Yeh Rastey Hain Pyar Ke

Yeh Rastey Hain Pyar Ke (lit. 'These are the paths of love') is a 1963 Hindi crime drama film starring Sunil Dutt and Leela Naidu in the lead roles. This film was Sunil Dutt's debut production, directed by R.K. Nayyar, with music composed by Ravi. Dutt's favourite writer Aghajani Kashmiri scripted Yeh Rastey.. which is based on the sensational K.M. Nanavati adultery and murder case in Mumbai. The film was said to be a thinly-disguised version of the famous Nanavati case where an upright naval captain, Capt. Nanavati, shot dead the lover of his wife. The film was said to be ahead of its times and too bold, did moderately well at the box office.

The 1973 movie Achanak is also based on the same case. The Akshay Kumar-starrer 2016 movie Rustom is based on the same case as well.
