In Hindi cinema, the romantic high point of a film often takes place during the rains -– whether it is the lead pair dancing during a song or a high-voltage passion-filled scene.
In this, Mehboob Khan’s Dilip Kumar-Madhubala-Nimmi-starrer, the story turns around an incident that takes place between Dilip Kumar and Nimmi one stormy night.
Village belle Nimmi is in love with educated Dilip Kumar and shuns her rustic admirer Jayant. When the latter chases her through the rain-splashed woods, she seeks refuge in Dilip’s house. The beast within him is unleashed at the sight of a drenched Nimmi. The result: Pregnancy for Nimmi and a shot at martyrdom for Dilip’s fiancée (Madhubala).
