The only difference will be the route the movie will take to help the hero reach his enlightenment about his love for the lady in question.

In the 70s Brij Sadanah directed a string of movies after his “Victoria No. 203” became a hit. Almost all his subsequent movies had Pran and Ashok Kumar in central roles with the hero himself being of secondary importance.
