One of my all time favorites! Natural acting - not only by lead players (Nutan, Sunil Dutt) but Sulochana, Tarun Bose, Lalita Pawar & Shashikala as well. Hardly any histrionics given the Bold theme (pragmatism vs tradition) with Pragmatism winning in the end. At no point of time the Director needlessly stretched a situation. Poignant & moving forward. Superb editing.
