Maalamaal

Raj lives in a slum. Large sums of money have never passed through his hands. One day he gets unexpected news. A fortune has come to him from his grandfather. The inheritance covers a company and property. Its worth is measured in billions. Raj goes happily to take possession of it. There he learns of a condition in the will. Before he can have the inheritance he has to spend money. He must spend three hundred million rupees within thirty days. If he fails he loses the whole inheritance. For a man who has never held a thousand rupees, this is not easy. It works out at ten million a day. Raj starts looking for ways to do it. Naseeruddin Shah and Poonam Dhillon appear in the hundred and thirty nine minute film, an Indian production Kawal Sharma finished in 1988.
