    A forgettable melodrama with good performances
    This one is the most casual film you'll see, and it is considerably less deep than the films made during the period - arguably the golden age of Indian cinema. The story is twisted and interesting with two stories intersecting into one. But once they're all merged, after one big mess, it can't get more predictable than that. A series of lost-and-found elements of mistaken identities and what not, all based on nothing but pure coincidences, makes everything very hard to believe, whereas the delivery itself is very theatrical and stagy.

    This is the first film starring Bina Rai that I watch, and it made me want to see more of her. Her commanding presence reveals an actress who spoke much through her eyes. There are few actors who have that ability to convey their inner state through gestures and expressions rather than lines (i.e Dilip Kumar, Nutan). This of course is partially true in the case of this film - Rai's initial scenes when her supposed husband ignores her are fantastic, but later into the film she is let down by the script and is made to playact a lot.

    The lead actors, Bharat Bhushan and Pradeep Kumar, are very good. They are both shown as decent men with pure intentions, and Bhushan in particular captures this wholesome, gracious part of his character well. Asha Parekh is very young and pretty and acting-wise never more than okay. The music by Ravi is not among his best works although it's melodious throughout. The film is said to be based upon a novel by Rabindranath Tagore himself, which I'm sure was better than this script. Ramanand Sagar did better than this.
