            Meena Kumari as Miss Mary is the surprise package
            The movie is special for one reason - You will get to see the comic and lighter side of Meena Kumari.

            The story is very simple. There is an vacancy for a school and the owner wants a married BA pass couple as school teachers. Arun(Gemini Ganehsan) is unemployed and he along with Mary(Meena Kumari) pose as the married couple to get the job. The employer also have a missing daughter and RK Raju(Kishore Kumar) as the private detective is trying to find where she is. When he see Mary, he is convinced she is the missing daughter.

            The whole movie revolves around this story and there isn't much twist and turn for the movie. But what you will see is an out and out comedy movie. A light movie which can be enjoyed by family altogether.

            You will love Meena Kumari in this avtaar and she is looking extremely beautiful. Kishore Kumar as RK Raju, the detective delivers perfect performance and is able to keep you entertained throughout the movie. Gemini Ganeshan as Arun is a treat to watch.

            The music is very soulful. All songs are lovely and soft.
