Storyline

Plot Summary

In the background of the rise of the International Hare Krishna movement in the 1970s, is a Montreal-based family of the Jaiswals, consisting of mom, dad, son, Prashant, and daughter, Jasbir. Due to irreconciable differences between Mr and Mrs Jaiswal, they separate, leaving Jasbir with dad, and Prashant with his mom. Eventually Prashant and his mom travel to India, leaving father and daughter behind in Montreal. Mr. Jaiswal re-marries, and brings his new wife to live in his home. Years later, Prashant has grown up to be a pilot. He has received a letter from his dad that Jasbir, who had rebelled and left home, is now located in Kathmandu, Nepal, with a group of hippies. Prashant undertakes to find his sister and hopefully get her back to the family. When Prashant lands in Kathmandu he does not find Jasbir, but instead finds Janice, who is indeed his sister with a new name. Janice has no recollection of her childhood, and is always in the company of fellow-hippies. Prashant now needs to bring Jasbir back, but for that he will have to travel deep into the drug induced dark world of Janice. Written by rAjOo (gunwanti@hotmail.com)

Trivia Mumtaz did not want to play the role of Dev Anand's sister and insisted she play the role opposite Dev Anand. Everyone kept telling her that the film was about a brother and sister. Zeenat ended up with the better role causing Mumtaz to be bitter. See more »
Goofs The film opens with two child actors playing the character of the older brother (Prashant) and the younger sister (Janice) separated by just a few years apart. As the characters grow into adults, there is an obvious but a visually significant age gap between Prashant and Janice. Dev Anand (who plays the adult Prashant) was 47 years old whilst Zeenat Aman (who plays the adult Janice) was only 20 during the film's production. This meant that the resulting age gap between the two actors increased from a few years to 27 years apart. See more »
