4.0 out of 5 stars
Musical and Comical Love Story, May 25, 2011
Not much of a plot here but it is still an enjoyable movie. Dev Anand's and Nutan's father's are enemies and when they think of making their own houses, both end up purchasing a plot of land in front of each other's. And they also end up with the same architect Rakesh (Dev Anand). Dev's father insists to his son that his house should be better than the others' not knowing that the others' architect was Dev only. And Nutan on her father's behalf says the same thing. How Dev manages all this is what the story is about. He fools Nutan, her father and his own father with lies and he still has time to romance with Nutan.
The songs are unforgettable with "Dil Ka Bhawar Kare Pukar" being my favorite. Actually this song is well shot. They could not shoot the song in real Qutb Minar because it is a narrow staircase and it would be impossible to shoot the song with all the cameras rolling. And the actor's movements could not be restricted as well. So they had to build a "Qutb Minar like" structure on the sets and the cameras are cleverly concealed.
Another song "Ek Ghar Banaounga" is wonderfully pictured. Dev imagines Nutan in his glass of wine and sings to her promising that he will build a house for both of their parents even though they might be enemies.
Other melodies include "Dekho Rootha Na Karo", "Ye Tanhai", "Pyar Ki Saza" and "Tu Kahan"
Dev Anand and Nutan give a wonderful performance and Vijay Anand directs the film well. This is a film that is enjoyable for its music and above all Dev Anand's debonair ways which makes him look very comical but adorable.
