Barsaat is a sweet poignant story about love. Love, which comes like rain, bringing with it, hope, life and the promise of new beginnings. The film revolves around Pran (Raj Kapoor), a quietly intense poet for whom the only universal truth is love, and his best friend Gopal (Premnath), a devil-may-care rolling stone, rolling from one moment to another, collecting nothing but his own personnel enjoyment - at any cost, even that of a mother’s heart. Both fall in love. Pran’s love is true and deep and pure for Reshma (Nargis). Gopal’s love, on the other hand is nothing but a careless dalliance, a passing fancy. Ultimately love conquers all and triumphs, in life and even in death.
