But in those days there was no leather bound script. There are minimum instructions in it and the scene changed several times. So, I saw the film at least 40–50 times."Шаблон:Sfn

The book was published in 2014 by Om Books International, and critics were appreciative of it.Шаблон:Citation needed In an anonymous review in the entertainment portal Bollywood Hungama, "... it must be added that this Muslim social from 1960 could well interest a very select set of readers for whom the book would strictly serve academic purposes. For such students of Indian cinema, the book could well turn out to be an educational pick."Шаблон:Sfn Siddhi Pathak from The Indian Express wrote, "The book resonates the charisma and creativity of the legend, Guru Dutt. It successfully makes you relive the film on paper. For any film-amigo or cinema enthusiast, it's an absolute insightful delight."Шаблон:Sfn Vivek Tejuja of News18 described the book as a "delight to read", adding, "The commentary and extended analysis are a treat in this book to watch out for."Шаблон:Sfn
