[edit] Plot
Produced by Raj Kapoor, Ab Dilli Dur Nahin is the story of a journey in search of justice. Hariram a poor laborer loved his wife and son Rattan so much that he lavished them with all the comforts of life even though it meant being debt-ridden to the village moneylender. Miseries sneaked into Hariram's happy life when he lost his wife. So grief stricken was he that he even lost his job due to poor attendance. Misery drove him to seek solace in alcohol. When drunken Hariram reached home he found his son crying as the evil moneylender had beaten him up. In a fit of rage Hariram went to Sethji's house and nearly killed him but for the timely intervention of Mukunda who also owed Sethji money. Hariram left, but not before threatening to kill Bhola Seth. That night while Hariram was asleep next to where his wife had been cremated Mukunda broke into Sethjis house to steal his valuables. When Sethji tried to nab him he killed Sethji. Hariram was found guilty for this murder and sent to Delhi to await his death sentence. Poor Rattan, not knowing how to save his innocent father chances upon Ghaseeta a pickpocket who had seen Hariram asleep in the crematorium. The police question his credibility. Uneducated Ghaseeta decides to go to Delhi with Rattan to plea Hariram's case before Pt. Nehru. Mukunda fears for his life and follows in pursuit of the child and his witness. Will Rattan be able to save his father before evil Mukunda gets to them? Ab Dilli Dur Nahin's music was composed by Dattaram, lyrics penned by Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri including the popular song "Chun Chun Karti Aayi Chidiya".
