Ek Duuje Ke Liye

The scene is a small town in India before liberalisation and globalisation. In fact, I don't think America or any foreign country is mentioned in the script or any picturisation done there. contrast this with Bollywood of 2000s where the only Indian part is language and actors.

The people are simple and the life of young ones are sans complications. If today's Indian youth were not panting after career, America etc., then they would fall in love exactly like this.

The story is well executed on screen. There are no contemporary obsessions like morality, or Indian versus American values or saas-bahu conspiracies. Even the numerous plots by girl's mother (Shubha Khote) to separate the lover duo are almost poetic and are received by the lovers as tests of the path of love.

The songs and the ending are the highpoint of the film. Rakesh Bedi adds comic relief. This is one of the few films where no villain / negative characters is trying to marry either lover.

I saw it in PAK circa 1982, probably 5 or 6 times, the songs are top notch...the heroine is as fine as all outdoors , the hero is a likable tool. It is nice story with a non-mundane ending, which is usually typical of "Bollywood" nonsense...Just watch it, you will like it - I think. If you don't dig the story, you will not deny the songs =) I was a youngster in 82, but I still liked it then, not even knowing what it meant to be in that state. Now, I know what its all about and will preach it to anyone that listens, hahaha...don't hate on love , that is all I have to say about that, ala Forest Gump - And why do I need 10 lines to be approved for commenting, I was done after 5 lines, the last few lines are plain jibberish!

Loved the story. I have seen it atleast 5 times and I still love it. It is an amazing movie and would recommend everyone to watch it. The entire family members can watch it and enjoy it. I still remember seeing it at my hometown the very first time with all the ender members of the family. All of us enjoyed alot.

Tamil-speaking young man who moves to Goa with his family. There, he meets Sapna (Rati Agnihotri), a North Indian Hindi-speaking girl. Despite the language barrier and cultural differences, they fall deeply in love. Their relationship becomes the talk of the town, but their respective families are vehemently opposed to their union due to their different regional and linguistic backgrounds.

Their love is constantly tested by family, society, and even fate. After mounting pressure from their families, the two are forcibly separated for one year, with the condition that if they still want to be together after that time, their families will consider the marriage.

However, even during their separation, things don't go smoothly. Vasu moves to Hyderabad and faces immense emotional turmoil. Meanwhile, Sapna is also forced into an engagement by her family and suffers mental harassment. Eventually, the two lovers try to reunite, but their paths are riddled with trauma, misunderstanding, and cruelty from others.

I don't know how any one can even dare to cut 1 star, truely deserve 10 star and should top the chart of IMDB.
