==Plot==
The plot follows the general outline of ''[[Some Like it Hot]]''. Two out-of-work musicians (Rishi Kapoor and Paintal) witness a murder and are spotted by the villains. In order to save themselves, they decide to disguise themselves as girls and hop on to a train to Kashmir with other girls in a singing band, where they met Neetu Singh, Bindoo and Asrani. The plot twists when band manager [[Rajindernath]] falls in love with the 'girl' Paintal, and Rishi Kapoor tries to impress Neetu Singh by pretending to be an oil tycoon named Esso [A popular oil marketing firm). At the end of the movie, the male musicians' real identities are revealed. However, the romantic pairs remain intact by the end credits, including Rajindernath and Paintal. The movie ends with the same line as ''Some Like it Hot'': "Nobody's perfect!"
