Khubsoorat

Trust Hrishi da to craft a tale of two clashing personalities, put together a talented supporting cast, witty dialogues and present "Khoobsurat". Dina ji & Rekha ji shine as two diagonally opposite personalities and stand their ground, without overshadowing eachother. Brilliant Dada Moni is the eternal peacemaker in this family comedy. Ranjit Chowdhury deserves special mention as he effortlessly slips into the role of music crazy youngster. This Khoobsurat, this era if clean family comedy cannot be recreated. It's a classic. 😀

Review By Kamal K

The directing, acting, songs, and dancing tie up together so well it makes the movie memorable. This rom-com is Rakesh and Rekha's best film together. It's always a pleasure to watch Hrishikesh Mukherjee movies. One of its kind and a gem movie. Must watch for audience's of all ages.

This film is one of my favorites. It's funny, touching, romantic, and pulls you in. It's a light, but well written story about a clash between a young woman who is a free spirit and her sister's mother in law who has lots of strict rules. Well written and believable characters and good conflict. Sometimes funny, sometimes serious. The musical numbers are imaginative, though the songs are not the best. The characters drive the story and keep you interested. You care what happens to them. I wish they had made a sequel because I want to see more of these characters and find out what happens next.

Her Excellency Very Great Madam Actress Rekha has done excellent work.

His Divine Grace Late Actor Ashok Kumar has done excellent work.

I watched this movie in Chanakaya, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi with my cousin His Excellency Very Great Mr. Anil Lalwani and his wife Her Excellency Pooja. It was excellent day in the summer of 1980.

What a theater in those days. What a movie.

Thanks and Regards.

This movie is what I call a must-watch. While it is very natural in its presentation it gives a strong message as well. With all the talk of love and freedom today it becomes even more important to see this movie which goes a step beyond and puts freedom and love in their true perspective - no freedom comes without a sense of responsibility; love alone is not enough, one needs to realize the responsibility that comes with it. This simple but profound wisdom is conveyed with great spontaneity. The movie also teaches about the thin line between rules that help and rules that are uncomfortably binding. All this in one funny, homely three hour package that is a very wholesome entertainer. Absolutely beautiful!
