Laila Majnu (1976)
Great movie
For the overly critical, you have to remember this is 70s Bollywood guys ...
Great storytelling, excellent and elaborate sets, fantastic music (if you like that genre and time period)
Rishi Kapoor and Ranjeeta play really good roles and I for one, absolutely loved this movie as a kid. Looking back now, of course you can poke holes and cringe at the 70s but it still was (and is) a great timeless story.
Besides, the best kind of love stories are tragedies are they not... Love found, love lost only to find each other in eternity....
Typical of the era, the music and songs do not disappoint and elaborate sequences really make this a timeless classic.
Love love love it! Lol maybe I'm biased but then again isn't that the whole point... Who looks at 70s Bollywood objectively? And if you do, I think you are kind of missing the whole point.
