Koshish (transl. Effort) is a 1972 Indian Hindi-language romantic drama movie starring Sanjeev Kumar and Jaya Bhaduri, written and directed by Gulzar. The movie depicts a deaf and mute couple and their conflicts, pain and struggle to carve out a niche for themselves in a desensitized society. It was inspired by the 1961 Japanese film Happiness of Us Alone.[1][2] The film was remade in Tamil in 1977 as Uyarndhavargal starring Kamal Haasan and Sujatha.[3]
The film won two National Film Awards for Best Screenplay for Gulzar and Best Actor for Kumar.
