Masoom (1983)
8.4/10on IMDb
Released
A child's arrival makes the family's existing affections difficult to distribute fairly. Shabana Azmi and Naseeruddin Shah let adult discomfort remain visible beside the children's needs. The film's tenderness matters because the household cannot resolve its conflict simply by deciding to be kind.
