, the story, the songs are just exceptionally good.

The way Rajesh Khanna has acted in this movie makes it a must watch movie.

Rest you guys can find it out in movie...

Cheers

Thumbs up

I admit, I rented this because I heard this was Amitabh Bachan's first 'big' movie and I wanted to see what the hype was about. The movie was good, even if Rajesh Khanna was a little over the top. But the songs by Kishore Kumar was what made this movie an excellent production, the lyrics fit in welll with the story and the melodies were back then, much nicer that the fare available now. Give this a view..
