An ordinary family drama brought to life by Jaya Bhaduri

7/10

"Kora Kagaz is overall a realistic, simple and enjoyable family drama. The story itself, however, though handled with understanding and honesty, is nothing extraordinary and it has its share of unrestrained emotions. It is about a young married couple. She comes from a rich family, and he is a simple professor who lives a poor lifestyle with his aunt. She enters his house and the problems begin mainly because of her mother, who was never really happy with this marriage. The film stars Jaya Bhaduri in a fantastic author-backed role.

💡 Did You Know?

Jaya Bhaduri was signed as the heroine. Her role was as strong as that of the hero. The movie needed a middle aged actor to play the estranged husband. None of the top heroes of the time who were in that age bracket (Sunil Dutt, Rajendra Kumar, Dev Anand) would shed their image and act in the movie The newer entrants to middle road cinema (Vijay Arora, Romesh Sharma, Anil Dhawan) were considered too young to depict the maturity required of the role. That is when director Vijay Anand was signed. The only other alternative was Sanjeev Kumar but he was extremely busy with Mausam, Sholay and a host of other movies at the time. The movie was a hit and Vijay Anand followed it up with another heroine-dominated movie Main Tulsi tere aangan ki which also went on to become a hit.
