Criticism
Thus equipped with immortal music, with three Filmfare Awards in the pocket ( best film, Tagore, Kumar ) and an overwhelming grossing in a poke " Aradhana " has secured a place in the Bollywood history. A classic that even today weep tears and still can learn a lot from the 08/15-Romanzen. (of molodezhnaja.ch )
