Curry Western with lots of bare feet

Kaala Sona (1975) is one of several popular curry Westerns made in India at that time. It features extended barefoot scenes of Farida Jalal running around the countryside. Her sister in the movie, Parveen Babi, finally gets barefoot during a dance with Farida and others that features lyrics about anklets. Parveen also has a barefoot dance of her own later where bandits are high and she is trying to get them confused. Later the prolific actress known as just Helen is barefoot during a big fight scene with the bandits. It is a quite good film with lots of action, not overly musical, much in the way of Sholay, a truly great Indian film. I saw Kaala Sona on Netflix.
