The concept and story of the movie seem to be based on the bonding between real life singers Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle.

However, it seems to be from Asha Bhosle's point of view.

In real life too, many times Asha bhosle as passed unpleasant remarks towards Lata Mangeshkar in public. She was also one of the most opportunist singers of her time. The way she used R. D Burman for her career is not hidden from anyone.

In this film, if we imagine the character of Bansi to be based on Asha Bhosle, the character is shown to be a victim where her sister does bad to her out of jealousy. Like her marriage to a bad man. But in reality, Asha was in love and had ran away with the assistant of Lata Mangeshkar. It was her own choice. Lata Mangeshkar was angry with her because she expected her to share the financial responsibility of the family members. They didn't speak for long because Asha Bhosle never took any responsibilities. She just wanted all goodies and wanted in an easy way.

I can go on writing about it but feel that it is not worth to give attention to an opportunist, greedy lady whom we can call a pros**tute for the way she used (give and take) people to defeat her sister's career.

Overall you can watch this movie as a generic family drama but if you start matching with the real life singers, it seems to be mere a propganda film.
