watching in 2022!!!

I always wanted to watch this movie as i am a huge fan on Amit ji and Rekha ji. Finally watched the movie and here is what I felt.

Amazing movie, great dialogs and amazing poetry, every actor is fantastic. Hate for the character of 'SHOBHA from bottom of my heart!!!

The ENDING makes no sense in present time but yah respect for the boldness of director and writer for creating such an unique story back then.

Honestly I don't like the ending. Its so sad to see such stories where at the end social stereotypes win over human emotions and feelings..

I hate Shobha!!!!!!! She truly is the problem.

Trivia
The song "Neela Aasman" is actually based on a tune that Shammi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan composed together while shooting for Zameer (1975). During the making of Silsila (1981), Amitabh Bachchan called Shammi Kapoor to ask permission to use the tune. Shammi Kapoor had totally forgotten about it, and when reminded, he happily said: "Go ahead! Do whatever you want to with it!".

Quotes
Amit Malhotra: I and my solitude often discuss / How it would have been if you were here / You would be amazed at this, you would laugh at that / If you were here this would happen, if you were here that would happen / I and my solitude often discuss...
