amzad khan - an underrated actor

Amzad Khan's range and variety was truly awesome. Mesmerizing actor who was hugely underrated. Great to hear about him.

"Manik" means diamond.....can't think of anyone else other than Ray having a name which so aptly describes the stature of the person

I thought it was Sulakshana Pandit with whom Sanjeev Kumar acted in many movies.

Sanjeev wanted to marry Hema.

Sulakshana wanted to marry Sanjeev.

None materialized and both of them remained bachelors.

Amjad Khan powerhouse of talent

I sincerely believe Amjad Khan was an enigmatic actor...he could do negative, comic & emotional roles with such a ease.

He's the best role mode to all who just don't want to become lead actor.

An excellent movie with extremely talented starcast, and Sanjeev Kumar as an actor has always been a treat to watch on screen. Truly a versatile.

I loved that chess being played with vegetables and argument between Sanjeev or Mirza on characters of vegetables... excellent way.. only Satyajit Ray can portray.
