Then and now: Pati Patni Aur Woh

The 1978 Bollywood film deals with the issues of extra-marital affairs comically. In the film, Ranjeet Chhadha played by Sanjeev Kumar and Sharda Chhadha Vidya Sinha meet, fall in love and get married. Eventually, Ranjeet receives a promotion at his workplace, which means a higher salary and a temptation in the form of Nirmala Deshpande played by Ranjeeta Kaur. Ranjeet lies to Nirmala that Sharda is on her deathbed to gain her sympathy, and they eventually come closer. Ranjeet keeps using this strategy to take his plans further ahead. While everything is going according to the plans, Sharda starts getting suspicious. When Ranjeet gets busted in front of both the women, all hell breaks loose.

Since the 2019 film is based on the one released earlier, the story and the characters will run down on similar lines. We can expect the characteristics of Ranjeet Chhadha and Abhinav/Chintu Tyagi to be pretty much the same. Since the film is a remake, one can assume that Kartik Aaryan’s character from the 2019 Pati Patni Aur Woh, would be quite similar to Ranjeet Chhadha from the 1978 Pati Patni Aur Woh. The only probable difference between the characters would be in the way the actor portrays it, and also some bits of due to the difference in the directorial style of B. R. Chopra and Mudassar Aziz.
