Sounds interesting. Available on DVD/VCD?

You know! I do not know!! it took me a long time to figure out what film it was! no one could recognize from description.

I do not remember if I saw on Tele or on VHS!?

But i was impressed with hema malini, making such an unorthodox, unconventional film..I did like it though!

so Hema directed her niece in this film..

sanjay or some one from India or Rana sahab, the VHS guru might help us to nail it down!

these kinda films are made only once in blue moon and go un noticed
