Brahmachari is a 1968 Indian romantic comedy film, directed by Bhappi Sonie and produced by G. P. Sippy. The film stars Shammi Kapoor, Rajshree, Pran, Mumtaz, Jagdeep, Sachin and Asit Sen. The music for the film was composed by Shankar-Jaikishan with lyrics provided by Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri. The story of Brahmachari revolves around the character of Pran Sikand, played by Shammi Kapoor, who is a carefree and happy-go-lucky young man. He lives in a hostel and is known for his playful personality, always flirting with the girls in the hostel but never committing to a serious relationship. He is a bachelor who has no intention of getting married but eventually falls in love with the character played by Rajshree.

Rajshree plays a young woman who comes from a wealthy family and has just returned from abroad. She is impressed by Pran's carefree and easy-going nature, but finds it difficult to convince him to give up his bachelorhood and settle down with her. Pran, on the other hand, begins to experience a change in his personality as he falls more deeply in love with her.

Pran is also a philanthropist who spends most of his time helping others. He runs an orphanage and works with mentally challenged children. The film shows how his love for Rajshree and his desire to help others eventually lead him to embrace responsibility and commit to a serious relationship.

Pran's happy-go-lucky nature comes to a halt when he discovers that Rajshree is already engaged to someone else. However, he does not give up on his love and tries his best to win her heart. An interesting twist to the story comes when he discovers that Rajshree's fiancé is none other than his own father, played by Pran.

Pran's father abandoned him and his mother when he was young, and he resents him for it. Pran confronts his father, but ultimately forgives him and decides to accept Rajshree as his step-mother. The film ends with Pran and Rajshree getting married, with all of Pran's friends and the children from his orphanage in attendance.

Brahmachari is a film that mixes comedy, romance and social commentary. It highlights the importance of helping others and embracing responsibility. The film is known for its catchy songs, elaborate dance sequences and the charismatic performances of Shammi Kapoor and Rajshree.

In addition to its entertainment value, Brahmachari also marked a turning point in Kapoor's career, as it was one of the last films in which he played the role of the carefree and frivolous young man. He would go on to take on more serious and mature roles in subsequent films.

Overall, Brahmachari is a fun and entertaining film that is still enjoyed by audiences today. Its enduring popularity is a testament to the talent of its cast and crew, and the timeless quality of its story.
