    interesting plot

    So it was decided to cash on the offscreen affair between the lead couple. It was another story that it didnt set the screen ablaze.

    Listen to the interesting bits of information provided by Yash Chopra who is in conversation with Karan Johar in the special features section.

    It was Amitabh who actually suggested the casting.

    Dekha ek kwab and yeh kahan aa gaye hum

    are two gems amongst the other songs.

    I didnt know that Shiv-hari, the music composers included the maestro Hariprasad Chaurasia.

    Some of the scenes are really interesting to watch. Especially when Sanjeev kumar and Jayabhaduri converse about the infidelity of their respective spouses.

    The scene when Jayabhaduri tries to conceal her husbands misgivings is excellent.

    Amitabh has done a great job accepting a role which isnt the typical Bollywood hero stuff.

    Amitabh, Jaya and Rekha have showed that they are thorough professionals.

    Another feather in Yash CHopras cap

    A very interesting plot

    A rather passionate story. Watch out for excellent performance from Sanjeev Kumar, Amitabh and Jaya Bachan. This movie shows the difference between love and lust and sacrifice and selfishness.
