Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for families and music lovers. Leaves you with something to think about.
The mood
Feel-good.
The pace
Lively and easy to follow.
What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • It's in Hindi, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1959: an older pace and style.
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

Gauri lives with her crippled ex-army dad and brother. One day she notices a man calling himself Ranjeet lurking around their house. What she doesn't know is that Ranjeet is here for a reason--the suitcase of gold he had buried in Gauri's front yard.
