Pati Patni Aur Tawaif review :

Mithun, Farha and Salma Agha formed the titular cast of this Rajkumar Kohli drama. A surprise departure from his regular snakes and revenge actioners, Kohli made this film on suggestion from Salma Agha to remake a Pakistani hit.

Mithun da plays a director who decides to cast a tawaif as heroine in his next film and ends up having a relationship with her. Farha is his ever suffering wife while Sumeet Saigal plays a casanova after Salma in a cameo.

The film had earnest performances from all particularly Salma Agha who looks very pretty in it.

Regarding its box office fate, I think it was an average grosser, not a big hit at all. I had seen it on VHS and caught it today on YouTube after ages.

Regards, Sumeet Nadkarni.
