Basu's Chhoti Si Baat is also a really good film.
As for Hrishikesh Mukherjee and Gulzar being in the Bimal Roy school of filmmaking, those two didn't quite master the visual beauty of Bimal Roy's films. But that is excusable if the content of the films is intelligent and engrossing enough, which it certainly was.
True...but that is perhaps attributed to the fact that their individual strengths were in different areas.....Mukherjee was an editor first and most certainly his movies are all tautly put together....Gulzar ofcourse was a writer, which is in evidence all over his movies....lyrics, dialogue, story....and Bimal-da was needless to say a cinematographer, which explains the visual beauty of his compositions.....but they were all incredible story tellers which is what the medium of cinema ultimately remains.....a story telling medium through use of various components which all aid but can never take the place of story telling...period.
