What happens
Koshish (transl. Effort) is a 1972 Indian Hindi-language romantic drama movie starring Sanjeev Kumar and Jaya Bhaduri, written and directed by Gulzar. The film depicts a deaf and mute couple and their conflicts, pain and struggle to carve out a niche for themselves in a desensitized society. It was inspired by the 1961 Japanese film Happiness of Us Alone. The film was remade in Tamil in 1977 as Uyarndhavargal starring Kamal Haasan and Sujatha. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
