*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

Commercial Hindi movies tend to follow a cliché style. There is a hero and a heroin, there is a villain or villains in the path of true love, but in the end they live 'happily ever after' while they are at it they sing and dance together. This movie is a bit different.

While this movie borrows somewhat from such clichés, it is far from an assembly line production. They have mixed things so beautifully that they transformed the silver screen into a living work of art. In that process the movie makers have brought about and discussed social issues which could not be done in the conservative society of the time - such as marital discord, divorce and the role of in laws at a time when family set-up was moving from that of a joint to a nuclear family.

While I see this movie to have some intellectual value to it, I would still say it a moving drama that anyone can enjoy. Just keep your tissues ready. And so as not to spoil it for you, I will keep the ending in suspense.
