After a long time that I cried, felt so happy and light inside my heart; that's what tears make you feel.
This amazing movie, "Aashirwaad" was written,produced, screenplay and directed by the great Hrishikesh Mukherjee, dailogues by Gulzar saab.
Amazing music by Vasant Desai with most of the songs as folk and tragic.
Also anil ghosh was accredit as associate writer and screenplay for this movie.
One of the very few movies which made me cry so I definitely would remember this in my life.
The agony of a father, the immense love for his child, his loads of goodness despite being a Thakur is what this movie is all about.
Ashok Kumar as "Jogi Thakur", people in the village call him so as he being a Zamindar roams among the poor people and help them; His wife is an arrogant zamindarin thought good at heart; they have a little child called "Nina" and our Thakur fondly calls her "Bittu".
One day Thakur's wife gets the village on fire using Munshiji who has an eye on Baiju's young daughter. Baiju is an old fellow who fails to pay the debt which leads to this extreme step by Thakur's wife.
Thakur is fed up with his wife and leaves the village to city where he accompanies another poor fellow who earns money by showing pictures to children. Thakur helps him with this and in the process meets a little child whose name is also Nina; This little Nina dies due to high fever which makes Thakur realizes how badly he misses his child.
so Thakur returns to his village and finds that Baiju's daughter is kidnapped by Munshi and has been with him in a godown since the village was lit up with fire. In an angry state he enters the godown and kills the Munshi.
Though thakur's wife and brother-in law tries to save him in the court, the thakur accepts his crime and is sentenced to 14 yrs imprisonment. Thakur spends his life in Jail by writing poems about his little kid, he doesn't want his Nina to know about him and Nina's mamaji (thakur's brother-in law) tells her that her father became sanyasi and left everybody.
After 14 years, Nina's love who is a doctor gets the job in the same Jail where Thakur stays.
The doctor likes Thakur as well as Nina who comes to see her love; Thakur doesn't reveal his real name though he gets to know that she is his Nina.
The final day comes when thakur gets early release and on the same day Nina's marriage with the doctor is fixed; Thakur though sick gets on to reach the venue to see his daughter's marriage; the Thonga valla drops Thakur from the station and sings one of the Jogi Thakur's old songs; Baiju still lives in the village, Chandanpur as a begger and he recognizes the Jogi Thakur;
they all go to Nina's wedding as the Zamindars organizes a feast for all the beggars.
Once the thakur gives his "Aashirwaad" to his daughter he comes out and fells down.
Baiju calls everybody and tells them that he is the Jogi Thakur. People throng the place and Nina and doctor gets to know about him and they come there as well; Nina cries at seeing his father and finally Jogi Thakur dies blessing the newly weds.

The movie amazingly depicts the agony, pain of a father towards his daughter. I just couldn't control my tears for the last half an hour of the movie, it was just brilliant.
Gulzar's dailogues and lyrics are so dramatic and moving.
This is a must watch for every indian; This movie actually gave me so many ideas about what to do in my future and for the society; How to love others and forgive people and start loving them.
I only wish I watch some more movies like this before my last breath :)
