The mood
Warm and romantic.
The pace
Character-first and patient, at 2 hr 2 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in Hindi, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1973: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

A popular singer encourages his wife to sing, but tensions mount between the pair when his career begins to falter and her own musical career and popularity surpasses his own.
