It's easily the most prolific film ever made in that era. The film was made on a grand scale, superb music, great storytelling and was very detailed.

The Movies I Loved Growing Up
The director picks his five flicks...
Guide: It's easily the most prolific film ever made in that era. The film was made on a grand scale, superb music, great storytelling and was very detailed. I remember watching it first on Doordarshan when I think I was about 10 years old. I'll always remember it as a love story with grey shades

Teesri Manzil: Watched this one on VHS when I was 12, I think. Another great flick by Vijay Anand (Anand directed Guide as well). I think he was easily the most underrated filmmakers our industry was produced.
Teesri Manzilu00a0 had the best combinations for a successful film of that time: a rivetting whodunit and unbelievable music and background score. It was a fantastic love story that had a great tempo going for it. It's a film I love watching even today.

Pinjra: What an outstanding film this was! I really loved the reflection of society that it presented us with. It was a very bold film.
Consider this: A school teacher falls in love with a lavani dancer.Superb film, superb music. Outstanding direction by V Shantaram.This is one of the films that revolutionised cinema. And the climax... it is to die for! Caught this one on Doordarshan.
