News comes that Leila Desai, the New Theatre artiste is expected to go on a dance tour to the Punjab. Quite a natural evolution after film popularity.

Mohan Pictures of Andheri are producing some queer pictures. The one that is on now is called "Chabukwalli". The sequel to it will be "Cyclewalli". After the 'whip' the 'cycle' is a useful instrument to reduce space. Why not begin another one called "Nakharewalli".

All of a sudden Proprietor Chimanlal is summoned back from Bangalore or Hyderabad wherever he is at the time and in an atmosphere of whispers and knowing smiles, the old proprietor goes to work to set things 'right' and soon comes out 'victorious' after giving old Mehboob a rise of a couple of hundreds. And then starts the next picture.
