Dina Pathak climbing through the kitchen window is one of the most hilarious scenes. 😆
Misti, I just watched Golmal couple of days ago. And I found it as hilarious as I have found it previous times. You are right that Utpal Dutt was the main reason for its success. He is one of the best who had a great comic timing. And Dina Pathak climbing through the kitchen window was a hoot.
Have you seen that movie of his (cannot recall the name) with Amol Palekar, Swaroop Sampat, Shatrughan Sinha where he was this extremely superstitious guy. That was another hilarious movie.
Talking about old movies, yesterday I watched part of Amitabh/Jaya movie "Milli". And Amitabh's role reminded me of Shlok. There too he was a dark character because of his parents and his past and Jaya's character of Milli was a vivacious one. I was just thinking that it is a pity that they ruined Shlok so much in EBP. In that movie, Milli changes him but the change was done so beautifully and with so much sensitivity without changing his original characterization. Wish CVs of EBP had copied from that movie. If they can copy so much from other shows, why not do it from a good movie.
