Coolie No. 1 (1995)

In the heart of a vibrant village lives Pandit Shaadiram Gharjore, a respected matchmaker with a knack for pairing hearts. However, his reputation plummets when Hoshyaarchand, a wealthy and arrogant father, belittles his efforts and flings him out of his mansion. The offense? Offering a humble suitor for his daughter Malti. Hoshyaarchand desires a son-in-law whose wealth surpasses his own by 40 folds, igniting a spark of retaliation in the humiliated Panditji. As the tale unfolds, Panditji seeks the aid of his friend, Raju, a coolie by profession but a romantic at heart. Having been smitten by Malti's picture, Raju readily agrees to a convoluted plan fueled by love and revenge. He is to masquerade as the son of the richest man in Asia, a facade designed to puncture Hoshyaarchand's inflated ego and win Malti's hand. With a whirlwind of deception and Hoshyaarchand's relentless bootlicking, Malti and Raju tie the knot. Yet, the real challenge begins post-marriage as the couple navigates the treacherous waters of their woven lie. Their lives turn into a high stakes charade, especially when Hoshyaarchand begins to harbor suspicions about Raju's true identity. The plot thickens when Raju, disguised as a tycoon, is caught in his coolie attire at a bus station, leaving viewers at the edge of their seats. "Coolie No. 1" is a delightful cocktail of love, deception, and class conflict, where each sip is a twist and every gulp, an adventure. Tune in to witness whether love can thrive amidst lies, and if humility can deflate arrogance, in this captivating and amusing tale.
