KUNWAARI(1966) was produced by R.N.Mandloi. S N Tripathi gave a vital contribution in this movie.Not only he gave music,but also wrote the story,screenplay and Dialogues and also acted in the film !

This was a story of Col.Dubey(retd.)-Omprakash- and his 2 daughters Chhaya-Indrani mukherjee and Chandani-Ameeta,who return to India after many years in London,to look after their hugh property.Prakash-Ravindra Kapoor-is appointed a Tutor for the girls to learn Indian culture.Prakash and Chhaya fall in love,elope and get married.Prakash dies of snakebite on wedding night,leaving Chhaya a Kunwaari.

Chhaya gets hooted out of town,goes to Benares,works as a Sarvodaya worker and also joins college.
She falls in love with Timir-Prem Chopda-,but his mother wants him to marry her sister Chandani.So,Chhaya goes away to facilitated their marriage.

The rest of the story details how matters get straightened out and finally,all is well.
Except 2 songs by bhagwat Dutt Mishra,the rest 7 are by Shailendra.The music was good.
