Ek Duuje Ke Liye

Director: K. Balachander
Starring: Kamal Hassan, Rati Agnihotri, Shobha Khote , Madhavi
Music Director: Laxmikant Pyarelal

This modern Romeo and Juliet is the tragic story of Vaasu, a South Indian and Sapna, a North Indian who fall in love but are kept apart by the huge abyss of the prejudices of caste and language that their parents seem to hold more dear than the happiness of their children. Ultimately the abyss swallows them and they commit suicide.

Ek Duuje Ke Liye is director K. Balachanders Hindi remake of his own super hit Telugu film "Maro Charithra". This film is a watershed of sorts because it marked the debut into Hindi films of 4 stars of the South Indian film industry, K. Balachander, Kamal Hassan, Rati Agnihotri and S.P. Balasubramaniam. The film itself was a huge success, becoming the biggest grosser of 1981. But Rati Agnihotri and S.P. Balasubramaniam were the only two benefeciaries, both becoming top stars in their field, SP remaining so even today. Apart from Kamal Hassan and Rati Agnihotris performances and a memorable cameo by Madhavi. The music of the film, scored by Laxmikant-Pyarelal was very successful, remaining till today, especially "Tere Mere Beech Mein", "Hum Bane Tum Bane" and the cutely comical love duet, "Mere Jeevan Saathi".
