A Sinceridade dos Sentimentos

For a number of reasons this films stands out among the myriad mass produced Hindi films which the industry turns out. This isn't your average Hindi film for the very simple reason that it deals with a controversial theme - an extra-marital relationship. The script, barring a few flaws, is exceptionally good. The same can be said of the acting. Amitabh is simply brilliant. You cannot see any other actor taking his place. In the beginning of the film he plays the clown. The transformation of his persona in the face of getting married to a woman he does not love, is something only an actor of Amitabh's calibre could have pulled off. His role is central to the film, and it is quite exceptionally played. Then he is once again at his clowning best when he sings Rang Barse in his own voice.

I would have given this film 10 out of 10, if it were not for the ending. You get the impression that the film makers were in a hurry to end the film.
