Bodhu Shundori (Bengali: ওগো বধূ সুন্দরী; English:Hey Beautiful Bride) is a 1981 Bengali
comedy film, directed by Salil Dutta. It was one of the last films of the
iconic Bengali actor Uttam Kumar, who died during production. A lookalike
Prabir Kumar was brought in to stand in for Uttam Kumar during the final
sections of the film, the body double was used in the song "O Daddy O
Mummy"and younger brother Torun Kumar's voice was dubbed in. The music
was composed by Bappi Lahiri. The movie is a Bengali reworking of the story
of Pygmalion, heavily drawing upon the hit British musical My Fair Lady.
Gagan (Uttam Kumar) did not like to socialise while his wife Chitra (Sumitra
Mukherjee) loved attending parties. One day Chitra's friend Lola invited her
to a party. In the meanwhile the Kolkata Book Fair took off and Gagan wanted
to go. Savitri (Moushumi Chatterjee) lived with her uncle from an early age.
One day her uncle sold her for some money from where Savitri escaped and took
shelter in Gagan's house. When Gagan's wife saw Savitri in Gagan's reading
room, she went to her grandfather's house. Gagan and Abalakanta (Santosh
Dutta) helped Savitri learn etiquette and the ways of genteel society. One day
Gagan thought of an alliance between Savitri and Abalakanta. But Savitri did
not agree to marry Abalakanta. In the meanwhile Sandip (Ranjit Mallick) came
and was confused on seeing Savitri. Gagan then realised about their love. So
he arranged for Sandip and Savitri's marriage in his house. But Chitra's
servant gave the information to her that Gagan was getting married to
Savitri. So Chitra came to the house with her grandfather. Finally Chitra
realised that the bridegroom was her brother Sandip. The film thus ends on a
happy note.
