Cinema can contribute to a better society

Many fans and well-wishers of Hindi cinema have been concerned by the drought - almost a famine - of really good films in recent times. When was the last great film - one which would have an assured place in any listing of all-time great Hindi films - released? This may be a good time to remember some of the best film-makers who contributed outstanding films with social relevance. Bimal Roy was a highly talented film-maker who contributed some of the best films of this genre, including Do Bigha Zamin, Bandini and Sujata.
