"The movie gave [actress] Zeenat Aman a platform that transformed her into a star overnight as she swung to Asha Bhosle's iconic 'Dum Maro Dum,' the twang of the guitar, air filled with smoke and a pretty lass puffing away (‘pot’ as it was referred to) came to signify the hippie culture that Dev Saab so creatively wanted to expose. And he did it in style with a movie that became a super hit."
