Devar

Few parts very progressive, some very regressive. Good background film while doing something else. #stitchingdiaries :D

Devar is a love story based film about two lovers Shankar and Bhanwariya. Both loved each other in childhood however they were separated by fate. Shankar grows up to become Dharmendra and by fate is supposed to marry Bhanwariya played by Sharmila Tagore. But since its an arrange marriage Dharmendra's brother goes to see Sharmila Tagore but falls for her and writes two letters due to which Dharmendra married Sharmila's sister. Now Dharmendra is devastated. Rest of the film is about how things get sorted. There is lot of drama going on here. This movie is a must watch because of Dharmendra's acting. The amount of sympathy you will have for him is insane. Its sad Bollywood didn't utilise his romance talent. It was a hit film for Dharmendra Its overall a masterpiece
