Saajan Chale Sasural is a 1996 Bollywood comedy film starring Govinda, Karisma Kapoor, Tabu, Kader Khan and Satish Kaushik. It was directed by David Dhawan. It is a remake of the Tamil movie Veera (1994), which in turn was a remake of the Telugu movie Allari Mogudu. A French dubbing parody of this movie called New Délire was released in 2007.
Shyamsunder (Govinda) is a naive villager who has a great interest in music. He travels to the city, making friends with Muthuswami (Satish Kaushik), a South Indian tabla player. The president of the TIPS cassette company, Khurana (Kader Khan), is impressed with his musical abilities and promotes him to a high position. As he goes back to repay his debts in the village he receives tragic news of the death of his wife Pooja (Karisma Kapoor) has died in a flood. He then marries Khurana's daughter Divya (Tabu). When Khurana has a heart attack, he finds his "presumed dead" wife Pooja in the hospital. He then has to fool his two wives, even if it includes leading a double life to make sure Pooja and Divya don't discover he has married both of them.
