Plot

In the heart of a quaint village, the lives of two brothers, Kishan (Amol Palekar) and Shambhu (Rajesh Khanna), unspool amidst familial love and societal norms. Kishan, bound in matrimony to Shanti (Raakhee), navigates the heartache of childlessness, while Shambhu's heart stirs with newfound affection for Tulsi (Rekha), a young woman who, along with her blind mother, finds solace in their community. However, their seemingly tranquil existence is shattered as Tulsi's cousin, Jaggan (Prem Chopra), driven by his disdain for the blossoming bond between Shambhu and Tulsi, weaves a sinister web of deception. His malicious rumors about an illicit affair between Shambhu and Shanti ignite a blaze of misunderstanding that engulfs their close-knit family. Spurred by Jaggan's treacherous suggestion, Kishan contemplates a second marriage to Tulsi, severing his ties with Shanti, a decision that threatens to cleave their family apart. As the controversy casts a long shadow over their lives, the audience is left to ponder - will love triumph over deception? Will Shambhu and Tulsi find their way to each other, or will their futures be determined by the whispering winds of scandal? "Aanchal" weaves a poignant tale of love, sacrifice, and the indomitable strength of familial bonds, tested by the fires of societal prejudice and personal sacrifice. It is a riveting exploration of the complexities of human relationships, set against the backdrop of a community caught in the crosswinds of tradition and change.
