Thought, this thread suits this post:
The other day I was watching a Hollywood film "Move Over Darling" on TV. I found it interesting and thought that this type of plot and presentation should work fine for a Bollywoodish film. Plus, add a few songs and romance and it could be a nice romance/ comedy film.
The plot is where a man marries a 2nd girl after his first wife was gone missing, in a sea disaster, for five yrs. On the wedding day his first wife comes back after a miraculous rescue from a deserted island where she was marooned with another man. There are comic situations at the start of the film where the judge is acting like a comic and later again declaring the lost woman dead and alive a number of times and declaring the husband guilty of polygamy, legally married to --, flip flopping a number of times, depending whether the first wife is declared legally dead or alive, which wife declared legally married or not. There also are comic situations/ complications when the other man from the marooned island interferes.
There was a comedy film with Salman or Govinda or Akshay where hero is constantly juggling with two wives (anyone recall name of this film ??) but don’t think rest of the plot had any similarity.
Any idea if Move Over Darling was copied in Bollywood ??
Its a copy of an old hollywood feature starring either Glen Ford or Cary Grant. Can't remember the name...

No idea if it was copied but I wouldn't be surprised. It sounds like the perfect film for bollywood to copy. A film I recall where the hero is constantly juggling with two wives is Gharwali Baharwali with Anil Kapoor.
From what you said, I think I might have seen move over darling. Is it an old film?
Found out, which Bollywood film I was thinking of. It's

Naive villager Shyamsunder, who sings, comes to Bombay to try his luck with Bollywood and wealth. He ends up on the streets, playing for small alms. He meets with another musician, Muthu Swami, and both attempt to meet the owner of Tips Cassettes, Mr. Khurana, for an audition, in vain though. Then one day, Shyamsunder meets beautiful Divya, the only daughter of Mr. Khurana, and both fall in love with each other. Divya would like to marry Shyamsunder, and also further his career. What she does not know is that Shyamsunder loves another woman from his village by the name of Pooja, who he has promised to marry. Pooja arrives in the city, and with Divya already present there, Shyamsunder and Muthu Swami invent a look-alike of Shyamsunder, with hilarious results.

Five years to the day after his wife Ellen disappeared in the sea after a plane crash, lawyer husband Nicholas has her declared legally dead, remarries and sets off to Monterey with new wife Bianca. The same morning, Ellen arrives home after being rescued by the Navy from a desert island and follows to try and prevent the honeymoon developing further. Nick, still in love with Ellen, is delighted to see her but finds he still can't break the news to Bianca, while Ellen equally hasn't got round to telling the children she is their mother. Could get complicated.
