I saw this film many years ago and have seen it several times later.Evidently it is dated but Dilip Kumar's acting is superb conveying starkly the traumatic effect of alcoholism.The plot is rather weak but overall the message is clear.It is doubtful whether Hindus are buried as when the drunk and' dead 'Shankar mentions the way to the cemetery!The music is enchanting especially the songs of Talat Mahmood.Nimmi is pure gold here.Kaniyalal and Lalita Pawar lend solid support.With a little more directness Daag could have become a exemplary movie.A reflection of its time but also a milestone for Nimmi and Dilip.An understanding of the era is essential for the enjoyment of this classic because the dialog is brilliant.Not for the impatient but a must for all Dilip Kumar addicts.
