‘Seeta Aur Geeta’, directed by Ramesh Sippy, is a hilarious rollercoaster of storytelling. The film boasts an ensemble cast including Hema Malini (in a dual role), Dharmendra, Sanjeev Kumar, Roopesh Kumar, Manorama, Satyen Kappu, Honey Irani, Pratima Devi, Alankar Joshi, and Master Ravi, with music composed by R.D. Burman. The story revolves around twin sisters who were separated in their childhood and are unaware of each other`s existence.
Seeta is portrayed as a kind, innocent, and reserved girl, while Geeta is a bundle of confidence. The two are complete opposites. Seeta, who was living with her biological parents, faces trouble after their untimely demise. She starts living with her uncle and aunt, who subject her to mistreatment for her property and make her do all the household work. On the other hand, Geeta is a free spirit who lives in a village and earns money by performing various street-side shows.
