| 16 | Slapstick comedy by the same director-star |
| 17 | team responsible for Raja Babu (1994). |
| 18 | Govinda plays Raju, a coolie who falls for the |
| 19 | rich Malti (K. Kapoor). Shadiram Gharjode |
| 20 | (Amrapurkar), a marriage fixer, sees this as an |
| 21 | opportunity to take revenge on Malti’s father |
| 22 | Hoshiyar Singh (Khan). Raju masquerades as |
| 23 | Kunwar Mahendra Pratap, the son of a |
| 24 | Bombay-based millionaire (Kharbanda), and |
| 25 | marries Malti under false pretences. The rest of |
| 26 | the film interweaves Raju’s desperate efforts to |
| 27 | maintain the masquerade, which includes |
| 28 | having to invent a twin brother, with the |
| 29 | millionaire’s evil son’s efforts to kill his father. |
| 30 | In the end, the millionaire, saved in hospital by |
| 31 | Raju (disguised as a woman), disowns his son |
| 32 | and makes Raju his heir. Numerous songs and |
| 33 | a large number of stock characters of the by |
| 34 | now familiar Dhawan-Govinda genre include |
| 35 | comedians Shakti Kapoor as Malti’s Uncle who |
| 36 | speaks with a lisp and Tiku Talsania as the cop |
| 37 | who unravels the whole mystery. |
