Yet another Hrishikesh Mukerjee film that radiates sweetness and light. Rajesh Khanna stars in this atypical film where he plays a simple and loveable cook who somehow manages to sort through a family's chronic problems.

A true Bollywood hero; a single man playing many roles; a cook, a professor, a musician, a dancer, a fighter, a philosopher, and above all, one to build bridges and provide solutions. He walks into the Sharma household and transforms the way they live. Every problem is solved in a trice and all troubles are gone. But so is the family jewelery.
Once again, a light-hearted, yet meaningful classic by Hrishikesh Mukherjee with a stellar performance by Rajesh Khanna in the lead and a host of sparkling performances by the supporting cast.

This is wonderful, wonderful film with Rajesh Khanna in the role of a cook. The usual Hrishida favorites like Jaya, Asrani etc. play roles that add flavor to the movie, although Rajesh is the star. It's a great example of a film that is both believable and enjoyable. Must see, if not for anything else, then to see Rajesh Khanna washing the dishes and cooking the food : )
