Kabhi Kabhie, 1976

When in the mood for love, Kabhi Kabhie is a treat for all seasons.

Yet another gem from Yash Chopra's dazzling oeuvre, it has the exquisite ability to transport its viewer into the picturesque landscapes of Sahir Ludhianvi's enchanting poetry, lovingly draped in Khayyam's smooth melodies.

It has the sensitivity and heart to recognise the anguish of an unrequited affair as well as the rush of first love. Observe the delicacy in the exchange of dialogues and pleasantries, how it brims with cleverly interspersed read-in-between-the-lines.

Beyond its obvious prettiness and lilting rhyme, Kabhi Kabhie has a captivating, intelligent cast, which shows inspiring connection with its character at every stage.

Be it in Bachchan's brooding resentment, Shashi Kapoor's playful lack of reserve, Raakhee restrained elegance, Waheeda Rehman's quiet unfulfilment or Rishi Kapoor and Neetu Singh's vibrant impulsiveness.
