Featured reviews
An interesting movie ! The story revolves around a house which is let out by the house-owner ( David ) to a series of tenants - all of whom stay for a little while, let the viewers into their lives and then leave. The movie sports some big names - though they do not appear together. Suchitra Sen is part of a runaway couple who are the first tenants. When they leave, the next set includes Kishore Kumar, Nasir Hussain and Nirupa Roy. The final set of tenants involves Usha Kiran and Dilip Kumar. And thus, one can imagine the story to continue forever ....
Kishore Kumar sings a famous, lively song 'munna bada pyaara'. The movie also has a rare song sung by the famous actor Dilip Kumar.
All in all, an interesting story, well directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee who has made several great Hindi films like Anari, Asli Naqli, Anupama, Anuradha, Anand, Guddi, Golmaal, Bawarchi etc. Definitely worth seeing.

A great film by Hrishida about 3 aspects of life. The greatest thing about the movie was the acting of Dilip Kumar.He was the best actor in the film and the only reason why I gave it 10 stars. The story is about a rental house in which David is the owner. The first part is about a couple who have eloped and married. The second part is about a family in which a widow is about to become a mother. The third part is about a family in which a widow has a small handicapped son and her brother.This is the part in which Dilip Kumar enters and is the best part of the movie Watch it for great acting of the "tragedy King" Dilip Kumar. All others have a decent performance
Presenting three unique stories, all connected via the thread that they happen in the same home, just at different times. The first one is a melodramatic one that is not helped by the rueful female lead. It is the second act that stands out the most. Presenting Kishore Kumar as a youth looking for employment(something that was detailed in Bimal Roy's 1954 'Naukri'), it almost reflects a nation's view even several decades later.
The last act lands with Dilip Kumar but honestly, failed to sway me. The songs in this film are all forgettable (though the director's next venture 'Anari' would have a classic score).

Didn't expected this movie to be that good but it turned out to be a gold from golden era of Hindi Movies.
This movie reached to me from word of mouth, Heard about it in an interview from a renowned director(National Award Winner).
The story telling is so simple and grasping. Basic screenplay but keeps everything clear. Little bit of light hearted comedy dialogues which keeps the movie alive.
Hrishikesh Mukherjee was a master in his Genre and always made movies that can be viewed again and again but will still look fresh.
Engaging movie that keeps you stuck to your chairs and make you think about the stories shown.
8/10 for this masterpiece.

This movie hits you so hard that you will watch it time after time. It is about life from different angles. It gets so tense and painful when Dilip Kumar appears after one hour or more. He plays his role so perfectly that one would smile when he smiles, and would cry when he cries!
I'm not sure if he got an award for his performance in this movie, but I must say that his performance in this movie is as good as in Devdas!
