Chhoti Si Baat’s Amol Palekar was the shy, tongue-tied secret admirer of Vidya Sinha, who had to undergo a rigorous training in love by Colonel Julius Nagendranath Wilfred Singh of Khandala (played delightfully by Ashok Kumar) to be able to woo her convincingly

Chhoti Si Baat looked at how romance blossoms in the midst of the hurly-burly of city life, in between the daily chores and work responsibilities.

This picture is part of the film memorabilia on display at the exhibition on Basu Chatterji’s films titled ‘Basu Chatterji, A Manzil of Memories’, organised by Sensorium and Weavers Studio Centre for the Arts in Kolkata.
