[edit] Synopsis
This film tells the story of a widow Sheetal (Hema Malini) who is left devastated after the death of her husband Raj (Rajesh Khanna). She is left with one child to look after and teaches in a school and one of her students is a daughter of the widower Ravi (Shammi Kapoor). The children become instrumental in getting the single parents to meet and fall in love.
Andaz was one of the last movies for which the Great Music Directors Duo, Shankar- Jaikishan composed music together. Jaikishan died of cirrhosis of the liver on September 12, 1971 at the young age of 42. Co-incidentally, one of the most popular songs from this film- Zindagi Ik Safar Hai Suhana, Yahaan Kal Kya Ho, Kisne Jaana" (Life is a beautiful journey, One never knows what's going to happen tomorrow) turned out to be the last song that Jaikishan recorded before his untimely death.
