I was watching Hamari Adhuri Kahaani, but that turned out to be pretty insufferable, so I found myself some Mithun to cleanse my palate. Plus, Padmini Kolhapure! The mom from PPNH! I seem to have gotten very lazy about finding subtitled versions of movies, because apparently I couldn’t be bothered to fork over $10 and wait for Amazon Prime shipping, so I watched it on youtube. The plot is straightforward and the story is sweet.
The beginning is pretty hilarious. Preeti (Padmini) drunkenly crashes her car into a lightpost and starts getting hassled by the sort of group of jackasses that always show up when a heroine is doing something improper (as if that excuses it). And like always happens, the hero shows up to leap through the air and kick everybody in the face at the same time. Our hero Ajay (Mithun Chakraborty) tries to help Preeti, who keeps trying to emphasize what a shareef ladki she is. Shareef though she may be, she is also very drunk, so Ajay hauls her home to let her sleep it off.
This is very considerate of him, and in return she accidentally sets his bedroom on fire.
