I was watching AVM's Bhabhi (1950s) on TV today and remember having seen exact same storyline recently in a newer film.

Quote:
Bhabhi storyline:
http://66.223.111.68/datacart/products/ ... uctId=4727

Adapted from a story by Prabhavathi Devi Saraswathi, "Bhabhi" is the story of Rattan Lal (Balraj Sahni) an honest and hardworking man who accepts the responsibility of bringing up his three brothers after the death of their father. Rattan Lal becomes a very successful cloth merchant and after the sudden death of his wife, remarries Shanta (Pandari Bai) who treats Rattan Lal's son Mitthu as her own child. Shanta's widowed sister moves in with the family and becomes friends with Rattan Lal's youngest brother (Jagdeep). Rattan Lal gets his brothers Ramesh and Rajan married to Tara (Shyama) and Mangala. Mangala starts tearing the family apart and even poisonÕs TaraÕs mind. Rajan gets disgusted with his wifeÕs attitude and becomes an alcoholic. Tara's wily brother (Anwar Hussain) is a wicked opportunist who takes advantage of the situation and talks Rattan Lal into dividing the property. Rattan Lal, along with his wife and son moves to the village, while Tara's brother ruins the family business. Finally, it is only at the time of Rattan Lal's death that the whole family gets reunited.

Can anyone help with the name of the newer version??
(BTW, there is another Bhabhi from the 90s starring Govinda, Juhi Chawla, but don't think it's this film. Or, may be it is??)

Thanks.
