  A rollicking slapstick musical comedy directed by Jyoti Swaroop in which the innocent Bhola (Sunil Dutt) gives up his commitment to celibacy when he falls for a sexy neighbour Bindu (Saira Banu). His rivals in love are his own uncle (Om Prakash) and Bindu's traditionalist Carnatic music teacher (Mehmood). He however wins his girl with the assistance of the crooked drama-troupe guru (Kishore Kumar) when he serenades her using the guru for a musical playback. R D Burman's great soundtrack climaxes in the high point of the film in a zany take-off on the Jugalbandi (musical contest) between the guru and the Carnatic musician `Ek Chatur Naar Karke Singaar' sung by Manna De and Kishore Kumar. The original Bengali story had previously been filmed by Sudhir Mukherjee Pasher Bari in 1952 in Telugu by C Pullaiah Pakkinti Ammayi in 1953 and in Tamil - Raghavaiah's Adutha Veetu Penn in 1960.
