Khatta Meetha

Khatta Meetha

Sachin Tichkule is a struggling Maharashtrian contractor in the bylanes of Phaltan, a small town in the district of Satara, who dreams big but has no chance of his dreams coming true as he doesn't have any money to bribe the bureaucracy. His family has lost faith in him, telling him to earn money through honest means. To make matters worse, the new Municipal Commissioner turns out to be his ex-girlfriend, Gehna Ganpule, who now hates him due to his wayward ways. When Sachin meets Gehna in her office, a flashback reveals that Sachin was an honest college student who was an ardent follower of Gandhian principles. His brothers-in-law Trigun Fatak, Suhas Vichare, and his elder brother Harish Tichkule were all responsible for a bridge collapse resulting in many fatalities and were helped by a politician named Sanjay Rana. After putting the blame of the mishap on their driver, Vishwas Rao, they killed him, fearing he would reveal the truth. Meanwhile, Sanjay's lustful eyes fall on Sachin's sister Anjali. Sachin warns him to keep away from Anjali and slaps him. Meanwhile, a journalist named Azad Bhagat wants justice as his family was killed in that accident. Anjali is betrothed to Sanjay, unbeknownst to Sachin. When he confronts his father Ramakant Tichkule as to how the marriage is finalized to an evil man without his knowledge, he reprimands Sachin, saying he has no right to say anything as he has no money to marry his sister off.
