![]() However an avalanche hits his group and it is known that all the group members have lost their lives. ![]() Amar heads for a mountaineering expedition after whose completion, he is to marry Somna. The love of Amar and Somna leads to their physical intimacy and Somna's pregnancy. One of his students is Amar (Sanjay) who falls in love with a local girl - Somna (Saadhana) who lives with her widowed mother - Leela (Durga Khote). To give a meaning to his life, he starts a mountaineering school in the Himalayan region. The story of Ek Phool Do Maali (one flower, two gardeners) starts with Kailash (Balraaj Saahni) who loses his complete family in a mishap and becomes completely lonely. Ek Phool Do Maali (1969) is such a movie only which has gone a couple of notches above many other similar movies due to good direction, good acting, good music and beautiful locations of the Himalayas. And so, Bollywood presented a plethora of movies whose theme was an unmarried girl's pregnancy and her giving birth of a child whose father is not there to render his name to the newborn. Naive and innocent girls falling in love with guys and then surrendering physically to them out of sheer love in their hearts and visualizing them to be their brides in future, suffered like anything in that era. Till the beginning of the decade of seventies, abortion was illegal in India and therefore, the trouble of pregnancy without marriage was ticklish to handle.
