Plot Summary

Archana, an educated daughter of retired principal loves Professor Sukhesh. This love born out of intellectual impact is supported by the fond hopes of her father that leads to matrimonial alliance. Archana's mother is of a different class with materialistic notions of life and she too unwillingly gives her consent to the marriage. Seeds of marital love have not yet flowered into sweet joys of wedlock when whims and ego's of Archana and Sukhesh start clashing. Though a dutiful loving wife of a sweet husband, Archana is very much the daughter of her mother, who with all good intentions intervenes in the day to day life of the couple. Understanding leads to misunderstandings and the lovers start misinterpreting each other's sentiments. This ultimately leads to break in marriage - hence the ultimate- eventual separation. Kora Kagaz answers the struggle of intellectual lovers who find it difficult to enjoy marital bliss. The film is a lesson in both love and marriage. Written by Everest Entertainment

Trivia Jaya Bhaduri was signed as the heroine. Her role was as strong as that of the hero. The movie needed a middle aged actor to play the estranged husband. None of the top heroes of the time who were in that age bracket (Sunil Dutt, Rajendra Kumar, Dev Anand) would shed their image and act in the movie The newer entrants to middle road cinema (Vijay Arora, Romesh Sharma, Anil Dhawan) were considered too young to depict the maturity required of the role. That is when director Vijay Anand was signed. The only other alternative was Sanjeev Kumar but he was extremely busy with Mausam, Sholay and a host of other movies at the time. The movie was a hit and Vijay Anand followed it up with another heroine-dominated movie Main Tulsi tere aangan ki which also went on to become a hit. See more »
