Dhoti clad Amol Palekar in a disco
They portrayed the quintessential middle-class couple in some very popular 70s films such as 'Chit Chor' and 'Gharaonda'.
Amol Palekar as the bumbling everyman, often struggling just to make his presence felt, and Zarina Wahab, the girl next door who bowled him over with her natural charm and beauty.
