If you have low tolerance for Bollywood, and you think Bollywood is just all about cheesy, loud and lewd movies, than it means that you are not aware of the rare gems the Indian film industry has produced in the last 50 something years. And this film is one of such gems. I haven't seen, "Anand" the most popular film of Rishida, but I have seen Bawaichi 3 times and every time it leaves me with the sad reality that how come the Western world has not discovered movies like this. The film revolves around the relationship of a family and their new cook, played superbly by Rajesh Khanna. I don't want to go much into the details of the story of the film and cinamatic mastery of Rishida, but in short this film could be described as excellent in every aspect. If you are a fan of Indian 'art' films, than this a must see for you!

A very simple and low budget movie... but u do not get bored at any point.... great story and some great acting.. a must see for Jaya Bachan fans.

The movie revolves around a simple village girl (Jaya) who is a tom boy and different from all the girls of the village. Darling of her father, her mother fears about her marriage prospects. One day she was poking fun at a friend's place where a potential groom from a well off family, and educated from the city had come to see the friend. She is caught red handed, but instead of getting angry, the boy falls for her and sends a marriage proposal. From then on, you should see it for your self, that how the story unfolds and Jaya leaves her adolescence to take on the role of a daughter in law and wife. The sexual tension between the couple, is a highlight of the movie.
