This was a very ambitious project touched upon by Hrishikesh Mukherjee, which turned out to be a big commercial flop. Due to its basic theory of fleshing out the character of Satyapriya Acharya (Dharmendra) as a staunch honest man who refuses to bend down to any action that even faintly smells of dishonesty and corruption. He was born into a family...
This writer considers this film among the ten best Amitabh Bachchan starrers in which the director-writer Hrishikesh Mukherjee took him entirely out of his ‘angry young man’ box. It was a challenge to his screen image – to perform as the son of another great actor Om Prakash and last, but never least, bringing to celluloid life one of the best fath...
Few youngsters of the present generation have seen Mukherjee’s directorial debut film Musafir. Because the print of the film has perhaps been lost to time. And few have any recollections of having watched the film. It carried the seeds of a giant tree waiting to flourish, spread its branches wide and roots as deep as a banyan tree, and marked many ...

It is the only film in the history of Hindi cinema to pair Balraj Sahni and Leela Naidu as husband and wife and Abhi Bhattacharya as the third angle in an imaginary triangle. Some s...
The inaugural film, which doubled up as a birthday tribute to Amitabh Bachchan, was Abhimaan (1973), featuring Amitabh Bachchan and his wife, Jaya Bachchan. The film, apart from being enriched by the sterling performances of the lead pair along with Asrani, A K Hangal, Bindu, and David in important character roles, stands out because of the “pooled...
A simple lie about having a look-alike twin brother turns into an elaborate, if the risky plan of deception in this hilarious comedy about an employee trying to trick his conservative boss into keeping his new high-paying job. Hrishikesh Mukherjee’s 1979 cult comedy was remade in Tamil as Thillu Mullu, in Kannada as Aasegobba Meesegobba, in Malayal...
I have kept this towards the end of this list because of the rather dramatic twists Mukherjee used to add more drama to the relationship between the very poor Somu (Rajesh Khanna). The wealthy industrialist’s son Vicky (Amitabh Bachchan), which was not needed at all in this film as the story was powerful in itself as a beautiful saga of the friends...
Jaya Bachchan was the star of this film, where she is seen to be a cheerful, happy-go-lucky young girl who is very friendly with the kids in the society where she resides with her father (Ashok Kumar). A new tenant, Shekhar Dayal, takes up residence on the terrace flat of the same complex. He keeps to himself and has a telescope he often looks thro...
