Bhala hai bura hai jaisa bhi hai
Mera pati mera devta hai
^ This doormat anthem is the introduction to this garbage and now you might know how problematic the film is. đ
Kishan's (Rishi Kapoor) domineering father forces him to marry his friend's daughter...a village girl who's both unattractive and unrefined with crass mannerisms and a hilarious hairstyle which resembles a dog's tail. A depressed Kishan then goes to the city and falls for an independent city girl, Radha. He hides his past from her and they marry. Somehow his 1st wife lands up in the same house where Kishan lives with his 2nd wife and complications arise. đ€Ș
2nd wife then takes it upon herself to refine both looks and mannerisms of the 1st wife out of sympathy and Kishan starts feeling attracted and even guilty as his first wife makes a significant progress in both departments. The cringefest ends with the 2nd wife committing suicide after getting to know the truth and blames herself for coming between her husband and his 1st wife. In a true mahaan devi style, she dies only after eliciting a promise from Kishan that he'd take care of her didi turned sautan saheli blah blah. đ
You know what, I know which movie you're talking about cuz that hairstyle is unforgettable đ€Ł I didn't catch the beginning or the ending, just the parts in the middle where she's more of a comic character.
