I don't usually write review of the movies as there are millions who do and I am thankful to them. But this movie seemed like it didn't get its fare share of popularity/recognition when it should have. Yes, it was a hit movie of its time, yes people still listen to its songs now and then, but the movie, the actors, which no one knows about or talks about, deserve more than that. The lead actor Sudhir Kumar 'Mohan' beats many of actors even now. His smiley face makes my problems feel so small. He is smiling even when he is singing this heart wrenching song...'Jaane walon jara..' especially the line "Dekhta hoon tumhe..(I see you)" brought tears to my eyes. A blind man is seeing through you, when nobody else (with eyes) can or cares.. It was so gratifying that I had to watch it again and again. Ramu says to Mohan that you have such beautiful eyes and you are blind!! It is unbelievable. Yes, it was to me too. But the director 'Satyen Bose' has done such a great job with these 2 unknown actors that you immediately fall in love with them, with their friendship. You wish that you had friends like them... You wish that you could have such trust among your friends. Movie so simple, with such simple characters and very predictable storyline, which can do such a great job, is so hard to make now a days. Aah... such good old days... watch it with your family and enjoy the memory of your childhood days.
