Movie is incredibly excellent! Music is awesome!! just awesome, the way the songs has been sung and the lyrics are the one that keep us sticking to the movie. In 70s most of the movies used to have the similar formula so obviously the mother son, two brothers, or same face mother daughter etc....and some funny or awkward looking plots are present, however the excellent acting by the lead actors is what gives a different taste to this movie. When I accidentally saw the earnings of this movie on box Office india then initially I was surprised, but when I saw the movie, I realized why it was a blockbuster at that time. The simple reason is that it "connects" with the majority of Indian audiences. The dialogues are just the reflection. I was surprised by the action avatar of the otherwise sober romantic Manoj Kumar. Such a versatile personality he is. Really a gem. The ease with which they act is simply commendable. Music is excellent as I mentioned earlier. The legendary Mukesh..........if you carefully listen how he and lata ji has sung the songs with so many smooth turns ups and down of the tunes of the songs, you will definitely praise them. The songs directly connect to the audiences and remain with them even after the movie and even after 43yrs they are soothing to the ears and easy on the vocal chords. If you listen just the tune, you will not be able to stop yourself to sing or hymn the lyrics. Simply awesome. Those who criticize these movies, should go and watch hollywood star wars or alien movies or war movies....and see how typical formula they use with all the non-sense screenplay a super hero is necessary, and so on. If hollywood movies survive on their technology then bollywood survive on music and songs. The formula or type cast at hollywood is also as it is at bollywood. Hence, just dont critize or demean the work at bollywood. Art is art. In this movie camera work...you can observe many innovations or the different angles and movements of the camera. Direction is good.
