Good movie but memorable for Gopaldas 'Neeraj' songs

A wonderful adaptation of a Gulshan Nanda's Hindi novel. It's a family drama not a suspense movie, yet you will find twist in story every 15-20 minutes. Shashi Kapoor with his 880 watts smile and eccentric body movements. Rakhi in double roles & Nazir Hussain at their best. A magnificent line up of songs wonderfully penned by Gopaldas 'Neeraj' & composed by S.D.Burman namely; 1) Aaj Madhosh Hua Jaye Re, 2) O Meri Sharmeelee, 3) Kaise Kahen Hum, 4) Khilte Hain Gul Yahan 5) Megha Chhaye Aadhi Raat and even 6) Reshmi Ujala Hai Makhmali Andhera.
