Plot

edit

Lakhon Me Ek centers on Bhola (Mehmood), who struggles to survive by running errands in a Bombay chawl. Despite his constant efforts, he finds it difficult to make ends meet and often pleads with residents for food in exchange for his work, facing frequent rejection.

Sher Singh, who has a soft spot for Bhola, and Dindayal provide him with some support. Leela, a demanding senior citizen, is the mother of Gauri (Radha Saluja). When Gauri arrives at the chawl, she finds comfort and companionship with Bhola.

Bhola's life is a balancing act between managing various chores and pursuing his studies, with his education sponsored by a kind-hearted professor (David). He longs for care and affection, which he receives from Gauri, who is drawn to his simple way of life.

The story takes a dramatic turn when a wealthy man (Madan Puri) arrives from Singapore, claiming that Bhola is his son and that he has come to offer him his name and inheritance.
