Shor

Manoj Kumar directed and starred in this 1972 film, the film revolves around the relationship of a mute son and his father. Shor means noises which is emphasised through out the film. Manoj Kumar gives a great performance as the father of the boy, for whom he tries to raise money for his son to have an operation so that he can talk. The ending is emotional and unexpecting. There are many great songs in the film. There is also a bit of romance in the film, the female lead is played by Jaya Badhuri. This is a sad film but it has an excellent story line which makes a change.

This is a Hindi language film starring Manoj Kumar and Jaya Bhaduri.

This film is the perfect example of a formula film. It would have been tolerable if it were shorter. But with its length and predictable, melodramatic storyline, I was forwarding it at many instances. Writer - Director - Hero Manoj Kumar has no doubt put a lot of effort into the film. Likewise at least one song in the film (Ek Pyaar Ka Nagma Hai) is memorable even today 50+ years later! And I'm sure the film would have performed well as a wholesome family entertainer back in the day. But cinema has evolved, and much more even back then even with regional films back in the 60s and 70s. If only Hindi cinema had kept pace. I rate it 6/10.

A great story written by Manoj Kumar,It gives the message to live the life after such hard incidents occurs,A song Ek pyar ka nagma hai is a gem of whole movie,All the actors did their job perfectly, especially legendary actor Manoj Kumar,One of the best movies in Indian History.

This is the most wonderful movie i have ever seen. Bollywood or Hollywood cant make a movie better than this. And its not easy to understand this movie for everyone. Only those people who have been cheated in their life and are of tired of 'trying', 'trying' and 'trying' can understand this movie.

Wonderful !

This whole movie shows the struggle between an ordinary human being and his fate. And in the end its eventually human being that wins but fate also wins...

What a story...

Best wishes everyone...

An amazing story for its time. A tale of a father and son coping after a tragic accident,and how their misfortunes affect them. This film has one of the most beautiful soundtracks. If only he could hear his son speak again?... A definate tear jerker. A must see!
