Gharwali Baharwali (2025), directed by David Dhawan, is a Hindi-language comedy-drama that explores the complexities of marriage, family expectations, and unintended consequences. The story follows Arun Verma (Anil Kapoor), who is happily married to Kaajal (Raveena Tandon). Their marital bliss is overshadowed by the absence of children, which deeply concerns Arun’s father, Hiralal (Kader Khan), who yearns for a grandchild. Under pressure, Arun travels to Nepal, where, due to a misunderstanding orchestrated by his friend Jumbo (Satish Kaushik), he inadvertently marries Manisha (Rambha). Upon returning to India, Arun conceals this second marriage, especially after Kaajal’s compassion leads Hiralal to abandon his insistence on a second marriage. However, complications arise when Manisha becomes pregnant, and Arun devises a plan for Kaajal to unknowingly adopt his biological child.

As the narrative unfolds, Kaajal’s suspicions grow, leading to the revelation of Arun’s secret. The ensuing turmoil challenges the family’s dynamics, culminating in a confrontation where Arun must choose between his two wives. The film delves into themes of honesty, responsibility, and the societal pressures surrounding progeny. With a blend of humor and drama, Gharwali Baharwali offers a poignant look at the lengths one might go to fulfill familial obligations, and the personal sacrifices entailed therein.
