Satyajit Ray's only Hindi movie.
Sanjeev Kumar stated that the film flopped due to the masses not understanding the film. The pace was quite slow and scenes lengthy. The scene between Tom Alter and Richard Attenbourogh were too stretched. The English dialogue just added up to its failure.
First Indian movie featuring Sir Richard Attenborough.
Satyajit Ray made only 2 movies in Hindi, one was Shatranj ke Khiladi and the other one is Sadgati.
Based on Premchand's story of same name.
"Mir Roshan Ali: Jinse apni biwi-yan nahin sambhli woh angreaz fauz se kya ladenge. Translation : Those whom couldn't even care for their wives, would not be able to fight the British army."
