Aw thank you,

Einthusan would your best bet, they don’t have a lot of old movies but they are slowly uploading some and they all have subtitles.

Other than that youtube sometimes have subs. I can’t think of any other sites unfortunately.

It is a fashion these days to say that love is merely a romantic attraction between men and women.

Sanjeev Kumar and Jaya Bhaduri in Gulzar’s Koshish (1972)

I got the inspiration to make “Koshish” from another Japanese film “Happiness of Us Alone”, which was shown here in India during the First International Film Festival in 1952. The subject was very impressive, but it had a message that the society must create a separate world of disabled. I never believed that and decided that I must, at some stage, make a film on inclusion - aur phir ussi ka nateeja tha ki ek film aayi thi Koshish. Ek film zindagi badal sakti hai, nazariya badal sakti hai, aur Koshish ne mera nazariya badal diya… We know these kids, par kuch ajeeb sa hai - hum unki taraf dekhte nahin, jaise aap saara din ghumte hain par aasman ko nahin dekhte. Aasman iss dharti par sabse khoobsurat manzar deta hai. Ye bachche bhi humara aasman hain, inhe bhuliye mat, inhe dekhte rahiye.“

Rekha // Silsila (1981)

[dildaar]

Aap ka armaan, aap ka naam, mera fasaana aur nahin. Inn jhukti palkon ke siva, mera thikaana aur nahin. Jachta hi nahin, aankhon mein koi. Dil tumko hi chahe toh kya kijiye. O mere dil ke chain, chain aaye mere dil ko dua kijiye.

Silsila is a story, thwarted by societys demands, which reappear as adultery but can it survive in the face of society?
