Nagabharana remade the movie in Hindi with Om Puri titled Bin Bulaye Mehmaan (1981), but the film was incomplete.
[1] In the mid-1980s, Shaam (Anant Nag) and Revati (Smita Patil) live in a Vatara (housing complex) with their two little girls and a host of other families.
There is a lot of affection and love in this family that lives under the prying nose of old, perverted and goofy men who are married to nosy, loud and annoying women.
Fear and tension strikes the innocent couple whose main problem up until now was to get their daughters to wear shoes for school.
They spend an entire night wondering what to do with their unwelcome guest that includes hiding him under their own bed and getting rid of his wallet.
