Why would any sane couple part ways because of one silly rift which happens in every possible and normal family? How come they never meet again for so many years if they never officially divorced in the first place? And there's more. Leave the cheesy dialogues, the unimpressive song numbers, the waste of good actors in poor supporting roles, and the unnecessary subplots, aside, but then the concept itself is very unconvincing.
The film actually looks promising in the initial portions, with Ashok Kumar's nice character bringing some welcome humour, but then it goes rapidly downhill. It is extremely exaggerated in execution and, while it has some moments, it is mostly a tedious movie experience. Some of them, like Ek Hi Bhool, worked, but Judaai does not.
This film is what most Rekha-Jeetendra movies of those times were all about - a good couple who separate for some unbelievably silly reasons only to meet after years. Rama Rao's Judaai is a typical Hindi melodrama which is only elevated, to an extent, by Rekha's sincere performance.
