It's the subsequent story that is the true trump card, where Khanna ensues a new life away from his wife and child within a newer more successful surrounding,and the director has appropriately made use of Khanna and his subtle acting style. Rajesh Khanna is the dashing central character who is married to Sharmila Tagore in a blissfully romantic marriage,their middle class Indian haven is interrupted by an impulsive offense by mr.Khanna and he is sentenced to death in a court case,but he escapes miraculously and is 'presumed dead' by the judiciary and his family. He explores various themes about fatalism,judicial errors,identity change,marital fidelity and human quest for survival in his intriguing love story with a brilliant cast who all look sublime and emotioally inhabit their roles immaculately. Mister Yash Chopra's 'bold and beautiful adulterous drama'from Seventies still comes across as a refreshingly grey look at the 'Indian Bollywood love triangle' and the happy mantra of the middle class Indian marriage but what distinguishes it even today is the almost voyeuristic quality that the script has given this vehicle where the viewer is left to judge it's atypical characters while the movie becomes a subtle observation of the rather more eventful aspects of human existence.
