Mischievous botany professor Parimal Tripathi (Dharmendra) plays a little trick on his brother-in-law Raghav (Om Prakash). Jealous of the high esteem in which his own wife, Sulekha (Amitabh Bachchan), holds the other man, Parimal decides to impersonate Raghav's new driver. Laying the groundwork for a series of hilarious misunderstandings, the disguised professor throws doubt on his wife's fidelity and gets his best buddy, Sukumar (Sharmila Tagore), to help out by impersonating Parimal.

Hrishi da's cinema brims with wit, charm and an inherent decency. Chupke Chupke is no exception. There is a real sense of fun here, much of it provided by Dharmendra who is in top form. Go to Full Review

Fifty T @RT01421419 6 days ago Pure Hindi, Pure Gold: Warm, Witty & Completely Irresistible Chupke Chupke you watch countless times and it never gets old. There is something about this film that just warms you from the inside - no noise, no excess, just a perfectly crafted soft comedy that wraps around you like a comfortable blanket. The real secret weapon? Gulzar's dialogues. The Hindi purity debate between Dharmendra's Pyare Mohan Ilahabadi and Om Prakash's pompous Jijaji is some of the wittiest, most linguistically playful writing ever put on a Hindi film screen. And then there is Dharmendra. Here is a man who, in the very same year, was blowing things up and firing guns in Sholay. In Chupke Chupke he is soft, bumbling, mischievous and utterly hilarious. Same goes for Amitabh Bachchan, equally explosive in Sholay and Deewar that year, yet here completely at ease in a gentle comic role. 8.5/10: Hrishikesh Mukherjee just knew how to tell a human story without wasting a single frame. A timeless gem. See more
