About the Movie Jhuk Gaya Aasman (1968)
The film begins with Sanjay, played by Rajendra Kumar, who works as a tourist guide in Darjeeling. He leads a simple life and meets Priya Khanna, played by Saira Banu, who has come to Darjeeling from Calcutta.
Sanjay and Priya gradually fall in love. Their relationship is happy until Priya receives news that her father has been arrested. She returns to Calcutta to help secure his release, while Sanjay eventually follows her with hopes of marrying her.
However, tragedy strikes when Sanjay dies in a car accident. After his death, a divine mistake is discovered: Sanjay was not supposed to die at that moment.
Sanjay is given an unusual opportunity to return to Earth. His soul enters the body of Tarun Kumar Saxena, a criminal who looks exactly like him.
The problem is that Tarun has already caused considerable suffering to the people around him. Priya believes that the man standing before her is the same person responsible for her father's imprisonment and refuses to accept his claims.
Sanjay must therefore prove that although he has Tarun's body, he is actually the same loving man she once knew. He attempts to correct Tarun's past mistakes, clear his own name and regain Priya's trust.
The story develops through a mixture of romance, comedy, emotional drama and fantasy, eventually revealing the truth about the mistaken identity.
