Akash Kusum (Bengali: আকাশ কুসুম; "Up in the Clouds") is a 1965 Bengali film directed by noted Indian parallel film director Mrinal Sen. The film was loosely remade in Hindi as Manzil (1979).
It is the story of the longings of a middle-class executive to rise in stature and social acceptability. The young man trying to find a place in the corporate world innocently bluffs a young girl he chances upon. The bluff becomes disastrous for him, and for their relationship.
