Shubh Yatra

Shubh Yatra

Faced with several debts, a accountant Mohan leaves his village to head to Ahmedabad with his best friend Hardik to get all the documents necessary for going to the United States, where they plan to make money to pay off their debts. They approach a middleman to help them get the passport and tourist visa necessary for them to go to the United States. The middleman claim that the American consulate would prefer to give tourist visas to those who are already married, so the duo is forced to add their "wife's" name while applying for the passport, with Mohan adding his "wife's" name as Saraswativeena Devi. However, Mohan's visa application is rejected, forcing him to remain in Ahmedabad and take up a job as an accountant with a drama troupe, run by Master, while Hardik passes his visa interview and leaves for the United States with the help of a passport officer. With his hard work and sincerity, Mohan soon becomes the favourite employee of Master. Eventually, the drama troupe are invited to perform in the United States, leaving Mohan in a bind as he now needs to get his "wife's" name removed from his passport. He finds out that the only way to do so is to divorce his "wife", but for that, he needs to find a woman who has the name Saraswativeena Devi. He successfully manages to track down a woman with the name, who is a television journalist and tries to convince her to act as his wife and "divorce" him. He also feigns muteness.
