    As pleasant as it gets in just Baaton - Baaton Mey

    Basu Chatterji narrates this story in a most simplistic manner capturing the day to day life of working class India ( mainly the deep rooted Indo- Catholic culture) of 1979 set in Bandra Bombay ( Mumbai )

    Tina Munim stands out as Nancy along with Tony played brilliantly by the then urban india star Amol Palekar.

    David Abraham as Nancy"s uncle Tom,Leela Mishra ,the Daadi, Pearl Padamse as Rosie (Nancy"s mom) and Ranjit Chowdhary as Sabhi( Nancy"s younger brother ) together creates an absorbing family drama which feels like Band-Stand's pleasant breeze.

    Rajesh Roshan gives a super hit album with noted performances by Amit & Kishore Kumar.

    Plot :

    Tony falls for Nancy while travelling to work in Bombay Local train. The movie takes us on a journey depicting the relationship between various characters revolving around Nancy and Tony.
