Awaara is considered a milestone in the history of Bollywood. In the film, Kapoor's poor " little tramp" character references Charlie Chaplin and was further developed in other Kapoor films such as Shree 420. The plot centers on the intertwining lives of a poor thief Raj (played by Raj Kapoor), the privileged Rita (played by Nargis), and Judge Raghunath (played by Prithviraj Kapoor) who is unaware that Raj is his son. The film expresses socialist themes, and blends social and reformist themes with the crime, romantic comedy and musical melodrama genres.
The film's music was composed by Shankar Jaikishan. Other members of the Kapoor family make an appearance, including Raj's youngest real-life brother Shashi Kapoor, who plays the younger version of his character, and Prithiviraj's father Dewan Basheshwarnath Kapoor, playing a cameo role in his only film appearance. It stars Raj Kapoor along with his real-life father Prithviraj Kapoor, as well as Nargis, Leela Chitnis and K. Awaara, also written Awāra and known overseas as The Vagabond, is a 1951 Indian crime drama film, produced and directed by Raj Kapoor, and written by Khwaja Ahmad Abbas.
