[edit] Story
Satte Pe Satta is the story of seven brothers living on a large farmhouse. The first half of the movie shows the life of the brothers who grew up under the helm of their oldest brother Ravi (Amitabh Bachchan). Parentless and lacking basic human manners, these young adults who are also misogynists sustain their livelihood by farming. A sequence of events leads Ravi to fall in love with a nurse named Indu (Hema Malini) whom he eventually marries. The remaining six brothers learn to adjust with new woman in their lives as she does with them, trying to civilize them. Soon enough, they all fall in love with a group of six women (and the feeling is mutual) and shortly things take a turn.
The group of women is a caring troupe for a physically challenged girl named Seema Singh (Ranjeeta) who is still single. She happens to be Ranjit Singh's (Amjad Khan) niece. Since the niece has recently turned twenty one, the uncle wants the niece dead so that he can claim all her wealth. The following part of the movie involves plots by Ranjit Singh to kill his niece, which involve the use of Ravi's look-alike Babu (played again by Amitabh Bachchan) and replacing Ravi with Babu. The brothers come to Ravi's aid once he is kidnapped and replaced by Babu.
The base storyline is copied from the English Seven Brides for Seven Brothers
