Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSunil Dutt was offered the film but refused it as he knew Raaj Kumar had best role. The makers insisted Sunil take the role. Sunil had never played the role of a playboy. As a favor to B.R. Chopra,Dutt took the film. As he predicted, Raaj Kumar was the one who walked away with all the credit for the film being a hit.
- GoofsRavi violates courtroom procedures and rules of evidence in numerous ways, including badgering witnesses, presenting evidence through means other than testimony, arguing directly to the bench rather than to the jury, etc.

Featured review
Stylish, if typical, 60s multistarrer with great music
The story of Waqt is pretty standard: an earthquake separates the members of a wealthy family with three sons, who are brought up as a result in separate and quite different circumstances. Eventually, of course, the family is reunited, but not before variuous twists and turns culminating in the three brothers appearing in court in connection with the trial for murder of one brother, with the other brothers being the defence counsel and a witness for the prosecution, respectively. Pretty standard stuff - but stylishly presented and with strong performances,particularly by Sadhan as the love interest of one of the brothers, and Sunil Dutt as the lawyer brother. Nice stuff, great music, lavish sets, and a pretty cool courtroom denouement!
