Do Raaste
Do Raaste (translation: Two Paths) is a 1969 Indian Hindi film directed by Raj Khosla. The story is based on the trials and tribulations of a lower-middle-class family. It places emphasis on respect for elders, the paramount status of the mother, the sanctity of the joint family of her three sons, and the supremacy of relations that are stronger than ties of blood.
Balraj Sahni and Kamini Kaushal play the eldest son and his wife. Prem Chopra plays the wayward son with Bindu as his wife who creates disputes. Whereas Rajesh Khanna plays flamboyant son and Mumtaz as his love interest. Despite her small role but with the aid of two chartbuster songs, Do Raaste made Mumtaz a household name.

Overseas in the United Kingdom, the film was released in 1970. It became the first Indian film to gross £100,000 in the UK, equivalent to ₹900,000 (US$118,940.64). Its UK box office record was broken a year later by Purab Aur Paschim, which released in the UK in 1971.
