An outstanding film. And the dialogue writer is one of the greatest dialogue writers of Hindi films. This is a scene that just precedes the breakdown of relations between the couple. Subir walks into the drawing room and talks to his secretary Chandru.
Subir: kyon re chandru, museebat Taali?
Chandru: kaun? income tax vaali?
Subir: Haan.
Chandru: Bhai, returns to file kar diye hain, do chaar certificate nahin mil rahe yaar.
Subir: kyon?
Chandru: vo kehte hain, ki pichhle saal ki raqam, is saal mein Daalein.
Subir: arre ye kaise ho saktaa hai, ye to ek dam safed jhooth hai!
Chandru: Bhai ye kaala baazaar hai, isme.n safed jhooth hii chaltaa hai!
भाई ये काला बाज़ार है, इसमें सफ़ेद झूठ ही चलता है!
Not much has changed in Bollywood since! :)
