Do Paise Ki Dhoop, Chaar Aane Ki Baarish

Juhi is an aging prostitute whose son Kaku requires a wheelchair. She finds it challenging to take care of him with the limited number of customers that now find her attractive. Debu, a not-so-successful lyricist, is dumped by his boyfriend, and is out on streets. These characters, in need of money and love, bump into each other, after which their lives take a similar direction. Their relationships, born out of mutual needs, change their perceptions about each other, which in turn brings a change in them—finally, a sunny day after days of merciless downpour.^[3]

Chatterji of The Citizen called the film "niche" while praising the performances of three principal characters stating, "But the cream and the cake go to the three actors".^[8]
