Three Mahesh Jaitlys are found in the telephone directory. While welding some parts of a bridge Peter (OP Ralhan) overhears a man saying to a woman, while holding hands "soon you will be Mrs Mahesh Jaitly. I have devised a good plan to kill Mrs Jaitley and you will soon be the new Mrs. Mahesh Jaitly". This takes Peter, his fiancée and foster mother on a suspenseful journey of participation in the lives of the three Mahesh Jaitly couples. The denouement begins when Peter, in an attempt to uncover the real (potential) killer traps one of the Maheses (Kabir Bedi)into a murder deal. For lovers of Hindustani cinema, this is highly recommended. The thought one is left with is, what does a good citizen do when s/he hears or sees some potential criminal activity.

A welder working late at night on a bridge overhears a a man tell his girlfriend of his impending plan to murder his wife Mrs jeitley!... The welder rahlan calls all 3 jeitleys in the telephone directory warning them. all 3 households have motives for murder...Zeenat Aman makes her debut in a minor role, but one look at her and its obvious shes a star of the future.A young kabir bedi also makes his debut.O P Rahlan has a great touch as a director, loved his previous movie talaash too. Wonder where he disappeared to.very interesting premise, a must watch. almost hitchockian theme.
