The film was directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee and co-written with Gulzar. Popularly known as Hrishi-da, he is credited to have, “carved a middle path between the extravagance of mainstream cinema and the stark realism of art cinema”.
The film was loosely inspired from Akira Kurosawa’s film, Ikiru (1952).
