"Angoor" was one of the directorial ventures of Gulzar, the great poet, lyricist, and a story teller; and most of his successful films have been based on foreign stories like Parichay, Mere Apne, and Koshish. In this film, he Indianizes the Shakespeare tale "Comedy of Errors." In this entirely comic film we have a master and a maid who both have their identical twins. When the both sets of master and maid gets mixed up in the same town, situations of confusions arise resulting some of the rib tickling moments. And the comedy gets carried out perfectly by the duo of Sanjeev Kumar and Deven Verma. The film is commendable for its sincere effort to stick to the main theme and emerges as a perfect comedy film which Indian film makers rarely dare to make. Despite some jaded characters, the film becomes engaging and leaves you with a good laugh by the end.
