The film which might only be remembered for the strong portrayal by the legendry actress Smita Patil in one of her very strong and to some extent underrated performance and is beautifully supported by some of the stellar names of film industry such as Amol Palekar, Amrish Puri and underrated in Hindi cinema Anant Nag.
The execution of the film is good but for the mainstream Hindi film lovers this film might be difficult to watch due to it's dead slow speed but for the right target audience the film surely be a perfect watch. The film has some great acting and everyone was very impressive be it Amol Palekar, Anant Nag, Smita Patil but the actor who impressed me the most was Amrish Puri.
Songs of the film were good and the screenplay of the film is very slow and the film is not for every viewer. A must watch film if you're willing to watch the a film with lots of acting talents displaying their acting prowess.
