Plot

Desperate to earn money to support his extended family, Mohan becomes entangled in a web of deceit when he tells a lie in order to obtain a secretarial job in the city with the wealthy Mr. Rai. He says he isn't married, but he is. Mr. Rai has a daughter with a heart condition. In the beginning of the film, she is confined to a wheelchair, but Mohan has more than a mild therapeutic effect on her. She is soon up and running - running after him. Meanwhile, back in the village, the money he has been sending home is being filched by his greedy sister. Soon, mother, wife and a flock of children come looking for him and Mohan finds himself leading a double life in an increasingly desperate effort to avoid all parties learning the truth.

Soundtrack

The soundtrack for this album was composed by the legendary music composer duo Laxmikant–Pyarelal, and won them Filmfare award for best music director in 1970. All songs written by Anand Bakshi. The song "Aane se Uske Aaye Bahar" and "Ek Banjara Gaye" sung by Mohammed Rafi became an evergreen song of the Indian music history but the winner song of Lata Mangeshkar, "Aap Mujhe Achhe Lagne Lage" faded unnoticeable.
