Sonu asks him to make her a dus tola necklace to induce her father to give her hand in marriage to Shankar.

During the night Shankar goes to Sonu's house and challenges her to tell everyone that he gave her the necklace in order to declare her love for him.

The next day, Shankar and his friends go to the house of Daya & Lakshmi but Sonu comes and says she doesn't know about any necklace except the one that her father gave her.

In a quiet peaceful field Shankar and his friends are talking about the dus tola necklace when Ravi comes with townspeople and a fight begins.

The next time Shankar sees Geeta standing at a bus stop he pauses for her, realising that she is in fact the real gold.

The Times of India stated that "The problem with Dus Tola is its archaic story which simply doesn't connect with the new age audience.

Of course, there have been so many small town stories that have managed to find applause even today: Udaan, Manorama Six Feet Under, Well Done Abba.

"[3] Komal Nahta stated that "Dus Tola is an entertaining fare, no doubt, but it won't work at the box-office because it is more like a TV serial or a stage-play and less like a film.
