Sharmila Tagore was the lead actress in this film. It was he who demanded the role of Jaya opposite Satyajit Ray. In those days Satyajit Ray was looking for a new face for the film Mahanagar. Due to which Jaya got this role.
Till now Jaya had not got much recognition. In 1971, he got the film Guddi in which Dharmendra was seen with him. The film proved to be a landmark for Jaya’s career. After the success of this film, Jaya’s career started taking off. After Guddi, he worked in many great films one after the other.
