Name of classic Bollywood movie

I am trying to find out the name of the movie. It aired on Turner classic movies a while ago. It is a bout a family in India who’s husband loses his job from the bank. The wife then has to find a job to support the family which includes her in-laws. She finds a job selling sewing machines door to door and is really good at it. If anyone can tell me the name of the movie that would be awesome!!! I saw it when it was on TCM and it was awesome

Was it a new or old movie and do u know which actors?

Sounds like Mahanagar (Bengali) by Ray, released in 1963
