I don’t know what happened to the print of this film but it looks wacky. It may have been digitized and the saturation turned up too high, way too high, but that doesn’t explain the weird blurs and sudden murky drops in sound where everything sounds like it is underwater. Whatever trauma the reels went through, it serves Sawan Ki Ghata well. It turns a pretty good Bollywood musical into a bizarre spectacle of color.
