Sign of Marriage (1979) - Also known as Suhaag

Durga and Vikram Singh have been married for years. Vikram has taken to crime in a big way, and as a result has antagonized a rival gangster, Jaggi. Durga gives birth to twins, and Jaggi steals one of them, and sells him to a bootlegger, Pascal. Durga is upset when she finds her son missing, but is devastated when Vikram abandons her. With a lot of difficulty, Durga brings up her son, Kishan, and has given up on finding her other son. Kishan has grown up and is now a dedicated police officer. On the other hand, Pascal has exploited Amit, kept him illiterate, doing petty crime, and alcoholic. This gets him in confrontation with Kishan, but ironically the two settle their differences and become fast friends. Vikram is still alive, and is not aware of his two sons and wife being alive.

Vikram has prospered in a life of crime and lives a hedonistic, self-indulgent lifestyle. When Durga, his wife gives birth to twins, he not only repudiates the children but discards his wife in a public way. One of the twins is stolen by Vikram's arch rival and is brought up by a petty purveyor of bootleg liquor. Kishan, the other twin is raised by Durga to become a responsible law enforcer. A clash of the twins is inevitable since Amit lives a life of petty crime. The plot thickens when the twins fall in love with sisters. One of the sisters is a tawaif - a danseuse who entertains men. Suhag, is a fast paced action story where the underworld, the law enforcers, justice and society come together in a compelling story of intrigue, deceit, loyalty and integrity. Social values of the time - love and sacrifice for a sibling, parent, friend is thematically blended into the story. Will the separated twins meet? How will Vikram Singh react when he finds himself on opposite sides of the law from his twin sons? Will Durga honour her suhag (sacred covenant of marriage) after all these years?
