I could not see the movie after it's release in 1968. But the songs became so famous that I could not resist to watch the movie at a later stage. I was laughing loudly in the theatre annoying my companion. The movie scores on all fronts. A perfect farce, superb acting by all, beautiful music and apt direction. It is an evergreen movie and can be watched any nuber of times. Every time, it refreshes your mind. It allows you to forget your worries, dirty politics and the overall degradation in our society! If the young generation has missed it so far, it is a must watch movie.
