Rajesh Khanna and Amitabh Bachan put in two of the best performances of
Indian cinema. Although Amitabh Bachan in a louder role got more praise
from
the masses, it is Rajesh Khanna in a role that required underplaying, who
is
the heart of the film and whose acting performance is as good if not better
than that of Amitabh. This is not to say that Amitabh puts in a truly great
acting performance (one of his best).
The film itself is excellent and is another tribute to the greatness and
versatility of Hrishikesh Mukherjee (director). Quite simply put, it is in
the 'MUST NOT MISS' category. By the way the excellent music is also a real
plus.
