Noorie

(1979)

Yusuf Fakir Mohammed (Farooq Shaikh) lives in scenic Kashmir valley, and is madly in love with a lovely young woman named Noorie Nabi (Poonam Dhillon). Noorie also loves but would like him to speak to her father, Ghulam (Iftekhar), about their marriage. Yusuf does muster up enough courage to talk to his prospective father-in-law, but comically ends up discussing everything else except marriage. After he leaves, Noorie subtly explains to her father, who is delighted to have Yusuf as his son-in-law. Ghulam accordingly starts preparation for their marriage. Before the marriage could take place, Ghulam is killed by a falling tree, and the marriage is postponed. Noorie is devastated, and inconsolable. Then family friends persuade both of them to get married, to which they agree. Yusuf is asked by his employer to attend to some work out of town for a couple of days. When Yusuf returns he finds out that Noorie is no longer alive as she committed suicide. In disbelief Yusuf rushes over to where Noorie reportedly committed suicide, but no one is able to locate her body. Yusuf is lead by Noorie's dog, Khairu, who seems to know what really happened to Noorie and her dad, to a conclusion that can only result in a violent confrontation.
