What happens

Naina is a 1973 Bollywood film directed by Kanak Mishra. The song "Hone Lagi Hai Raat Jawan", sung by Asha Bhosle, earned her the 5th Filmfare award. The music was composed by Shankar-Jaikishan. The movie has similarities with Daphne du Maurier's 1938 novel Rebecca and features Shashi Kapoor in a rare negative role as a high-born aristocrat. Moushumi Chatterjee plays his second wife, who is constantly being compared with his first (Rajshree). (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
